‘Resident Evil 5’ is Coming to the Nvidia Shield
Lots of Resident Evil news lately. The latest has to do with Resident Evil 5 and its imminent arrival on the Nvidia Shield. The seven year-old platform’s somewhat sparse offering of horror games could use the boost, and this port looks darn good. It even runs at 30 fps, like its console brethren.
Capcom’s underrated co-op action game is joined by the Doom 3 BFG Edition, Killing Floor: Clamity, Dead Trigger 2, Dead on Arrival 2, both seasons of Telltale’s The Walking Dead and the mini-series The Walking Dead: Michonne.
Resident Evil 5 arrives tomorrow at the discounted price of $9.99 (reg. $14.99).
This week has also brought news of Resident Evil 7 and Revelations 3 — and don’t fret, it’s all very good news. If these reports are accurate, this could be an incredibly exciting year for fans of the series.

The outlet reports, “The actress’ boyfriend, Roy Hernandez, tells TMZ … Daveigh died Tuesday from meningitis and an infection in her blood, which caused her to have septic issues and led to her body shutting down.” The website’s report continues, “We’re told Daveigh had been admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles earlier this month because of malnutrition.”
Here in the horror world, a young Daveigh Chase memorably played Samara in Gore Verbinski’s 2002 horror movie The Ring, the American remake of the Japanese horror hit.
Far outside the horror world, Daveigh Chase voiced Lilo in the 2002 animated movie Lilo & Stitch, a character she continued to voice in various animated spinoff projects.
Chase also appeared as Samantha Darko in the 2001 classic Donnie Darko, later returning to play the sister of Donnie Darko in the 2009 spinoff movie titled S. Darko.
Daveigh Chase’s resume also includes roles on the TV shows “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” “Charmed,” “ER,” “Touched by an Angel,” “CSI,” “Cold Case,” and 32 episodes of “Big Love.”

We send our deepest condolences to Daveigh Chase’s family, friends, and fans.
