Other rumors suggest Resident Evil 4 will get the remake treatment next. Is that necessary? It has been ported numerous times in various HD quality enhancements. That said, some things cannot be fixed with mere graphical makeovers. So if the game really is getting remade , here are some things Capcom should, and should not, do with

It has been over 20 years since the game's initial release in February 2000 on Sega's Dreamcast. Although, visually enhanced in 2011, the graphics don't hold up well to today's standa
Now that it has been revealed that the Nemesis parasite has origins or links to the Las Plagas parasite, it's certainly possible that the Las Plagas parasites also helped create the G-Virus, which has many inclusions in various Resident Evil games. This more closely sews the Resident Evil 4 storyline strongly into the fabric of the Resident Evil universe and its hist
The remake of Resident Evil 3 reportedly shipped two million units in five days. There is an obvious hunger from consumers to relive games 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
It all depends on whether Capcom decides to double-down on making Resident Evil 4 Remake a more pure action-game in following on the elements that made the original unique to the series, or whether Capcom wants to create a more hybrid experience between action and realistic survival horror. The hybrid experience may be the more likely trajectory, given that in the past, technology made it difficult to capture the realism and fast-paced action-oriented experience in
This enhanced version of Code Veronica X can be played now on the PS3, Xbox 360, and Xbox One through backwards compatibility. Or if you really want to get old school, fire up a Dreamcast. Play Code Veronica like it originally was inten
Resident Evil 4 Remake could even help tie-in the storyline to Resident Evil 5 much better in moving the timeline forward, and in hopefully creating more relevance and history between the T-Virus and Las Plagas parasite, and much of what has transpired in the Resident Evil plot since then. Resident Evil 5 's storyline also stood out as slightly odd in its own way, given that its plot focuses on the origins of the T-Virus, or Progenitor plant which it came from, <a href="https://Gratisafhalen.be/author/almedadalge/">gratisafhalen.Be</a>; in West Africa where it was originally discovered, but its inclusion in the game is mini
Some observers believe that this revelation could drastically change Resident Evil 4's storyline and explain away the Las Plagas parasites as beings artificially engineered by Umbrella this time around. However, this would completely re-write the Resident Evil 4 storyline, as the Las Plagas parasites would no longer have been discovered by militant cultists hundreds of years
It would be interesting to have a sort of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes type of release for the remake in order to get players excited for it and to also set up Leon better. Maybe they could even include cut content like the ghost house or the Hook
On the subject of the store, let’s get rid of the random assortment of the same types. There are so many 9MM pistols and shotguns in the game. Buying one only to have a better model come around later feels like the money invested in the previous model to be a wa
Fortunately, if a Resident Evil 4 Remake is in the works, it may be getting a richer storyline, or at least one that is more closely sewn to the overall Resident Evil universe and timeline. PlayStation's Tim Turi did an interview with Resident Evil 3 's development team , and the Nemesis monster was revealed to have a clear and direct link to the parasitic creatures in Resident Evil
Updating Code Veronica per modern standards would likely take away much of its charm, fixed camera angles and tank controls included. The magic of fixed camera angles in the PS1 games really played into the survival horror genre, providing numerous jump scares while adding a deeper level of tension knowing that an unseen enemy could be lurking around any corner. Recent RE remakes did away with these features that enhanced the spooky atmosphere of the original ga
However, while Resident Evil 4 has stood the test of time as a classic in horror games and among the best the Resident Evil franchise offers, none of this has not stopped Resident Evil 4 from being viewed as the series more odd standout in terms of storyline. Not only did Resident Evil 4 completely change the game engine, controls, graphical style and turn it into a horror game that aligned closer to a third person action-horror game, but its disconnected storyline also helped make Resident Evil 4 feel as if it reboot the series in a large way, at the time of its original rele
