Now that E3 is out of the way and the dust has started to settle, we thought it'd be a good idea to collect together all of the articles and previews we've written about this year's E3 and publish them in a single article so that you can easily view each of them.
It has been ten years of the franchise and a celebration is planned.
Circana data shows Resident Evil 5 as the best selling Resident Evil game in the US, ahead of Resident Evil 4 remake and Village.
So the most successful RE is the one where a white man is killing Africans.
This can't be real.
With the ninth mainline installment looming, it feels like the right moment to rank every mainline Resident Evil game from worst to best.
At first I was like, No Code Veronica on the list!? But then I seen Mainline. The list checks out, but I would personally put 2 over 4.
I'll take 2 over 4 also. And even without a number, I don't see how Code Veronica, my other favorite in the franchise, isn't mainline when it's the actual sequel to RE2.
The original RE was the best. Its not on the list which makes no sense.
The remake of it was alright but should be higher on this list.
Definitely agree with The Last of Us winning the Game of the Show award.
It seems plenty of games were shown at E3 after all.
Watch Dogs looked yawn worthy. I don't see the appeal.
I think TLOU got a lot of attention for that fact that it felt very different compared to other offerings this generation. Most people who watched the E3 conference that time was shocked by the way ND changed it's directive approach and it's riveting presentation. It was blunt, brutal and surreal.
However, this caused just a lot doubts which ND probably predicted which is why they had a 2ND closed-door showing. It was THIS time that many doubters suddenly saw the potential the game had and most likely secured it's position for being GoTS. Kotaku, destructoid, IGN and others were pretty much split in the inital E3 showing but suddenly became unanimous in it's praise after the closed-door approach.
Since none of closed-door presentations (other than articles) was viewed by the non-attendees, the lingering doubt from the first presentation still lingers on. I'm pretty sure many would change their opinion once they've seen the "closed-door" showing.
