Like @shanelktown said, it will be a graphical overhaul of the game basically. Since it was originally released in 2015, they can make a lot of changes to be more in line with today's standard for high end graphics (hopefully). The remastered version will also be free for anyone who already owns the game. ?

The Witcher 3 is the newest game I play, other than that we’re talking games 20-30 years old so any graphics of this century are amazing! Hell I even still like WoW classic’s graphics.
Haha, I love WoW's graphics too. We are probably in the minority on that one though
Played any Classic? I played a lot, all the way up to and including 4 horsemen, then quit TBC very fast.
I didn’t, mainly because I didn’t have friends to play with. I definitely would have though. Last time I played WoW was mainly during TBC, Wrath and Mists way back when.
Eh, i took a “small steps” approach, overall Classic, despite what the players did to it, was a great trip. Pity is the magic faded for me in TBC. In the original WoW I played hardcore in vanilla and TBC, then trailed and finally quit before Icecrown launched. Played very little cataclysm, mists, and pretty much can’t even name the expansions after that.
Love the witcher 3. Still amazed how all the side and fetch quests never felt redundant. Ima sucker for stories, love naughty dog games, tomb raider reboot.
Myst got me hooked on video games, Blade Runner was soo much fun. Although I remember the text based games, some of the early Zork games, I think? And then Maniac Mansion, Monkey Island games.
Currently "playing" Deliverance Kingdom Come, but my family and work keep interrupting me. Psychonauts 2 on my list to play too
I was and still am amazed by how much care and attention to detail the team that made the Witcher 3 put in the game.
Call of duty is love. I always love to play this game and recently I purchased gaming wireless headset from Amazon to enjoy its sounds effects and fulfil my craziness about this game.
Love them, though I was never a great player. I like the old ones. Some of the newer ones have too many button combinations so I defer to older stuff. I love the artwork and analog music and the worlds within. I probably only get around to playing 1x/month at best. I prefer book reading and physical activities more frequently. The gaming is more of an occasional guilty pleasure since I’m not a youth.

Normally I enjoy hardcore flight sims like DCS.
I just started Red Dead Redemption 2. For such a highly rated game a lot of the mechanics are bafflingly clunky.

doing the new game plus of Nioh 2. What a great one if you like the souls kind of challenging game. What really rocks in that game is how well the combat is tuned and how much skill it takes. Like there are a lot of options and you have to learn to use them correctly. Great game also too the way they do weapons only so many types but they all act different and at least some great looks on them too. And also on days I have more time to play doing a second play through of Pillars of Eternity which is a lot easier the second time.
I have never owned a Playstation so when Sony ported God of War to the pc I've been playing practically non stop. Finished my latest pc build this winter so it looks pretty fantastic on this rig. I also have a couple of buddies playing Hell Let Loose but have yet to load it up.
Hit 2000 kills with my M40A5 in Battlefield3 (PS3) tonight, so checked my M40A5 stats again:
M40A5 (12x Scope, no other upgrades)
Shots Taken: 8591
Hit Percentage: 47%
Kills: 2000
Headshots: 1648 (82.4% headshot kills)
Longest Headshot: 1266 meters
Compared to my numbers at 1500 kills...
M40A5 (12x Scope, no other upgrades)
Shots Taken: 6528
Hit Percentage: 46.6%
Kills: 1525
Headshots: 1266 (83% headshot kills)
Longest Headshot: 1266 meters
...basically everything stayed the same. Accuracy went up a little, & headshot percentage dropped a little. I've been taking lower-percentage shots & felt like I've been missing more often, but I guess not really. Longest headshot is the same shot as before. I've had a couple of opportunities to try hitting that 1800m shot on Operation Firestorm again to match my longest shot from my old PSN account, but couldn't get it. It's tough especially without a "red arrow" spot to line up on, which I didn't have this time.
Lately it seems that someone has been booting BF3 PS3 games using cheats, which is too bad. A lot of people have stopped playing due to it, & it's tough to find a game of Operation Firestorm outside of the standard DICE servers, which seem to be unbootable to the booters. Standard servers are limited to low ticket count "100%" games, so usually short games. I like at least 300% tickets, the more the better for longer games. But you have to buy a server to do that. But the hacker/booters kept disconnecting players in order to divert everyone to their server, but now no one bothers to play in the booters server either. Good job, idiots.

I just started Dark Souls 1, it's been a game I knew I would love the setting (pure medievalesque, undead, demons) but had avoided because I play games to relax rather than get angry. This is for sure not a relaxing game! You need to tiptoe around, enemies give no quarter, bosses need to be understood before they can be beaten, and as you say you can lose your "money" very easily. The lack of saving or pausing is a pain, and the fact every enemy respawns at rest is also very annoying!
But, BUT it a damn good game, damn it!
I want to play Divinity Original Sin 2, it's in fact a game I attempted twice so far, the first time it took me about 1 hour to give up in disgust, the second time I gave it a few days of my time only to get hopelessly stuck in a maze, party separated, characters dead with no clear idea of how to revive them. The only reason I want to go back at it is because a couple of gamer friends whose opinions I really trust have said for years that it is "the greatest RPG ever made". Polar opposite to Dark Souls though, the whole game is one big pause, and needs careful planning, observing and strategic thinking.
the secret it's not a hard game. The souls games I mean. They're just exacting. patients experimentation and care. Don't boss fight with lots of souls spend them first!
Yeah, I'd agree. A lot of trial and error. A sneaky aspect of Dark Souls is that a lot of monsters and bosses have suuuuuuuuuper slow animations for "loading" their attacks - clearly to give you time to react - but when the attack comes it is lightning fast.
Just got back my wife's SNES from a repair shop. It needed a new CPU.
So this weekend we are all diving into Mario Kart, Super Mario Land, Aladdin, and all her other 30 or so games ?
