    RE the END

    I think that ship has sailed. I mean, I empathize with your viewpoint, but the brutal reality is that these characters are getting old and there's only so much you can do with them after 30 years. The kicker here is that Resident Evil games keep selling so as long as they do keep selling then...

    Separate Ways DLC (September 21st)

    Finally(!) played this and it is much better than the original game. There is more opportunities for stealth and while it may in fact seem linear, there are plenty of loadout options to choose from right from the getgo, which in itself provides the game with less linearity as you can strategize...

    Silent Hill revival announcement

    You really are pushing this theory hard. Didn't I just say that I did not like Silent Hill 2 when it was first released? I thought it was dull and gave up early but loved the functionality and atmosphere of the remake and plowed through it in no time. (It was a bit short, unfortunately, I did...

    Silent Hill revival announcement

    https://gamerant.com/new-silent-hill-game-remake-bloober-team/ Remake of Silent Hill the 1st confirmed!!! This is going to be truly a stunner, I didn't even like SH2 when it was first released but I loved the first game. The remake of SH2 was great though so imagine what they (Bloober Team)...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    Grace fits the criteria for a Resident Evil protagonist because she is actually law enforcement. Out of the "Big 4" main protagonists in the series, only Claire is not law enforcement but she is the exception to the norm. It's perfect because she seems inexperienced in the field as mere...

    What's everybody playing?

    Hell is Us (demo) This game shows a LOT of promise, folks. It's like a really good combination between Resident Evil, Dark Souls, and The Division. Seriously, check it out already, it's advertised as an action game but it is certainly more complex and challenging than it appears at first glance!

    Resident Evil 6 RE6 is the best game ever.

    I see Village as "Dumb fun", love playing it but don't like the story or the characters. 4, 5, and 6 are just so egregiously bad that it actually puts my status as a fan of the series in jeopardy, considering the sheer amount of people who still think RE4 especially is the greatest thing since...

    Tell me your favorite game and why should I buy it?

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl, hands down. It is a massive open world survival horror game with gritty realistic mechanics and a world that's extremely surreal and has the ability to make the fake seem real! I loved the first one and am arguably more of a fan to this series more than I...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    I think it's becoming apparent at this point that Dusk just says the stuff that he says thinking that he can make something a reality just by saying it. He has a platform and he's using it to try to conjure up the game he wants but it's now becoming apparent that Capcom isn't listening to a...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    Correct. The first blow to the series was when Kenichi Iwao left Capcom in 1996. The second blow was when Noboru Sugimura died in 2005. Mikami leaving was sort of the final nail in the coffin because at least with him around, there was a chance he could hire a better writer after the hype...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    I thought you were smarter than that, KX. You are using anecdotes and Dusk Golem grade (aka very poor) speculation here. There's no evidence to suggest Leon will be in the game in any major way. At best he will be like Chris in 7-8 aka playing a background supporting role. Again, if Leon...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    **To add to the previous rumor, I also heard that it would be impossible for Capcom's Resident Evil team to make an open world game because they simply do not have a big enough development staff. It would take 15 years for them to pull it off due to the sheer amount of coding required...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    **Incoming Rumor** **Please Read Cautiously** I've just heard that development is taking longer this time around because they're using a new engine. Whether it's a modified version of RE Engine or a whole new one is anyone's guess but that's what I heard.

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    In the world of business, if you actually do create something that's bigger, better, and prettier, you advertise the Hell out of it right off the bat and get people sucked in. The demo(nstration) revealed that we are getting a more refined version of 7 that does things more correctly and...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    All bickering aside, everything I've heard so far seems like this game will definitely at least feel like a classic Resident Evil game, as it shows much promise in the survival horror and classical architecture symbolism that's a staple for the series. It contains the classical "block inventory...
