So I died twice in Alan Wake II because this dead dude suddenly got up and seemed mad. I didn't run for the exit in time to pick up the gun on the floor. But it's actually easy. Gimme some clue the next time. Meh.

Even if it doesn't return, the summer always has other events that are practically the same as E3 anyway. As does the fall, etc. So what are we really gonna be missing out on here? Also, companies often run their own showcases from time to time. And I like it when they get announced randomly. Kind of like giving someone an unexpected surprise when they need a little pick me up.

So when it became apparent that Capcom couldn't be arsed bringing back Dino Crisis - somebody developed this. Well, it's like if zombies did not invade Raccoon City, but dinosaurs did instead, the result would be this gem of a low budget game...

If anybody gives you a hard time online, it's best to ignore them, because they probably have thin skin and it probably wasn't your fault they got offended. Most of the people who act like that are just attention-seeking losers with an inferiority complex, who want to be right 24/7 and have no friends offline to brag of. I've been dealing with a radge pot from Australia who is a lot like this, so I know the feeling.

I hope Barbarian gets a physical release one day. I'm a collector, so this is essential to me. But more and more, I can see everything being sold as a download in the future.

Admittedly, there was a few bumps on the road over the last several years, with RE8 especially being in Bizarre Land. Like, come on. Lady D was just a fad. The DLC for RE4 is surprisingly good, in my opinion. Although, yes. RE4 has always been more of a third person action adventure game, as opposed to being a traditional survival horror game. After all, you buy your equipment rather than finding it most of the time. Then of course, the enemies drop bullets as if it were candy in a vending machine. Nonetheless, the latest animated movie was enjoyable, with Chris being berated by the main villain for slacking off. And while Julia Voth will always be the best Jill Valentine, I must say, hell. At least she's finally back.

Isn't Netflix mostly full of B level trash? To be honest, Prime Video is way better. I think Netflix is good, but it depends what they have available to watch.

I may check out Evil West.

I'd take that over Umbrella Corps.

A handful of RE fans may disagree, but I don't really care for 'the Winters saga' in the recent RE games. These games don't even feel like RE games anyway. And I thought Capcom was just trying to be like Konami, especially with what they had going on in RE8. But since these games are still quite popular, I don't know if you can say they are a low point of the series. Some people even think RE7 revived the series, after all of the action heavy entries since RE4 onwards that arguably betrayed the survival horror roots. But if you're going off of your own feelings, then yeah. RE7 and 8 aren't that hot, in my opinion. So what is the lowest point for the RE franchise, then? That's likely RE6.

I cannot wait.

There's horror games I'll definitely love to buy, but that's way into the future. I hardly receive any replies on here anymore. So I wanted to keep this short and sweet.

Anybody seen Barbarian yet?

My little sis started watching it on Netflix. She enjoys it a lot, and recognised a lot of the songs they use throughout the episodes.

The song "Running up That Hill" by Kate Bush is at number one this week, because this 1985 hit was recently used in Stranger Things. What's old is now new again. LOL!

Well for myself, quite frankly, I am more interested in the new PS5 multiplayer game. We'll probably not be getting any further news about it for a while, but it's great that Naughty Dog can finally focus on new characters. Not that I wouldn't want to see Ellie, Abby or Lev again. Maybe they could all turn up in the third, official entry. I'm assuming this game set in San Francisco, is meant to be a separate, side story kind of adventure.

Looking forward to it this October. The full game can now be enjoyed in third person from when the additional content becomes available. But I think Ethan's face will still not be clearly seen. His daughter Rosemary is getting her own storyline, in third person too.

What do you think of the Dead Space type game? Is that a spin off?

The new The Last of Us spin off sounds excellent. However, I guess it could still be far off. 2023, or 2024 maybe. At least Naughty Dog, I'll say something that needs to be said. They're known to take their time with their products, and it comes out all the better for it. Edited for a lousy incorrect year. 2014 is the past. Or did I type 2024?

Bethesda, maybe you can surprise us by unveiling The Evil Within 3.

As always, Capcom are just up to their old money grabbing ways. The upcoming Netflix series looks rank as well, and they claim it's canonical. How is Wesker black now? Maybe it's a different Albert Wesker. It's pointless to remake RE4 when it's already widely available. Will likely end up feeling like a downgrade, as was the case with RE3, and even 2. Yes, 2. That game got a lot of positive reviews, but it had way too much cut content. I just wish they would stop rehashing past glory for to make a fast buck.

As predicted, RE4 may have a lot of things extracted from it. That's typical of Capcom. But do note that this hasn't been verified yet. I still think fans are going to go wild once it's formally revealed, nonetheless.

Look what people are talking about again. Any chance of it being revealed this summer? https://youtu.be/N8k57cWz1Bg

Of course, a new rumour popped up about Resident Evil 9. But I think Capcom would likely prefer to promote the remake of RE4 first. I hope they reveal something this summer. :-)
