In this episode, Alex and Rob take a trip back to the 2010's – when in an era where Capcom was figuring out the future of the franchise, they also revisited and expanded the past to new platforms, new engines, and HD displays! Remasters and HD Ports for everyone!
Between 2011 and 2019, and including during the franchises 20th anniversary in 2016, many of the titles released in the franchise were revisiting ones from the past. From Revelations moving from handhelds to HDTV's, Resident Evil 4 still seeing numerous ports almost 15 years on from its original release, the amazing ports of the Gamecube era Resident Evil Remake and Zero to nearly every platform, Code Veronica in HD and somehow then back to SD… and much much more. We step through the history of this crazy time period and try and make sense of it all.
Of course not all of it could be great, and there was also one major spin-off in this era we have to mention… Umbrella Corps. A mixed project with mixed focus and mixed understanding, we also take some time to look into this oddity of the franchise to figure out what just was the thoughts behind it.
This is weird episode, but we certainly think it's a great one. So join us as we talk through all of this and more on this episode of Complete Global Saturation!
This 12 episode limited podcast series is a follow up to Alex Aniel's book, 'Itchy, Tasty: A Unofficial History of Resident Evil' – which covers the first decade of the series from its origins in the early 1990s through to 2006. The book is available online at the usual retailers, in bookstores, or can be purchased directly from Alex's website – www.cvxfreak.com – which you can also have signed by Alex.
Future episodes will cover other games in the decade or so beyond all in aid of looking into topics Alex will cover for an eventual follow up charting more direct history of the rest of the series, and some special guests will join us from time to time to talk about the series.
