Review Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster (Xbox) - Capcom Classic Gets No-Frills Upgrade
We wanted more deluxe
Dead Rising is back. Yep, a solid eight years on from 2016's Dead Rising 4, Capcom returns to its whacky zombie-slaying series with what's now a second re-do of the Xbox 360 original. Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster is certainly a more comprehensive overhaul than the game's Xbox One release, with vastly improved visuals, steadier...
Dancing Machine
Is it just us, or has Capcom been on some sort of record-breaking streak of fantastic form since around about 2016? The Resident Evil 2 Remake upped the game for revamps in general, Street Fighter 6 is the best the series has been since Street Fighter 2 Turbo (fact) and the likes of Monster Hunter and Devil May Cry are enjoying more...
Review Dragon's Dogma 2 (Xbox) - Capcom's Cult Classic Makes A Triumphant Return
Hardcore Pawn
Twas during a routine outing to gather Wakestone shards in the Echoing Depths north of Bakbattahl that we first realised just how "down bad" we are for everything Dragon's Dogma 2 has been chucking in our general direction over the past week or so. This particular routine outing, you see, ended in Cas - our strongest fighter-class...
Review Resident Evil 4: Separate Ways (Xbox) - Ada Wong Returns In A Dynamite Slice Of DLC
All killer, no filler
2023 has been quite the year for Resi fans, with Resident Evil 4 Remake surpassing all expectations in serving up a revamped version of a stone cold classic that may actually go down as the definitive version in the long run. We certainly thought so here at Pure Xbox, dishing out a perfect 10/10 score in our review, where we...
Review Street Fighter 6 - The World Warriors Make A Triumphant Return To Xbox Consoles
Metro City Marvel
Have a quick browse through a few online rankings of the best Street Fighter games and you’ll find that Street Fighter V - yep, the one that never made it to Xbox consoles - usually lingers somewhere behind Street Fighter IV in the minds of many a fan of the franchise. Whilst it was still a top-notch effort when it came to actual...
Review Resident Evil 4 - Capcom's Stellar Remake Improves Upon Perfection
Bingo!
It's been a long old while now since Shinji Mikami's final Resident Evil foray was first unleashed upon the world, and what a parting contribution to the series it was. Here was an entry in an already iconic survival horror franchise that shifted away from slow-burn resource management towards full-on Hollywood levels of bombastic action...
Review Monster Hunter Rise - The Next-Gen Version Is The Definitive Edition
Late to the party
It’s common to associate the Capcom brand with IP like Mega Man, Resident Evil and Street Fighter, but the series that’s arguably paving the way for the Japanese video game giant moving forward is Monster Hunter. It has shot to fame in less than 20 years and is now the second highest-selling Capcom franchise - with the 2018...
Ethan's Hunt
Set just three years after the events of 2017's superlative Resident Evil 7, Resident Evil Village rejoins perennial whiner Ethan Winters and his wife Mia as they struggle to come to terms with the ordeal they suffered at the hands of the hillbilly Bakers in the Mold-infested swamps of Louisiana. Although the family has now been whisked...
Review Resident Evil 3 - A Disappointing Follow-Up To Last Year's Brilliant Resident Evil 2
Raccoon City Rancour
Perhaps it was somewhat foolish to expect that a Resident Evil 3 remake, no matter how radical, could manage to reach the heady heights of last year's sublime Resident Evil 2. With much weaker source material to work from – there ain't no Raccoon City Police Department here – this one was always likely to be an uphill...
Review Resident Evil 2 - A Stellar Remake Of A Stone-Cold Classic
Raccoon City Redux
Ask anyone who played the original release of Resident Evil 2 back in 1998 what they remember most fondly about their time with the game and we reckon a lot of folk will gravitate towards the Raccoon City Police Department. Easily the best setting in a Resident Evil to date – although Resident Evil 7's hillbilly hellhouse runs...
