When Resident Evil 2 remake came out last year, Capcom re-introduced players to Mr.X and made the tyrant more menacing and terrifying than his original counterpart. However, unbeknownst to many players, Mr. X became a testing ground for Capcom and the company gathered fan feedback in an effort to make Nemesis even more terrifying than the fedora-wearing monster. As seen in recent gameplay videos of Resident Evil 3 remake, it is obvious that Nemesis is much scarier than Mr. X, not only because of his ability to run and use weapons but because Capcom needed the monster to be bigger, terrifying, and much more relentless in pursuing play
Seeing a modern retake of Code Veronica and its unique settings and deep storytelling would certainly be a welcome addition to Capcom’s Resident Evil Remakes. Capcom may already be testing the waters, considering Code Veronica was ported to the P
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
Of course, some may argue that Carlos and Mikhail are mere mercenaries of Umbrella and are not responsible for the Raccoon City outbreak. While that argument is valid, it is worth pointing out that in today’s Jill Valentine-centered trailer , it was revealed that Jill herself realized this later in the game, and even started to apologize to Carlos. The trailer also showed how Jill and Carlos’s relationship improved, and how they started to rely on each other to survive the outbreak. This goes to show that after realizing that Carlos was not deeply involved with Umbrella, Jill started treating him like a partner, showing that her sarcastic remarks earlier in the game were not made for the sake of appearing mean-spiri
Like Destiny , Bungie’s Halo underwent a number of revisions before it became the genre-defining FPS powerhouse it is known as today. Originally, Halo was set to be a real-time strategy game, and then it became a third-person shooter that was going to launch for Mac and PC, not as an Xbox exclus
Borderlands is known for its cel-shaded art style and quirky sense of humor, but if plans didn’t change during development, it could have been a much different game. When Borderlands was first announced, it sported a darker tone and realistic graphics to ma
Having said all that, is Capcom’s portrayal of Jill in the remake different from the original? With everything we know so far, the answer to that would be yes, Capcom did take a different approach in Jill’s personality, but the developers were still able to retain her overall character. She remains independent and capable, compassionate to others but tough on her enemies. Sure, she is a little bit sassier than her previous portrayals but her comebacks are always within rea
However, unlike the original Resident Evil 3 , Jill is much more vocal about what she wants to happen, giving her more control of her situation. As previously mentioned, her conversation with Carlos and Mikhail included sarcastic comebacks, which made some fans think that maybe Capcom is trying too hard to portray her as this badass heroine for the sake of just being badass. However, looking at the context of the situation closely, her reaction to Carlos and Mikhail remains consistent with Jill’s charac
One reason we love Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas so much (there’s too many to count) is because of its character progression. Players can upgrade skills such as running speed and strength. No other Grand Theft Auto game has incorporated such as revolutionary system—and it may never happen ag
In the original game, zombies were not as threatening as other enemies in Resident Evil 3. They were slow, easy to outrun, and could be killed by just a handful of bullets. Although they were still slow and could easily be outrun in Resident Evil 2 remake, zombies are just more bulletproof even when shooting them in the head. This is because of the fact that Resident Evil 2 and 3 implement a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, which makes it easier to land headshots unlike with the classic games’ fixed camera angles. Of course, if remake zombies were as fragile as their original counterparts, then clearing them out in the game would be a breeze given that the over-the-shoulder perspective offers better visibility to play
In 2019’s remake of Resident Evil 2 , players were given a glimpse of what it’s like to roam the zombie-infested streets of Raccoon City. However, given that the game mostly took place inside the Raccoon City police station , sewer, and Umbrella laboratory, players weren’t really able to see just how bad the outbreak hit the once peaceful community. In 1999’s Resident Evil 3, players were able to see more tears of the kingdom energy upgrades Raccoon City, but due to hardware limitations at that time, the city mostly comprised of narrow alleyways and out of place do
