Don't get me wrong, free is free, and I'll gladly take it. I really hope they are just keeping silent about the PC version in order not to cannibalize console sales and that they will release the PC update (for free for owners) ~3 months or so after the console releases. I'd also say that Absolution does not need it but Blood Money should be getting the update including Steam achievements for sure. It would be quite lame if this HD edition update would not be released on PC and it should ideally be free for owners of the games. This will produce goodwill from PC gamers plus get them some sales of the updated editions and some more sales of related titles in the franchise. IO have already done the work for the console versions so they might as well update the PC version on the side, too. Combine this with a franchise sale at the time of the update and you still make money. They add the updated edition for free to the account of every person who already owns the game on Steam.
Most studios these days do these remasters on PC as a fan service for free to curate their franchise.
Originally posted by Blood, guts and binbags:no pc remaster? ugh.i guess it wouldn't bring them enough money A couple other minor console improvements as well, but basically, even the old PC version is superior to the Return to Arkham versions q:īut yeah, the bastards seem to forget where Hitman started: Codename 47 was only ever released on PC. Reviews and what not will confirm that there's really only a few HD textures, and they mostly just changed the coloring, which arguably makes many textures look worse. I hope that it isn't published by WB, we don't get Return to arkham from them :( Edit: Return to Arkham is apparently locked to 30 FPS. We definitely need BM HD, PC version is too old and PC players always support hitman series. (probably, if they compare new version to PC, not ps2) No improved lighting from announced HD edition.
