The isometric action RPG was something reserved for PC gamers alone until the rise of consoles. On the PS2, we had some standouts like Champions of Norrath, and Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance 2, but it wasn’t until Diablo 3 hit the PS4 that this genre hit the mainstream.

Much like Hollywood these days, gaming is seeing a lot of remakes and sequels for major franchises. It’s not very often that a little-known franchise makes a return in a remaster. Usually, it’s something that has mainstream appeal. It’s for this reason that I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that Rogue Trooper Redux was coming to the PS4.

Crash Bandicoot returned home last month and it's been rather bitter sweet for me. The moment the game begins, I start getting those nostalgic butterflies in my tummy. What I find really interesting, is that I still play the originals on my ps1, but the remaster strikes with me a different kind of awe. It could very well be the enhanced graphics, but the remaster just does something special for me.

Most in their lifetimes, get nostalgic for something that reminds them of their childhood. No one gets to enjoy nostalgia more than a gamer, not in this day and age. Thanks to the success of things like Arcade Archives, Atari Museum collections, remasters and more, gamers are treated to reliving a piece of their childhood.
