Dear readers, please bear with me. It’s been a long day. I’ve spent hours in front of an old CRT monitor at a police station watching video evidence, trying to determine… … Wait. No. That was an iPad, not a mid-90s computer monitor. There were definitely hours spent in front…
Read MoreReview by Jedediah H. Resident Evil, the original PlayStation 1 classic, is responsible for moulding me into the bravest of precociously chiselled boys.
