Phil writes, "After coming up with six disappointing sequels in the inaugural edition of this series at the beginning of the year, it's time to take a look at six more.

The Humble Capcom Mega Bundle is out now. It features Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen, Resident Evil HD, Dead Rising 4, Mega Man Legacy Collection 1, and more.
