I love the Resident Evil series. It is honestly one of my favourite series despite the fact I spent an inordinate amount of time complaining about the games. But no matter how many times I am burnt by some shonkey…

I love Resident Evil Rebirth, the GameCube remake of the original gangsta that is Resident Evil, but even I am getting bored of remakes of remakes of remakes. Including the Directors Cut this is the 4th version of one game,…

Resident Evil 5, Capcom (2009) Xbox360

Resident Evil 5 is an odd one for me. It has a Metacritic score of 83, but I have never met somebody with a good thing to say about it. Even on Reddit nobody really defends 5 (but a lot…

Resident Evil 4, Capcom, (2005) Nintendo Wii

Posted on August 12, 2014 by Van Rockingham — 5 Comments

I am not sure how to do this one. Resident Evil 4 is a great game, but is it really a Resident Evil game? For the uninitiated, there is no Umbrella, there are no Zombies, there are no Tyrants, no…

To be honest, I am not very sure why I am reviewing this. I was on holiday, I only had my Wii, had finished Resident Evil 4, and I needed a game to play. I wasn’t expecting much and I was STILL…

Firstly, for clarity… This is a slightly revised version for the Gamecube of Code: Veronica, it featured slightly better graphics, and about 9 minutes of extra cut scenes. The original version of Code: Veronica was release in 2001 for the…
