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
Another aspect of Resident Evil 4 that was innovative for the time was its sense of scale, despite its linearity. Leon runs through rural Spanish villages, mineral mines, gothic castles, modern military installations, etc. Even in its 15-20 hour runtime, players travel to such an interesting variety of locales that the game is perceived to be much grander than it is. Even now, as the game creeps up to 15 years old, the world of Resident Evil 4 has a sense of sprawl balanced perfectly with its actual size. Now with modern technology allowing for higher graphical fidelity, a remake could see that scale expanded with larger highly detailed environments further beyond what the GameCube was capable of. Invoking that sense of scale that was so impactful in the original game would be perfect for a Resident Evil 4 rem
Code: Veronica originally released on the Sega Dreamcast in February 2000. This game is about five years older than RE4 which shows with the game's much more dated graphics. Meanwhile, RE4 has gotten remaster after remaster since its 2005 release. At Read the Full Document same time, Code: Veronica hasn't seen any graphical improvements since the HD re-release in 2
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
Like Borderlands , Conker's Bad Fur Day went through some major revisions that made it a much more unique and arguably more interesting game. Rare's original vision for it was that of a typical, kid-friendly 3D platformer in the vein of Super Mario 64 and Banjo-Kazooie , called Conker's Quest and later Twelve Tales: Conker 64 . These early versions of the game even had Conker's girlfriend Berri as a playable character in stages that featured strategy gameplay, as well as split-screen co-op for the st
In the end, Resident Evil 3 remake is not perfect. It has a lot of drawbacks and maybe the changes that Capcom introduced are too drastic for hardcore players, but it is by no means a bad remake. Resident Evil 3 may not be for everyone, especially to those who are looking for a shot-for-shot reimagining of the 1999 game. But nostalgia aside, the latest reimagining of Resident Evil 3 offers an intense and scary experience that allows players to experience the same story but in a different way, which is what a good remake should
The first three monsters on this list are existing creatures from other Resident Evil games, and headlining it are Crimson Head Zombies which were introduced in 2002's remake of Resident Evil . Although these creatures started as plain old zombies, Crimson Heads are mutations of zombies and are faster, deadlier, and imposes a greater threat to players. In the Resident Evil remake , Crimson Heads are made when players take down regular zombies but are unable to decapitate their heads or burn their bodies. As a result, these zombies would resurrect once again but with sharp claws and the ability to run after the player. In terms of gameplay, the Crimson Heads made resource management even more difficult in Resident Evil given that taking down zombies doesn't just cost players bullets, but also gasoline, which is required to burn the corpses of zombies. It is currently unclear why Crimson Heads did not make further appearances after the Resident Evil remake. While it would be cool to see them again in Resident Evil 3 , their appearance in the game is unlik
One feature that is lacking from Resident Evil 4 is the ability to run and shoot at the same time. This feature was later introduced in RE6 , while RE4 relied on a "stop and pop" mechanic rather than "run and g
Donkey Kong is one of the most important video games of all time, introducing some of the industry's most popular characters, and helping Nintendo become an even bigger player in the North American video game market. Considering this, it's crazy to think that it all could have ended much differently, with Shigeru Miyamoto working on a licensed Popeye game instead of creating original charact
