A Hideo Kojima games are rife for this sort of treatment. YouTube channel Bearly Regal did just that forDeath Stranding, using assets like theFinal Fantasy VIImenu screen sounds alongside of music from the various reveals and loading screen concepts from theResident Evilseries....

Game reviews delivered while eating habaneros

SO SPICE! A new videogame reviews YouTube show popped up last month. What’s so special about that, you ask?

These guys just had a great idea for a game and went nuts with it. InTearawayyou play as a envelope-headed messenger named Iota, out on an a adventure to deliver a very special message....

Haha, the commentary in this Umbrella Corps video

Resident Evil spin-off Steven played a littleUmbrella Corpsat Tokyo Game Show andhe was right— the fast crawl does look ridiculous, and zombies aren’t much of a threat in this competitive third-person shooter. With today’s footage, Capcom tried its hand at eSports-style commentary. It does not go well. I wouldn’t say the game looks awful — more like unnecessary — but this footage makes me want to return to the super-fun Raid Mode inResident Evil: Revelations 2and not look back....
