6 Resident Evil Games Capcom Should Remake After Resident Evil 4

Resident Evil 5 received a considerable amount of disliking for its betrayal of the horror and embracing of action, which facilitated the full transition to Michael Bay action in the sixth entry. But have you ever wondered what Capcom could do with the title if they went back and did it again?

That's part of the beauty of the way Capcom does their Resident Evil remakes, it leaves previous missteps rectifiable and can help iron out what let the entry down, to begin with. For the most part, Resident Evil 5 is a good game, there are some glaring issues (*ahem* Sheva) but on the whole, you won't truly find anyone out there that found RE5 an offensive experience.

A remake would need to do what Resident Evil 2 remake did best, strip the title down and work off the bare bones, staying true to the horror that launched the franchise, to begin with.

Dial down the action, ramp up the horror, and staying true to form convert the first boss battle with Wesker to a hide and survive such as when you have Nemesis stalking you in 3's remake, and his final boss battle similar to the first clash with William Birkin in 2. Resident Evil 5 could make for an exciting remade experience.
