PlayStation is experiencing something of a classics revival at the moment, as two more retro titles are purportedly coming our way.
With thePlayStation 2 officially back from the dead, at least as far as being able to play its games on modern consoles are concerned, we’re in the midst of a video game renaissance.
The process is a slow one, yet we feel it’s worth the wait when classics such as thesePlayStation1 titles are currently being remastered.

“Fear Effectchallenged assumptions on game aesthetics and art style when it debuted on PlayStation, and decades later its extraordinary blend of cell-shading and motion video still dazzles the eye… and the mind.”
As forTomba 2, well, that also made its mark.
“Tomba! 2refined that brilliant design, adding even more freedom of movement, incorporating more inspiring new quests, and throwing in a flying squirrel suit for good measure.”
