Read more After one final extensive hands-on, Resident Evil: Requiem's formula mash-up has me utterly convinced16:29 Resident Evil 9 (aka Requiem) is all about the swings. After three hours with a clearly more-or-less final build of the game, one rather gets the impression that the entire game has been built around the idea of a pendulum swinging back and forth.
