Those Resident Evil remakes are great. Really great. But you know what's better? Original Resident Evil. Well, kinda. Look, I'll admit it, basically every RE remake Capcom has put out has been a banger, improving on the games they're based on in all sorts of clever ways, but there's still part of me that yearns for the janky, badly voiced charm of the original PS1 games. Perhaps 'better' is the wrong word, but important? Iconic? Nostalgic? Original RE is all of these things and more.
So it's with no small excitement that I tell you that the original 1996 Resident Evil just got a mysterious new PC PEGI rating (via Gematsu), suggesting something is going on with the game, and it seems likely to me that something is a release of some kind. You can find it yourself by searching 'Resident Evil' on PEGI's website, where the listing still seems to be live at time of writing. There's violence in it, apparently. News to me.
