He’s one of the most iconic characters in video games, and Nintendo allowed us to shape him into something that represents us even if it goes against exactly how the canonical universe might have wanted it. All these years later, it remains one of the game’s strongest elements, and it seems Breath of the Wild 2 is not only expanding upon the potential for fashion, but providing the player with ample tools to make this version of Link into whoever or whatever they want. Obviously, I’m going off a brief reveal trailer, but there’s so much here to delve i

Given that the G-Virus was discovered in 1988 in Lisa Trevor, this means that Umbrella must have known about Salazar's castle and the Las Plagas parasites in the caves nearby for a long time. The link between the Nemesis parasite and the Las Plagas parasites ties Resident Evil 4 deeply into the timeline of the series' past, thereby making it all the more relevant and necessary in setting the trajectory for Resident Evil 4 's timeline thereaf

There’s just no getting around the fact that _ Resident Evil 4 _ does not need a remake while _ Code Veronica _ desperately does. _ CV _ is by no means a bad game, but it loses much of the replay value defined by the originals. Its long length also means that the campaign doesn’t move at as brisk a p

A _ Code Veronica _ remake would allow audiences a chance to get to know Chris Redfield and form a deeper attachment to him. It’s arguable _ Resident Evil 7 _ does this to an extent through DLC, but _ Code Veronica _ shows Chris before his life started to truly fall ap

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

Perhaps the most glaring reason _ Code Veronica _ needs a remake before _ Resident Evil 4 _ is that it’s simply the next game in the chronology. Both in the _ Resident Evil _ main timeline and in the franchise’s release order, _ Code Veronica _ follows _ Resident Evil 3 _ . Skipping over to _ RE4 _ – a game that flashes forward roughly a decade– seems a poor move. It’s also disconcerting in the sense that this would imply Capcom has no interest in remaking _ Code Veronica _ . Why remake _ Resident Evil 4 _ first just to jump back in time for _ CV

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a beautiful game. Despite the relatively limited hardware of the Switch, Nintendo was able to produce a vast, uncompromising open world that could be freely explored for hundreds upon hundreds of hours. Each discovery felt perfectly natural, with its picturesque landscapes and immaculate art design spurring us onward into each new location. It’s a masterpiece that remains unbeaten to this very

How it is currently, _ RE4 _ throws a curveball out of nowhere to attempt to reset the board. In practice, however, this just results in _ Resident Evil 5 _ needing to pick up the pieces and try to pick up where the original _ Code Veronica _ thematically left off. Just one single game of set up can fix this is

The remake of Resident Evil 3 reportedly shipped two million units in five days. There is an obvious hunger from consumers to relive Star Wars Games Innovation 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

If anything, its sequel is likely the primary candidate to accomplish such a feat, with the recent reveal trailer unveiling an experience that isn’t afraid to be vastly different, while also remaining true to the masterful foundations it was built upon. While the Divine Beasts were grandiose monoliths and the various civilizations of Hyrule were saturated in fascinating glimpses of a wider culture, much of the real beauty was found in Link hims

One of our editors has said that Breath of the Wild 2 could be teasing two alternate versions of Link , and given how the airborne and land adjacent versions of our protagonist are so aesthetically distinct, perhaps there is some truth to that. Alternatively, Link’s newfound abilities are something that only work in certain environments, requiring an outfit change and flowing golden hair to make specific feats possi

_ Code Veronica _ is almost the end of an era of sorts for _ Resident Evil _ , and it in turn pays tribute to the franchise’s many settings and recurring puzzles– going so far as to even feature a rendition of the original game’s mansion during the climax. It’s a nice nod for fans of the series, but it also means _ CV _ has a very derivative sett
