The Best Dead Rising Cuts, Crazy Chops on Capcom AAAs for TGS, Mad MGS Savings, and More!

Reviews for Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster are popping up online, and the word is it's a redux worth the bucks. Having clocked it already myself, I can say that a bunch of 2006-era jank has been fixed, most notably in the controls and survivor AI pathfinding departments. Speaking of Capcom, PC gamers can cash in on some serious discounts, too!


In retro news, I’m breaking out the SoulStorm Brew and birthday cake for Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee. I have two core memories of playing this 27 years ago on the OG PlayStation. One is of being blown away—and I do mean utterly, like a Mudokon getting lit up by a Slig—with Oddysee’s phenomenal fusing of pre-rendered video and 2D puzzle-platforming. And two: losing a good 20 minutes in the GameSpeak menu, making Abe chatter, whistle, but mostly just rip farts and laugh at himself. Live that dream yourself in the redux, New ‘n’ Tasty.
