How Resident Evil 4 Could Benefit From A Remake

From there, a Resident Evil 4 remake could continue making miniscule changes, but there's not really much else to tackle ideally. Resident Evil 4 's experience was already an incredibly well-balanced experience that any changes beyond the aforementioned may work to cheapen a remake in the spirit of the original game. Though Capcom has found success in implementing radical changes as well , it'd be interesting to see how a reimagining could be tackled for Resident Evil


First appearing in Super Mario Bros. 3 , the suit turns either Mario or Luigi into their Hammer variants, modeled after the Koopa enemies known as Hammer Bros. With a fireproof shell, an indestructible helmet, and a set of hammers to hurl at enemies, the Hammer Suit shows Mario in a whole new light. With extra style points awarded for the black color scheme, fans can't help but love one of the few mental images of Mario heading into battle sporting actual armor instead of overa


Like Borderlands , Conker's Bad Fur Day went through some major revisions that made it a much more unique and arguably more interesting game. Rare's original vision for it was that of a typical, kid-friendly 3D platformer in the vein of Super Mario 64 and Banjo-Kazooie , called Conker's Quest and later Twelve Tales: Conker 64 . These early versions of the game even had Conker's girlfriend Berri as a playable character in stages that featured strategy gameplay, as well as split-screen co-op for Steam Deck performance fix the st


Several days ago, Capcom released the highly-anticipated remake of Resident Evil 3 , which takes players back to Raccoon City. Although Capcom previously revealed that both games had an overlap period during development, the massive success of Resident Evil 2 set a high-expectation for the re-imagining of the third game, giving Capcom the insurmountable task of developing a sequel that will surpass its predecessor. A fair warning to readers that this article will have MAJOR SPOILE


Back in 2001, Crytek developed the CryEngine for Nvidia. To show off its new technology, Crytek created a tech demo of a game called X-Isle: Dinosaur Island that featured a variety of prehistoric creatures stomping around in the wo


With no shortage of kid-friendly platformers on the market, Rare needed an angle for its game to stand out. It eventually decided to rework Twelve Tales: Conker 64 into an adult-oriented game with dark comedy, foul language, blood, gore, drugs, booze, and sexual innuendos gal


For die-hard fans who watched the original Resident Evil 3 trailer frame by frame, there are some among these fans who speculate that they can make out part of a creature that could be a Brain Sucker or Drain Demos. In reality, the footage is simply too unclear to make any conclusions about the mat

Bringing back such a game ahead of its time means Resident Evil 4 's remake has a lot to live up to. That's precisely why Capcom has to perform a very delicate balancing act if Capcom intends to truly remake Resident Evil 4 in the flavor of its most recent remakes. A lot of what the original game introduced to the world of games has now become commonplace for third-person shooters, survival horror games, and other genres in general. That being said, there are plenty of quality-of-life updates Resident Evil 4 deserves that a remake could achieve thanks to innovations made in games from the past dec


Some of the biggest games in history have undergone rather dramatic transformations to the point that they would have been unrecognizable to fans had the devs stuck to their original visions. Here are the 13 most notable examples of games that started out completely differ


Borderlands is known for its cel-shaded art style and quirky sense of humor, but if plans didn't change during development, it could have been a much different game. When Borderlands was first announced, it sported a darker tone and realistic graphics to ma


Additionally, Raccoon City will be much more expansive and will be filled with explosive items that will be extremely useful in temporarily stunning Nemesis or blasting off hordes of zombies. At the moment, the explosive items that were revealed include red barrels that will explode when shot and generators that will send a surge of electrical pulse that will stun Nemesis and any other monsters that are caught in its blast. Just like in the original game, the addition of explosive items adds a new layer of texture to the gameplay and gives players the opportunity to strategize its use. Should they use the red barrel now to kill a few zombies, or is it better to save it for later in case Nemesis drops


There are strong suggestions that Raccoon City's descent into zombie-anarchy and lawlessness will be more deeply explored. More insight may be given of the transitional phase of the story and the few days of buildup leading towards the majority of the Raccoon City's population changing from human to infected zomb


So is Resident Evil 3 a bad remake, focusing on the idea of what a remake should do? Well, the answer to that question is no: it's actually a really good re-imagining of a classic game. By now, Resident Evil fans should know that Capcom hates to be predictable. It is worth remembering that the remakes of both Resident Evil and Resident Evil 2 were more or less faithful to their original counterparts, but with additional storylines and slightly changed mechanics to give veteran players a new experience. Sure, it would have been easier for Capcom to adopt the same formula to Resident Evil 3 , but the studio decided to take a different approach, resulting in an even better sequel for the following reas
