Fans Are Not Happy With ‘Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City’

Johannes Roberts promised fans of the popular survival horror game series “Resident Evil” that the upcoming film Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City would be closer to the source material than Paul W.S. Anderson’s film series that pretty much had nothing to do with the games (a trend with his works based on video games). Fans were excited to learn that the film will combine the first two Resident Evil games and were pretty much on board with the film…till yesterday (August 30, 2021) when the first three production stills were released showing the cast and instantly divided fans. The one picture that really irked fans were the image of Resident Evil 2’s main heroes, Leon and Clair and fans were quick to show disappointment in the casting of Avan Jogia as Leon with many saying his appearance made him look more like Carlos (Resident Evil 3) than Leon. Some fans were also quick to criticize the appearance of the

Game Review: ‘Resident Evil: Village’

A big thank you to CAPCOM for making this review possible and allowing me to get the chance to head off into the village, what awaits me in Resident Evil: Village? Let’s take a Spoiler-Free look! Resident Evil: Village takes place after the events of Resident Evil 7: Biohazard where Ethan and Mia have settled down and have had a daughter, Rose, after moving to Europe. The peace is ruined when Chris Redfield comes takes Rose away. Ethan then wakes to find himself in a strange village where horrors and Rose awaits. Now onto Resident Evil: Village itself! It’s safe to say that if you have not played RE7 yet, you really should as it will get you up to speed story-wise as well as the controls. The controls in this game pretty much handle the same but there are some changes, good changes I’ll add, that’s a step up from the previous, I’ll go into that later. Graphics-wise, I’m

Game Review: ‘Resident Evil 3’

CAPCOM was awesome enough to allow me a chance to experience to see that regardless of what’s going on in the world right now, there could be zombies and a large bio-weapon chasing me! Of course, I’m talking about Resident Evil 3, the latest installment in the remake boom that came to the franchise last year with the outstanding Resident Evil 2, but does RE3 keep the momentum going? This is a spoiler-free review so it’s safe sailing ahead! Resident Evil 3 takes place slightly before and during the events of Resident Evil 2 (just like in the original) and follows our heroine Jill Valentine as she tries to escape the horrors of Raccoon City as the T-Virus outbreak turns the citizens into Zombies. Jill must also face mutants and the fearsome Nemesis that pursues her with the objective to kill members of the S.T.A.R.S. unit. I’m quite impressed with how easy the controls are and being able to remember

First Impression: ‘Resident Evil 3’ Demo

Nearly twelve hours ago I waited downloaded the Resident Evil 3 Demo and gave it a shot and I was impressed! The demo is roughly 20 minutes long but definitely shows you what you’re going to get yourself into when the full game comes out! Judging by the events in the Demo, this playthrough is taking place somewhere in the middle of the storyline As Jill is brought in to meet Carlos’s commanding officer who unlike in the original Resident Evil 3, is not completely incapacitated. The demo shows a bit of everything that you will encounter in the main game like puzzle solving, reading documents, crafting health and ammo, and of course combat. If you’re wondering, yes its true Nemesis is in the demo as well and he can really kick your ass! After completing the demo I was treated with a new trailer for the game that showed a bit more of what we will be seeing in
