Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly Remake Review: A Ghost of the Past | Restart In attempting to modernize some aspects while still sticking closely to the original, Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly Remake erases much of that which helped define the standout survival horror game.

I played Fatal Frame 2 for the first time just two years ago and absolutely loved it. The new remake feels like a lesser version is most regards, and the aggravation mechanic is criminally bad. A shame. www.restart.run/articles/fat...

Feels like a lot of smart changes here, hoping the bots don't get hit much after this, but they def needed some tweaking. Happy to see the ammo counts for spon kits addressed here too.

Analyzing Acquisitions Through the Lens of Resident Evil | Restart Thanks to Resident Evil Requiem, we now know how much individual bioweapons cost in USD. So how many game studios would that be? And why is a BOW a much better option?

Resident Evil Requiem has a pricing list for the black market of bioweapons like Tyrants, Lickers, etc. Because I can only think about one thing I had to wonder aloud: could money on video game studio acquisitions instead be spent on monsters? www.restart.run/articles/ana...

Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection Review | Restart The latest RPG in the Monster Hunter universe is actually a pretty fun checklist game, but you definitely have no need to come to it for the story.

I liked Monster Hunter Stories 3 well enough, even though that took a bit of time to make happen. Under a normal truncated review schedule, I am not sure I would have been able to "find the fun," as it were. Unfortunate that the narrative drags it down for me. www.restart.run/articles/mon...

Professor Tangrowth standing on top of the power lines Those lines now under the ocean and encased in stone More power lines under water

Professor Tangrowth kept trying to jump from the top rope so from now until further notice all power lines have been moved under the ocean
