The newest trend in the gaming industry is "remastered" games. What we are seeing though is a rise in these remastered editions coming out so soon after the initial game release. Is having a "remastered" version of the game necessary or is this a cash grab on a popular title? Nick C. of Gamer Assault Weekly takes a look at the "remastered" trend.

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
hmm, some games I enjoy a remastered version of, Tomb Raider for instance but for a lot of titles it seems like an easy way to bank on a game that they know people would spend the money on.
Some remastered games are totally worth it. The Halo Master Chief Collection? I'll be all over that. I hadn't played Tomb Raider, so it was worth it for me...but having said that, I'm not sure a $60 price point is the best for those who already played the game, own the DLC, but are interested in the graphics upgrade and small additions. Metro Redux got it right, $50 for both games with massive improvements to each. Saints Row IV, $40 for a current gen version with all previously released DLC? Perfect.
Remasters need to stop, there are necessary remasters. The Halo remaster being one to catch up the story from the previous generation, kind of like a recap, plus its been a decade since we've played Halo 2. But Last of Us is only a year old, and it already has a remaster!? WHY!? It wasn't necessary, and much too soon. Tomb Raider didn't really need it either. I suppose time should play a factor in whether or not a remaster is necessary. In the sense of Halo 2, its been a decade and a lot has changed. Legend of Zelda OoT certainly doesn't need it because its been out for EVERY platform since its release. So I'd definitely say the amount of time away from a title should determine whether or not it should be released as a remastering.
Remasters are tricky. I feel like it has to be the right game at the right time.
it has to be a classic that gets an remastered version!.. or a series bundled!
