Win a copy of Resident Evil: Chronicles HD Collection for the PSN!

By Ryan Fleming July 26, 2012

Behold, we have two codes to giveaway for Resident Evil: Chronicles HD Collection, the remastered collection that contains two games originally released on the Wii, now available as one downloadable offering via the PlayStation Network.

The collection features 2007’s Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, as well as 2009’s Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. Both titles originally appeared exclusively on the Wii, but Capcom has thrown on a shiny new coat of paint and released them into the wild for PS3 owners to experience.

Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles was released between Resident Evil 4 and RE5, and it retells the events of earlier games from the point-of-view of Albert Wesker and an Umbrella Corp scientist, filling in gaps up through RE3: Nemesis.

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles was released after Resident Evil 5, but like its companion it retells earlier events, this time through the eyes of Claire Redfield and Leon Kennedy.

If you are a fan of the series—and not just the games, but the overall mythology created by Capcom for the Resident Evil universe—then both titles are musts to learn more about what is going on.

So, how can you get ahold of these games? Shy of just, ya know, buying them? Enter a comment below telling us what your favorite survival horror game of all time is, and you will automatically be entered to win. The winner will be selected on Tuesday, July 31 at noon. We will send codes to winners that afternoon.

That’s it, comment to win. The contest is open to North American residents only. Good luck to all!

Thanks to everyone that entered! The winners have been notified. Keep checking back for more contests, we have plenty planned in the coming weeks.

The best Fallout 3 mods

Right alongside Skyrim, Fallout 3 is one of the most modded games of all time. Bethesda took this series and transformed it into an open-world adventure that had never really been seen up to that point. As much as there was to do in that base experience, there was a limit to what could be done. However, dedicated fans didn't let that end their fun and began modding the game with new features, quality of life improvements, and new content to extend the life of Fallout 3 to the point where you can still play it today and have an amazing time. Now that modders have had well over a decade to work with the game, there are potentially thousands of mods you can try out, but these are the best ones we've found.
FWE - FO3 Wanderers Edition

Let's kick things off with a bang and talk about the FWE - FO3 Wanderers Edition mod. Calling this a single mod is kind of a misnomer since it actually integrates over 50 other mods into one massive package. The purpose is to rework the balance and depth of the game to be more fair and give players more opportunities to role-play. This mod does make the game intentionally harder than the base version. Combat is faster and more determined by player skilll. Also, which perks and skills you have make a bigger difference. Injuries need to be treated more carefully, over 40 new weapons and pieces of armor have been added, AI has been enhanced, and dozens of other changes were implemented to make the game more immersive. It's the simplest way to give another playthrough some spice.

Amazon’s Fallout success reveals a big problem with the video game business

The cast of Fallout.

April's biggest video game isn't a new release like Tales of Kenzera: Zau or Stellar Blade. Instead, it's a series that hasn't gotten a new entry in years.

Fallout is currently enjoying a wave of mainstream attention thanks to its surprisingly fun Amazon TV adaptation. Returning players and newly-won-over fans alike are returning to classics like Fallout 4 and New Vegas to scratch their post-apocalyptic itches. It's the moment any video game publisher dreams of, but there's just one problem: Bethesda can't capitalize on the moment.

A Redditor ‘didn’t know’ about the Steam Deck, so they built their own

It's hard to imagine that anyone interested in portable gaming hasn't heard of the Steam Deck, but one Redditor says they "didn't know" it existed. And because of that, they decided to build their own.

The 3D-printed contraption comes from Raven0606, who shared images of the completed handheld on the r/SBCGaming subreddit, which is dedicated to handheld emulators. The build took nine months to complete, and Raven0606 dubbed it the Ryzen Deck in honor of the Steam Deck (they found out about Valve's handheld halfway through the build process).
