Deltarune has been lauded by the masses, and fans can’t wait for the final product to grace them with their presence. Hopefully, the full game won’t take too long to come out, with the quality of this game being just as enjoyable as the first game, if not m
Link’s other vast suite of powers is also quite brilliant in its own right and proves why Tears of the Kingdom has received critical plaudits across the board. Nintendo continues to prove why it deserves the praise of being one of the best video game developers around, and Tears of the Kingdom ‘s cel-shaded art style makes it look quite charming and perfectly in line with Studio Ghibli’s visu
As we learn more about Resident Evil 8: Village , a significant portion of the original rumors have proved accurate, and while that’s exciting news for the next-generation sequel, it gives far more credence to another project rumored to be in the works at Capcom. The success of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil Mass Effect 3 Citadel DLC immediately led to speculation that a remake of the genre-defining Resident Evil 4 would be the next game in line after Resident Evil 8 . Based on the Resident Evil 8 announcement, let’s take a look at how the rumors stacked up in the end and what that could mean for Resident Evil 4 Rema
The story of this game is bound to feel like a Studio Ghibli creation in every sense of the world. Everything from the charming world to the amazing cast of characters will keep players hooked until the end of this amazing experie
RE4 isn’t the first game to get a VR remake, but it is the first to really capitalize on the nostalgia potential. Skyrim VR, No Man’s Sky, and LA Noire VR are all modified – and in some ways, compromised – versions of modern games, but RE4VR is entirely modernized and enhanced by VR. This isn’t just an alternate way to play RE4, it’s the best way to play it in 2
It all depends on whether Capcom decides to double-down on making Resident Evil 4 Remake a more pure action-game in following on the elements that made the original unique to the series, or whether Capcom wants to create a more hybrid experience between action and realistic survival horror. The hybrid experience may be the more likely trajectory, given that in the past, technology made it difficult to capture the realism and fast-paced action-oriented experience in
For example, the mysterious Weapons Merchant in Resident Evil 4 , who happens to pop up at various intervals in Resident Evil 4 to help the player buy, sell and upgrade equipment, just seems out of place in Resident Evil’s more realistic oracle. Whether the merchant and currency system will be in a Resident Evil 4 Remake will be an interesting beacon point to keep an eye on over the direction of Resident Evil 4 Rema
VR remakes like Resident Evil 4 are a much easier sell to non-VR players than other games in the medium. I can preach about how remarkable Half-Life: Alyx is until everyone hates me (which happens often) but it’s impossible to really understand how great that game is unless you play it for yourself. This has always been a huge barrier for VR, which is why Oculus was so keen on developing a wireless model that could more easily be taken on the go and shared with friends. People need to try VR before they really get it, but remakes of classic games like RE4 might just be compelling enough to convince people to take the dive sight unseen. « It’s Resident Evil 4, but you’re actually walking through the village yourself » is easy to wrap your head around, and a pretty intriguing premise
Nintendo has uplifting, lighthearted games that appeal to a wide demographic. Someone doesn’t have to be a kid to appreciate first-party Nintendo Switch games, and these titles are generally the main reason to pick up the cons
Nintendo Labo is fun for all ages and is as simple or complex as the player’s imagination. By setting up the controllers on various bits of cardboard, players get a level of immersion they’d ordinarily need VR to harness. Ultimately, this release is difficult to recommend since it is the definition of an acquired taste, despite being fairly accessible as an idea. While certainly fun, Labo is also one of those concepts that can grow old quic
When Resident Evil 4 first released on Gamecube in 2005, it not only transformed the Resident Evil series into a third-person action game with horror elements, but Resident Evil 4 set the bar for quality game design and technological achievement for action-gaming at the t
Capcom has already remade the first three games in the series and updated their graphics for modern standards. If Capcom were to continue making their remakes in chronological order then Code Veronica should be next on the list. Claire’s adventure on Rockfort Island and Antarctica takes place three months following the event of RE2 and RE3: Nemes
RE4VR doesn’t function like a remake or remaster at all. When I play it, it’s a way of experiencing something I’m intimately familiar with. It’s somewhere between nostalgia and deja vu – like going somewhere you’ve only been in your dreams. When I’m fully immersed in a VR game, it’s the closest I ever get to that childhood feeling of getting totally lost in a game, and the familiarity of RE4 makes that even more profound. I know every inch of this game, yet somehow I’m also seeing it all for the first t
