Vultures: Scavengers of Death Is a Masterclass in Tactical Survival Horror

There are games that wear their inspirations on their sleeve, and then there are games that understand why those classics mattered in the first place. Vultures: Scavengers of Death Steam page feels like the latter. The moment I started creeping through its ruined environments, conserving ammo, checking every hallway like my life depended on it, I immediately felt at home as someone raised on Final Fantasy VII, Resident Evil, and Parasite Eve. What makes Vultures special is how naturally it fuses survival horror tension with tactical RPG mechanics. A lot of games try to mash genres together and end up […]

Resident Evil Requiem Review – 30th Years of Survival Horror and Action Horror Finally Perfectly Balanced

From the fixed camera dread of Resident Evil to the revolutionary shift of Resident Evil 4, the franchise has never been afraid to evolve. Resident Evil 4 didn’t just change the series it changed gaming, introducing a more dynamic, over-the-shoulder perspective and pushing the experience toward action horror while still maintaining tension. That direction carried into Resident Evil 5, leaning even further into action and co-op. Then came Resident Evil 6, a turning point that fully embraced large-scale spectacle and cinematic chaos. And while that aligned with gaming trends at the time, it wasn’t fully accepted by longtime fans. For many of us who grew up with the originals, something felt lost the vulnerability, the pacing, the fear of the unknown. Then came the reset. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard brought back fear, isolation, and tension, while Resident Evil Village experimented with blending both identities. Now, Requiem feels like the answer to that divide.
