Re: Resident Evil Thread
Resident Evil Village comes to iOS and in this video, we concentrate on how this triple-A PC port looks and runs on Apple's recently release iPhone 15 Pro. The truth is, you're getting a unified iOS/MacOS port that's essentially a close relation of the PC version, meaning that even on the go with iPhone or iPad, you have access to the complete range of PC's settings and presets - plus MetalFX upscaling. It's an interesting project... but just how well does it work?

Capcom Confirms More Resident Evil Remakes Are Coming
But what's next?
After the success of the Resident Evil 2, 3, and 4 remakes, Capcom has confirmed plans to continue the trend, although stopped short of announcing which Resident Evil game is next in line for the remake treatment.
At a PlayStation partner awards event in Japan, attended and translated by IGN Japan, Resident Evil 4 remake director Yasuhiro Anpo said the company will announce its next Resident Evil remake in due course.
"Yes," Anpo replied when asked if Capcom wants to keep making Resident Evil remakes. "We've released three remakes so far and they have all been received very well. Since it allows a modern audience to play these games, it is something I am happy to do as someone that loves these older games, and we want to continue doing more.
"What game we will remake in the future is something that we would like to announce in the future, so please look forward to it."
With Resident Evil 2, 3, and 4 remakes already out, thoughts turn to which game Capcom will tackle next. Fans have long called for a remake of Sega Dreamcast classic Resident Evil Code: Veronica, which first launched in 2000. While the game was remastered for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and is available to play via backwards compatibility, a current-gen remake would bring a new wave of players to the title on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC.
Alternative choices include the original Resident Evil and Resident Evil 0, or moving on to the more action oriented Resident Evil 5.
"When developing a new game, there is no way to know what will be received well by the players, which makes it difficult," Anpo continued. "In the case of a remake, there are already players that have played the original, which I think can be seen as an advantage. We are very grateful to users that are vocal about their opinion. It allows us to develop with the player's opinion in mind. For example, if this is how the players feel, then maybe we can make it like this. I think this is one of the reasons why our remakes are so well received."
During the same Q&A, Yoshiaki Hirabayashi, producer of the Resident Evil 4 remake, said remaking Resident Evil games with Capcom's own RE Engine has its benefits, indicating Capcom plans to stick with the engine for future projects.
"We use RE Engine for many of our titles," Hirabayashi said. "It is true that sharing information (between teams) has greatly benefited the speed of development."
Resident Evil 4 remake launched in March and was a smash hit. IGN's Resident Evil 4 remake review returned a 10/10, as we said: "The Resident Evil 4 remake is the series' most relentlessly exciting adventure rebuilt, refined, and realised to the full extent of its enormous potential."
Resident Evil 3 remake launched in April 2020, and Resident Evil 2 remake came out in January 2019. Perhaps fans won't have long to wait before Capcom announces the next Resident Evil remake.

You love to see it. I'm weary of GOG's ties with Amazon though, hope they keep it DRM free.

Re: Resident Evil Thread
When I searched for this thread yesterday, it didn't show up, but here it is, so I've moved the retro thread posts to here.
In joint efforts with the original creators, Capcom, we’re thrilled to announce the re-release of the original Resident Evil™, the groundbreaking series that heralded the golden age of the survival horror genre!
This iconic classic is now available with all its original content intact, featuring quality of life improvements and enhanced compatibility for modern systems. As part of GOG’s ongoing effort to protect and preserve classic games, Resident Evil is now available on the DRM-free GOG store!
Capcom's Resident Evil series has defined and revolutionized the survival horror genre, with the original Resident Evil, Resident Evil™ 2, and Resident Evil™ 3: Nemesis being standout titles that have captivated gamers worldwide. While Resident Evil set the stage, introducing players to the eerie Spencer Mansion and navigating them through terrifying encounters and intricate puzzles, its atmospheric tension and innovative gameplay mechanics laid the foundation for the series' success. Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3: Nemesis successfully expanded the universe, delivering unforgettable experiences that deepened the franchise's lore and horror elements.
That’s not all, though – for the complete Resident Evil experience, we decided to invite someone special to tell us something more about the series. It’s Suzi Hunter, also known as TheSphereHunter! In an exclusive video, Suzi will introduce the history of the franchise and tell the story of its originals’ revival, while interviewing some of the most interesting figures that took part in the process – including GOG’s very own Technical Producer, Adam Ziółkowski, as well as Head of Business Development, Bartosz Kwietniewski. The video will go live soon, and you’ll be able to watch it HERE – so stay tuned!
That being said – Resident Evil is now live on GOG, DRM-free! You can also wishlist Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, or pre-purchase them alongside Resident Evil in a special Bundle – you wouldn’t want to miss this occasion!
