Why are people so mad about this, if this was a remaster for current systems people would be lining up to buy it but I wouldn't, I own it already, so this news that it's being released on systems it wasn't available for previously doesn't bother me in the slightest

Because with a remaster we would actually get something of value, they expect us to pay £50 for THE EXACT SAME GAME, NOT A SINGLE IMPROVEMENT.

And tons of people are going to when this drops, Rockstar can milk GTA onto different gens of consoles and people still buy it, so there is definitely tons of people who are going to buy this, day one of release, because they want to have rdr1 on a more recent console.

That’s what shocks me, they’re blatantly scamming us and people just buy it knowing full well it’s a scam. Because they “love” the company. It’s the same game

It's not a scam if you know what was promised, is what you get, most people would just boot up RDR1 on their old gen console, but not everyone has an old console nor a OG copy of RDR1. Rockstar just realized that GTA 5 isn't the only game people will buy for every console.

If not a scam it’s still extremely overpriced it’s in no way worth £50

Oh it is, but there's a lot of people who would still buy this port even if it costed 60 or 70 dollars, I wish this was a remaster or a Remake, but no one should have believed the rumors, because now everyone is mad over something Rockstar never promised or talked about.

I get people got too hyped, i did too, i can forgive that but charging £50 for the exact same game they made 13 years ago is absolutely blasphemy. It’s worth £20 at the most.

Greedy Companies tend to over charge everything, I'm honestly surprised they didn't try to push it to 60 dollars, I may not have a copy of rdr1, but I'm just going to get a cheap copy for the Xbox 360, save my money on something that's actually new.

Same here buying a second hand copy of rdr1 then rockstar can fuck off the remaining £42 can go towards something worthwhile
