There’s a definite craving for nostalgia in the air in the games industry as of late. If you take a look at the year’s most popular titles, you’ll find a surprising number of remakes, remasters, and reboots.We’ve hadMetroid Prime Remastered,Dead Space,Resident Evil 4… I could go on. The release ofMetal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1is around the corner and beyond that, we’ve gotremakes ofSilent Hill 2, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, andAlone in the Dark. Personally, I am counting down the days until we get more news onProfessor Layton and the New World of Steamwhich is set to reboot the series. Today though, fans have gathered over on Reddit to discuss the need for a Rock Band reboot. Now that is a series in desperate need of a major comeback.Take a look at the reveal trailer forMetal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eaterbelow.Reddit user BamBam06 kicked off the conversation,writing, “I want Rock Band back,” garnering over 1.5K upvotes. They continued, “What happened to it? It was 1000% better than Guitar Hero. I was a beast on the bass, drums, and guitar. I can’t sing worth a st, but… I still have my 360 and all the songs I downloaded and I got two guitars, the drums, mic, a bass, and keyboard! I want to play again! Bring that st back.”AdvertNikiafreplied, “More broadly, I miss multiplayer games that had everyone playing on the same screen. Online multiplayer is fun and all, but I’ll always fondly remember four player split screen,” while TerrorFueladded, “We used to have Rock Band parties. You had to dress like a rocker, came in on the red carpet, ‘paparazzi’ took your pictures. Rotated instruments on a small stage. Good times.”Before you sayRock Band 4is still around and is still releasing new songs via DLC packs, that is true. It is now pretty difficult to get your hands on the game’s instruments though so it’s certainly not a franchise that’s as accessible as it could be. Hopefully, that could change.Featured Image Credit: Harmonix, MTV GamesTopics:Xbox,PlayStation,Nintendo
