Read MoreI think this is finally it: the last showcase of what a lot of us have dubbed Not-E3. Capcom’s a great one to end with, and the company has promised we’ll see more of Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, Exoprimal, and Resident Evil 4. There may be a surprise or two,…
Read MoreThere has been a lot of gaming news today (a lot). One of the bigger pieces of news is that Resident Evil 4 is getting the remake treatment, and that it will release next year. I have a big problem with this. Resident Evil 4 didn’t need to be remade.…
