A small, overlooked link in the 3D-space chain Capcom forged from 1996 to 2006. Essentially a dead-sea scroll or rosetta stone that allows us to work out how the studio progressed from Resident Evil and the original Devil May Cry to its now-revered stable of mid-2000s action games like God Hand, Resident Evil 4, Devil May Cry 3 and Dead Rising; there’s even the genesis of Capcom-offshoots like Bayonetta and Vanquish in the mix here!

Unfortunate that it’s been left to languish in the GameCube’s dusty cupboards for so long - Capcom are unwittingly sitting on a little 4-hour gem here that they could easily wrap up in a PC-compatible bow and market in much the same way as killer7 or Onimusha: Warlords. Lots of talk about how this unfinished experience was doomed from the moment it had to be released on a £40 plastic DVD case in the 2003 days before post-launch updates, but there’s a chance for redemption here on the digital-only storefront. Absolutely worth checking out on Dolphin - a simple 1080p upscale and an aliasing filter over its minimalist aesthetic gives it enough shine to pass as modernity. And you’ll be able to save-state past the one-hit-killshit to focus on what really matters here - boogie-running beats and a mecha called Mister Giraffe.
