Given the recent popularity in Souls-like action-adventure games based in mythological or historical East Asian settings, such as Nioh, Sekiro and the upcoming Ghost of Tsushima , a remake of Onimusha could be a smart move by Capcom. It may already be testing the waters, given that Capcom filed for new Onimusha trademarks in 2018, and a remastered version, Onimusha: Warlords Remastered , was released last y
Resident Evil 4 represents a completely different challenge compared to the recently released remakes. Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 both initially came out on the first PlayStation console way back in 1998 and 1999, respectively. Sony's first console didn't have the luxury of rendering highly complex character models or 3D environments, storing larger amounts of data, and any other modern conveniences games from the mid-to-late 2000s onward have. Resident Evil 4 came out for the GameCube in 2005, and though it wasn't necessarily the first fully dimensional Resident Evil game, it was the first to take advantage of next-generation hardware to craft a highly detailed wo
Though the Lost Planet series never really solidified the much needed success of many of Capcom's other franchises, the first Lost Planet is regarded by many of its fans as the best in terms of overall story. The Lost Planet series has always been known for its high difficulty and challenge, and timing-based gameplay in learning the movement patterns and attack rhythms of each enemy, even before the term of Souls-like games were coi
But to balance it all out, and to retain the feel of previous Resident Evil games, Resident Evil 3 still has classic survival-horror elements as seen in the police station and hospital sequences of the game. When players get to control Carlos in the remake, they are taken back to the RPD and almost immediately, the overall vibe of the game changes from high-paced intense action to the claustrophobic nature of Resident Evil 2 . The same applies to the hospital and sewers part of the game, Mario Odyssey Inspiration where players find themselves in a confined space, making every zombie, licker, and hunter, much more terrify
The Lost Planet franchise offers a lot of potential, providing mech-based combat simplified in a fast-paced third person action-adventure control scheme set in a vividly colorful frozen planet. Its insect-like enemy designs, which could be jaw dropping in their enormous size at times, are perhaps Lost Planet's greatest stand
Since the Skate series isn't as dated and Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 had the massive leap in gameplay, it makes logical sense to recreate this game . A reenvisioning of the game could add modes like online multiplayer and other cool featu
A good example of this is the way Brad Vickers died in Resident Evil 3 remake. In the original game, Brad died in front of Jill Valentine, after he was captured and killed by Nemesis. This scene soon became one of the most iconic and memorable deaths in the Resident Evil franchise, and surprisingly enough, Capcom decided not to include this in the remake. Instead, the 2020 reimagining finally gave Brad his redemption arc , allowing him to sacrifice his life to save Jill. Sure it's disappointing that Brad was killed by zombies instead of Nemesis, but the change made for a better story, making Brad's death more meaningful as compared to the original g
Additionally, Resident Evil 3 lacks build-up and most of the time it feels like the game expects that its already players know Resident Evil 3's story and characters from the original game. Moreover, every encounter with Nemesis is scripted , which takes away the element of surprise similar to Resident Evil 2's Mr. X, and while Nemesis is definitely more terrifying than the original, his appearances are mostly predicta
Resident Evil 4 , though featuring plenty of familiar cramped spaces that the franchise was known for, was the first game to truly blow the world out into a more vast, open-air world. The game still remained true to the core of Resident Evil , but Resident Evil 4 was revolutionary not only for the franchise but for games in general. Despite being confined to the series' trademark tank controls, the game was incredibly innovative in perfecting the third-person shooter genre. The over-the-shoulder camera design in Resident Evil 4 greatly succeeded where many other precursor games had experimented and failed in previously. Some of the best third-person shooters released since 2005 have Resident Evil 4 to thank for its incredible aiming technol
Dino Crisis is already rumored for for a remake and is another classic survival horror game made by Capcom, often described as being " Resident Evil with dinosaurs." First released in 1999 on the original PlayStation, Dino Crisis starred multiple characters trying to take back control from a deadly outbreak of dinosaurs on an island where research was being conducted into their revival from extinct
Though Breath of Fire has mainly been exclusive to the Japanese gaming market in recent times, the original Breath of Fire was released on Super Nintendo in North America in 1994, though it is considered a sleeper hit by many JRPG enthusiasts, especially in comparison to other SNES classics such as Earthbound and Dragon Que
