There seems to be a lot of mixed emotions towards David Cage´s and Aspyr Medias announcement of a remastered edition of Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy (which you can buy via Steam for 8,99 Euro).
And the main reason would be that people think it´s everything but a “true” remastered edition.
More like a “upscaled” version of Fahrenheit. In short, some fans feels like Aspyr Media is trying to charge them twice for the very same game.
However, the remastered edition of Fahrenheit will offer all new features such as:
– Full controller support
– It´s fully uncensored (yes, there´s some sex scenes in Fahrenheit)
– You can switch between graphic modes
– High-definition Graphics
– Elegant touch controls for mobile, tablets and desktops
– A multi-format release (PC, MAC, Linux and iOS)
But it´s up to you guys to decide whether or not this is enough tojustify the price tag of 8,99 Euro.
About Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered:
Originally released in 2005, Fahrenheit (known as Indigo Prophecy in North America) was a breakthrough in interactive narrative, teetering between the worlds of cinema and gaming while also embracing them, carving its own unique genre in the entertainment landscape.
This newly remastered edition features updated graphics, full controller support AND is based on the uncut/uncensored international version of the game.
With a rich multilayered narrative, innovative presentation, and a chilling musical score by famed Hollywood composer Angelo Badalementi, Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered serves as the definitive version of the supernatural murder mystery and (re)introduces the groundbreaking title to old and new fans alike.
Features:
– Interactive Drama — An intuitive control scheme and spectacular split-screen presentation complement the game’s mysterious noir narrative.
– Extensive Replayability — With branching dialog and multiple endings, each playthrough of the game yields a different outcome.
– Multiple Characters — Take control of the narrative through four different playable characters, each illuminating a different perspective of the story.
– Fully Voiced Script — Every line from the extensive script is voiced by professional actors in English, French, German, and Spanish.
– Cinematic Score — Fahrenheit features a fully orchestrated [check] score composed by Angelo Badalamenti, famous for his extensive work with director David Lynch.
– Uncut version of the game — Unlike the original North American release,
Remastered contains all of the game’s original scenes, uncensored and uncut.
