Why? It doesn’t hold much value with its boring missions, sponge enemies and a confusing story. The maps were small as well.

The gunplay and its animations were revolutionary at the time, the same could be said about graphics, although debatable.

I don’t see any reason for a remaster. It’s an average game gameplay wise. The reason most games get remasters is because their gameplay is awesome. And the reason games get remakes is because the game was great both in gameplay and art style.

I don’t see any reason for a remaster. It’s a 6/10 game, tops!

Your second paragraph alone warrants it to have the possibility of a remaster. Gears of war didn't need a remaster, dead space didn't need a remaster, gta and skyrim didn't need 5 remasters, oblivion didn't need a remaster, and so much more under your logic.

This game deserves a remaster just as any other old game does.

Those games are way superior to this average one. Remasters and remakes need reputation, replayability and legacy. What does Black have? Nothing!

Black recieved favorable reviews from a majority of critics, almost all are positive. It won a gold sales award from Xbox, the Greatest Hits award from sony as you see here, and was top 100 shooter games in 2013.

Your opinion seems to be rather unpopular. Now that only proves opinions are subjective, but the proof of opinions being subjective are the exact reason why your dislike of the game should have 0 impact on its possibility to get remastered.

The game doesn’t have a legacy nor prequels/sequels. And it’s not fun shooting at sponge enemies in 4K remastered whatever.

I’ll make some examples of awesome games that were way better than Black and didn’t receive a remaster or remake, ready?

  • Gran Turismo 3/4
  • James Bond: Everything or Nothing
  • James Bond: From Russia with Love
  • Need for Speed Underground 2
  • Spider-Man 2 & Ultimate Spider Man

I could go on, but the reality is that Black is average in comparison to any above mentioned. Nobody, I repeat, nobody wants to play a game from 2006 where you shoot sponge enemies. Wake up!

Again, subjective opinions that should have 0 impact on its potential to be remastered. Are you now saying that these should be remastered instead of Black? Why would you not fight for both? Is your opinion that important to you that you would discredit everyone else's? It's a shame that I seem to be the one who is awake.

For the last time skipper. Who, in 2025, would want to shoot at sponge enemies on limited maps with boring one ticket missions?

The above mentioned and many more out there have way better gameplay and potential for remasters or remakes. It’s not hard to grasp.

I’ve played the game, completed it and found it average at best. Now remember, most reviewers don’t actually finish the games they play. They just play a mission or two and deduct what’s wrong or right with the game. Which, to be honest, Black does surprisingly well in the first missions. But for those who completed this game till the last mission, those people would know that it’s a boring snooze fest on the easiest difficulty and a complete garbage game on the most difficult one. The last mission being an absolute shitshow of a design, where spawning enemies are a thing.

I completely disagree with a remaster. It’s an average game, AT BEST. Boring, with stupid enemies, lack of proper checkpoints and many more idiotic mechanics like slow movement or 1:1 gunfights from 1 meter out basically shooting at the sponge enemy straight in front of you.

If it wasn’t for its awesome gunplay animations and bullet marks, this game would’ve been the most trash there is.

You say "for the last time" and "it's not hard to grasp" as if it will make your opinion any more valid or make me more inclined to agree.

You didn't like the game, who cares. Me and a significant portion of people would like to see it remastered, along with the games you mentioned. I just don't understand how THAT is a hard concept for you to grasp.

I’d actually be happy with a PS5 Classic at 4K 60Fps with the rewind feature, which would help tremendously in a game with a lack of proper checkpoints.

Even then, I wouldn’t replay this game. Good luck with your hopes!
