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
Shortly after its release, the Resident Evil 2 remake received glowing reviews from fans and critics, and it even outsold the lifetime sales of the original game . This goes to show that staying faithful, even when some of the events have been reshuffled, is an important factor for a remake’s success. Another thing that fans loved about the RE2 remake is the addition of new storylines and the re-writing of some of the Mario side Characters and events that all made sense in the grand scheme of things. In the end, the Resident Evil 2 remake is undoubtedly Capcom’s most profitable
Given the trajectory of Capcom’s admittedly stellar remakes thus far, I’m unsure it will do such a thing. It could be the opposite, with reimaginings of Resident Evil 2 and 3 opting to trim the fat in favour of tightly executed scares and chaotic action instead of giving us time to stew in our own horrific, b-movie circumstances. Compared to everything that came before it, Resident Evil 4 was a completely different beast. It took the clunky controls of the franchise and morphed them into a third-person shooter experience that felt deviantly modern by 2005 standards. It wasn’t afraid to push boundaries, setting the bar so high that I’d argue the genre is yet to surpass them even to
Yoda was established as one of the few survivors of the great purge in The Empire Strikes Back . Many years later, fans saw how he anticipated the shocking betrayal of the clones on Kashyyk. Among the wisest and most powerful of the Jedi, Yoda lived for nearly a thousand years, training many apprentices, including Count Dooku. Yoda went into exile on Dagobah after the rise of the Empire, biding his time until the right moment to help bring about the return of the J
This train of thought originates from the remake of Resident Evil 3, which was a painfully underwhelming successor to the phenomenal remake of Resident Evil 2. The latter was one of Capcom’s best games in years, ushering in a new era of survival horror brilliance that I was confident it would build upon. With the arrival of Resident Evil 3 and Village, it seems it is opting for an action-oriented approach that won’t risk alienating those who aren’t willing to negotiate with horror. It’s the smart move, but creatively, it feels like a hollow one. Resident Evil is at its weakest when the action ramps up, giving way to adequate gunplay instead of allowing its atmosphere and monsters to do the heavy lift
However, the one thing that disappointed fans the most is the content of the original that never made it to the remake. Several locations such as the Raccoon City park, the Undead factory, and the Clock Tower were either scrapped, replaced, or unexplored. A few enemies such as the giant worm, spiders, and many more were also not featured in the remake. Of course, the overall plot is still the same, but fans were not happy that the Resident Evil 3 remake was split in two with the first half being the main game, and the second half featuring Resident Evil Resistance, which some fans blame to be the reason for Resident Evil 3’s demise. Despite the criticisms though, Capcom said that while the commercial performance of Resident Evil 3 remake pales in comparison to its predecessor, it is what the studio expected, given that RE2 has always been more popular than R
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
Obi-Wan Kenobi, like Ahsoka Tano, is going to be the subject of a streaming series on Disney+. The series is likely to connect to the Star Wars movies in a lot of ways and may show some of the legendary Jedi Master’s life in the immediate aftermath of Order 66. Obi-Wan lived in seclusion on Tattooine for nearly twenty years, watching over Luke Skywalker, who he would eventually train and guide into becoming the first new Jedi in a generation. His sacrifice and efforts helped end the Sith and the Emp
Resident Evil 4 was a major departure from the rest of the series when it was first released. While there first three games in the series were methodical, strategic survival horror experiences, Resident Evil 4 was an intense action shooter first and foremost. While there was some doubt about fans’ willingness to accept this new creative decision, Resident Evil 4 achieved the improbable by being so outrageously good that players couldn’t help but feel excited about the new direction the series was tak
