Resident Evil 4 , while arguably not up to the technical standards of many modern experiences, is far from as obsolete as the franchise’s first handful of entries. The over-the-shoulder camera, third-person aiming, and overall format utilized in the reimagining of Resident Evil 2 was, after all, first established throughout 4’s sensational rebranding of the series back in 2005. In fact, one of the remake’s most critically acclaimed features was its faithful resurrection of the systems and mechanics first established in the fourth game, with many citing Resident Evil 2’s remake as a return to form for the franchise’s classic formula. With its design emulating Resident Evil 4 so closely, it begs the question of whether a remake would seem unnecessary; almost acting as more of a visual touch up than a full reimagining of the original ti
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
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
Finally, the concept art (above bottom) also shows some sort of mutated humanoid in a wheel chair wearing a lab coat. In the picture, the humanoid is wearing a lab coat, suggesting he was probably an Umbrella employee that had undergone experiments on himself, possibly. it also shows him pressing buttons on the remote control for his electric wheel chair, suggesting that he has retained some of his former intellige
To put it into context, Resident Evil and Resident Evil 2’s horror elements were derived from the claustrophobic environments that players find themselves in. However, in Resident Evil 3 , horror comes from the fast-paced battles with Nemesis, making every encounter with the monster a near-death experience. This is why most of the action-heavy gameplay of the remake is seen with every Nemesis encounter, which makes sense due to the fact that Nemesis is much smarter and more menacing than Mr. X and the original Tyr
Although Resident Evil 3 is not a bad remake, it is important to acknowledge that it’s not perfect either. Similar to its original counterpart, the game’s main campaign is relatively short , due to the fact that the remake did not include any additional storylines to the game. Sure, UBCS member Tyrell may have been given an expanded role in the game, but Brad Vickers died too soon, Dario Rosso’s appearance is mostly just for the sake of having him there, and players didn’t even get to meet and know the civilians that Jill and Carlos fought so hard to res
Another important part of the Grand Theft Auto formula came about by complete accident. Apparently, cops weren’t meant to chase players off the road, but they started to do so due to a glitch in the programming. This glitch reportedly led to the “Wanted” system that is still used to this day in the latest entry in the series, Grand Theft Auto
Without a shadow of a doubt, Capcom is a part of video game royalty. The company has been home to a number of the greatest gaming franchises of all time, bringing revolutionary titles to a wide variety of genres, from fighting games all the way through to survival horror. The publisher has solidified its place in the market through decades’ worth of quality, earning itself a place in the history of gam
It’s certainly a concern, particularly when such care seems to be going towards the remakes and side projects that the company has in store. After all flux construct locations, Capcom has confirmed that fan feedback for Resident Evil 6 is helping to improve the development of the Resident Evil 2 remake . Although that’s certainly a positive sign for the remake, given the ignominious reception that Resident Evil 6 received, one may wonder why that feedback is not being used for an entirely new ti
