As you know(and maybe have already played), theResident Evil 5demo has already landed in Japan. This is too high-profile of a game to keep under wraps, Capcom. Gamers are going to play this if they can. This begs the question:why not just release that same demo here?Multiplayerwondered the same thing, asking Capcom the very same question. It seems that complications have held up the demo. What complications? Forgot how to copy and paste?...

With the announcement today of the newResident Eviltitles coming to Wii, it was fairly safe to say that we’d have our hands on some form of video in short order. And now we do. If you venture past the jump, we have the Japanese trailer forResident Evil: The Darkside Chronicleswhich is, if you’ll recall fromearlier this morning, the follow-up to 2008’s on-rails shooter,The Umbrella Chronicles. It looks like more of the same, which wasn’t bad (but not great; I personally found it rather tedious after a bit)....

Sounds like the extra work was worth it WhenRetro City Rampagewas released last year, developer Brian Provinciano was inundated with requests to put the game on the 3DS. It didn’t look likely at first. Brian was already tackling the job of building the game on PC, Wii, Xbox 360, PS3, and PS Vita pretty much on his own. Dealing with all those bugs and player complaints must have been horrific. To put the game on the 3DS as well would involve rebuilding many aspects of it from the ground up, sort out the smaller screen size and resolution, and bunch of other problems....

‘Hiiiiiiii’ And the discoveries keep coming! Zelda: Breath of the Wildis still swinging in 2021, as we approach its fourth (!) anniversary in March. But before that happens,Twitter user HeyImHeroicmanaged to uncover something new: the origin of many NPC designs. A self-dubbed “Mii expert,” HeyImHeroic notes that the NPCs in the game use an “advanced version of the Mii format,” which originates from the Wii era. They explain that it’s possible to “inject Miis into the game,” and convert them into NPCs via modding....

It’s all about the logs Tajikats Shrine is a classic puzzle shrine that requires ingenuity and skill with the new abilities that Link has received inTears of the Kingdom. This shrine can be attempted at any point in the game, as it only requires Link’s abilities from the tutorial to complete. Specifically, every part of this shrine can be surpassed using nothing more than Ultrahand. We’ll take you through each section of this enjoyable shrine, but first, let’s look at where in Hyrule it is located....

If you win three games (across Quick Play, Competitive, or Arcade), you’ll get theMaestro player icon....

Dragon’s Dogma 2was well on its way to the land ofuniversal critical acclaim… then everything changed when themicrotransaction nation attacked. Right before the game’s release, people learned thatDragon’s Dogma 2would feature the option for players to pay for an easier experience. Many didn’t take it kindly, which you can attest to by looking at thegame’s Steam reviews. Even though the microtransactions present in the game are far from the worst we’ve seen in Capcom’s history, they still hit like an unnecessary betrayal — even worse, they’re predictable and boring....

It flies One of the most common allegations levied towardNo Man’s Skyin the weeks following its release was that the marketing campaign was misleading. People expected to find vibrant planets full of incredible wildlife. That turned out to be the exception rather than the norm. Instead, people found a lot of emptiness. The disappointment led 23 people to file complaints to the United Kingdom’s Advertising Standards Authority (ASA). These complainants asserted that both Valve and Hello Games were guilty of misleading advertising, and that the “game content was not as depicted or described....

You’ll find new mixes for songs like Clown Man’s theme, Elec Man, Centaur Man, and Freeze Man, and all of them are arranged in a pretty unique way....
