“My personal impressions of the game would be that even though Revelations in HD for the Xbox 360 did well in the video games market, selling about 900,000 digital copies worldwide, (including all the video game consoles the HD digital copy was ported on) and was Capcom’s BIGGEST seller game of all time, but my deepest concerned was the game did score an average rating rather than a great rating… not perfect as many survival horror gamers hoped for that this game would be a success. For example; as I was playing the game, there was some dark and scary situations between missions, where players had very limited amount of ammo and health pick-ups to ‘survive the horror’ lurking behind every corner. But as the campaign was half way or at the near end, it started to lack off the horror abit. One thing I liked was a cruiser-mansion like setting, which was pretty cool.
“Graphics was okay, was worth it being transformed in HD format; good facial textures/expressions.
The soundtracks in the game were boring, did not deliver that ‘creepy,spooky’ feeling!”
So I have come to my conclusion/summary of my review of the game;
The Good -:
- Has a cruiser-like-mansion plot setting, which reminds you of the dark/spooky Spencer Mansion.
- Nice cut-scene scenarios.
- The portable version via Ninetendo 3DS was ported and re-released in HD for today’s 7th-gen game consoles.
- Has some scares between missions, with a mixture of some suvirval/horror/action elements.
- Lame story.
- Was NOT classical survival-horror as Capcom mentioned. (They should bring Shinji Makami back as he was and still is the ‘maker of survival horror!’ Without him… Resident Evil does not ‘feel or experience that same classical survival-horror’, which he brought the franchise and his marvellous project work to fame around the world decades ago).
- Weaponry customization system was not good.
- Controls are dodgy, felt awkward playing on the X360.
- The Raid Mode was rubbish, was a non-functional feature in the game.
- Terrible Soundtracks.
Meanwhile, I have run several tests on how to work an emulator with the best settings on my powerful Acer Aspire PC while I was playing Resident Evil Rebirth (remake of the first original Resident Evil), although users will encounter some game sound or cinematic glitches, (I’m using the Dolphin 3.0 version by the way). Other than that, it has never interrupted my gameplay and is not a problem when you are playing in HQ or 1080p picture quality. Oh and you do need a very fast/powerful desktop PC to be able to play on game console emulators. Your PC system requirements should be the following:
- Powerful CPU Dual Core (2 processors or more is fine!) And the CPU clock speed has to be around 3.00GHz or more. Must support SSE2.
- Works with Windows XP, 7, 8 operating systems.
- Also works with Apple Linux or MacOSX Intel operating systems.
- GPU containing Pixel Shader 2.0 or greater. Not all integrated graphics card work though. The best graphics card I say would be Nvidia or Intel HD Graphics driver.
Okay, first of all, head over to the Official Dolphin Emulator Website and from there you can learn on how to install Gamecube/Wii Emulators for PC by watching the Youtube tutorial video on how to get started.
Next, you gonna have to install 7-Zip, which is a free unpacking program where you can extract emulator and game ROM files onto your desktop PC. But before you do that, make sure you create 2 folders. One for the Emulator and the other for the game ROM files.
Head over to CoolROM.com, where you will find a database list of all the retro game ROM files you can download for your Emulator. Your all set, hope you enjoy your games!
See you on the next update which is ‘Resident Evil: Revelations Impressions’.

Compared to Playstation 4 on the other hand, Sony has confirmed their new console does “not require an online connection” just to play single player games, and also the console “will support backward compatibility”. This could mean Xbox 360 owners will transfer to Playstation 4 because of its marvellous console features and functions.
Check out below on reports for Playstation 4 and why it has won the war already. See you guys on the next update, Good day everybody! 🙂
Since I read reports on the next Xbox console, Xbox gamer fans worldwide including me are angry with Adam Orth, the dumbass behind the future development of Microsoft Xbox consoles in which he has introduced DRM, (Digital Restrictions Management) which is a new policy to ban second-hand used games and backward compatibility to be used. Even worse… he has said that an “always-online connection” is REQUIRED in order to play games, interact, communicate for the new console to function properly. This is very bad news for Xbox customers too, not only that but the Xbox 360 won’t be able to communicate with the new console; this includes Xbox 360 games & data transferable content.
Angry Xbox 360 gamers have protested against DRM policy for the new console, and also for the always- online connection mode only as not everyone around the world can’t afford for a decent/fast broadband connection during these hard, economic times, plus its IMPOSSIBLE for every device to be always on and connected to the internet in order to function properly. It is not required for every device to be running online at present, people have a choice to do what they desire, whether it is to run that device online or offline mode. But since that does not make Adam Orth understand our feedback, he responded back with stupid answers (talks absolutely rubbish on the matter), insulting back with harsh words, therefore he does not care about the arising problems people identify… read the full report Xbox 360 fans angry after Adam Orth’s Twitter insult! Not a very sensible person to work at Microsoft Games. There has been previous reports back in 2007, where he says something inappropriate. Now even a sensible director would not even swear about a game and then posted by his friend…Adam Orth caught “swearing at Halo game!”
I and along with other protesters have hit back and started creating petitions, if everyone can kindly share your thoughts and sign the petition, we can change the policy, or even better, make Microsoft to FIRE Adam Orth because we will not tolerate his plans and stupidity. Please go to the site below and thanks for all of your support:
Online Petition for Microsoft to sack Adam Orth!
Thank you for your attention and see you on the next update! 🙂
Resident Evil Revelations was the most played game EVER in the series than RESIDENT EVIL 6 and Operation Raccoon City combined.
After disappointing reviews for RESIDENT EVIL 6, Capcom’s profit sales dropped tremendously, creating a concern for the company giant’s future. At the very last minute, they have read feedbacks from gamers who are desperately URGING Capcom to bring back the survival horror roots for future Resident Evil games. However, Capcom will only decide to continue the series where RESIDENT EVIL 6 left of, or by just rebooting the franchise and starting from the beginning is a ‘slight possibility’. The future games will be developed obviously for the Xbox 720 and PS4 including many other 8th gen game consoles, if only the re-released Resident Evil Revelations HD Remake is a success. Only time will tell.
Are you excited to get your hands on Revelations? If you had a plot or story to bring the series to a new era, what would it be? Feel free to comment below this post.

Hey everyone, sorry I was not posting new articles for several weeks… it has been a busy week for me during studies. Hope I did not bore you while I was away. Please accept my apology.. Got some really good news I would like to share to the world below. So read on, enjoy & comment on my post:
According to a gaming site from http://adf.ly/Fi1CZ, Resident Evil: Revelations, the most highly ranked (and indeed the best survival horror game of all time), is a Nintendo 3DS game previously ‘rated for both Xbox 360 & PS3 to be ported in HD remakes via Xbox LIVE and PSN’. Surprisingly the rumour is indeed TRUE! The game was voted to be ported on the currently 7th-gen consoles by the Game Rating Boards of South Korea. The game reported that it has competed very well at the box office with the most positive reviews from the media all over the world, and just maybe surpassing RESIDENT EVIL 6 when it is port-released. This is because of it’s highly trusted horror-themed scenarios that will be enough to scare gamers… unlike the action-oriented theme from RE6.
The game is set in the year 2005, which takes place between the events from Resident Evil 4 & 5. Onboard a luxurious cruise ship called the ‘Queen Zenobia’ located in eastern Europe, Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine, including other BSAA agents are investigating a horrific T-Abyss virus outbreak from a leaked sample, that has infected everyone on the ship and the cause of the outbreak was done deliberately by a bio-terrorist group know as the ‘II Veltro’. The BSSA try to prevent the attacks from going global.
Resident Evil: Revelations was released in early 2012 and was only available for the 3DS, however the announcement including the date release will probably be announced by CAPCOM in mid or late 2013 (providing them to complete RESIDENT EVIL 7 by sometime in 2015).
Revelations will be the first Resident Evil survival horror theme set to be ported on the currently next-gen video game consoles, so I am glad that I am looking forward to it and cannot wait to play the game. Will let everyone know of any news about this topic. Stay tuned!!!
