I can’t play the Spyro trilogy for the first time again, nor can I approach it with the same innocence and sense of wonder that I did when I was ten years old. I still love the series, but games have changed a lot since Spyro first came out. There have been 20 years of evolution and innovation since Spyro the Dragon was made, and I’ve seen how games have been refined and enhanced since then. I’ve changed a lot too. I’m a critic now, and I pick games apart and analyze them for a living. I can revisit Spyro from a new perspective, but now I experience it as an echo of the original – a snapshot of my childh
With the release of the Resident Evil 3 __ remake, fans are wondering what’s coming next. Will Capcom release Resident Evil VIII ? It has been three years since its predecessor launched in 2017. Rumors are already swirling about the game suggesting that it could be even more drastically different from Resident Evil V
Is there anything that can save VR? Before I played Resident Evil 4 VR, I probably would have said this is as good as it gets for the Quest 2. Now that I’ve got my hands on it, however, I firmly believe that remakes are the future of
To better conceptualize this, Resident Evil 4 ‘s Las Plagas parasites, which comprised all the game’s enemies and the infected, as far as the original game was concerned, gave no hint that the parasites had any connection or history to Umbrella. Nor did the Los Iluminados terrorist group and its leadership have any link or mention in the Resident Evil timeline previously. Specifically, Los Iluminados had no connection to Umbre
A more thickened plot for a Resident Evil 4 Remake , which redefines the history of the Las Plagas parasites with more familiarity and relevance to the T-Virus origins and experimental history, would not only make Resident Evil 4 Remake fit into the timeline better, but it can also strengthen the plot-line thereafter. Resident Evil 4 ‘s Las Plagas parasites have the potential to be the sister-counterpart to the T-Virus, with a history of usage and demand within the same corporation, agenda and lineage of experimental initiatives by Umbre
The concept of a controller is one that Nintendo challenges. As the world settles in on one way of charging their controllers or button locations, Nintendo questions why catching a fish with a rod and reel shouldn’t feel the same
Grogu steals just about every scene he’s in , but as cute and funny as Grogu is, he has a tragic past. Grogu was a Jedi padawan at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant at the time of Order 66. Someone – it remains a mystery who – saved him and whisked him away to safety as Anakin Skywalker led a bloody rampage through the sacred tem
Not much is known about the past of the Grand Inquisitor, the leader of the Force users serving Darth Vader and The Emperor. It is known that he was a Jedi, specifically a Jedi Temple Guard from Coruscant. How he survived Order 66 isn’t known, nor is how he became one of the cruelest and violent figures of the Imperial era. The Grand Inquisitor chose to die in a battle with Kanan Jarrus rather than survive the loss and face the wrath of Darth Va
Remaking Code Veronica on next gen consoles would provide this cult classic with a visual update that it has long deserved. It has been over 20 years since the game’s initial release in February 2000 on Sega’s Dreamcast. Although, visually enhanced in 2011, the graphics don’t hold up well to today’s standa
I’ve played close to 100 VR games, and I’ve never had an experience like Resident Evil 4. There are better-looking, more immersive, Elden Ring Stop motion and higher quality games out there, but none have ever given me as much joy and nostalgia as playing Resident Evil in VR has. As soon as the opening cutscene ended and I took control of Leon, I was instantly transported. I know every inch of RE4’s village, castle, and underground mines, but I never felt like I’d been to these places until now. RE4VR feels like the difference between looking at a picture of the Parthenon versus traveling to Greece and standing in the center of it. Seeing RE4 on a screen is incomparable to seeing it in person, and experiences like this have the potential to sell VR to even the most reluctant play
This enhanced version of Code Veronica X can be played now on the PS3, Xbox 360, and Xbox One through backwards compatibility. Or if you really want to get old school, fire up a Dreamcast. Play Code Veronica like it originally was inten
As previously stated, remastered games are also quite profitable much like remakes. Resident Evil 4 has been ported and remastered to multiple different consoles, past and current gen. And this isn’t because re-releasing games is a hobby for Capcom. One of the more recent RE4 remasters, released for the PS4 and Xbox One in 2016, sold 1.6 million un
Facebook clearly sees the potential for VR versions of classic games, having announced GTA: San Andreas at last week’s Facebook Connect 2021. We should expect to see more PS2-era games on the Quest 2 (or Meta 2, I guess), hopefully a lot more. Games like Shadow of the Colossus , Metal Gear Solid 3, Silent Hill 2, and Beyond Good & Evil are ripe for VR versions, and I’d love to see even older games like GoldenEye and Perfect Dark remade for the Quest too. A robust library of classic games is exactly what VR needs to attract a wider audience, and Resident Evil 4 was absolutely the best place to st
