This trend kicked off last year with the release of Resident Evil 2 and continued this year when Resident Evil 3 hit store shelves. Just how do these new remakes sit with some of the

With its release this week on consoles and PC, Resident Evil 3 arrives as the second consecutive remake of one of the franchise’s mainline installments, following last year’s stellar Resident Evil 2. Given that both of these games first debuted on the original PlayStation–and were the only two core Resident Evil games that I personally
Capcom revealed new details on the upcoming remake of Resident Evil 3 in this week’s Famitsu magazine, through an interview with Producers Masao Kawada and Peter J. Fabiano.

You really do think you’ve seen it all and that nothing could surprise you anymore, but that literally couldn’t be further from the truth – especially in this case. When we talk about mods in games they are usually something silly added in like when Shaggy from Scooby-doo became an extra in Jump Force or
After players first experienced the trip to Raccoon City with the original game in 1998, the recent release of Resident Evil 2 brought all that fear and horror back to life in a stunning fashion. Coming off the release of the acclaimed RE2 remake on consoles and PC last month, it appears that the game’s success has continued

While the game is out in just a couple days on consoles and PC, Capcom has already revealed that there is plenty more in store for Resident Evil fans in the coming months
Resident Evil has been one of my favorite franchises since I was a kid, even when I was terrified of its creepy zombies. I still fondly remember the moment when I was around 11 or 12 and rented the remaster of the original Resident Evil, only to immediately return it to my local Blockbuster the next day
