Since 1996, Capcom has been creating genre-defining horror games through their Resident Evil (Biohazard in Japan) franchise. The series has birthed 8 main title games, with multiple remakes of earlier titles and just as many spin-off games. It seems self-evident that Capcom can be considered the original survival horror creators. The studio’s most recent title has just arrived as Resident […]

It’s a game that has dominated my timeline for a little over a month now. And as far as I can tell, it hits you in three […]
Animal Crossing New Horizons and 2016’s Doom have something in common: they’re both perfect games for this moment in time. Also, both their soundtracks kick ass. Recently, I was going through my backlog of games and came across id Software’s Doom reboot. I had picked up the game on release, but never got into it. I knew it reviewed well, […]
