News
Nintendo Retro Consoles
This falls HEAVILY into the “Rumor” category, but a dataminer who was mining the Switch Online found some interesting files that seem to point to not only an N64 classic console, a la the nintendo and super nintendo systems, but a Gamecube classic console as well. AND there is evidence to suggest that NES and SNES games are going to be headed to the console in the future.
OR this could all just be for the switch online store…
Anthem
New gameplay shows how expeditions will work and the open world dynamics.

There will be a VIP demo for pre-orders from Jan 25-27, and then a DIFFERENT demo for everyone Feb 1-3. The game itself comes out Feb 22.
Verizon
Verizon is dabbling in gaming. Rumored to be in the alpha test stage of a streaming gaming service that reportedly already features 135 games. There are apparently some top tier games attached even, including Red Dead Redemption 2, Fortnite, God of War, Far Cry 5, Anthem, Metro Exodus, FIFA 19, and Monster Hunter: World.

RE:2 Demo
The series that got the world hooked on Survival/Horror is coming back in a big way. But is it worth checking out? The short answer… Yes. If you enjoyed the original, the reboot is a step above. But if you didn’t like the original, or you weren’t around to play it and retro gaming isnt really your thing, then this will be hit and miss with most people. The visuals are great and the difficulty is appropriately tough. The one place I feel like it falters is the gameplay. It feels stiff and can be difficult to move around. Also, when you get bit it feels like there is a game mechanic missing. I realize the Dead Rising games are a different franchise but it is still the same publisher, and in Dead Rising when you get too close to a Zombie you can push them off before they bite you. I found myself trying to do the same here. Of all the controls that got updated I feel like that should have been one. Otherwise pretty solid based on this demo.
General Score: 75/100
Controls: 60/100
Immersiveness: 85/100
Enjoyability: 85/100
