Welcome to the Best of Kotaku, where I round up all of this week's best content.

This week's best image is an awesome Battlefield 3 wallpaper, or should I say Cattlefield 3? The wallpaper posted by Redditor SgtQuack was inspired by the Russian Blue that resembles Battlefield 3's poster soldier.

Moving on to our Best Of content this week, we kick things off as usual with a comment from the community.

The Best Comment From The Community

Our favorite comment of this week comes to you from HellULookinat:

people really need to get over the fact that resident evil doesn't go for scares the way it used to. I mean let's be real, how many installments of one series featuring the same protagonists facing the same menace over and over again should it be before it's all just another day on the job?

if capcom tried to give the series at this point the same feeling of tension as though the characters truly are surprised and frightened by what they are facing it'd be entirely unbelievable.

now it's more like:

Jill: Chris, reports are coming in from France that violent attacks where people have been eaten by......

Chris: Yeah, yeah, I know. And at the end of it we'll find Wesker is behind it all.

Jill: But he's been dead for—
Chris: Bullshit. I'm sure when he was blown to bits in that volcano some parts were regenrated and cocooned in lava bubbles until they matured into individual Weskers, which then each experimented on themselves using variant strains of the new G-Infinity virus.

Albert Wesker(s) is back, and now he can punch through mountains, travel through alternate dimensions, pat his head and rub his stomach at the same time, and and make a mean cheddar jack pasta salad.

Jill: You're right. Suit up.
