How Resident Evil 4 SAVED Resident Evil (ft. The Sphere Hunter!) @gamespot

GameSpot Resident Evil and survival horror, as a genre, were on the decline.

Fortunately, RE creator, Shinji Mikami, was sick of making the same thing over and over again, and was ready to create that change himself. Follow Dave Klein, joined by the The Sphere Hunter, as they breaks down this story, the creation of Resident Evil 4, and how it would not only save the slowly faltering Resident Evil Franchise, but go on to change the entire video game industry.

Elden Ring: Shadow Of The Erdtree DLC Review

GameSpot 2024-06-18 | From Software's expansion for Elden Ring offers an entire new game's worth of content, all of which is exceptionally executed.

Shadow of the Erdtree takes players to the Land of Shadow, a place that has been hidden away, where the laws of the venerated Golden Order that governs The Lands Between were written in blood, and that has been forgotten and left to fester. Battling through the Land of Shadow's numerous castles, caves, and crypts delivers exactly what you want from a From Software game and what made Elden Ring an open-world masterpiece when it was released two years ago. It offers the same thrilling sense of player-empowered exploration and rewarding discovery, as well as the satisfaction of triumphing over adversity. These aspects of Elden Ring are all as potent in Shadow of the Erdtree, but it's the game's subversions that are the most striking.

Elden Ring Story Recap & Shadow Of The Erdtree Questions

GameSpot 2024-06-17 | Get ready to enter Mohgwyn Palace, reach into Miquella’s cocoon, and cross the veil into the Land of Shadow in the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. If you’re confused by most of what I just said, then this is the video for you!

Unless you were taking copious notes and talking to every NPC in the main game, or you have VaatiVidya content constantly playing in the background, you might be a little lost as to what in the fingers is actually going on in the Lands Between.

Here’s a story recap to get you caught up on the main plot beats and characters you should know before tackling Shadow of the Erdtree, as well as what questions you should be asking yourself when you get your hands on the DLC. Get ready for a ton of proper nouns, and spoilers for Elden Ring’s story.

Black Myth: Wukong: A Fun Action RPG filled with Bosses

GameSpot 2024-06-16 | Black Myth: Wukong is an upcoming Action RPG, and while Phil found there to be some Souls-ish elements like recovering health similar to having an Estus Flask, or checkpoints akin to bonfires, in general, he found the gameplay to not be in the Souls-vein, with less deliberate combat.

Playing as Sun Wukong, aka "The Destined One", means players will be frequently dodge-rolling away from enemy attacks, with a deep combat system. Black Myth: Wukong is currently set to release August 20, 2024 to PC and PS5.
