The game is also bursting with depth in every aspect of its design as a video game. From the core shooting mechanic to challenging dungeons and puzzles, incremental but satisfying weapon progression, heavily varied environment design, a well-balanced rising difficulty, and even some more miniscule details bring this game to life greater than many at the time. And it didn’t have to be a 40-60 hours long experience to feel like players got their money’s worth. Very few games felt like such a complete package as Resident Evil 4 did; Resident Evil 4 pioneered a lot for modern video games , not just the series its
Capcom has had quite the resurgence lately, coming off huge wins from the success of Devil May Cry 5 and Monster Hunter World, but an even larger contributor to Capcom’s run has come from the Resident Evil series. Both Resident Evil 2 Remake and more recently Resident Evil 3 Remake have seen massive success, showing that the franchise that many fans decided had lost its way was finally making a comeback, even if some are fully satisfied with RE3 . It seems Capcom wishes to keep the ball rolling, as reports have begun popping up that Resident Evil 4 is on deck for the next overh
The objective of Super Mario 64 is to rescue Princess Peach from the malevolent Bowser. Mario must search far and wide and unlock the hidden power of the castle. Why stop at doing a simple remake? Give the game online co-op and a plethora of new features that improve Super Mario
Ever since their introduction in Resident Evil 2 , Lickers became one of the most feared and most popular enemies in the Resident Evil franchise. Similar to Crimson Heads, Lickers are mutations from severely injured zombies, but this mutation is caused by a separate t-Virus strain. Lickers are known for their large exposed brains and extremely long tongue. Although these creatures do not have the ability to see, they are extremely sensitive to sound and are able to hunt their prey just by listening to their movements. Although Lickers were present in Raccoon City during the Outbreak, Jill Valentine wasn’t able to encounter them, but it will be interesting to see whether these monsters will be present in the remake, especially inside the police stat
Yet, it’s worth remembering that Resident Evil 4 is undeniably one of the series’ most pivotal entries. The action-centric format that eventually went onto define the later games in the series was done to perfection in 4 , with the game completely reinventing what it meant to play a Resident Evil title . It goes without saying that while a remake might not be as utterly transformative as games like Resident Evil 2 and the upcoming remake of the third game, there’s still a lot of merit in updating Resident Evil 4’s combat and clunky controls to show just how incredible the game’s core gameplay and set of mechanics were back in the day. Fixing the aiming so players can move while shooting and adding some of the incredible nuances that made Resident Evil 2 such an immersive next step for the series would go a long way if added to the fourth game, especially if done so alongside a major visual overha
Although members from the modding community have attempted to revitalize Half-Life 2 by improving its graphics, there is only so much developers can do with the game. In its current state, Half-Life 2 can only change slightly. A remake from the ground-up is precisely what the game ne
Similar to the 2019 remake of its predecessor, Resident Evil 3 remake is set to bring a lot of new things to the reimagining of the 1999 game. Ever since the announcement of Resident Evil 3 back in December of last year, Capcom has been generous enough to give fans a peek at what to expect in the upcoming game, which includes a major overhaul of the game’s protagonist, Jill Valentine. But with physical redesigns aside, is Capcom’s portrayal of Jill Valentine in the remake still the same with the origi
To those who are not so well-versed in Resident Evil’s long history, Jill Valentine is one of the first playable characters in Resident Evil, and many claim that she is also the first female playable character in a survival-horror game. When Capcom first introduced Jill, she is described as a capable police officer, whose strengths include her compassionate nature, a strong sense of justice, and her ability to work well under extreme pressure. It is fairly difficult to go in-depth on Jill’s personality during the first Resident Evil game, since she barely had any, given that Capcom’s priority at this point in Resident Evil’s history was to introduce strong Survival horror game-horror gamep
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
