She was in possession of the location of numerous potential Jedi and Force-sensitive children, which made her invaluable to Darth Vader and especially the Emperor. She eventually dies at Vader’s hands, but not before proving she was one of the most underrated Jedi in the or
Back in 2002, Capcom developed a remake of the first Resident Evil game , which was led by series creator Shinji Mikami when he was still employed at Capcom. The remake was first released to the Nintendo GameCube, however, which proved to be a fatal move on Capcom’s part given that most Resident Evil games were always released on a PlayStation console. Given this, most fans of Resident Evil were transitioning from the original PlayStation to the PlayStation 2, which is a key factor as to why the game had lackluster sales during its initial rele
Ever since the release of the Resident Evil 3 remake earlier this year, fans of the survival horror franchise have been wondering which game will be re-imagined next. Although there is still no official confirmation from Capcom, several leakers are claiming that Resident Evil 4 will be Capcom’s next remake after the release of Resident Evil 8 sometime next year. Of course, given the popularity of Resident Evil 4 , it is no surprise that this would be the next game that Capcom is eyeing to remake in the fut
It’s not unlike animation’s seemingly unanimous move toward CGI, leaving 2D behind as a relic of the medium. Disney likely won’t ever make something in the style of The Jungle Book or The Lion King again when Tangled, Moana, and Frozen have such a wide appeal. Anime is huge in its own right but it doesn’t have the same pull in the West as Pixar, Disney, or DreamWorks – all of which have moved toward CGI animation. Indies in gaming hanging onto the old approach is like anime retaining its 2D style. Nintendo taking Zelda back in time would be akin to Disney releasing a new animated film in 2D. It would show that the approach still has a place and it would pave the way for others to do the same in whatever shape or form that might take. I wasn’t particularly optimistic about this ever being a possibility but now, with Metroid Dread , there’s a glimmer of hope on the hori
The last 2D Zelda was released in 2004 – The Minish Cap . It was followed by Twilight Princess , Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks, Skyward Sword , A Link Between Worlds, Tri Force Heroes, and Breath of the Wild. Now, we have a sequel to the latter on the way. 2D Zelda seems to have died out, but that’s because 2D as a whole has seemingly been tossed to the wayside. Even now, remakes of 2D games opt to 3Dize them (if that isn’t a term, it is now). When I say that Nintendo should release another 2D game, I’m not talking about a remaster or remake or even the style of the 2D games but in 3D a la Link’s Awakening for the Switch. I’m talking flat, 2-dimensional sprites – the whole kaboo
To refresh, the original Resident Evil 4 took place in Spain, where a terrorist group known as the Los Iluminados utilized parasites seemingly living in their natural habitat inside a Spanish cave. Members of Los Iluminados willingly infected themselves with these parasites, known as the Las Plagas, in order to mutate themselves into powerful monstrosit
The remake of Resident Evil 3 reportedly shipped two million units in five days. There is an obvious hunger from consumers to relive games of the past rebuilt for modern consoles. The remake of Resident Evil 2 is currently Capcom’s sixth best-selling game of all time, with roughly 5.8 million units sold. Similarly, the original 1998 release of Resident Evil 2 for PS1 is Capcom’s seventh best-selling game of all time. That game sold 4.96 million units worldwide, not counting the various ports and updated re-relea
For the first time, the new revelation gives Resident Evil 4’s parasitic enemies a significant role in the Resident Evil universe and timeline, and a directly links them to Resident Evil’s Umbrella Corporation . Before Capcom revealed this information, little was revealed about the origins of the Nemesis parasite, FromSoftware Fan Art other than it was an artificially created parasite made in Umbrella’s European facilities. The context of this parasite nor its origins were ever disclosed, until
Resident Evil 3 Remake , still fresh from release in April, has successfully continued to enrich the Resident Evil universe by recreating past installments of the series. With a rumored Resident Evil 4 Remake in the works, and potentially new story elements that will link the plot to the Nemesis monster in Resident Evil 3 , there is still plenty in Resident Evil’ s past worth delving into with more insi
By giving Resident Evil 4 ‘s Las Plagas parasites more relevance to the series’ past, it also makes them all the more relevant in moving forward and creating rich storytelling for Resident Evil ‘s future, moving ahead. If the Nemesis parasite was fully or partly modeled after the Las Plagas parasites , we can assume that Umbrella was aware of the existence of the Las Plagas, and could likely had some sort of organizational connection to Resident Evil 4’ s main villa
