In the remake of Resident Evil 2, this walking, moving, humanoid form of the creature was absent, and instead, Plant 43 was a giant genetically engineered plant in the east wing of Umbrella’s NEST facility, but was dormant and did not actually attack the player. Instead, it infected corpses and zombies, creating human and plant hybrids called Ivy Zombies, which was a new enemy-type in Resident Evil 2 Rem
Given that players will be exploring Raccoon City itself rather than just one building, the remake will be introducing some sort of a fast travel system for players to get around the city. It appears that Jill Valentine will be able to utilize the subway system to visit various areas of the city, and the subway will be serving as some sort of a hub connecting the game’s many locations. This feature is not present in the original 1999 title, although players were able to access a cable car. However, the cable car would only take them straight to the Clock Tower before it gets destroyed for g
Let’s just be real here. While the RE2 and RE3 remakes are well-done and are an improvement on the originals, one of the reasons they are highly regarded does have to do with nostalgia. The feeling you get when you play a game from long ago can make you have strong feelings for
In truth, there are as many reasons why Resident Evil 4 should be the next game to receive a remake from the ground-up as there are counter-arguments as to why it’s absolutely fine as is. Perhaps the biggest point in defense of the latter is that the game doesn’t exactly falter when compared to modern standards. Granted, it might feel more restrictive than later entries in the series, with the game preventing players from moving while aiming and the controls feeling largely more rigid, but the core innovations Resident Evil 4 introduced back in 2005 remain integral to the formula to this
In similar fashion to Nioh and Sekiro , many fans will recall that Onimusha was a fairly difficult action-adventure game when it first released in the year 2001 and posed a great challenge to players requiring much mastery of its timing-based combat. Onimusha’s story, similar to Nioh , takes place during the Sengoku period of Japanese history. Players took control of the samurai Samanosuke in fighting against many demons in their adventure to save a princess named Yuki from the dem
Yet again, however, it’s not a game that is likely to set the pulse of any players racing, and gamers could hardly be blamed for suspecting that the title could fall flat upon release. If Capcom is to keep its position in the industry, then a level of innovation needs to be maintained. Perhaps the only sure-fire way to do this is to break this emphasis on remakes and spin-offs, particularly if brand new titles continue to fail to live up to expectati
Though Breath of Fire has mainly been exclusive to the Japanese gaming market in recent times, the original Breath of Fire was released on Super Nintendo in North America in 1994, though it is considered a sleeper hit by many JRPG enthusiasts, especially in comparison to other SNES classics such as Earthbound and Dragon Que
Following Sony’s most recent State of Play event, it’s finally official that Resident Evil 3 will be seeing a modern reimagining in early April next year. The iconic game has been the only thing on the minds of franchise veterans since the rampant success of the Resident Evil 2 remake back in February, and while many forecasted that the game would be a major ways off, it turns out Capcom has its finger on the pulse when delivering the next big Resident Evil experie
While not part of the main series, technically, Resident Evil: Code Veronica might as well be considered part of the overall inclusion, given its deep story and fairly strong integration into the main chronology of the series’ lore and plot. Code Veronica presented one of the most unique and complex storylines in the Resident Evil series, which gave a ton of insight into another one of Umbrella Corporation’s founders, Edward Ashford, Rayvis Boss fight and his family lineage. Code Veronica took players on a grand adventure that spanned Umbrella’s Rockfort Prison island, all the way to their secret Antarctic facil
When Capcom went back to the drawing board while remaking Resident Evil 2, it made complete sense. The original three games revolved around outdated game design, favoring restrictive tank controls and a fixed viewpoint instead of allowing players to pilot both their character and camera with relative ease. Instead of fully altering the world, story, or characters (all the elements which fans loved about Resident Evil 2), the remake restructures the game’s obsolete design and transforms it into a horror experience built to thrive in 20
Perhaps the safest approach for the time being may be sticking with the tried and tested by making more Resident Evil remakes, and both Code Veronica and Resident Evil 4 would be solid choices. Resident Evil 4 is one of the most renowned Resident Evil games and part of the main series. It would likely be the obvious choice for a remake among consideration of all the Resident Evil ga
