@kyleforrester87 I was just gonna say your exact comment! Dino Crisis and Code Veronica would definitely be huge upgrades over the original games, whereas I dont see how they could significantly improve RE4 as-is, aside from graphics.
Also: Removing all the humor would be a huge mistake, IMHO! I love all the goofy stuff in these games.
I never got past the train part in the original (I got FFIX at the time and that took over), and I actually have no idea what happens for the rest of the game. With how far off this remake is, I think I’m gonna play through the original first, as opposed to playing this fresh for the first time.
@Flaming_Kaiser Yep! And one other thing I just thought of...of all those games we’ve been talking about, Fortnite is the only one where you can ACTUALLY SEE your own character and skin in-game, lol.
I still can’t imagine enjoying this game, based on what I’ve seen. Looks like a 5/10, honestly. Oddly enough, the production values alone still put this near the top of my most wanted list, lol.
@Flaming_Kaiser With Overwatch, there was one Legendary Sombra skin I wanted for 1000 gold and I only ever got up to 450. Even then, that skin was basically just a lazy texture swap with some spikes on it, and yet it was STILL too much to ask for, lol.
@Flaming_Kaiser I agree! Also, skins nowadays just feel like “oh you wasted money on that” or “oh you grinded for 200 hours to get that.” I like how in the latest COD they put more emphasis on skins that you unlock by actually doing something impressive in the game, like beating a certain co-op mission.
@Flaming_Kaiser With the Battle Pass, all the skins are preset. The only way you can pick a specific skin you want is to use the in-game money, and all of the nice skins are $12 basically. I used all of the free in-game money I got to buy one of these kinda skins (since I’m not planning to use it for next season’s pass), and I also picked up a $5 promo skin they have every once in a while which gives you a skin and $6 of in-game money. It’s definitely all kind of a rip-off, but it beats the $20 I spent on Overwatch getting lootboxes full of garbage I never used.
@Flaming_Kaiser The cool thing about the Fortnite Battle Pass is that you earn just enough in-game money doing it that you can pay for the next season’s pass (3 seasons a year). So technically you can just buy the pass once and play forever! Personally I thought it was fun and didn’t feel like a grind, but to each their own. I rarely play one game for more than 40 hours, and so I’m probably gonna shelve this one soon, but I was mostly pleasantly surprised by how many nice skins you got and other stuff in lieu of the trash Ive seen in every single other battle pass. All for $10.
30-40 hour Battle Pass with Fortnite, and pushing 50-60 if you want all of the alternate skins. Good value for $10, especially since most of the skins are high quality IMHO, and not just lazy pallets swaps like in some other games.
Hated that game for a long time but I just got into it and now I’d highly recommend it, lol. Just don’t tell anyone IRL or they’ll ostracize you.
As for this game...I’m already burned out and I think I’ve only got like 12 hours into it, lol.
@Stragen8 Yeah, some consistency would be nice! Like the article suggests, however, this isn’t the first or second time they’ve changed Jill’s appearance, so it’s par for the course.
The “Julia Voth” version of Jill has always been my favorite, so I’m not super happy with the redesign, but I felt the same about RE2 Remake and that definitely changed by the end of the game.
Nice! Time to reinstall it. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again...I HIGHLY recommend people try the Heroes & Villains mode...4v4 battles where everyone plays as one of the main characters!
@shonenjump86 There’s too many fighting games, not enough time! I just regretfully uninstalled KoF14, DOA6, and Tekken 7 last week and decided to only focus on getting better at MK11, SoulCalibur VI, and possibly Street Fighter V (Lucia is just too fun to play as, otherwise I woulda uninstalled that too, or at least until the next edition update).
MKX has been on sale for $5 a buncha times, so I would think those numbers don’t mean as much as it might suggest, haha.
Anyway...MK11 is by far my favorite fighting game this generation, for the reasons others have listed above. Great fighting mechanics (blows MKX away IMHO), insane graphics, cool characters...only bad thing is the story mode ending that makes me feel weird about even my own existence!
Nice write up! The price at the end kinda killed me, lol. More and more, I’ve been adapting to a standard gamepad and setting my arcade stick aside, mostly because that’s what I end up with when going to friends’ places. Practicing with a stick and then having an impromptu battle with someone using a regular controller just kinda messes up my rhythm!
@Rossif3r I’ve been playing it solo and it’s really not that bad. I’ve yet to come anywhere close to finishing it, but personally I like it better as a solo experience.
Gah! I think I’ll wait for the PC version, since I’m sure this will make my PS4 sound like a jet engine (like every non-2D game does at this point).
Short of cleaning it, which I often do, what’re we supposed to do, short of buying a new console (which is dumb with the PS5 a year away)? I’m not about to crack it open and re-apply gel to the heatsink or whatever!
@huyi one reason I started playing a lot of COD is that the online community is guaranteed to last until the next installment, which makes it the only non-cartoony, non-BR multiplayer shooter out there where the servers won’t go dead shortly after launch (otherwise I’d be playing LawBreakers and Killzone Shadowfall, R.I.P.).
This year’s installment ups the ante with cross play, which ended up being the selling point for me since I can now play with friends across Xbox, PC, and PS4. It’s definitely samey, and I used to scoff at the yearly releases, but it’s a reliable series that does just enough new stuff each year to trick me into buying it, lol.
Wait...you have to PAY for this? Lame! Also, what about match replays? Last I checked, they still didn’t have them. All of this is why I have yet to make TEKKEN 7 a priority...such a lack of training tools!
Already preordered MW to play with a buddy. If he didn’t want to play it so badly, I definitely woulda cancelled it on principal alone! The campaign with the female Kurdish freedom fighters at least has some political merit.
Outerworlds will be free on my $1 GamesPass subscription on PC. Even when the price jumps up to $5 next month, it just feels dirty being subscribed to that sometimes...
At the very least, it’d be cool to see some more collections or re-masters with trophies.
Dino Crisis and Darkstalkers top my list of sequels or remakes I’d like to see, and Megaman Legends and Haunting Ground are the re-releases I want most.
The cutscenes and characters look cool, and an emotional story is especially appealing. But I just can’t really leverage this against the gameplay...it’s like a backpacking simulator, more or less, where simple things in other games like crossing a river or walking up a hill (or just walking in general) become a tedious micromanagement process...???
Purposely avoided watching any gameplay of this, but I caved today. Now I’m suddenly not interested in any of the other games I was gonna buy this holiday season...thanks, NG for saving me money!
I guess I still don’t get it. You deliver packages, and you have to asses the delivery route beforehand and prepare accordingly by setting waypoints and packing the correct gear, which includes ladders that just let you climb in a straight line over the environment? Honestly, on paper it doesn’t sound all that new and exciting, and the somewhat mundane gameplay seems at odds with the strange and beautiful art direction. That last item is what makes this game compelling to me, so I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on it...
Nice review. Love the pros and cons at the end, btw. I know you’ve been doing it for a while, but it deserves recognition as a recent positive change!
Only thing I would still recommend is a quick one-paragraph hot-take and score from some other staff who might’ve also played it. After all, one person’s 6/10 could be another person’s 9/10! It’s all subjective anyway, so why not throw some extra opinions in there?
Gah, I can’t stand frame rate drops below 30 FPS. No matter how much horsepower you give devs, they always go beyond their means. Tsk tsk. Maybe next gen we’ll FINALLY get 1080p, 60 FPS across the board, but I know we won’t.
Sounds like I’ll wait for the PC release to go on sale. That way I’ll be able to run it at a solid 60 FPS at least, compared to this version.
And this looks like it’s exactly the game for me, but not really worth $60. Paying full price is usually too much pressure to enjoy the game, lol. Like, “This is good. I don’t know about $60 good, but it’s good...”
The best thing about it is that the enemy is in front of you typically, so you hardly get shot in the back! That’s why ALL multiplayer maps need to be 3-lane maps with fixed spawn points!
What? No Shaggy from Scooby Doo? BOOO!! The petitions were for nothing!
But anyway, I love that they revealed the whole thing finally...nothing worse than buying a season pass without knowing what’s gonna be in it (even tho that’s exactly what I did, heh).
My wife has completely taken over the PS4, so I’ve been stuck with my PC and Switch for the past couple years...that’s why I want a PC port, lol! Not to mention that even my old laptop runs certain newer games better than the base PS4 (which I have), so unless I got a PS4 Pro, that would be a less than optimal experience anyway for Kojima’s ladder-climbing masterpiece.
Thanks for having these kinda articles for all the various live gaming events, like this and EVO. Makes it super easy to be a part of the excitement, whereas on most other sites we get a tiny article after the event’s already over.

Aside from the fact that all the great animal mascots have an accessory (whether its shoes or a backpack or a tie), it also just kinda looks off when you have a plain monkey shooting a gun. It could also be an opportunity to explain at a glance why a tropical monkey is in a woodland forest and all these other habitats you wouldn’t normally find a tamarin. Maybe a backpack to show he’s traveled far from his home?
I haven’t played a Spiders game since Mars: War Logs because quite frankly they look exactly the same, just with a different setting. It’s more like Witcher-lite, imho. It might be interesting to check this out and see if they’ve improved...in Mars they had really rough stuff like a romance option that goes from “Nice to meet you” to “I love you” in literally 10 minutes of standing there talking!
@Cutmastavictory Summer is absolutely the worst time to release a game! I’m fairly introverted, but I still manage to get out so much that I’ve missed or passed a lot of summer-released games, even through they’ve been #1 on my wishlists. Like Kill La Kill IF this year and LawBreakers before it, for example.
@East76landS I think it’s worth checking out, if only for a couple hours. The first one I played was PUBG, and I honestly think that’s the best of the bunch.

Nothing sucks more than running around for 10 minutes only to get suddenly blindsided and killed by another player or squad. At least when it’s third person you can see the attack coming a little better. Just my thoughts!

Re: Talking Point: Should Capcom Remake Resident Evil 4?
@kyleforrester87 I was just gonna say your exact comment! Dino Crisis and Code Veronica would definitely be huge upgrades over the original games, whereas I dont see how they could significantly improve RE4 as-is, aside from graphics.
