  • Resident Evil 2 is Released Tomorrow!

    It’s the one that all fans of horror games have been waiting for: Resident Evil 2. After the success of the first game, it was only going to be a matter of time before a second was brought out. And now, it is only one day away. The game will be available to buy for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and if you pre-order it, there are some very good deals available now.

    This game is horror through and through. Its graphics have come a very long way since the release of the first game back in 1998, making it more realistic and eerie than ever before. In the game, you will once again be based in Raccoon City as it is infected by a virus and the residents become zombies. Main protagonists Leon Scott Kennedy and Claire Redfield return, giving the game a sense of familiarity – though it is barely recognisable with the all-new graphics making it more realistic than ever.

  • Is the Xbox One X the Most Powerful Console Ever?

    Is the Xbox One X the Most Powerful Console Ever?

    The Xbox One X is being billed as the most powerful console in the world – are the claims true? It certainly does have some impressive technology behind it. It is the first games console to use 4k – the problem being that most people do not have 4k televisions at this stage. However, there is no arguing with the technology. It is incredibly powerful and will provide a superior gaming experience, compared with anything else that is currently on the market.

    It is not without its flaws though. There may be a slight issue with storage, as games will take up a lot of space on the console. This is only a slight flaw though, and in general, the Xbox One X has been receiving rave reviews. The technology behind it is very powerful and other technologies will have the chance to catch up, like televisions, games and other similar consoles.
