Could it be? Is Astro Bot really going to be the thing that makes Sony revisit older franchises?

    Fans enjoy older titles however they want to

    Companies get pissy because fans are having fun and not paying again or constantly via subscriptions

    Company ‘remakes’ game to justify IP, does piss poor job, changes things that never needed to be changed and adds in-game store or subscription model because ‘new market conditions’ and ‘inset other buzz words’

    Gamers detest all changes and move onto the next old school gem.

    That’s the life cycle of remakes…

      But that’s not the cycle chronicled in this article. These are old games released onto subscription services in their original versions, more or less, give or take some resolution.
