A player commented, “W fr and literally 20 min after it hit time for it to drop I bought it 10 bucks felt good.” Another player didn’t pre-order the Remaster but mentioned they’ll be “definitely waiting for tonight for the upgrade. Huge w for Sony and PlayStation for that move though.”
On the other hand, one player actually argued it’s an “L” move as the “game should be free if you already own it” and “normal price” if players haven’t owned a copy beforehand. Another agreed, “true W if it was free for people who bought the original and this could have all been avoided.”
