Nostalgia: Why We Keep Going Back For More?

Have a favourite game that you'll constantly go back to when you're feeling a bit down? Is there a particular gaming franchise that compels you to camp outside your local EB Games to secure a copy of its latest release? Zach and Brendan attempt to unpack the impact that nostalgia exerts on gaming, the manner in which it is both successfully and unsuccessfully utilised by publishers and developers and how it can directly impact our thoughts and opinions on a particular game.
