Capcom Needs To Focus On New Games Rather Than Remakes

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


It might seem ridiculous to select just a single suit of armor from those available to either purchase or craft in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim since players were free to assemble their own suits based on whatever criteria they chose - style, strength, magical properties, or weight. But when taking the intimidation factor, value, physical attributes, and time taken to unlock it, star wars jedi Survivor the Daedric Armor is hard to


While the trailer does not confirm that the gameplay within the game will take place at an earlier date, the clues do point to a more in-depth introduction giving us insight into the city's descent to chaos. As far as important dates are concerned, the gameplay in the original Resident Evil 3 began when Jill Valentine left her apartment on September 28, 1998 , a day before Resident Evil 2 's events begin. By September 28, the city was already in desolate ruins, overrun with hordes of zombies and had become lawl


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


With April 2020 right around the corner, we will not have to wait long to find out whether these insights transpire within the remake of Resident Evil 3 's storytelling, and to what degree of detail and content. While Capcom has confirmed Resident Evil 3 will not be covered at The Game Awards on Thursday, hopefully more footage, information, and content will be provided before the game's release as we salivate for new clues and insights for what is to come upon final rele


The excitement for the remake of Resident Evil 3 is at an all time high as the first trailer was finally released on today's State of Play livestream , confirming an April 3, 2020 release date on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. There are some key takeaways fans can gather from the trailer and everything that has been revealed today, which may clue us in to what changes, insights, and additions the storyline of Resident Evil 3's remake could ent


Perhaps this new scene in the trailer is some possible insight or a cue that the game may expand upon the events that transpired while Jill was on standby and what Carlos may have been doing in the meantime. Or at least we can hope. Again, there is no way to confirm whether this would include gameplay elements, but certainly more exposure of the storyline into the events that unfolded during that period seems reasona

In the original game, she runs into the Nemesis for the first time l ater in the game. While it appears Jill's first confrontation with the Nemesis transpires at the start of the game as she is fleeing her home, it does not necessarily change the story from the original, as this same sequence could have transpired in the original game too, but was not sh


It is important to take note of the way the lighting and shadows block out the full picture of the Nemesis in the new trailer, as even Jill probably did not have time to get a clear look at the creature, other than deciphering something big and threatening stalking her. Therefore, this can still setup the first 'clear' encounter with the Nemesis in similar fashion to the original game's timeline in the story, without any major chan


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
