I really loved the firstResident Evilmovie. It was a self-contained story set within the universe that didn’t mess with the main story arc. I even likedApocalypse, even though they messed a little with the main story. I forgave it though, largely because Nemesis was pretty badass, and the actress that played Jill Valentine was gorgeous.

A graphics support unit, the Super FX chip was a co-processor that pushed the SNES’ graphic capabilities pretty far. Games likeStar FoxandSuper Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Islandbenefitted from the tech and were able to punch above their generational weight class. Regardless, onlyYoshi’s Islanddoesn’t look entirely antiquated by today’s standards....

Can’t say I blame ’em Telltale Games is picking its episodic adventure seriesThe Walking Deadback up for a third season this year. We knew it was coming, but not necessarily so soon. Better hang onto that save data.
