Biohazard: 5 Reasons Code Veronica Should Be The Next Resident Evil Remake (& 5 Reasons It Should Be RE4)

Biohazard: 5 Reasons Code Veronica Should Be The Next Resident Evil Remake (& 5 Reasons It Should Be RE4)

However, the game has proved to be extremely disappointing for fans of the franchise. Street Fighter 5 released to some severe launch-day server issues , with many gamers unable to connect to the title’s vital multiplayer. Given that similar issues arose in both beta tests for the game, many felt that perhaps Capcom could have done more to stop this problem from raising its head once m

However, over recent years, fans have grown a little disheartened with Capcom’s general output. Some have criticized the company for resting on its laurels, and it’s easy to see where that observation comes from. After all, Capcom seems to have kept a large focus on remastered versions of old games, rather than fully embracing the new hardware at its dispo

Named for the mystical inhabitants of Oblivion that occasionally cross over into the game's world , the Daedric Armor is about as demonic as a Dragonborn can get. With its sharpened spikes and hellish glow, dragons may simply surrender once laying eyes on this

Whether or not Capcom can regain momentum remains to be seen, but it would be a shame to see such a great powerhouse of the industry go stale. However, it the company as a whole is not careful, that's exactly where it could end up. At the end of the day, i f Capcom does not start producing these classic games once more, then there will not be any great games to remake in the fut

Another important part of the Grand Theft Auto formula came about by complete accident. Apparently, cops weren't meant to chase players off the road, but they started to do so due to a glitch in the programming. This glitch reportedly led to the "Wanted" system that is still used to this day in the latest entry in the series, Grand Theft Auto

Yet again, however, it's not a game that is likely to set the pulse of any players racing, and gamers could hardly be blamed for suspecting that the title could fall flat upon release. If Capcom is to keep its position in the industry, then a level of innovation needs to be maintained. Perhaps the only sure-fire way to do this is to break this emphasis on remakes and spin-offs, particularly if brand new titles continue to fail to live up to expectati

There are also a few enemies that were in the original Resident Evi l, but were not included in the Remake, such as the Giant Moth. In the original Resident Evil 2 game, the Giant Moth was encountered in the B5F computer room in Umbrella's underground Raccoon City facil

One feature that is lacking from Resident Evil 4 is the ability to run and shoot at the same time. This feature was later introduced in RE6 , while RE4 relied on a "stop and pop" mechanic rather than "run and g

That said, there is still plenty of potential hidden within Capcom, and some games that are trying to push new ground for the company are piquing interest in the community. Although Umbrella Corps , for instance, has caused a few raised eyebrows from fans of the Resident Evil franchise, there are signs that the title could prove to be something to look out for . If nothing else, should Umbrella Corps prove to be an interesting game in its own right, perhaps Capcom will stop trying to shoehorn in action-adventure mechanics in to the main Resident Evil series, where they have been widely rejected by longtime follow

Another enemy from the original Resident Evil 2, which was left out of its remake, was the Giant Spider. In the case of Resident Evil 2 , these were not actually experiments created by Umbrella, but the natural result of spiders that had been accidentally infected by the T-Virus when Dr. Birkin caused its release into the underground sewers. They could be found in the sewers below Raccoon City during the break

The graphics of RE4 holds up better to modern standards relative to Code: Veronica . Aesthetically-wise, a Code: Veronica remake would make better sense over RE4 . While RE4 would definitely benefit from a reboot, it would benefit Code: Veronica even more. Capcom could just remaster RE4 on next-gen consoles once again with improved textures and frame rate, and that would still likely sell decently-well. But for Code Veronica to sell well in the modern era, it'll need to be redone from the ground

When Capcom went back to the drawing board while remaking Resident Evil Nintendo Switch 2, it made complete sense. The original three games revolved around outdated game design, favoring restrictive tank controls and a fixed viewpoint instead of allowing players to pilot both their character and camera with relative ease. Instead of fully altering the world, story, or characters (all the elements which fans loved about Resident Evil 2), the remake restructures the game's obsolete design and transforms it into a horror experience built to thrive in 20

Look at any major video game franchise character these days, and fans are likely to find one thing: the adventures and hardships they endure are lethal to the average human being. While most video game heroes are exceptional in most aspects, some of their invincibility must be credited to the armor they usually wear into combat. In some cases, changing into the finest piece of armor is a necessity before facing the ultimate boss or simply progressing in the st
