Mercenaries Mode has been a popular mode in Resident Evil for a long time, but now Capcom should give it a starring role (again).
CG writes: In this video we take a look at the original 1996 release of Capcom’s Resident Evil on the PSOne, then go through most of the more popular games in the long-running series. You can see the full list below in chronological order of release (or thereabouts). Sure, there are some notable omissions such as Resident Evil Chronicles and Resident Evil Outbreak 1 & 2 etc. but the video does a great job of highlighting how the game’s visuals progressed over 25 years. The last game in the video showcases the Resident Evil 4 remake which released earlier this year.
Quite amazing how in late 90s those pre-rendered static backgrounds were like the bees knees. I am wondering what a game would look like today if it used the same pre-rendered backgrounds. Are we looking at photo-realistic environments or is there no need when you have games like UNRECORD using UE5?
Ada Wong's Separate Ways side-story from Resident Evil 4 has been restored to the RE4 remake with this must-play DLC.
Is Resident Evil 4 Separate Ways a new high-water mark for RE DLC? Or should Ada have stayed in the shadows?
They tried that years ago and everyone shit all over it, even though it was pretty damn good.
I know I’m the minority here, but I’m not a massive fan of mercenaries. I only play Them for the unlockables, but I think it’s perfect as an optional mode. A full game on it… I know there’s people out there who’d love this, but man… I dunno.
