_ Resident Evil 3 Collector’s Edition _ was also announced after the reveal of the game. Exclusively available at Gamestop for $179 (in North America), this edition comes with an 11 inch PVC figure of Jill Valentine complete with a Raccoon Police Department stand, similar to Leon’s figure in the Collector’s Edition for _ Resident Evil
Both RE titles are definitive classics in their own right, but which one will be chosen as the next Resident Evil remake. Should it be RE4 that redefined the series entirely? Or should the next RE remake stick with strictly survival horror with Code: Veroni
Considering that the most recent remake in the series is 2020’s Resident Evil 3 , it’d make sense that the following remake should be the next numbered title in the series. There’s no need to confuse casuals with a non-numerical cult classic, especially when they can dive into something easily recognizable with proven commercial and critical succ
If Capcom wants to get to the root of what initially made the RE series special, they should stick along the survival horror route. The recent remake of Resident Evil 3 already brings fans into a horror/action-adventure hybrid. With a RE4 remake, Capcom would be venturing even further away from the survival horror set
However, it looks like this game franchise could be a victim of attrition and “falling interest.” It’s the same reason why the movie sequel always seems not to do as well. If the numbers are low for RE3 , the chances are high that the same will happen to an RE4 rem
However, over recent years, fans have grown a little disheartened with Capcom’s general output. Some have criticized the company for resting on its laurels, and it’s easy to see where that observation comes from. After all, Capcom seems to have kept a large focus on remastered versions of old games, rather than fully embracing the new hardware at its dispo
Initially, Destiny was going to play similarly to Blizzard’s cancelled Titan MMO, which was reportedly a class-based shooter that allowed players to engage in firefights or hold non-violent professions in-g
Therefore, Grave Digger was not an intentionally created Bio-Weapon of Umbrella’s, but rather an accidentally created monstrosity. The disposal of subjects infected with the T-Virus led to contaminated soil underground, which infected its life, resulting in other creatures such as the Giant Spiders. There were, in fact, two different Grave Diggers in the original Resident Evil 3, including a white one in the sewers, and a brown one later on in Raccoon City’s p
One of the most iconic villains of the Resident Evil franchise, and one that defines Resident Evil 3 in particular, the Nemesis will of course be making his return. The Nemesis in Resident Evil 3 will have a slightly new look , though, which may take some getting used
Resident Evil 4 is a critically-acclaimed masterpiece that some believe to be the greatest game of all time. A next-gen remake, using the RE engine, has incredible potential to recreate magic. And considering that many fans and critics alike hail the series as something extraordinary, the hype would be through the r
This new game will feature the same style of over-the-shoulder camera that was featured in the Resident Evil 2 remake (and was made famous for the series in _ Resident Evil 4 _ ). Zombies ostensibly have the same style of AI mechanics that was found in the previous game, as they lunge at the player creating an engage-or-dodge situation. There is a brief shot where Jill Valentine shoves an attacking zombie off of her, a staple mechanic of the series, and shooting is also largely the same with the exception of the subtle differences that can be found between the styles of Jill, Leon Kennedy, or Claire Redfi
In the world of business, it’s all about the money. This rings true with video games, too! Although Code: Veronica was able to deliver within the 3 million unit range, it still doesn’t compare to the financial success of RE4 . But in all fairness, Resident Evil 4 was ported to too many devices to count on hand. Although estimates may vary, the number of units RE4 sold could fall somewhere within the 8-to-9 million range, if we include the downsized mobile ports, the latest Switch port, and the PC versions along with the earlier console versi
Rare’s original vision for GoldenEye 007 was that of a 2D side-scroller for the SNES that would play similarly to Donkey Kong Country . Plans changed when Rare was told of the Nintendo 64 (then known as Ultra 64), and the company decided to make an on-rails shooter similar to Virtua Cop . Luckily, Rare decided to ditch the on-rails aspect of the game and allow players to explore levels freely, resulting in the game many FPS gamers fell in love with back in 1
