Capcom Gives Fans Resident Evil Director’s Cut – Today in Retro Gaming – September 30th, 1997
September 29th, 2016 Carl Williams When Capcom released the original Resident Evil onto the Sony Playstation console it was unique. Never before had gamers been presented with a 3D horror game like this before. No, I am not counting Alone in the Dark here as that was more of a 3D adventure game with monsters. Resident Evil was a 3D […]

Last Stitch Goodnight Kickstarter Campaign Funded
August 28th, 2016 Carl Williams Out of body experiences probably suck. I have never had one that I remember but I have not heard good things about them. Last Stitch Goodnight follows this train of thought too as things are less than glorious for your character. Besides experiencing an out of body experience you have been kidnapped by an evil […]

Resident Evil Code Veronica Drops PlayStation for Dreamcast – February 29th, 2000 – Today in Video Game History
February 29th, 2016 Carl Williams Resident Evil – Code: Veronica was a seminal title for the Sega Dreamcast. Why? When Sony launched the PlayStation console in mid 90’s it was quite a surprise move.

Why Robowarrior is More Survival Horror than Resident Evil
September 10th, 2015 Carl Williams When Capcom released Resident Evil for the Sony Playstation everyone was cheering this new “survival horror” genre that was just created. The problem is, this genre was older than most people remember it just didn’t have the name survival horror at the time. Sure, there were other horror games prior to Robowarrior but they were […]

Dollhouse coming to the Playstation 4, PC, Mac and Linux, Horror Fans Prepare
August 13th, 2015 Carl Williams Horror. This is a genre that has not exactly been able to take off with gaming. Sure, titles like Resident Evil are promoted as “survival horror” but there is not much “horror” to be had in that whole series (the dogs is one of the few scare moments I remember). Horror games are in a […]

Resident Evil Minimalistic Would Look Like White Night
March 14th, 2015 Carl Williams Resident Evil was not the first horror game, nor was it the “best” but it was marketed extremely well and it got people interested.

Bandit Gaming: Another Unofficial Resident Evil 2 Remake in the Works Using the Unreal Engine
September 21st, 2014 Carl Williams I remember the fervor that built up around the Resident Evil series, not once but twice, over the years. The first time was the release of the original game on Playstation- magazines such as Gamefan and Electronic Gaming Monthly were covering it like crazy showing pics from early builds and following the story.
