With the remakes of 2, 3, and 4, Capcom has modernized several of the series' biggest hits, bringing both their gameplay and graphical presentation into the current day.

If this sounds like your kind of game, Vultures – Scavengers of Death has a demo out now to tide you over until its full release; just head over to its Steam page.
