Also, Resident Evil's Las Plagas parasites were always viewed oddly to much of the Resident Evil community, given that they stood on their own with no known historical links to Umbrella and their virology research, until now. While it sounds as if the Nemesis Parasite took inspiration from the Las Plagas parasites as a blueprint or model, is is perhaps not exactly the same as the parasite found in Resident Evil 4's Gran
Animal Crossing: New Horizons was inescapable when it debuted. The game came out at the perfect time as a large percentage of the world was stuck indoors; removed from that context, New Horizons is a charming social sim that enjoyed roughly two years of frequent upda
While Little Nightmares might be significantly scarier than the average Studio Ghibli experience, there's no denying the comparisons that can be made regardless. This is especially true when one looks at the artwork of Spirited Away, one of the most well-known Studio Ghibli mov
Another Wii U game that was ported to the Switch, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is not only a phenomenal platformer by any metric but also one of the best entries in Nintendo's legendary franchise. Retro Studios, a Nintendo subsidiary, handled the game's development, building nicely on its work on 2010's Donkey Kong Country Returns . Tropical Freeze controls incredibly well, although it does feel fairly different from most other platformers on the market; consequently, newcomers to the series should be prepared for a learning cu
Resident Evil 4 uses a control scheme that many players consider to be dated. In a departure from more modern third-person shooter controls, the protagonist and fan-favorite character Leon can't strafe, with left or right inputs on the controller rotating him in place. While this might feel unintuitive at first, and it certainly takes a little bit of getting used to for new players, it's actually an important design cho
To be sure, certain moments like the encounter with the regenerator stand out as among the scariest in the series , but overall the atmosphere is one of corny one-liners, martial arts kicks, and action movie setpieces. These elements are important to the original game's appeal, but in keeping with the atmosphere of the previous two remakes, perhaps it's best to lean a little further into the Survival Horror remakes eleme
Since then, the Resident Evil remake was ported to the Wii before getting an HD remastered version for the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. It is worth noting that the only time the Resident Evil remake sold a significant amount of copies was when it was remastered to current-generation consoles. However, despite its lackluster initial sales, the Resident Evil remake is often regarded by most fans as the best one yet, given that it stayed 90% faithful to the original material. There were some minor additions to the game's story such as the Lisa Trevor storyline, but most of the changes were improvements such as a major graphical overhaul, a new script, and better voice-over, which is a vast improvement over the infamous voice acting of the 1996 original g
While any appearance from Wesker may not resonate with newer fans, there’s never been a better opportunity to reintroduce Chris Redfield following his redesign at the end of _ Resident Evil 7 _ . With _ Resident Evil Village _ set to feature Chris in a major role, it’s honestly a bit surprising Capcom is choosing to remake _ RE4 _ fi
Undertale is an indie gem that took the world by storm, and it's easy to see why people wanted more from its brilliant developer, Toby Fox. He decided to drip-feed fans with content for a sequel that was split into different chapt
Strange as it might be to describe any Mario game as "underrated," Super Mario 3D World comes very close to fitting that bill and it is frequently in the running for the best game on the system . Released on the underperforming Wii U, Super Mario 3D World is the brilliant sequel to Super Mario 3D Land . While staged like the classic platformers, these games add another dimension, basically serving as a link between Mario 's 2D and 3D e
Chris Redfield may be the closest thing _ Resident Evil _ has to a main character, but he’s hardly the face of the franchise. Beyond conceding that role to Jill Valentine, Chris’ popularity is outshined by that of Leon S. Kennedy. The main character of _ Resident Evil 2 _ and _ 4 _ , it only makes sense to strike while the iron’s
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
