It's safe to say that after a rough couple of years, the Resident Evil franchise is rightfully back on top of the horror pile.

Now for long-time fans, there's no more an iconic entry then the second main instalment; it set the precedent for blending Romero-style horror with pulse-pounding blockbuster thrills - as events moved from a small creepy house to a city-wide zombie outbreak.

Now after several years of demand (for at least a slick remaster), we've got a full-blown overhaul.

It looks like a juicy blend of the original game's slow-burn creep factor with RE 4's combat and RE 7's graphics. So, basically, a great hodgepodge of franchise elements and quite simply said - it looks bloody brilliant.
