## Resource

Following our popular podcast last year of the original trilogy and its impact on the survival horror genre, we return to examine the most influential RE title on the wider gaming industry - Resident Evil 4. 20 years since its original release, the mechanics of the gaming loop have impacted so many titles, that we felt it prudent to take a closer look at the horror games that came after with recommendations and a healthy discussion of other games too. Join Rombie, Neptune, Stars TyranT and a delighted George Trevor as we chat all things Silent Hill, Cold Fear, Dead Space and many more as we bring down our curtain on 20 years of Biohazard4. We are also joined by special guest Brandon Salisbury to celebrate the release of his George Romero documentary whilst teasing up and coming projects with RE alumni.
