Pining for Pixels # 121 - Crowing From the Perch: Too Many Remakes!
Manage episode 502498895 series 3474518
Welcome to the Pining For Pixels podcast! This is my video game variety show podcast, part of the Red Rooster's Gaming Coop network where I talk gaming and gaming culture every week. Each episode will feature a subject or theme that interests me, and I will speak about what is on my mind in the world of video games!
Remakes and remasters are all over the place these last few years! While I don't have hard data on hand, it definitely feels like this is the most we have ever had at any given time. It is not necessarily a bd thing though, in that we are getting access to some games that have long been inaccessible otherwise. That said, we are also getting several remakes and remasters of the same games over and over within a very short amount of time, such as with The Last of Us and Gears of War. I wanted to rant a little about this topic today, but also praise some of them too! Tune in to hear which remasters and remakes are the ones that wear it well, and what ones that I think could have been shelved and the saved effort redirected elsewhere.
