They grow up so fast. Sniff Twenty years ago today,Resident Evilopened its mansion doors to a whole new genre of video games. It on was June 04, 2025, that we first met Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, Barry Burton’s beard and Albert Wesker’s hair. Capcom plans to spend the rest of the year celebrating, and will release a series of interviews and commentaries from original team members who had “a vital role” in developing the game, the genre, and the multi-million dollar brand....

My money is on the latter Nintendo has been embracing modern console gaming sensibilities — and that includes season passes, paying for online play, and remakes. The former two are a relatively new development, but Nintendo has been in the remake game for a while, which only helps the case that they’re prepping more projects like that on the Switch. Speaking to French outlet Melty, Nintendo producer Yoshiaki Koizumi confirmed that they are working on something related to a GameCube Virtual Console....

Great games for a good cause Itch.io is known for its bundles of indie games that raise money for worthy causes, like theBlack Lives Matter movementback in 2020 or forUkraineearlier this year. Now thatRoe v. Wade has been overturned, itch.io has turned its sights to creating a bundle of indie games to raise money for abortion funds.The bundle has over 750 items from over 600 creators, valued at around $3000, but you’re able to get it for a minimum donation of $10 (although of course, anything more than that is awesome)....

Platinum is busy Earlier this year, Platinum rockstar producer Hideki Kamiya explained thatthey would probably have something to show forBayonetta 3at some point this year. So what better time to check in on that than (checks watch) two weeks later? Speaking to VGC, Kamiya explains that it’s still very early in the year yet for updates: “It’s not really our position to say, but… it’s January. We’ve got to have something come out, right?...

Having already gotten to thebig storybehind my trip to Hudson, I thought I’d give you guys a little bit more info as to the goings-on of this epic day and how it all went down. Photos, anecdotes, and the most amazing Bomberman tournament that has ever been — why? Well, you’ll just have to read and find out. Let’s just say that no office in all of San Francisco was so alive with expletives as Hudson was that afternoon....

Mafia: The Old Countrybrings out the tales of the old with the newest horse-riding features and classic shoot-em-up adventures. The gameplay trailer alone gave me majorRed Dead Redemption 2vibes, with dusty trails, tense standoffs, and that gritty cinematic charm. And honestly, I’m loving this new approach. While pastMafiagames were set in the modern era (loosely speaking, since they were set post-1930s),Old Countryrewinds the clock to the early 1900s, right in the heart of Sicily....

Protagonist is a guy with pretty hair Famitsuhas the scoop on the main characters and setting of upcoming 3DS gameShin Megami Tensei IV. Forget the modern-day setting we’ve grown accustomed to. This new one takes place in the distant past, in 1492, in medeval-ish East Mikado, beginning in a high-walled city. It’s a world of samurais, where some of them become secret demon hunters. That’s the case for the 18-year-old ponytailed protagonist....

Block Man? More like this rocks, man! Unlike most of the other games I’ll play at E3, a single level ofMega Man 11is actually enough to give a comprehensive look at the quality of the final product. There are two available for my session — Block Man and Fuse Man — and I will only have time to complete one before I move on to bigger and bloodier things. As my Capcom handler breaks down the controls for me, I have some apprehension about the changes made to the series....

The efficacy of taunting Core-A Gaming recently put up an cool little mini-doc on YouTube that deals with the philosophy of taunting in fighting games. It goes over some examples in the community, the reasoning behind why it works, and shifts into a great breakdown of how to condition your opponent. As someone who has been playing fighting games for over two decades, I know the feeling of playing someone who can’t deal with a particular tactic and spamming it to victory and tilting them with taunts....

SNK will unveil their little bundle of joy During the festivities of the E3 pre-show press conferences, Japanese publisher SNK will host a live stream for theirrecently announcedretro device, the Neo Geo Mini. Titled “The Legacy Lives On”, information about the stream itself is pretty thin, although many are expecting the long-time arcade developer to showcase the Neo Geo Mini in action, as well as announce a price and a street date for the portable unit, that comes with a 3,5 inch screen, HDMI support, and pre-loaded with 40 classic Neo Geo titles....

Isn’t that a cool logo? I like all that squiggly stuff behind the text, and there are some eyeballs behind there that kinda remind me ofPatapon, which also has a nice logo. Anyway,Viral Survival‘s coming to WiiWare, and is touted as an “escape action game” where the main goal is survival. Hence, the term “survival” in the title. Players control a DNA unit dodging enemy viral attacks. In this case though, I’m reasonably certain that “viral” does not refer to current marketing strategies forDante’s InfernoorBioshock 2....
