Spider Man No Way Home Fixes The Worst Spidey Story Ever Written

It’s generally considered to be the worst Spider-Man story ever written; a contrived and hideous editorial exercise, engineered solely to erase Peter and Mary and Watson Parker’s marriage after 20 years of existence; a four-issue monument to everything that is awful and cynical about comic book storytelling and the laziness of retconning previous events. How? What? Why?! After so many years and so many superhero movies, Marvel Studios and several of their competitors have developed a habit of improving on narratives that had interesting ideas but flawed executions in the comic pages....

Splinter Cell Multiplayer Mode Spies Vs Mercs Lives On With New Indie Game Spectre

Resident Evil 2 How To Complete No Way Out

What makes Resident Evil 2 such a strong remake goes beyond its respect for its source material. Resident Evil 2 (2019) isn’t entirely faithful to the PlayStation 1 original, but this isn’t necessarily a fault. If anything, Capcom allowed Resident Evil 2’s remake to carve out its own unique identity in the context of the franchise – much like Resident Evil (2002) before it. Ghost Survivors is a side mode introduced in the remake to flesh out Resident Evil 2’s ancillary cast....

Resident Evil 7 Demo No Longer Requires Ps Plus Subscription

Fans of Capcom’s Beginning Hour demo for its survival-horror title Resident Evil 7 can now download the teaser without the requirement of a PlayStation Plus subscription. As many Resident Evil 7 fans are likely aware at this point, the game’s Beginning Hour demo recently received a “Twilight Version” update that allows players to explore even more of the teaser’s spooky, dilapidated mansion. While that definitely should be exciting to the survival-horror franchise’s legions of followers, perhaps what’s more invigorating is the fact that the demo can now be downloaded on the PS4 without having to own a membership to the PlayStation Plus subscription service....

Resident Evil 7 Lets Fans Smell The Baker Family S Home With 4D Candle

Merchoid announces an official “4D candle” that adds another layer of immersion to the Resident Evil 7 VR experience by tapping into a player’s sense of smell. Virtual reality is really hitting its stride, by providing new ways to experience video games with a level of immersion that can really mess with a player’s sense of what’s real or not. This is likely why horror games like Resident Evil 7 tend to be the peripheral’s bread and butter – they have the capacity to scare the pants off of someone in ways an ordinary 2D experience cannot....

Saeko Is The Female Lead I Ve Always Wanted From Yakuza

Yakuza is a fantastic franchise, but it’s not without its shortcomings. As a fan for over a decade, I’ve come away from each game over the years with an increasing frustration at how the series treats its female characters. Most of them tend to only function in service to male character development, and quite a few of them get rendered helpless far more than the male characters do. This isn’t to say that I don’t love the characters themselves, because I do....
