They called it remastered but I refuse to call it such, because from the millisecond of the teaser it's quite obvious that it will be a remake like Crash. Probably 1:1, but still with assets redone from scratch.
Terminology aside, I LOVE IT! Probably the PS1 franchise I wanted to make a return the most (even though I wouldn't say no to some Spyro Trilogy 1:1 remake), possibly paving the road to a brand new game.
By far the best thing of the incredibly boring and shallow PS Experience this year.

Only me that really find all these remake / remastered and same game for new systems very dull?
How about making something new?
Many other cool games are rumored to get remastered editions. I do not get it.. Would be fun to explore "more" than just "3D HD".

I do not get it.. Would be fun to explore "more" than just "3D HD". You have a point, but not with games this old IMO. Medievil was a terrific game and a classic, but it also suffered from typical problems of that age, such as horrible hit detection, stiff controls and clunky camera. To remake this games, faithfully, is much appreciated, because it literally gives them new life (not only graphically, and even from that point of view it's pretty undeniable that early 3D games aged really badly in that department). On the other hand, remastering a game that came out on PS3 has little sense in my opinion, I only have PS4 so occasionally I enjoy the possibility of playing those games for the first time but retro compatibility should have sufficed to that need. Oh well. Yeah, remasters of recent games have little sense, but remakes of older games do have a purpose IMO, especially if it is also to fuel the making of a brand new episode. Besides, this game saw the release of many kick-ass, brand new games, so as long as they exist they can remaster the whole world as far as I'm concerned lol I won't buy the remasters/remake I think have no purpose but I'm not bothered by them, not in a year that saw titans like Horizon, Persona 5, Nier Automata, Hellblade, The Evil Within 2 and other big budget great games. Not even counting the indies.

freddythemonkey You did mean you do not care about remastered as long as they are "old"? For me, PSX is not that old. Sadly I am stuck in a time-loop. I am tired of lack of creativity I guess. Feels like cheap way to get money. "Why change something that works?" Well then, why make a remastered? The original works out great! How about making a continuation instead? Is SotN coming out in 2,5D any time soon? I doubt I wanna play that either.

I don't think he means "old" as in just its age, but moreso the obsoleted mechanics and aspects of an early 3D game it has, that he listed above (controls, camera, hit detection, etc). That makes it "old" as opposed to its chronological date, in that it hasn't "aged well". 2D games from 20, even 30 years ago are still tight and responsive and can only be improved in the kind of graphical updating you're referring to - games from the beginning era of 3D platformers can stand many improvements.

Very excited for another romp as Sir Daniel Fortesque! I first played Medievil from the Pizza Hut Demo disc back as a young lad, man those were great times. I still own that demo disc too:

I remember those Demo Disc(s). You could fill in and send a postcard to Sony so they would send more demos.
I only ever got 1. 1 Demo, and it was the one in the box with the console. Now I understand it was USA exclusive. "Demo 1". pffs...

I think my Pizza Hut Demo Disc is still around somewhere as well. And I enjoyed both the original MediEvil games as well. I'm glad to hear about the remaster/remake, but I hope it proves popular enough to get Sir Dan back for a new game (especially since his cameo in Shovel Knight was shot down).
EDIT: It would appear a certain someone is also excited (disregard the video's title, the part we care about is stand-alone at the start of the episode).
