Horror Games That Need A High Definition Remake

Many games in recent times have been given an HD reboot to be compatible with more recent gamming consoles, Resident Evil (Biohazard) has been given a complete makeover with an all new HD game called Resident Evil (Biohazard) HD Remaster that’s available on PlayStation 4, PC and Xbox One. This would be the game’s second makeover so I thought why stop with this game? There are some horror games in the past that I think are due for an “HD Remaster” makeover too. So here are a few games that I feel deserve a reboot into the HD age in no particular order. Alone in the Dark (PC, 1992) There is a game by the same title that was made in 2008 that’s part of the long game series, I’m talking about the original game that you played on DOS in the 90’s (real 90’s kids know this!) the game is actually considered the first survival horror game to be

9 Zombie Video Game Clichés That Need To Stop

Zombies are fun. Zombie movies are fun to watch. Zombie video games are more fun! There’s nothing like taking your frustrations out on a bunch of virtual undead eating machines and coming out on top. Some games offer you this and then some but over time there are elements in these games that have been done once or twice that start to become overused to the point that they become an annoying cliché that makes the genre repetitive and no longer fun. Since many developers are starting to get into the “immersion” fad. In gaming, culture immersion is when developers want the player(s) to feel like they are literally in the game, generally, this is applied towards VR devices like Oculus Rift but this practice is starting to find its way into non-VR games. For example, the winter sports game Steep the game can only be played online in a public lobby which many gaming fans find annoying (which it

Milla Jovovich To Play The Villain In ‘Hellboy: Rise Of The Red Queen’

The cast of Neil Marshall’s Hellboy: Rise of the Blood Queen is beginning to take shape. Last week, it was announced that ‘American Gods’ actor Ian McShane had signed for the film featuring David Harbour as Hellboy. Today, we have more casting news. It has now been revealed that Milla Jovovich has been cast as the villain of the film, the Red Queen. Jovovich has long played Alice, the hero of the long running Resident Evil franchise whose last sequel, Resident Evil: The Final Chapter, opened in theaters this past January. It is an interesting coincidence that Jovovich came face to face with the A.I. that ran by the Umbrella Corporation’s tasks in Resident Evil, its name, the Red Queen. The two queens are not connected in the film world, they simply have the same name. In Rise of the Red Queen, Hellboy will face off against a medieval sorceress who seeks to destroy humankind. The film which is aiming

James Wan To Direct The First Film In The RESIDENT EVIL Franchise Reboot

A few days we informed you that just as Resident Evil: the Final Chapter was released on DVD, a reboot of the franchise is already in the works. Today, we have a update. News has come that genre heavy-hitter James Wan will be in the director’s chair for the first film of six that is planned. Wan is behind films such as The Conjuring, Insidious, Saw, and Annabelle. While the thought of another reboot doesn’t thrill me, I am a huge fan of Wan. Could he improve the story? Yes, probably, but I’m just not sure that horror fans really want to see six new Resident Evil films. Not to mention, fans have grown to know and love the main character Alice (Milla Jovovich) are they really interested in seeing someone else play the role or see a different character all together? Jovovich had this to say when asked for her opinion on the reboots by ComicBook.com: They’ve announced a

RESIDENT EVIL Receives the Reboot Order Less Than Six Months After The Series Ends

Alongside The Matrix and Underworld, Resident Evil was one of the original “attractive people in leather kick ass” films, released all the way back in 2002, with an array of less and less impressive sequels following. The powers at be finally decided to put a bullet in the gassy franchises head with Resident Evil: The Final Chapter earlier this year, but apparently this series is a lot like the zombies that inhabit it; unable to die, and dangerous to the brains of anyone who gets to close. According to Bloody-Disgusting, a reboot is in the works less than six months after the The Final Chapter limped its way out of theaters. While there’s no denying these films make good money (300 Mil on a 40 Mil budget is a tidy profit for any movie, let alone horror), but I doubt I’m alone in wondering why. If I want to watch an attractive lady in leather, I’ll hire a dominatrix. Hell,

Resident Evil Collectible Looks Like A Zombie’s…You Just Have To See It For Yourself

There are thousands of different horror collectibles out there, from figures, art, clothing, to almost everything you can think of. One interesting item by Japan’s Biohazard Ambassador events is a Resident Evil USB port item, and it looks a lot like a burnt or zombified penis. While meant to be a zombie finger like the one in the game, it doesn’t resemble a finger at all until it’s bent. But come on, if you were going to make a finger, wouldn’t you give it something resembling a finger nail? When it is straight, it just looks like a dong that’s charred. Did Lorena Bobbitt design this thing? To make matters worse, the “finger” will be included in Gamestop’s exclusive collector’s edition. I’m sorry, I just can’t stop laughing at this thing. Is this what happens to a zombie when it turns? What do you think this “collector’s item” looks like? Source: Kotaku.com
