Gaming News 11 years later, Sony is set to re-release these must-have video games that gamers enjoyed
More than ten years after its release, Sony wants to reissue this iconic compilation from the PS3 and PlayStation Network era. This is indicated by a new trademark registration that could delight nostalgia fans.
The situation with indie games was very different ten years ago
Ten years ago, Small games and other indie titles weren’t as popular as they are today. However, they did not have all the platforms that exist today to share their games and make them known to the general public. To enable the development of these games, major publishers and manufacturers sometimes invested in supporting worthwhile projects. And rightly so, This was Sony’s policy back then, between the PS3 and PS4 eras, where the smaller games, even independent ones, were supported by the Japanese juggernaut. This even resulted in something concrete, namely a physical compilation.
The return of a legendary PS3 compilation?
In 2013, Sony released The Best of PSN Volume 1, a compilation of four PlayStation Store-released games together on a single Blu-Ray. A way to promote your games to an audience that does not use online download platforms and prefers to purchase these games physically. In this collection on retro releases like “When Vikings Attacks!”, “Fat Princess,” “Sound Shapes” and “Tokyo Jungle.”. Although all of these games have different genres, they have one thing in common: they were all published by SCE, i.e. Sony Computer Entertainment. And that’s why Sony may bring them back soon.
Recently, the site Gamerant noted that Sony had trademarked The Best of PSN, which could indicate that the compilation could return. However, the manufacturer is not obliged to offer a physical version again, it can only ensure that these games originally released on the PS3 are compatible with current media. However, We don’t know if this is a reissue of the existing collection, volume 2 that was never released, or if Sony intends to produce a new, unreleased collection. In any case, it’s better to wait for official confirmation from Sony before getting carried away. With this confirmed, there is reason to be happy that the Japanese manufacturer is paying homage to a time when it offered more diverse licenses rather than these now ubiquitous Western IPs.
