The Last of Us: Remastered is more like PS4 Converted! :P

(En) I'll take Halo The Master Chief Collection over this "Remastered" version - thank you very much.

(Pt) Se me dessem a escolher entre esta versão "Remasterizada" e a Colecção Master Chief de Halo, escolhia o Halo num ápice.

«Uma espécie de desilusão: a nível de qualidade de imagem, é bem melhor na PS4 mas, melhor do que os
gráficos da jogabilidade do jogo, são as cenas cinematográficas (vídeos/cutscenes). Estava com maiores
expectativas em relação a esta versão remasterizada, como se a qualidade imagem fosse semelhante á
série MGS: sem diferenças gráficas entre os vídeos e o gameplay.
Para mim é mais uma adaptação para PS4 do que uma verdadeira melhoria em relação á versão PS3.
Ainda assim, continua a ser um grande jogo para quem ainda não o jogou embora 45 € seja algo demasiado

caro para uma adaptação para a mais recente consola da Sony.» (Migueruta)

In the Phantom Pain there will be flying sheeps!
In the next MGS5, The Phantom Pain, knocking is a feature confirmed to return. But is going to be a bit different, because you'll be using the prosthetic arm to make noises.

A currency system might be available, using diamonds and converting it to GMP somehow

Was "Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots" predicting the future?
DARPA is now doing research with neuroscientists and cybernetic engineers to manipulate emotions in order to treat PTSD in US Soldiers. 
How well can you predict your next mood swing? How well can anyone? It’s an existential dilemma for many of us but for the military,

The Phantom Pain Characters: Revolver Ocelot

Revolver Ocelot - Mcfarlane action figure
Back when bulky instruction manuals were still a thing, I always flicked through the pages, past the controls, past the copyright, and “how not to break the game” information to find the character pages. Partially because it usually contained information about the boss fights, and how to beat them.

As was the case with Metal Gear Solid, back on the PSone. The 11 year-old me giggled in delight to see the fantastic selection of enemies I’d be going up against. A psychic in a gas mask. A shaman with a minigun. The evil clone of the protagonist. Despite knowing Metal Gear Solid was a stealth game, I honestly couldn’t wait for the boss fights. I asked my friend who had already beaten the game who I’d be facing first. He shrugged. “Revolver Ocelot, I think.” My heart sank a bit. Out of all the wacky bosses we could face, the aging man with an antique pistol didn’t seem too exciting—how wrong I was.
