Sorry if this topic already exists, I looked my best to see if it did but I found nothing. I've been a fan of this awesome survival horror franchise sense I played the original back in 1996, enyone else?
Big fan right here. :)
Even with my constant bitching about all the games. :laugh:
Yup been a fan since I played the first game back in 1996, played nearly every major title apart from RE6.
Favourite old style classic RE game for me are: REmake, RE2, RE3 and to some extent RE: CV.
RE4 is my favourite, shame Capcom haven't replicated what made RE4 so great. :-\
My favorite games in the series are: Resident Evil, Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3:Nemesis, Resident Evil CODE:Veronica, Resident Evil 0, and Resident Evil Remake. To me Resident Evil 4 was ok, but not as good as the old ones.
My top two used to be the remake on gamecube and 4, Revelations has replaced 4 as my other favorite (better than anything else that come after 4) and the HD version seems to be the definitive one with normal third person controls, so more power to it. 8)
I found 4 intertianing but not as good as the others. I really hate 5 and 6, they just seem so unscary and don't feel like RE at all. I have not played Revelations yet, i heard from fans its good, I will have to see for myself when I buy it on disc.
I started at 4 knowing the story of the previous ones, which I thought was great. And evenhough 5 wasn't scary, I still felt like it had a lot in common with 4. Then 6 came out and all that was gone. No large stages to explore. It became linear with hardly any puzzle solving. And quick time events everywhere.
Big fan of the first 3. Haven't played 4(yet :P), played some of 6 but I didn't like it very much. I may buy it again so I can revisit it(ergo, finish the game at least).
You guys or gals sound like my kind of people, fans of the old Resident Evil games. Like me you liked the survival horror aspect: scary invironmets, limited ammo, scary enemies, the mind bending puzzles, gosh I love the old Resident Evil!
Long time fan since the original. Game scared the f**k out of me at 11 years old.
My favorite games in order. Some are VERY hard to judge which is better than the other because so many of them were great.
Resident Evil REmake (Sorry, the GC version beats the PS1 version. Better EVERYTHING all around while capturing the feel of the original. A masterpiece.)
Resident Evil 2 (Great sequel, hope Capcom remakes it as they said they would consider it. Arguably the best game in the series.)
Resident Evil 3 (Very good, almost great game. Took place a day before and after RE2. Nemesis was a GREAT boss/villian. Good story with Jill and the UBCS force. Loved Carlos and hope we see him again in the series.)
Resident Evil (PS1, no need to explain. If the REmake was never made then this game is at the top of my list.)
Resident Evil 4 (Great game, can see the argument for it being better than RE3, but this was the first RE game to move AWAY from survival horror, so I rate RE3 better because of that.)
Resident Evil 0 (Very good game on GC. Loved seeing how Rebecca survived and watching her get battle tested.)
Resident Evil 5 (Very good, not great, game in the series. Loved seeing Wesker and Jill back in the mix of things.)
Resident Evil 6 (Worst game of the main series, total letdown. I would give all the games at least an 8 or higher. This game was a 7 at best.)
I never beat Code Veronica. It's on my list to do now that I can buy it on Xbox Live.
Big fan of the series. Huge Wesker fan. Best villain ever in video game form. Played them all except mercenaries on 3DS. My favourite is in order RE 3 Nemesis, RE CVX, RE 2, RE 4, RE, RE 0, RE 6, RE 5.

While I do agree with you but if they don't experiment with new ideas they would still be stuck with the fixed camera angle.
I love the series too, but its no longer survival horror, its now survival action.
To those who remember most of Operation Raccoon City's storyline; the battle with Nemesis, to weaken him so we can fix him. What's the best tactic to use in that fight? 'Cause I keep gettin' stopped every which way.

Shoot those other human enemies. Make them bleed to draw away the zombies. If you have Bella I think it is. Use the gas that makes zombies attack whatever you throw it at. Use it on Nemesis. Keep shooting Nemesis, hide behind cover, save your grenades when you really need them and makes sure you have lots of ammo. Once Nemesis is down run up to him and inject the parasite into him. Mission complete.

Hmm? Sorry, still trying to keep from getting shot and infected by attacking infected. :-\

Great! I love when the devs realize their mistakes. I would love to see the franchise to go back to its roots. I wouldn't expect to see a game which can compete with REmake but still its a start :)
There was Revelations which already tried going back to the survival horror roots, and was mostly successful in that regard until it nearly became a shooter during the last 3 chapters until the final stage. :P
Also, they said the same things before RE6 came out. :P
Not believing till I see it. :P
Anyways if they want to keep the action just leave it for Mercenaries mode, it was the best part of RE6 and was one of the best things in RE5. 8)

There was an HD re-release recently, it should be pretty cheap now, and if you hated RE6 and/or 5 you'll probably like this more. There's less action (think about RE4 level of action but just a bit less than that) than both of those.
In my opinion it' what 5 and
especially 6 should've been like.
I liked RE5 actually ;D I am not accepting it as RE game but I liked it. The co-op have a big role in this though.
I liked RE6 but I hadn't played any of the series since the first one. Since then I've tried to catch up and play the other. I really like the Leon and Chris campaign. I didn't dig the atmosphere of 5. I was an idiot and didn't look at review or anything and I bought that dumb operation raccoon city. I was sorely disappointed there.
I know this is wishful thinking but I would like to see RE2 and RE3 remade together.

I always remember going to that small island, and if you stand in the water too long; there's that giant crocodile that comes after you.
The only good Story in RE6 was Ada Wong.
REmake will always be the best RE game ever. Then RE-0 yep,I said it.
After that they just became too action packed and the horror element faded for a more 'frantic' scenario.
Revelations was a step in the right direction but alas,they couldnt help themselves.
Jill is the best character.

RE 6 makes me lol, Wesker has a son? Is Capcom run by crazed fan-girls now? Buff Chris is terrifying, I still remember him as a scrawnier guy in the older games.
What would yall make of this, it was apparently leaked in July, and it would make sense for them to announce it at PAX

They could of come up with a better title. So when is this one gonna be set after Revelations and before 5? And on the 3DS before it gets a HD port to other systems.

If it was Leon and Ada would have gotten married already and Chris would take care of Weskers son as his own.

I doubt it's real, would be happy if it was, but dat

Besides Resident Evil games usually are announced a while before release, the original Revelations was announced in '10, game didn't come out until last year. Even RE 6 had 10 month advance with it's announcement.

Did anyone else find it odd that Jake didn't try to kill Chris? I mean he did lock them in a room with a giant c-virus baby monster.

Eh, kinda, but I ignored it. Must be some sort of "Jake Logic". Dun know.
Thinking about getting RE6, would you guys say its worth it?
I didn't like Jake, he was just ugh...he was every try hard character ever rolled into one boring typical "I'm the big badass motherf**ker" character. He was like a badly done version of Cole from inFamous. :P

At the low price it's at now? Probably. Definitely wasn't worth the 60 when it came out. :-\
All the DLC, and free downloads are pretty nice though.

I didn't like Jake, he was just ugh...he was every try hard character ever rolled into one boring typical "I'm the big badass motherf**ker" character. He was like a badly done version of Cole from inFamous. :P

It's better than ORC. Quicktime events are sometimes annoying. Depends on how much you're paying.

About Re:6, my girlfriend was around when I was playing Jake`s campaign, and she started doing impersonation of Sherry`s Jaaaaake!!! shout after I died few times. :D
When they do make a new Resident Evil I would like to see the return and evolution of Plant 42 or other plants. As well as the complete evolution of a zombie into a licker.
I'm sick of zombies. I would actually love if Capcom tried to build on the Ganados from RE 4 but the right way.
No more battles in the day, no more enemies with guns. They can have knives, pitchforks, kitchen utensils, shovels, chainsaws, and the like, those are enough. Make them creepy like they were in RE 4. The Ganados in RE 4 were smart. They set up traps, they flanked you, they would surround you so combat became less about killing everything and more about crowd control, even with upgraded weapons the combat was about having breathing space. The early chapters in the village are some of the most tense and terrifying levels ever put in any game, and then it becomes night time which is even worse... :-X
Then Capcom f**ked it up with the Majini's in 5 and the J'avos in 6 where they became dumb asses that ran towards your character only to meet a shotgun to the face.
Guess I'll just wait for The Evil Within to make it right. :P
Knowing Capcom though if they go back to horror they'll go back to zombies, because zombies are so scary now a days. ::)

Ah Revelations, everyone sounds better in Japanese. :laugh:
Yesterday I started RE: Rev. I just killed that asshole with the chainsaw in the cafeteria. Its clearly visible that the game is port from the 3DS, they didn't bothered much to replace the textures with better ones. But this is not a big deal. The game jumps from good to bad and from bad to good all the time. Why there's someone running along with me in 99% of the time if there's no coop campaign? I don't want a "coop" AI buddy in my RE game if I am playing singleplayer. Its great immersion breaker. On top of that the guy who's partner with Jill is one of the worst characters in the video games history. Also the new chick who's with Chris is like a fashion model and not a BSAA operative. Look at this

who's dressing like that if he's going on top secret mission with high possibility of enemy engagement? Its more like a dress for the fashion channel. Its not a gameplay breaker but still - poor art decision. And speaking of poor art - the enemies so far are just terrible. Every creature looks exactly the same as the previous one. With the zombies is different because at least they have different outfits. And those creatures are far from scary. They are more funny or even retarded than scary. But after my encounter with the regenerators back in RE4 I doubt I will get scared from RE game just like that anymore.
I really like the returning of the "open world". Its great to have it and that the levels are not just straight corridors. I like that when you open your inventory and the game stops. I like the way I can upgrade my weapons. The controls and the movement are nice and fluid. I didn't liked the Genesis part. Its like they wanted something completely different but they scrapped that idea and just left it there just for the sake of it. Its either that or just another false gameplay longevity element used by the devs these days. At first its nice but it gets boring quickly.
Overall the game is WAY BETTER than RE6 and ORC. I am willing to believe its better than RE5 too. Its a real cool game even with its flaws but its a handheld game after all and for a handheld game its a masterpiece.
Oh Jessica, have you seen her wetsuit?

About the A.I. Capcom was originally going to make it a co-op based game and you would have to split up around the ship looking for the keys and solving puzzles for other players. Very similar to how RE 1 was originally planned to have co-op: http://www.relyonhorror.com/latest-news/resident-evil-was-always-supposed-to-include-multiplayer/ (http://www.relyonhorror.com/latest-news/resident-evil-was-always-supposed-to-include-multiplayer/)
the idea was scrapped but they kept the A.I. for some silly reason.
These days in RE they can wear any outfit and just strap some Tactical gear to it to make it seem legit.
its all fanservice these days.

I just finished Rev. The best RE game since RE4 lol.. The last boss was kinda decent, still easy but he was not a total joke like the boss in DS3. I hope Rev 2 takes place in that mansion they showed after the credits. And I don't want any new gameplay mechanics. Its fine how it is, just add more enemy variety and the game is set. I wouldn't mind if there is a coop but I prefer it to be drop in/drop out so in the singleplayer to be alone on the screen for full survivor horror effect.

It was already done in DLC to RE:5. Lost it Nightmares it was called I believe.
TBH I`d prefere Rev2 to focus on Barry Burton or Claire. And I`d love Nemesis T-type to come back.
We want Barry, being back Barry!
And Nemesis ;)
Of course, even if he was a bitch to subdue in Operation Raccoon City. It didn't help that Spec Ops was running by me while trying to shoot him. Before going "OH, THERE'S AMA, LET'S SHOOT HER TOO!" :laugh:
Haven`t played Operation game. I don`t really have much time for games and heard it was bad. Still nothing gave me more chills then Nemesis when I first played RE games as kid. I`d love to fight another one in new game. Ustanak in RE6 wasn`t so creepy.
I always remembered my friends kicking the door open in my room while playing the first 3, of course that and a jump-scare in-game didn't help. RE6 wasn't scary - it just broke my heart with Piers.
Yeah, Pierce motive was really good. Re5 and 6 wasn`t scary. I kinda hope next game will take more from RE4 (which was simply great) and Revelations.
Maybe they could let us play as Barry in Revelations 2. I always remember screaming at my friend to watch my back in RE4, that's how awesome it was. XD

I went and re-bougt the Wii version a few years back even with the superior aiming that game is f**king terrifying.
I don't even care if I get called a wimp or anything, the first few chapters in the village are the most tense I've ever felt playing a horror game.
It's a shame RE 5 got so shafted in the final product. That first trailer from ages ago with Chris alone was fantastic. :'(
It's even more painful if you look at the artbook and see what Capcom had planned for RE 5...
ya dun f**ked up something great capcom, ya dun f**ked up.
Ah, RE5, I always remembered the fact that you had to STOP WALKING to aim. Oh, there's a horde coming MY WAY, let's just stand here to shoot them.. :laugh:

RE4 was the first time in a video game where I sat in one spot because I did not wan't to proceed. It was after I left the house where you catch a small glimpse of Ada, and I looked through my sniper scope and could see the chainsaw guy's head over a fence. I really died not like the chainsaw guys in those games...
My friend: STAND BACK, HE'S GOT A CHAINSAW!
Me: WUT. *killed*

Funny story about that particular chainsaw guy.
I once went and killed the one Ganado that was in the bathroom using my handgun, little did I know that it was loud enough to activate him. I don't know if running in the house or my gunshot activated him but here's the thing, there was no chainsaw buzzing noise. As soon as I open the door Leon loses his head.
And that's why I always walk and never fire my gun unless chainsaw man is dead while in that house.
Also that scream he does is terrifying. The female ones are even worse cause they're louder.

I once ran out of ammo when there was a chainsaw guy, I actually got chased around until I found some ammo. :D
Do you remember this U 3 guy? This was one horrible fight. I felt so hopeless when runnig through cage with feeling it`s right behind (or above, or in front of ;) ) me. And when cage fall down this f**ker jumped at me again, I was totally freaked.
Well, my RE4 play-through consisted of me running like hell and screaming in terror...
BUT I MISSED IT SO MUCH.
The only scary part in RE4 are the regenerators.
I have a question for any Resident Evil fans here. This is something that has confused me for a while now ^^' Why do people like Resident Evil 4, but hate Resident Evil 6?
Maybe I just don't get it, but I've finished both of them, and I don't see much of a difference in either, whether it be gameplay, story, or tone. Neither of them was scary and both of them were silly action oriented games, where as I felt Resident Evil 6 had much more fluid controls. At leasts, that's how I experienced them...

1. Some of the quicktime events were not so good.
2. Albert Wesker having a son and was kept secret from Umbrella.
3.
Spoiler
Ada and her C-Virus copy
4. Jake is a bit of a loser and his dialogue sucks. Unlike his badass father.
5. The C-Virus. I mean really....
6. That guy with seven or more transformations.
7. No sense of horror. Just more focused on action. At least RE 4 had a bit.
8. Parts of the story felt like why am I doing this?
9. Jake Muller.
10. Fighting Jvavo or whatever they are that are armed with guns.
Anymore?
So, aside from the Vampire rebels, it's mostly gripes on the story?

Pretty much. I liked the controls and a bit of the story. But yeah the main gripe is with the story and those annoying quicktime events.
jake was just about as a lame character as his father.
I enjoy them both for what they are.
I play resident evil to kill monsters, and see cool set pieces and environments,
Okay, thank you for taking the time to answer me and not getting offended (I've asked this question before and it's almost always met with hostility xD)
I guess I just can't sympathize with that position, as I didn't feel like RE4 had anything resembling a good story. It was fun, but it was this strange frankenstein of behind of the scenes changes xD

I'm gonna let that slide. Wesker was loosing his touch in RE5 but in all of the other games he was calm, badass, manipulative, calculated and powerful. He just left his hatred of Chris destroy him.

No problem. Fun fact one of the strange ideas for RE4 was Leon had White hair and shooting demons with stylish combos. It latter became its own series Devil May Cry ;D

The reason Resident Evil 4 is loved by many is because it reinvented the series right. It was an action game but Shinji Mikami knew that it needed horror elements so for the first few village chapters and the chapters on the island they were made very dark, gloomy, lacking color, and most importantly they were very dirty and grimy.
The controls (not perfect, Revelations HD perfected the RE controls), were redone and aside from being denied the simple ability of being able to walk and shoot (something Dino Crisis did ages before), the controls back then were smooth and responsive, and if you play the Wii version of RE 4 even moreso thanks to the cursor while using the Wii-mote, even with Gamecube controller they feel smoothed out.
RE 6 while being an action game too, ditched the horror elements RE 4 had and just went for full on action with disturbing/gross creature designs something that isn't scary but disgusting instead. Enemies use guns whereas in RE 4 the only enemies with guns were the the big minigun motherf**kers, and the special enemies on turrets.
Lastly RE 4 knew how silly it's story was, so it played with it. Remember the message after the credits where it says: "duplication of this game will result in persecution by a S.T.A.R.S. member." The game was silly and Mikami knew this so he found ways to make it self aware like most of the earlier games. Then RE 5 and 6, decided to be serious with silly stories and the rest, yeah...
Anyways what
Terx2 said are other legit reasons too.

Am I right in assuming this means you consider RE4 to be scary?
I understand that RE4 had horror 'elements', but I would disagree with it being scary.
RE4 is mainly praised as one of the best games ever made because it was something that nobody did before it. It was unique for what it is in every aspect. And especially as a RE game, it was like nothing else before it. And that's why its praised.
Looking at it right now I am not liking it that much. Back then I loved it but as of now its nothing special, its just another shooter. Its still RE, but its far away from what RE should be. I will never forgive Crapcom for their complete overhaul on RE4. I think it could be something very special game if it stayed as in the early version videos - with the fixed camera and with the ghosts. But anyway, what is done is already done so.. there's no point to discuss it.
Btw the controls in RE6 are horrible because are overcomplicated even for a controller. They added so many useless shit that the controls feel heavy and not innovative. They have to be easy to execute and the player needs just the basic "list" of moves. In RE6 most of the stuff was useless in gameplay aspect. I am sure if RE6 had the Rev controls it could score with 1 point higher in my final score because Rev showed what a proper control mechanic and scheme means.

RE 6 while being an action game too, ditched the horror elements RE 4 had and just went for full on action with disturbing/gross creature designs, something that isn't scary but disgusting instead.
Am I right in assuming this means you consider RE4 to be scary?
I understand that RE4 had horror 'elements', but I would disagree with it being scary.
I was 10 when RE 4 came out man. :P
I don't find it scary anymore, but even now when I play it, it's one of the most tense games I've ever played and that's enough for me. It relies on tension, not shitty jump scares like most of the games excluding 3 and the remake on Gamecube.

Ew, no, that was even less RE than the final version.
Maybe it would go better with the name
Resident Evil, but it doesn't fit the series in Japanland where it's made and it's called
Biohazard.
I`ve played RE: 3,Code Veronica, 4, 5, 6, Revalations. 1 and 2 in extent but still I`m fully aware of story and monsters in it.
If I had to choose which one was scariest, I`d say RE:3. But I was very young when played it. I love Re:4 for it`s atmosphere. Yu could feel decay of the village and surrounding area. New monsters were also great.
In new game I`d love to see combination of Tyrant with plaga.I think it would be logical step to infest one with it.
Rathalos I don't like the ghosts as enemies either, I just pointed it out to determine the exact vid. I am sure they had otehr enemies in mind, such as zombies and other bio shit :laugh:

The only scary part in RE4 are the regenerators.
That, and the fact I was playing it with the lights off. The only thing keeping me awake was a Coca Cola. :laugh:
But yeah, RE6 caused some major "obscenity screaming" because of the controls. That and the first aid deal at times.

True, but Nemesis always, even as a kid, came off as cool to me as opposed to scary, same reason I wasn't terrified of the Predator as a kid, but Salvador just taps into all my fears of being chased by a crazy person. Even when I know he's easy, I. Don't. Want. To. Hear. That.

Scary? Not really. They were a bitch to kill in ORC, especially when someone got a bleeding frenzy on and a whole horde consisted of Crimson Heads.
Salvador scared the shit out of me every time I saw him in RE4. I was scared of how much ammo I have to waste for his sorry ass :'(
I've managed to get every achievement/trophies in all RE Games, (aside from Operation Racoon City because that really doesn't deserve to be a RE game.)
(https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimages1.wikia.nocookie.net%2F__cb20130206010026%2Fresidentevil%2Fimages%2F2%2F2a%2FHunter.jpg&hash=7ea41eec61dbef601f2fc686b0aff392b3ee7111)
These guys made ORC frustrating at times.
I think 'Super OP pimp-ass beast Leon' was the worst thing I've ever fought in a video game.
That mother f**ker used up all of my grenade launcher rounds, I saved two and hit him from behind and FINALLY killed him. :-X
I can't even bloody remember what I did. I know on my professional run through I sided with him, just to save me the stress of putting a fist sized hole through my TV. I think when I killed him I mainly used a sniper rifle and took pot shots at him from a distance till the f**ker dropped.
I was lucky the A.I. that teamed up with me knew how to keep its head down. I've run through it on Veteran, now I just have to beat it on Professional. :-\
lol Operation Raccoon City.
Best of luck, you can actually run through most of the levels practically unscathed if you use Vector's fully upgraded cloaking system. Pair that with the L.Hawk or Samurai Edge and a sniper, you should be good to go.
I love the L.Hawk, even if the aiming is shitty. As for primary, I've got the Juggernaut.

Do you guys think they'll reboot the series after 7 and Revelations 2? :-\ Because the more I look at it the series has devolved from the horror and more focused to action (Revelations was a step in the right direction) Who knows maybe it will end up like the DMC fans and complain about Chris's hair change? ;D :P :laugh:

They'll definitely keep pumping out RE games, it's a classic franchise, (personally I loved the style of RE4,RE5 RE6 and Rev) the action kinda keeps it more 'modern' and interesting.

You got me there, I didn't like the change of hair Capcom gave him in RE 6. :P
I think for horror Capcom should just wait for The Evil Within to release, cause we all know that's going to be better than anything after RE 4. :P
And they could really use the inspiration on that front. Although...The Last Of Us...is also a nice place to look for inspiration if they want to keep it action based...if anything that game for now is the true spiritual successor to RE 4. :P
I swear, the live-action scenes in 1996 version made me laugh uncontrollably. "That mission was...weird."
I was just like, "NOPE, NOPE, I'M DONE"

Poor Chris, at the end of his campaign someone should have given him a "you tried" star. That person would have been me.. X3

RE6 on Professional has its brutal moments (minus my 12 deaths I managed to rack up throughout the campaign), Piers' death yell is pretty 'amusing'.

Chris is the best male character currently still in the RE series imo. He's been my favorite character since the RE1 remake.
I would have liked seeing Piers stick around for another game or two, but at least his end wasn't bad.
I know. :3 Piers' end was heartbreaking, the whole time I was shouting "OHMYGODNO" during the end. Of course, if he had stuck around, Capcom may have decided to turn him into a villain or something.

Well its him and Leon but Chris did appear first and has been though worse than Leon.
If the series needs new blood without having to resort to shitty new characters just have Sherry be the new main character for a while. :P
Because let's be honest; out of all the new characters introduced in 6, Piers was the only tolerable one and they killed him off. :P

My ovaries agree, as well as the fact I was screaming "I'M SO SOOORRYYYY" at Piers during the last cut-scenes.
I thought the characters introduced in operation raccoon city where good, specifically Beltway.
The spec ops characters where ok IMO as well.
Technically speaking they could use those characters as protagonists for the next game, if they follow the good ending.
What the hell happened to HUNK? Why doesn't he have his own game yet?
HUNK does all the wetwork, he doesn't need all the glory. 8)
Operation Raccoon City was awesome, but not my favorite. I'm still attached to RE Remake, and 4. :'3
Hehe, playing Jake's campaign on Professional just for the excuse to play as Sherry because of the stun rod. My Edonia level included me playing Whack-A-Mole with the Piers and Chris A.I.'s as they tried to climb up the ladder for the Ogerman battle. :laugh:

I think he is wrong. REmake was a GC exclusive and its pretty normal the action oriented games to sell more than the pure horror games. The most accessible genres always sell better than the genres oriented for particular group of players and not for everybody. REmake may had a poor sales because of those factors but it still is the best RE game ever made. I truly hope this "The Evil Within, Mikami's latest project, promises to return to the origins of survival horror. " will be case. Mikami should stop care for the CoD kids because they ruined every horror franchise in the recent years turning it into action games.

There's the fact that most of the target audience moved on to the PS2 expecting the next generation of RE games to move there. :P
Bah, not a problem with me final version of RE 4 was better than that random crap with killer dolls and ghosts(seriously? :laugh:).
But gameplay wise it wasn't better. RE4 in its final state leaned more towards action. The levels were cut on parts where you are attacked by enemies and you were not able to proceed unless you kill them all. I don't think this was necessary in RE game.
EDIT: I am not saying that RE4 is bad game.

You never had to kill all the enemies. You could proceed without doing that. It was only absolutely necessary in the water room cause there were enemies coming out everywhere.
I would know, on my first run I left most of the areas without killing a lot of the enemies. :P

If they gave REmake a HD-over and released it on all the current consoles it'd sell like hot cakes. Hot, delicious cakes.
I wouldn't even say the original RE games were "pure survival horror" I'd always end up with a f**k ton of ammo and sprays and herbs at the end of a run on hard mode.

This.
RE 1, 2, 3 (especially 3), and Code Veronica are a joke when it comes to there being a "lack" of ammo.
Only one where it's possible to actually run out is the Gamecube remake and RE 0 and that's
only because you can't pull off headshots with out a shotgun (except by a stroke of luck) and the zombies are bullet sponges.

Played Resident Evil 6 on my friend's PS3 version with Co-Op with another friend. We were hunting the giant snake during that one level where you had to lure the snake into the water and have a friend pull the level. My friend had the sound effects turned down, so all I could hear was the music, and the snake came out of nowhere from behind and bumped into me, and scaring the shit out of me.

That snake was no joke though.
Now that I think about it, Chris's campaign in general was no joke.
Chris's campaign can basically be summed up as: Watch everything he's ever cared for just crumble or be destroyed in front of his eyes.
Hell you can barely call his mission a success.
Despite all the action set pices, being a full on third person shooter, and lack of zombies I felt it harkened back to classic RE way more than Leon's thanks to those scenes.
Plus dat final boss. 8)
Chris' mission deserves a "you tried" star.
I loved Leon's campaign, even though some of the zombies where bullshit at times. Like the BSAA zombies.

After RE4, it started to slide. I did like 5, but 6 and Operation Raccoon City, ugh. Never got around to playing Revelations. Heard that was good.
I would kill for a remake of the first 3. Nemesis was very under-rated.

Leon's campaign was probably the best one. Wish it stayed more like the first couple stanza's though. Felt like Raccoon City in the beginning.

Yeah but RE 6 was announced at the beginning of 2012 and came out by the end. An E3 reveal would indicate a game just starting development or coming in a year or two. Hopefully they take their time, it's easy to tell they cut corners with 6.
Raccoon City is the closest I have come to experiencing a somewhat modern incarnation of RE 2. Well, that and the Wii Chronicles series. I wish Capcom would listen to their fans. I signed the petition to get a remake of 2 many years ago, and instead I've been given about a million different versions of street fighter. :(

You can blame the players at EVO for that. They keep asking for a new version every year, it's the reason the next update is even happening. :P
It's the reason I haven't bought any version of SF IV until Capcom is done milking that cow. :P
Its funny, I have played every RE game, love the franchise but hate how its turned action. RE6 was just,the fuk mang. I enjoyed it,the Ada mission was great and I think Chris's campaign was great. Leons was good fun but way to over the top it had me loling.
REmake is still hands down the best RE game,I finished that bastard like 8 times. every other RE i finished maybe once or twice. Nothing comes close to the REmake perfection.
If RE7 is back to its roots,like they say. I'm cautiously optimistic. bloody capcom. get your act in gear.

No. Remove this third person crap and re-do the game in REmake engine. Now you are done.
And don't come up with that fixed camera bullshit. You can play Metal Gear with fixed camera but not RE... Nice try.
Capcom needs to either make a good action game or a good horror game. No more trying to make a middle ground damn it. RE 6 managed to fail both in the horror and action department, at least RE 5 was a great action game that suffered from awful controls.

And? :P
That doesn't mean they provide much challenge. The only reasons the original games were hard (lol) was because of shit controls and camera angles that were forced on the players. Keep everything of the originals the same and give them RE 4-onwards camera angles/controls and nothing would change, they would be just as easy with the added benefit of not playing like shit. :o
I know it's something hard for you to understand since you think shit archaic controls makes for a scary and better game. :)

It seems you don't get it do you? The original games were hard because you were not put in a tunnel so you can only move forward, you were like rat in a maze. You don't have 99999999 ammo all the time, even so you better try to pass some enemies if you can. In RE5 you were forced to kill ALL enemies to proceed to the next "room"... and in RE6 most of the time you are forced to fight until the invisible timer runs out so the game pushes you into the next room with some crappy cutscene. Actually I am willing to accept Raccoon City gameplay knowing its concept - a "kill" squad, heavy weapons, heavy armor, eliminate everything on sight, its ok to be in third person and to shoot everything that moves. BUT the other games are supposed to be survival horror, survival and horror, you are supposed to be struggling for survival and to be horrified. Well, this ain't happening anymore. You are right that the new games won't work with the classic fixed camera and the old control scheme, because their gameplay is completely different. If they were proper RE games, they would have been using the proper camera and controls ::)

Bullshit. There were different ways to go through areas. That second part is also why you have a map to guide you through the game to let you know which areas you have and haven't explored.

Please.
If the games were still so called
proper RE games (what? :laugh: :laugh:), they wouldn't even be around right now because people were getting sick of the older games formula
back then. This is the reason nobody cared about RE 0 back when it came out and why REmake sold poorly even though they were both good games. The formula had been milked to death, far more than even the newer games have.
The fans can whine all they want. If the games
do go back to even being horror games they're still going to have the third person camera angles and they'll just have to learn to deal with it.
And all that being said, the controls and camera could more often than not make the game a chore to play, sapping whatever fear might be there. See Code Veronica for what I'm talking about.
Bandersnatchers were the cheapest little shits cause of that.
CHALLENGE!1!!! lulz
That's not mentioning the randomly spawning groups of zombies, who are impossible to escape from without either wasting ammo or losing health.
inb4 that's good game design for a horror game
I didn't find any of the games difficult, myself.
On another note; what constitutes casual and hardcore gamer? I've been gaming since I was 6 (32 now), owned dozens of super pcs for gaming over the years, owned just about every console, ranked up a lvl 16 trophy score in under a year... I even made building game assets my career, but I've never understood these labels. What is the difference between a casual and hardcore from the consumer perspective and more importantly why is it important?
Help me understand please because while I won't start segregating people into two camps, I'd like to understand the motivation behind these labels.
Basically a casual is one that plays games socially or titles that are easy to play for a few hours. A hardcore is a daily gamer, usually with titles that require a certian level of skill or dedication.
I donf adhear to either. Im just a gamer. I play when I feel like it and only dedicate myself to a few franchises.
I'm sorry but the older games were harder,Winter is right you are basically moving forward all the time.You had far less ammo in the older games and far less health pickups.Resident evil 5 and 6 you found ammo in almost every single zombie you killed,you didn't find most of your ammo lying around or hidden.In the old games like RE1 and 2 you had to search everywhere when you went into a room,if you missed something like a part of a puzzle you're f**ked.
The puzzles were way harder in the older games,now in the new RE's the puzzles are almost entirely gone and when you do come across one its fairly easy.There was no back tracking either which I loved in the old games,nothing beats the feeling of starting the game,looking at a door that's locked with something etched in the keyhole only to be halfway through the game and finally finding the key then traveling back and opening that door,you got the feeling of true progression instead of just gunning forward with 700 rounds of assault rifle ammo.

The games were mainstream at that point since people went and bought a gamecube
just for those games. The movie helped too, even if it wasn't too good it got the brand title out there and more people checked out the games because of it. Don't give me any of that it wasn't mainstream stuff. RE 2 was the best selling game in the series for a long time for a reason.
Yeah I have told you whats the reason, but you can't accept the fact its missing from the new RE games and we need it back for some really good RE game.
The game wasn't selling well for that reason alone.
It was selling well because people liked it and it was a good game.
Oh and to this?

I'm just here talking about how your backwards ass can't grasp the concept of people don't always like what you like and the fact that those controls and camera angles wouldn't work in this day and age because no one would be scared. They'd be annoyed and frustrated no matter how good the survival horror elements are or how atmospheric the game would be.
I know the survival horror elements are gone. Does it bother me?
f**k no, because even then the games have managed to entertain me. If a game does that, that's f**kin' good enough for me.
To put it in a way that you'll understand: Me likey things u don't likey. :)

Thats not problem of the game though, its the player who can't get used to more complicated (not really) controls. Its a false move for every game to try to satisfy every kind of players out there. It simply can't be done.

This is true. That was one of RE 6's many problems.
It's still doesn't change the fact that the game wouldn't be marketable in this day and age. Maybe as a 15 dollar PSN/MS store download but definitely not a full fledged 60 dollar game. :P
Look how good Resident evil remake looked and played and that came out in 2002,vastly improved camera,gameplay and environments,I would pay 60 bucks all day long if they made a game going back to the series roots.
How about they actually try to make the game scary without falling back on lazy tactics. You know, use creativity and shit.

It's Capcom.
I am relatively new to the series compared to those that played the first one. I played RE4 first almost 10 years ago and loved it. Since then I have loved all of the other entries except for the 6th. The 6th just sucked on every level. I wish fans of the old and new would stop bickering, I love both eras of the franchise, minus the 6th of course.

This is the reason nobody cared about RE 0 back when it came out and why REmake sold poorly even though they were both good games.
Nobody cared because 90% of the good games are niche games. RE wasn't mainstream shit back then.
Wow, what a f**king hipster. :laugh:

Oh, f**k off with that true fan bullshit. There's no such thing. ::)
I like your style. Well said.
I suppose I just remember things differently but I was in high school when REDC was released and all the other kids knew and loved the series. It was quite mainstream.

It was about time. But..... well, I am not excited tbh. Its nothing new. I already finished REmake more than 100 times so this won't be any different gameplay or storywise. But its good addition for those who never played REmake or who don't know what a true RE game looks like.
I believe the reason behind this release is that Crapcom wants to see if the masses will like it so they will bring back this style of gameplay for the new RE game.
The one thing I really want is for RE2 to get the Remake treatment.

The closest we have come is RE Outbreak and ORC... shame.

yeah the first image is better I think. it has the 'stale air' and atmosphere that just gets lost when you make everything clearer for more detail.
Even though I don't have much interest in this new port...I will admit the new control scheme/camera that seems a bit like classic DMC's sounds f**king fantastic. If they can't get rid of tank controls they're at least giving the consumer the next best thing. Good job Capcom, you get a gold star for that.
Hey, Tank Controls are awesome! :P

With the current team at Capcom, that's the very worst thing they could do.
Just do RE 2 Revelations style but with even less ammo, optional tank controls for those who want that, and boom, game is good. :P

I'm indifferent to them really, on one hand, f**k it I get used to dealing with them cause they're never changing that shit. Luckily not being forced to use only the D-pad on the GC/PSN versions of the first 3 games is awesome. On the other hand though, f**k tank controls cause they're outdated as shit. :P

I will never understand the purpose of putting a horror game (or an action game) on a tiny, handheld screen. I have always felt that Resident Evil games are best played in an environment which offers as much immersion as possible, which usually means a dark room and a big screen.
I've heard it suggested that the Remake port may represent Capcom testing the waters to determine if the time is right to bring survival horror back. After the failure of RE6, it would not surprise me that they might be looking for a new strategy, although it's equally possible that they're just rummaging through their closet and porting things for the sake of porting things. One can dream, though...
Resident Evil deserved at least one good hand held game when all the previous ones were shit lmao :P

At least two. One just took the "Mercenaries" battle modes from RE4 and RE5 and combined them. Another was, oddly enough, set on a cruise ship. Everyone has basically forgotten about it, and with good cause.
I think there was another game made for mobile phones.

The protagonists of the game will not be Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield. The game will feature a completely new setting and new protagonists.
New information on Resident Evil: Revelations 2 will be announced next week, Capcom said at Sony's pre-TGS press conference. The game will be at TGS as well, where it will be playable.

Revelations 2 is real and it has zambamboes in it and it doesn't revolve around Jill or Chris. If HUNK's not in this one I'll be a little upset
Eh, I like Jill and all, but I don't feel the need to play as her again. Chris is just annoying, though.

This is the reason I prefer the first two Dino Crisis games to the first 3 RE games. Dino Crisis 1 may have had even dumber more redundant puzzles but it didn't rely on the excuse of standing to shoot to increases tension. It just put you in with enemies that were fast as shit while giving you more mobility and bam instantly scarier than the RE games.

If you run past an enemy and fire in the first SH, Harry will actually turn and shoot at it, and he'll even hit it most of the time, too.

Oh f**k, if Revelations was a step towards Survival Horror, this is them taking an even bigger leap. Jesus I'm actually getting excited for an RE game again... :'(
I was playing the remake today, and I somehow got outmaneuvered and bitten by a really fat zombie. :laugh:
I looks like Alcatraz abit. I love it happens on the island. Code Veronica is one of my favorite, and the island setting was so cool.
Wait... Alcatraz, two new player characters...

An island eh? Time for another Wesker.
QuoteAlex was conducting experiments at the South Seas at an island for Spencer,[4] where he researched and studied a virus in order to find the secret of immortality for him.[

I would be very interested to see that loose end tied up, though I don't hold much hope for it. This Alex fellow has always sounded positively dangerous, in my opinion.
New info plus screenshots.
http://www.push-start.co.uk/all/platform/pc/resident-evil-revelations-2-exciting-new-details-revealed-first-screenshots-claire-redfield-burton-more/ (http://www.push-start.co.uk/all/platform/pc/resident-evil-revelations-2-exciting-new-details-revealed-first-screenshots-claire-redfield-burton-more/)
-Claire Redfield will return as the playable lead and it is said that "In the time since we last saw her (Claire), she's grown to be a seasoned veteran."
-Claire will be joined throughout the campaign with Moira Burton, daughter of the legendary Barry Burton.
-The campaign will be playable in co-op or singleplayer.
-When playing as Claire, her style will be more combat focused. Whereas Moira will be supplying Claire with health herbs, provided the flashlight and general support.
-Claire will be the only player death that will result in a Game Over, one of Moira's key roles will be to help keep Claire alive (though Claire can obviously heal herself).
-The story will take place on an abandoned island detention facility.
-The campaign will begin with Claire and Moira awakening after being abducted.
-The events will take place between the events of Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6.
-Gameplay will be much more Survival Horror orientated (much like the first Resident Evil: Revelations), bringing the series back to its roots with less over the top action, unlike Resident Evil 5 and 6.
-Fan feedback has played a part in the development of Resident Evil: Revelations 2. Producer Okabe said that "The project has been finding the line between listening to fan feedback and also doing something different to confound expectations."
-Okabe also said that "I want this to be both a game that doesn't lose what made its predecessor great, while also bringing something new and exciting to the Resident Evil series." He also added that "Achieving that lofty goal by bringing together past and future will make this an itchy-tasty prospect indeed."
-Resident Evil: Revelations 2 will feature a new "Afflicted" enemy type, which "may look like zombies, but are in fact something quite different."
-The Afflicted enemy will be both fast and able to deal heavy damage to the player. It is also said that they will force the player to decide whether to take them head-on, sneak up using stealth and applying a take-down or the player can run for the hills and "preserve ammo".
-Resident Evil: Revelations 2 will run at 1080p and 60fps (for the PC and new gen versions at least).
Looks like it'll be interesting for sure, but for the love of god I wish they'd stop with the co-op stuff.
f**k yes to all of that.
Also seeing RE running at 60fps (at least for those who haven't played RE 4 Ultimate HD on PC) is going to be fantastic.
If Barry's daughter is mixing herbs, then she better damn well make sandwiches out of them. ;D
Oh, and my current remake playthrough is complete.I scared the shit out of myself running smack into Lisa... when I thought I was running away from her. :laugh: Gonna be starting up RE2 soon-ish, and I'll likely be recording with my new capture card. 8)

I don't mind it. I know it makes the games less scary for some people, but that factor has always been secondary to me - I care more about the idea of people using biology to do terrible things. Other people complain about partner AI being awful, but I've never seen game-breakingly bad partner AI.
Anyway, this time the co-op is different. It's not two well-armed badasses anymore, it's one person with a gun and one person with a flashlight. You're either blind or you're helpless. Brings a different dimension to the game.
Just in case anyone is interested, I'm posting a link to the playlist (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLi3qNHDp3KQyxOVfVaCs3p20c3hVmMEkO) for my RE2 LP.

I actually like this idea. If they're trying to keep co-op while trying to bring in more horror this is probably the best way to do it. It'll also make the A.I. partner useful which was probably my biggest only real problem I had with Revelations. What's the point of an A.I. partner if they ain't going to do shit.
Spoiler
Aside from fully getting rid of the co-op but at this point I'm just going to pretend that's never happening until the day it actually happens. :P

I know this is off-topic, but thanks to your signature, I've read every one of your posts in her voice.
It gets a little weird in a topic about
Resident Evil.
Capcom will be releaseing the HD remake of the gamecube remake of Resident Evil 1 on the 7th and 8th gen Xbox and PS as well as the PC around early 2015. Besides the HD enhancement youll be given the option to play the game with the tank controls or the RE 6 controls. Like every alternate version of each Resident Evil game it should have more new stuff added to it which leads me to the heart of this topic.
Capcom just now released a web app game called "Resident Evil Raccoon City Contageon!" to play you must register with a email account, facebook account, or capcom account. Youll get a custom tag that has your handle, type of zombie you are, and how you were infected.
Also in the game it has funny / cool updates about the damage done to the city.
THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART. Capcom said if we Infect Raccoon City100% everyone registered in this game will GET FREE DLC FOR THE HD RESIDENT EVIL 1 REMAKE! We are at 45% please come and help us get the free dlc for the HD Remake.
You know we have a Resident Evil thread already, right?

Yes that topic your talking about is yours and everyone elses that have posted in it. The topic we are in now is mine alone and has littile to do with yours.
After reading your 2nd I realize I may have judged you as RE fan incorrectly. You have zero RE vids nor ACM vids on your youtube account. Your not a RE fan nor Alien fan but BF4 anime junky. Please go back to your BF4 topic group your not doing any good here.
First off, I'm not a RE fan at all and I never claimed to be. Second, the other thread isn't MY thread, I didn't even make it. It's just the Resident Evil thread. Third, why does it matter what's on my YouTube account? :laugh:
Now we just have to wait for a mod to wake up so they can either delete or merge the thread. :)

They are giving it out for free to anybody, and we are talking about Crapcom here. They invented the on-disc-dlc. Do you really believe its gonna be something spectacular? Lol, how naive. If we even get some mission based DLC, it won't add more than 15 min gameplay. Totally not worth the hassle, since the game is already perfect. It was back then, it would be now ;)

Yeah, the the dirty environment and lighting as well is really reminiscent of it.
I am not sure if I like that, the game looks like a paranormal horror game rather than a sci fi horror game. I might be wrong, i hope I am wrong.

oh wow lol XD I still gotta play it though.
I played the demo for RE6, said "nope nope nope" and told myself it never happened. Funny enough I could get it for like 10 bucks new at Gamestop if I wanted. I'm not gonna, but I could.
6 for all of it's heresy and sinfulness at least managed to entertain me, by the end of Code Veronica I wanted to throw my Gamecube out the window, but then I wouldn't be able to play REmake and RE4. :P
Spoiler
And especially Super Mario Sunshine
lol XD
I also need Zero. I never played that one either. {I know, I suck}
I just finished the police station in RE2, and I'm pretty sure I'm done with the sewers as well.
Spoiler
Let me get this straight: the G virus has turned Birkin into a giant mutant eye/tentacle thingy, which impregnates its victims via tentacle rape, and has just made his own daughter into his mutant baby mama.
Capcom, what is wrong with you?
Oh, and of course this means there will be three more parts uploaded in the coming days. :)
All RE is dumb a f**k. It's also awsome, thats why I love it. Code Veronica is not more or less dumb then others. But Steve was another thing. I used God mode to escape him cause I was one first aid spray short to escape him. Good old days :D
I just finished the A scenario in RE 2. I got my ass handed to me a few times by Vagthulhu at the end, but I pulled through.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFqdX1xcSsU#ws (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFqdX1xcSsU#ws)
Some gameplay was recorded at TGS.
Imma just put some shitty thoughts in the spoiler. :P
Spoiler
I still don't know what to make of this game. Graphically it looks no better than RE6 and that's an insult for PS4/X1/PC players. The crosshair is once again lazily pasted in the center of the screen and looks f**king awful. It sounds like nitpicking but it really looked odd as f**k in Revelations HD when Jill or any playable character was clearly aiming slightly to the left but the shots being fired went to the center of the screen. Guns look weak as shit too and barely seem to have recoil something even RE6 got right. I know, I know, survival horror and all shouldn't be empowering but even the old RE games on the PS1 managed to show just how strong the more powerful guns could be. This could be an effect of the YouTube 30fps lock since it's been well known for a while the game will run at 60fps on current gen consoles and PC. So maybe it makes the gun firing look a bit off?
On the other hand it looks like it's had many improvements from the original Revelations. For one the camera while aiming seems to be at a much better distance, somewhere around where it is in RE 4 when you have Ashley with you. There's more freedom in your movement. The character switching in the vein of RE0 is pretty cool. Also, despite my bitching about the crosshairs they're still an improvement over the first Revelations. Can't really say much more since this gameplay demo really doesn't show much. I hope an official demo preview gets released soon.
Also if you notice the regenerating health just remember the original 3DS demo for the first Revelations had regenerating health but it was never in the second demo or full game.
Looks like a RE6 expansion to be honest, looks to be reusing nearly all the animations from 6. Going through all those small hallways in co-op will be a pain in the ass, the character switching does look cool though.
Offline co-op only? Does that mean the obnoxious real time inventory is gone? ;D
Well it was kind of gone in the first Revelations. I hope it's fully gone this time though.
I just want the attache case back. That was one fun ass bit of pseudo-tetris.
So it turns out that whole infecting shit on the website is basically for free DLC of the outfits Chris and Jill wore during the Lost In Nightmares scenario in RE5.
The butthurt levels on the Facebook page are fantastic. :laugh:
So many people trying to deny anything past RE 3 as canon and pulling the true fan card. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
LOL, how are they denying anything past RE3? The only thing that I'm aware of that is not canon is that whole Barry Burton ship thing for what, the Gameboy Color?

I mean, granted, I mentally separate the series into before and after the destruction of Raccoon City, but I'm not going to pretend that the later stuff isn't canon.
I mean what the f**k did people expect? It's Capcom. At best they'd have included a new weapon or an Easter Egg or some shit.

LOL, how are they denying anything past RE3? The only thing that I'm aware of that is not canon is that whole Barry Burton ship thing for what, the Gameboy Color?
The only non-canon entries are Biohazard: Gaiden, Biohazard Gun Survivor 2 (techinically it was a dream), and Operation Raccoon City. Everything else is very much part of the mythos.
If its Resident Evil and has a number attached, its Canon. No two ways about it.
Capcom's fault they went too actiony, they should have known better. Atleast with Revelations 2 it looks like its a steer in the right direction after being off course for so long.

Capcom should be with desperate after two f**king games (RE6 and RE: ORC), and now in fear of Komani rival. The Silent Hills trailer with Hideo Kojima and the director Guillermo del Toro, is guaranteed success.
It was good that guest is transformed the game, the great return of a survivor horror.

Seriously can't wait for REmake HD next month, only question is which platform I pick it up for (XB1/PS4), depends which controller feels right but I bet there is something Nostalgic playing a Resident Evil game on a Playstation Pad and Console.

Playing the HD REmake As Jill and I didnt use V-Jolt on the plant but Barry still didnt show up with the flamethrower? Gutted I wanted to see that scene again. Ive been online and im getting conflicting info on how you get him to appear at this part. Some are saying you need to use the V-Jolt and the plant comes back but Barry rescues you and some are saying its the opposite and it depends on earlier encounters with Barry. Earlier he gave me some acid rounds in the entrance hall and im thinking because he gave me those thats why he didnt show up because i had the firepower to beat it alone. God its a right head f**k trying to work out what little things trigger what.
He shows up if you use the V-Jolt. That's how it always worked for me.

I never got any acid rounds off of him, but using the V-jolt on the plant did cause Barry to storm in and flame the hell out of the plant.
Sweet ill try that next time. Couldnt be arsed with doing the V Jolt puzzle so I just fought the bastard myself. Anyway just finished it. Wasnt quick enough to save Barry from the tyrant. Soz Bazza.
I feel like back in my childhood playing RE HD (I was 9 or 10 when I played it) :D
I try to beat it without looking at guides and it's pretty hard for me. I don't remember shit :/ and I'm still scared, what I didn't expect.
I just made it to the residence, but I'm almost out of ammo (pumpgun 11 rounds, grenade launcher 11 rounds). Hopefully I still make it.
Just finished RE2 for the first time. Played as Leon A and then Claire A and thought whats the point in playing the B scenarios theres barely any difference in these two aside from the police chief / reporter and sherry / ada. Boy am I glad I gave Leon B a whirl before moving onto RE3. Being stalked by that tyrant in the trench coat and the different bosses was a nice surprise. I would have f**king loved this shit as a kid if id played it back in 1998.
Anyway not too far into RE3 but im really liking this one. Alot more action but the seemingly random encounters with Nemesis (not sure if they are but the ones in the streets seem to be not the ones where you get a choice in what to do) are great and its a different kind of horror. Rather than slow and brooding like the first two its just sheer panic at the drop of a hat. Really like it.
Im glad you like them Keg. It would be nice to go back to the originals and play them through fresh eyes. Maybe one of these days Capcom will learn what made the original series good.
For some reason I could never enjoy the old school RE games, I loved the Silent Hill series but I could never fall in love with Resident Evil. I love the new Revelations series though, those games do a good job taking the stories into the next generation of consoles while keeping the horror aspect.

Had to take a break from Code Veronica it was getting a bit tedious. Cant wait to finish it and play RE4. Never played 4 and ive heard great things. I'll probably pick up the two revelations games on PS3 while im at it and 5 and 6 will be dirt cheap now.
I know what you're talking about, Code Veronica was horrendous; I mean, I was never a fan of the old school RE games but wow, it was SO long. As someone who has beat it already, I feel I should warn you that there will be a time coming up in which your character will rely on health items and if you don't have enough (about 2 at least) then you will have to restart your entire game to get them. Contrary to popular belief, there are actually quite a few health items around, they're just REALLY hard to make out even in the HD remake; try using a FAQ to help discover where they all are, it really saved my ass. :)

I didn't feel C:V was "horrendous." I wasn't really a fan of some elements of the game, and that specific part Predxeno is talking about felt like kind of a dick move, but overall, I liked the game.
I'd recommend keeping alternating save slots, just in case you do run into that part with nary an herb to spare. Of course, it's best to have at least two health items stashed away in the box at all times.
Four was...a complete departure. In some ways, it was a much-needed update of the series, but a lot of what I liked about the old games was lost. It's very fun, though.

I would definitely keep a save slot where you can still access Claire from the mansion you enter at the beginning of the game, that way you can return to pick up any herbs you may have missed and not have start from Square 1.
Which part are you guys referring to? I got to the antarctic base and thats where ive left it for now. Probably come back to it next week. Ill try and keep a few health items in the box until the end of the game just incase.
Anyway so far to get to this point (which i thought was the end of the game but clearly a long way off now) its taken me about the same time as its took me to finish the first 3 games for the first time. About 5 or 6 hours. The game itself is decent and is fun to play like the others but after playing 3 classic RE games in a row ( I played both Chris and Jills stories in RE and played 3 of the 4 scenarios in RE2) this ones starting to outstay its welcome. I will finish it though. May as well ive got this far.
If you still have saves with Claire at the mansion, don't save over them yet. Without spoiling too much, there is a sort-of boss battle where the only thing you need to do is run away; unfortunately, he's going to get 2-3 good hits on you each which will send you to critical and that's where you need to 2 medsprays or red+green herbs, that's about 90% through the game though so you still have opportunities to get more herbs, just don't use them excessively. How many you got right now, do you remember?
I don't want to spoil too much, but there's going to be a point where you're not running around Antarctica anymore, and then a point where you are again. Once you're back, hoard herbs like you need them to live.
Jesus how long is this game?
Takes about 10-12 hours to finish:

Nah, haven't played it. I did finish Revelations 2 ep1 though. Barry is great as ever, but Moira is annoying as f**k. Also did Capcom envy Telltale Clementine???
I like to think that Operation Raccoon City is the most realistic RE game; call me a hater of mindless shooting, but it just stops being realistic for me when enemies can survive headshots and/yet the main character is powerful enough to somehow overwhelm armies of gun-toting maniacs (some of whom have miniguns). RE: ORC has none of these problems and I never have to worry about wasting limited ammo trying to get headshots that won't kill my target.
Keg,
This may be useful as a guide if you are experiencing the series for the first time.
http://www.scribd.com/doc/213301704/The-Complete-Series-Playthrough-Editorial (http://www.scribd.com/doc/213301704/The-Complete-Series-Playthrough-Editorial)
Been trying my best to play them without using any guides. Figured without the fun of figuring out where to go and what to do next, the classic games wouldnt be as enjoyable and would feel like too much of a slog constantly stopping to read a quid. I have used one when ive got stuck for too long. The longest i got stuck was in RE3. I'd revisited every location over and over and searched every area thoroughly and couldnt figure out how to get into the petrol station as i waa expecting to find a new handle or something to use on the broken crank. Turns out all i had to do was use the wrench which id used to get the fire hose earlier. Doh.
It's not a walkthrough guide, it's a document on how to go through the entire series in the correct chronological order with analysis on each title. It contains a brief time line and it may be worth reading the sections on some of the side games you may be missing out on such as gun survivor.
With Biohazard being Japanese, unfortunately 65% of the overall plot and backstory are missing from the game. most is locked away in supplemental material never released in English and the rest is down to shoddy translations with the files.
Not bothering with any of the gun survivor, umbrella chronicles, outbreak or operation racoon city games. Just 0,1,2,3,CVX,4,5,6 and the two Revelations games. I know Revelations is set between 4 & 5 and Revelations 2 is between 5 & 6. Might watch the two Leon CGI movies as well.
Cheers for that though ;D. I'm all set.
EDIT: I gather from the way RE3 panned out that it starts at a similar time to (or before) RE2 but obviously jumps ahead a few days after RE2 when Jill is unconscious. Other than that its straight forward.
Don't bother with the first CG film. It's bland as f**k and almost nothing happens through the short 90 minute run time. Second one is infinitely better.
RE3 begins on September 28th until just after midnight on Sep 29th when Jill is infected. RE2 then begins Sep 29th evening and runs until the morning of Sep 30th. RE3 then picks up again just after midnight and runs until dawn on October 1st.
The continuity there is such a clusterf**k. Like, how did Leon and Claire just waltz into Raccoon without noticing anything strange? :laugh:
They do. The opening is basically them stumbling into the shit storm and thats where they cross paths.

It's explained in the Japanese supplemental materials. The U.S. Government wanted to bomb Raccoon City not to prevent the spread of the infection, but to actually stop Umbrella getting their hands on the G-Virus. Derek Simmons pushed to get the missile strike done as soon as possible, thus the army barricades were rescinded allowing Leon and Claire to stroll right in. But Oswell Spencer's political influence, and the U.B.C.S. portraying videos to the world's media of them 'heroically' rescuing the civilians, pushed the sterilisation operation back to October 1st, by which time Hunk had already got the G-Virus out for Umbrella. The whole Raccoon City saga is basically a cold war between Umbrella and the U.S. Government. But sadly, none of this stuff is reflected in the actual games.
Is that the same Simmons who becomes a were-T. rex in RE6?
Yeah but we don't talk about that ;)
YES WE DO
IT WAS THE ONLY GOOD PART OF RE 6
It was certainly a cool-looking monster - but it was ridiculous even for this series.
Sounds like a Dino Crisis 3 crossover. :laugh:
Speaking of which, I'm considering purchasing Dino Crisis for PS3; how similar/dissimilar is that series from this one? I know they're both made by Shinji Mikami, but I intensely disliked the original tank RE games (yet I loved the tank Silent Hill games). I think this is because while they both have similar controls, Silent Hill just does a better job in evoking emotions by utilizing not only scary enemies but scary environments like the Otherworld. Also, while I wasn't a huge zombie fan starting out on RE, I am STILL a huge dinosaur fan.
DC 1 was very similar to the early RE games - fixed camera, limited resources, limited inventory space, occasional puzzles. I think it was about comparable difficulty; one interesting aspect is that some of the most common weapons you have don't kill - they just incapacitate.
The inventory system is frustrating as hell, though. Instead of one network of storage boxes, you have three networks of storage bins - and at each location, the bin has to be unlocked with a plug. So, good luck storing medical supplies and hoping to get them later.
Key items do not take up space, though.
Dino Crisis is basically Resident Evil with dinosaurs replacing the zombies. They literally control the same way, same fixed camera angles, same tank controls and aiming system too. Its a great game and i still replay it every couple of years.
The sequel is similar but moves away from the survival horror and becomes an action game but damn is it good. Dino Crisis 2 is one.of my favourite games of all time. I was gutted when DC3 deviated so much and didnt pick up the plot from the ending of DC2. Speaking of the plot, it might not have as much impact now but the first time I played it I f**king loved the huge twist towards the end of the game. It blew my mind as a kid as I didnt see it coming at all.
So yes id definately recommend you play them.
Which twist? There were two related twists, if I recall. You'll probably want to put the answer in spoilers, of course, since someone's asking whether they're worth playing.
Spoiler
When you find out that you havent actually gone back in time, but forward a few million years and the guy on the hologram is Dylans future self. Then the ending where he gets trapped bringing it full circle. I was so looking forward to a third game with Regina coming back to rescue him and correct the timeline. We got space dinosaurs instead. What the f**k Capcom?
That twist never really sat well with me.
Spoiler
First, how would they have transported all of the dinosaurs to the distant future? Second, presumably the people who sent Regina to rescue the people of Edward City must have had a somewhat decent understanding of Third Energy-based time travel to do so...so wouldn't they have realized that they were sending her to the future instead of the past?
But yeah, I definitely share your complaint about how DC3 went.

What do you all think of Revelations Two so far? Is it better than its predecessor?
I've played 3/4 of the main campaign so far and id say so. :)
My full walkthrough of the entire game (no commentary):

After a couple of weeks away ive returned to Code Veronica and within an hour I think ive hit some kind of game breaking bug. Either that or the most ludicrously designed game where you can actually get completely stuck (and no im not talking about not having enough ammo). Im in the Antarctic base as Claire and ive just had a cutscene where steve was staring at Claires ass and crashed this big drill thing releasing toxic gas. Now to reset the gas i need a crank which is according to guides in the room with the gas which i should have picked up before triggering the cut scene. Not to worry I thought theres a room with a gas mask that said it would release in an emergency or something to that effect. Well i went back and it didnt. Checked a guide again and apparently to get that to unlock you need to move a bow gas container on the rollers in the big room. But ive already done that? What the f**k? Anyone help me? If I backtrack through that f**king moth corridor one more time trying to figure out what to do my gamecubes going through the f**king window.
Did you put the barcode on the BOW box when you sent it to the room?
Get in you beauty. Nope thats what ive missed. Thank you so much. Think ill reload an earlier save anyway coz of all the back tracking through the moth corridor ive used a few unnecessary bullets and healing items after theyve latched on and poisoned me.
I think you have a square crank and you need to use a machine to turn it into an octagon crank in order to make it work.
Figured all that out now. It was the barcode on the box i missed. Now playing as Chris and back in the airport area on the island. Jesus this game has more false endings than Return Of The King. Getting a bit bored of it now. Just want to play RE4 now but i may as well plod on. Cant be that much left surely?
I think you're about 70% through; if you're playing as Chris then while you still have a ways to go, you're almost there.
Does anyone have Revelations 2 for PS3? I'm looking for a coop partner.
Gonna get Revelations 1 and 2 as well once im done with 4, 5 & 6. Just remembered ive got RE0 to play as well but ill save that for another time. Ive had my fill of the "classic" gameplay for now thanks to CVX dragging on and on haha.
By the way back when this was released was it known that you play as Chris so late in the game? I get the feeling if it wasnt it would have had the opposite effect when we switched from Snake to Raiden in MGS2 and everyone was gutted.
I wouldn't know as I only recently completed it a few months ago and I hated the classic RE games (except for RE2).

The difference is that Chris is sort of a badass, and Raiden at the time was...not, really.
I never liked the Chris and Jill combo; their relationship and personalities always felt superficial, like they were more centered on action than character. Claire and Leon both had more emotional depth in their stories, like the relationships they form with other people such as Ada Wong, Sherry Birkin, Rani Chawla, and Moira Burton. Code Veronica is actually the only game where Claire's character feels flat but I imagine that's because Chris was in the game also. ;)
No, it's because her character arc is almost all built around f**king Steve.
Yeah, Steve wasn't a particularly great character, they didn't even bring him back for a sequel despite how they left his plotline open for one, but what I said earlier about Chris was more my idea of trying to tell a joke, not very well it seems.
Seriously though, there are no Revelations 2 PS3 players here? :(
Steve is one of the most irritating characters ive ever came across in a game. That f**king voice. Jesus. And he's a complete weirdo. Creeping up for an unsuspecting bit neck on with Claire while she's sleeping. Yeah mate thats a bit rapey. The whole game is utterly batshit. Weskers powers and that f**king cross dresser squealing like a girl.
In hindsight now that ive nearly finished all the classic games I cant believe all the shit RE5 got for being stupid and over the top. People must have had their rose tinted glasses on because theres nothing in RE5 that isnt equally as stupid as something thats come before it in an earlier game (especially CVX).
And then there's thatpPart where Steve ducks up the drill because he was checking out Claire's ass. :laugh:
Well im sorry to say I didnt finish CVX. It outstayed its welcome way way too long and I was getting bored shitless and just wanted to get cracking with RE4. I just went on Youtube and watched one of those condensed edits with all the cutscenes gameplay snippets tying it together. Still dont really have a f**king clue what the story was about, it was mental. Actually felt really sorry for Steve though. Started off as the most irritating character ever but his intentions were always good.
Well onto RE4 and wow this game is superb. Just got to the church and rescued Ashley and so far its incredible. This would have blown my mind 10 years ago. Bit worried its going to turn a bit irritating having to worry about Ashley but seems ok so far. Dont know why i noticed it because its probably standard fare now but for a game thats 10 years the reload animations are bloody brilliant.
No worries, CVX was just one long grind for me as well. :( And my tolerance for crappy stuff is much longer than most people's. When you start RE 5, RE 6, or RE Revelations 2, and if you have a PS3 be sure to friend me and I'll be you coop partner. ;) I've done them on single-player and trust me it's better (and easier) when your partner isn't a bad AI. Operation Raccoon City might be the only exception to this rule, but that was a damn fine game.

Well im sorry to say I didnt finish CVX. It outstayed its welcome way way too long and I was getting bored shitless and just wanted to get cracking with RE4. I just went on Youtube and watched one of those condensed edits with all the cutscenes gameplay snippets tying it together. Still dont really have a f**king clue what the story was about, it was mental. Actually felt really sorry for Steve though. Started off as the most irritating character ever but his intentions were always good.

Ashley comes and goes throughout the game and really so long as you're clever with where you place her, she's no trouble. Easily still the best escort mission in a game ever.
Good to know. Nothing worse than an irritating escort section that ruins an otherwise good game. Best example ive seen of an escort mission done right was Enslaved. It was the whole damn game but it was brilliant.
Any news on Resident Evil 7?
No, I think we'll sooner hear from Revelations 3 than RE 7.
My only complaint with RE4 is that the castle far outstays it's welcome.
I didn't find RE 4 to be scary at all so I fail to see why people call it a survival horror classic. ???

The beta was hella scary and weird.... you should of seen all the original stuff planned for resident evil 4....
but upon final release? it turned into an action flick... 0_o
I don't like the beta, it wasn't anything like a Resident Evil game. I mean, dolls? Really?

Dolls?
didnt see that.
i remember the video shown for it.
Dark atmosphere zombies creepy music etc and some zombie with chains?
all of that never made it in the final release.
I was thinking of the one with Leon walking through a series of rooms and running into weird, vaguely supernatural shit. May have been an earlier build I'm thinking of.

That was just 'pre-test footage' it wasn't a beta or going to be in the game, what it was is CAPCOM showing off the games engine for the future resident evil 4.
Right ive just finished RE4. Now regardless of if you think its a good RE game (its not scary, action orientated, no zombies) this is just flat out an amazing game. One of the best most enjoyable gaming experiences ive ever had. If 5 and 6 weren't up next i'd be diving straight back in for another run. Absolutely superb and I can understand why its often hailed as the one best games ever made. So glad i decided to go back and play these games to see what id missed. RE2, RE3 and this have been superb.
If you liked RE 4 then you'll really like The Evil Within; it's directed by the same person who did RE 4, Shinji Mikami, and is considered the spiritual sequel to RE 4 since it has the same game mechanics and such, but improved for next gen gaming.
How do you unlock Separate Ways? Ive unlocked Assignment Ada and Mercenaries but I wanted to play Separate Ways before moving onto RE5 but that didnt unlock?
I may be misremembering, but I think you need to finish assignment Ada to unlock it.
Everywhere ive looked it says you just need to finish the game and it unlocks along with Assignment Ada and Mercenaries.
Edit: Bollocks its not in the GC version. It was added later in the PS2 and PC versions. Ahh man sounded pretty good to play a parallel mini campaign from her perspective. I might download the HD version one day and check it out.
Playing the first Revelations game now. This is more like it. Plays like 4 & 5 but in a more traditional RE set up in terms of location. Im enjoying this one immensely so far and really looking forward Revelations 2. Not really looking forward to 6 much.
What console you on?
PS3
Nice, if you want to do coop for any of the Resident Evil games, id be glad to help; I've been looking for a coop partner for this series for awhile. :)
Didnt quite finish RE5 before I jumped into this one as id played it before but yeah I wouldnt mind starting RE5 again and playing it in co-op. Its really noticeable that its not really designed to be played alone (which is something Dead Space 3 got right if you preferred going it alone). Im not very good so it'll have to be on normal. Ill give you a shout when im done with Revelations and we can go through RE5 together if you like.
Sure thing, also the same seems to hold true with Revelations 2 as well; it's technically doable on solo but you'll have a MUCH easier time on coop. My pan is predxeno btw, same as my username here .

"You need health! You need health!"
f**k me, I hate the inventory in RE5.
And the winner if the most ridiculous and impractical outfit in a RE games to (no not Ada in a cocktail dress and high heels for a mission in a muddy spanish? village) Jessica. WTF? Shes got a wetsuit type thing on that only has one leg and shes wearing high heels? Is this supposed to be sexy? The f**k is wrong with the Japanese. Its bizarre.
Oh lol, you saw that too, huh? Yeah, Resident Evil can sometimes go for the hot, sexy hero tripe instead of the practical soldier type.
How do you get into the swimming pool on the cruise ship. Ive used the filtration system but Parker says come back later? Do I just come back in a later episode? And what is it? Just a secret area? I think i might have possibly missed it. Ive just finished the episode where the ship is hit by a massive wave so im guessing after this some areas might no longer be accessible.
Do you remember specifically which episode you're on?
I was at the start of episode 8. It was episode 7 when I turned on the filtration but ive never had a chance to get back to that big hub area with the chandelier since. Im on episode 10 now and it feels like everything is moving to the climax so think ive missed the opportunity. Hope I havent missed an awesome weapon.
You missed an ammo pouch, some shotgun shells and a custom parts box I believe. :P
Yeah In the very next chapter I played as Parker and went there. Picked up a custom part but not even sure if it would then be available for Jill as shes the only one that can upgrade weapons. There was an absolute shit tonne of grenades too which where a waste for Parker as well.
Anyway what a great game this was considering it was only originally for a handheld. The limitations that put on the game actually helped it be a better game sticking to smaller, claustrophobic spaces and the new enemies where a damn sight better than the Las Plagas from 4 and 5. Some pretty decent bosses as well. The giant whale infected was a great idea and the almost "nemesis" like final boss was a great design too.
Oh snap.

Hopefully they go the same route as REmake, otherwise I see Capcom ruining this. They're largely incompetent.
They are incompetent. The team that made RE2 left the company years ago and the current team are yet to make a critically successful Resident Evil title. This is a poor idea.
They were probably encouraged by the reaction towards the FF remake. And they need people to be excited about their tired old IP. If it's anything like REmake then awesome. Trouble is I have next to no faith in these companies any more.
Watch it be a upscale remaster of the PS1 game then a full blown remake like the Gamecube RE1 game was.

Didn't they already pull that with the Gamecube ports? I remember at the time expecting a remake in the vein of the first game. Granted, most folk buying into the series now are too young to remember a time before RE5...
I remember buying RE2 and RE3 on the Gamecube and finding out that they where just there no different then how they look on the PS1 and Capcom made fans buy it for $40 back in 2003. RE2 on Ebay and used on Amazon at the time was much cheaper to buy. I would hope the remake of RE2 is a remake similar how RE1 was on the Gamecube with the latest graphics. I'm surprise it took them this long to do it since fans where hoping a RE2 remake would happen when the PS3 and 360 where new.
The people behind the remastering of Resident Evil 0 seem competent enough though, just look at the developer diaries they have released:

It really is. :laugh:
Instead of re-release cash-ins, when is Capcom gonna give some news on RE7? Although I am not sure I want to hear any at this point after seeing RE6 and Revelations 2. While Rev 2 wasn't necessarily bad, I am tired of Capcom recycling the same characters instead of continuing lesser explored characters' story arcs. Not to mention this was the first official RE canon with Claire Redfield without her usual actress! I want to see Rebecca and Billy return instead of the usual Chris and Leon.
Edit: I just heard about Capcom making a remake of RE2. That's awesome! While I am not a fan of remakes, the REmake was a great game I to see RE2 updated could be awesome. The only sad thing is that they will re release that remake like the REmake down the road for a quick cash in.
I rarely ever post but in the past I did make a few which resulted in interesting discussions. I recall several members being fans of RE/Bio so I figured you guys might be interested in this.

Its Called "Umbrella Corps" and was revealed at the recent "TGS". Capcoms billing it as a competitive 3rd/1st person shooter spin off. My guess is their going to try to make their way into the recent "E-Sports" craze. As of right now its going to be exclusive to the PS4 and PC. The price tag is $30 US. Personally I'm sort of "meh" about the title. I intend to buy it and will probably enjoy it, but I don't think Capcom should be selling it as the title to celebrate the 20th anniversary of RE/Bio (Which is what their doing). Thoughts and opinions?
Quick Facts in spoiler below.
Spoiler
1. Shown at TGS. Had a playable demo along with a reveal trailer.
2. Will be titled "Biohazard Umbrella Corps" in Japan but simply "Umbrella Corps" in the US, nothing said about other regions yet.
3. Will be released on PS4 and PC (Via Steam).
4. Priced at $30.
5. Runs on Unity Engine.
6. Demo was three vs three. With the game type being a no respawns deathmatch.
7. Game play focuses heavily on an "analog cover" system, along with the use of zombies as shields.
8. Game is third person except when aiming down sights (Hard aiming). When doing so you switch to a first person perspective.
9. Melee combat is featured with the use of the "Brainer" (A cross between a crowbar, and icepick, also called the "Cronus" on the official site.) being shown as the primary melee weapon. Can be parried with another brainer and is used to execute other players. It also is used to traverse the maps.
10. The maps shown were tight quartered but featured some vertical aspects. Capcom stated they will be basing the maps off of historical locations throughout the series.
11. Besides the brainer, the other pieces of equipment shown were "Terrain spikes" (Boot mounted spikes for curb stomping), a "Tactical Shield (Arm mounted shield, allows for use of zombies as shields by having them bite it and is automatically raised when you pull out your side arm to protect you from headshots), and the "Zombie Jammer" (A back mounted piece of equipment that cloaks your from the zombies senses, but can be shot and destroyed/EMPed by a grenade referred to as the "Jammer Buster" on the Polygon podcast).
12. Apparently has three playable classes. One called "Assault" (Has a shotgun), one called "Close Quarters" and the third went unnamed in the Escapist article listed above.
13. Official site states the game as being online only.
14. Official site states they've "pruned away the story elements."
15. In Depth customization and leveling system.
16. The story is set after RE/Bio 6 and part of the main RE/Bio canon.
17. Free DLC at some point. No micro transactions.
18. No cross play between PC and PS4.
Story Synopsis taken from the official site in spoiler below.
Spoiler
The year was 2003. Umbrella's secret biological weapon development caused the unprecedented biohazard outbreak that descended upon Raccoon City and led to the collapse of the pharmaceutical conglomerate. However, the destruction of Umbrella did not mean the end of bioterrorism; ironically, their downfall allowed the threat of B.O.W.s to spread further across the globe.
Fast forward to 2015: Bioterror is rampant throughout the world, and the research left behind by Umbrella has only increased in value. Combatants slip into quarantine districts infested with the infected. Many are zombie hunters entering on their own for sport, but behind the scenes are businesses seeking to obtain treatment development rights or develop new B.O.W.s.
Still, Umbrella Corps isn't here to tell you a story...
The battle between the players who venture into this world IS the story!
EDIT: I'll update this post as I find relevant information about the title.

Cause this definitely worked well in operation racoon city or whatever it was called. Ugh.
At least I can look forward to the RE2 remake.
O how the franchise went down same thing with silent hill and FEAR 3.
Killing of Wesker was the biggest mistake ever...
But least there is 'Alex' **Hint Hint**
Alex is gone too...
And the RE2 remake will be a shambles. Anyone who believes it will be like the game cube remake of the first game are kidding themselves.

oh you mean the 'woman' alex? damn i guess capcom went all lame....
The CANON Alex is a male and was the wiser/older brother of Albert.... i guess they scrapped that idea? idiot capcom..
they're remaking RE2? for what platform?
they should just remake the whole lot
0/1/2/3/4/5/6 for PS4 and bring us RE7 soon?
Well, Alex does survive to some extent and has potential to reappear.

Or what if neo-umbrella goes to the volcano, puts it on ice, and clones Wesker. But something goes wrong in the facility, BOWs escape, and now Wesker who barely remembers anything helps Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, Barry Burton, and Ron Pearlman escape the facility

It's just a copy of her digitised consciousness imprinted into Natalia. The mind transfer itself was a spectacular failure. Alex died when she shot herself. Whatever happens in the future will be 100% Natalia but Alex's dormant personality may surface every now and again to influence her actions. It's very similar to what happened in RE zero with James Marcus.

Resident Evil 7 ~ Biohazard takes place during 2017, and this like in 2021. Also the video is about creating a character using a single reference with a very similar end result. It is not entirely a complaint despite how the title reads. More like an educational exercise I'd say.

Thanks for your answer. I totally misunderstood the premise of this game lol.
I enjoyed 7 quite a lot. But this one, I don't know... It feels boring is filled with all the typical modern game shit.
I think it has a great atmosphere, but I don't think it's scary at all unless it's one of your first horror games. The story is out of this world lol, trying to reattach itself to earlier entries despite any common sense makes the plot silly.
Isn't it only related to 7 directly at all?

I just completed my first run through of RE Village this weekend and have to say it was a pleasant surprise for me especially considering how much I was against the continuation of Ethan's story. They managed to carry on his story in the best way possible and gave him a bit more personality this time around to actually kind of enjoy him as a major character in the 8th installment. I look forward to replaying this game again and am really curious to see where they take
Spoiler
the BSAA twist at the end. It's a great opportunity to bring characters like Jill and Barry back with a storyline like this.
8/10
Also, the Beneviento house was scary as hell to play through. Very well done.

David's Lab at the end that's so egregious.
(https://i.redd.it/utrginghs3y61.jpg)
Also the plot's basically just Silent Hill 1.
I do love Gothic Horror though...
I noticed the similarities during that bit of the game too! Honestly loved it for it.
I finally finished it today.
RE7 was better, this feels kind of like what RE4 felt like after the first three games. Its not bad, its just different compared to what I expected.
Spoiler
I think the next numbered game will feature Rose as the protagonist and you will actually get to play as a bioweapon with actual abilities.
I didnt think of covenant at all during that particular part, because RE has been doing the creepy lab setting since 1996.
Yes ripping off Alien since 1996.
It's not like Alien is all that original itself.
It basically straight rips off Planet of the Vampires for the first half of the movie, and It! The Terror from Beyond Space the second half.
Alien just perfected an already well used formula with better writing, characters, set design and creature effects. As well as how they brought the creature aboard.
If you ever watch Planet of the Vampires you might be super surprised to see how well Alien "mimics" its first half. When I finally watched it I thought it borderlined on plagiarism.
And I can't really see how Alien and RE are that similar. RE would have more in common with Aliens.
I meant the franchise, and yeah I'm aware Alien's as similar to Planet of the Vampires, as Geralt's to Elric. But Resident Evil's imitated Alien(s), repeatedly since the beginning, it's really no surprise the recent entry imitated Alien Covenant. And the prequels in general to be honest, you might even say that the horror survival first person whole thing that Biohazard capitalized on, with a persistent monster chasing you? Only exists because of Alien Isolation (& P.T. Silent Hills) in my honest view, and dozens of imitators, like Observer.
Much like the way Doom came so close to being an Alien licensed thing, the franchise once again, failed to capitalise on the initial potential success they created.
Imagine what the Alien franchise might be today, if instead of letting Resident Evil Biohazard steal their thunder, they created a sequel to Isolation right away exploiting The Pathogen to create a similar experience?
Missed opportunity.
I think you are giving the Aliens series too much credit.
Outlast was the first run from everything and hide game that had the first person view that I can remember.
And in this game Ethan goes full doomslayer mode. Its not really the same thing.
Obviously there are influences from one of the most popular horror/scifi series ever made, but I havent really felt that RE has ever been as blatant about stealing source material as Alien was from Planet of the Vampires.
Police/military types going to investigate strange happenings goes all the way back to the fifties. Them! is a prime example of an Aliens movie before Aliens.
Before this goes any further, I'm not saying RE has NO inspiration from Alien, the fact that the Alien design is so engraved in peoples heads make monster creation without that influence almost impossible, I'm just saying that I don't think the RE series is a play by play, trope by trope recreation of the Alien series.
I don't get where the Alien comparison is coming from. Romero movies? sure. Evil Dead? sure. Alien? I don't see it.
I blew through REmake3 recently, thought it was okay but boy they sure cut a lot of shit out. I blame it on the mulitplayer bullshit.
I actually found both REmakes to be somewhat disappointing. The cutting of second campaign in RE 2 to just a rehash of the first campaign annoyed the shit out of me. Especially since the first RE2 had FOUR DIFFERENT campaigns. Claire A was not the same as Claire B, nor were Leon's campaigns the same. There should have at LEAST been alternating chapters between the two OR two full differing campaigns. To have to fight the same bosses in the same arenas was stupid.
RE3 was originally a short game, so RE3 being short didn't especially bother me I just didn't like some creative decisions they made. I personally feel that they should have had more interaction with the UBCS like the original game, and that there should've been a longer section of the game devoted to the racoon city portion of the original. Seeing the UBCS running around the city was the first time a RE game didn't feel so barren. Like it was just you vs countless zombies (even though that doesn't change it felt like other people were there).
I also didnt like Nicholai's death in this one. I liked it better in the original where you could choose the way he died.
There was also some issues with Jill I didn't like. They wanted her to be tough, but then they have her deepthroating a bug.

Me neither. Other than people fighting a non-human monster, with a shady corporation involved, but that's not exactly exclusive to Alien, and is a fairly generic trope.

Agreed.
Resident Evil has always been inspired by many other media sources. It's never been anything new and they usually manage to make it their own for the story being told in whatever game being made. The final form of Nemesis in REmake 3 even bore a resemblance to the face of the Queen Alien. They're just subtleties. I don't see the harm in other artists drawing inspiration from another's work anyways.
I'm not a complete fan of the first person perspective that the series has started to take on (though I do think that P.T. inspired many game designers and showed developers that survival horror would sell) but there is no denying that it feels more immersive.
Based mostly on storytelling, this is my ranking of the series so far (skipping games like the Outbreak series and also lumping together the remakes with the originals):
1. REmake
2. REmake 2
3. RE Revelations 2
4. RE Code Veronica

And Isolation's the first I can think of that not only stood out amongst many others, but key to that particular fascination, it had survival horror first person resource management- not only a hide in lockers simulator 2014 as everything following Amnesia practiced.
Does adding "first person" in front of "resource management" really make it unique, though? The RE games have always had resource management, it's a bit of a stretch to say they're aping Isolation by maintaining it in first person.
The pacing and necessity of the combat with the molded's nearly identical to that of the Working Joes so yes to me it is, I'm not the only person to catch on to this either though, many an article say much the same thing.
The molded are literally the zombies/hunters/lickers/etc. of RE7. They are no different from prior enemies in past games.
What Capcom did change with RE7 was the persistent infected characters who stalk around the house and require you to either hide from or stun them to escape. But you could also argue that Capcom started this concept on a lesser scale with Nemesis or even Mr.X in the original RE3 and RE2.
We can, however facetiously, claim all survival horror games are Alien inspired because of the original Commodore/ZXSpectrum/Toaster oven game from the 80s which was one of the first.
I'm not being facetious.
Well damn :laugh:

You're probably right about that... The whole "The Fathers story is over" quote at the end kinda alludes to that.
I just wish they would work the Alex/Natalia storyline into the main games and quit with all these throwaway villains. Alex fits the bill for being an ultimate baddie who could easily make a lasting mark on the series. She literally has the upper hand.
Natalia and Rose are close to the same age that it could still potentially work even with a jump in the timeline...
Makes me want another Silent Hill.

Silent Hill (1999) was inspired by RE (1996) so I guess we've come full circle.

I once remember someone compared the Neomorph to a Silent Hill monster as if meant to be disparaging, but viewing this it's interesting in that both Alien (Director Ridley Scott specifically) and Ito Masahiro pull from Francis Bacon for their sexually infused nightmare imagery, and ended up each with pointed headed phallic primary antagonists.

That's what you have when you strip away the elegance and biomechanics of H.R Giger's contribution I think.

Undeniably but more so created to be a competitor to, redoing the entire plot of Silent Hill and Silent Hill 3's goes beyond being inspired by, if you ask me.
Giger's original chestburster design was directly inspired (if not ripped off, let's be honest) from Three Studies. But the neomorph has little in the way of Bacon left in it.
This all feels super off topic though, let's be honest.
I hear you on that first part but-
(https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/179/870/71b.gif)
I can't agree to disagree more about that last half of your statement honestly, it's as much Francis Bacon as any Silent Hill monster from 2 or 3, only this time the ethos' applied to the titular Alien itself instead.
I am good with franchises being inspired by similar sources and ending up with comparable results, but I do prefer when it's a merging of their own facets with that of whatever's being that particular inspiration, to get back on topic in that way I think Village follows the original Silent Hill plot overly closely but does not do much to subvert or make it their own thing- in my eyes anyway.
Mother Miranda's design's eerily close to that of the original Silent Hill's final boss, whilst her role's very much like Dahlia Gillespie, the actual villain of the story. I see that all over Village.
In fact:
Spoiler
The only reason you have to make all the characters idiots especially Chris "Ethan. No." Redfield's not to give up "the twist" and ultimately to make Ethan Winters journey even closer to that of Harry Mason, it's bizarre, I don't have anything against it but it does leave me asking why though.

This gave me a good laugh.
Too each their own.
To go after Ethan because his character is naive to the plot is kind of silly when just about ALL the characters have been written like they've never seen a horror movie before. That's just part of being a character in a horror game.
Also he didn't reattach his fingers because they were swallowed by a Lycan.
But he's done it before and, his voice acting's also, just awful.
To quote the article:
He sucks all of the tension out of Resident Evil Village like a moldy sponge.
If a person playing RE village was expecting horror game after EVERY encounter with an enemy ends up with items to craft more ammo or money to buy ammo then I don't know what to tell them. It is clearly meant to be an action game.
I don't think it's particularly good at either.
Apart from that notorious P.T. inspired section.
You know the one.

As long as you realize this is all subjective.
The plot of SH never really occurred to me while playing through Village, but I see where you're drawing the comparisons. I just think CAPCOM did a good job of making it their own and making this game feel like an RE game.
Heisenberg's abilities felt off for me as well. Kinda like Wesker's Neo abilities. I really loved the look and personality of Heisenberg but I think he was miss-used in this game.
But I also really liked Ethan this time around. It was a vast improvement from RE7 and I thought his voice actor delivered emotions just fine. My thoughts of Mia still haven't changed though, can't stand her. Ethan was too good for her and their chemistry just seems off because of it.

If you're going to take random articles/reviews into consideration, then you should consider the high ratings it holds. Enough people seem to like it for what it is.
We can agree on Heisenberg being misused then.
As for the player character I think this marks one of the times I might prefer complete silence, when you take a mostly quiet one and suddenly give them much more of a voice in the sequel(s) you hope to get Isaac Clarke, Ethan Winters not so much honestly.
As for the article I said it gave me a good laugh, it's not a breakdown of the entirety of the experience, just a criticism of the protagonist.
https://youtu.be/ed0klLmbiIg
This offers a completely opposite perspective from someone I like, I just can't bring myself to agree with them though, mostly I just think it's overrated because of the franchise and a massive fall in quality from the prior entry.
To me it feels like RE7 and RE8 want to get away from the virus inspired bioweapons and monsters and focus on the more supernatural element of horror but because of their past with the franchise they are unable to do a complete disconnect. It's kind of the same feeling I had for RE4. Like it wanted to be its own game but the developers thought it might not sell without the RE tag involved, just because of the different tone and feel it had.
Heisenberg besides his talking, reminded me more of a FEAR villain.
Funny enough you say that considering the original RE4 ideas.
Considering the first Resident Evil was supposed to be a remake of Sweet Home (which had actual supernatural activity and creatures), and a first person perspective, ironically RE8 might actually be the closest the franchise has ever been to its original goal.
I remember them talking about RE4 in the early going was straight up going to be supernatural horror, but changed it to be attached to the RE franchise.
RE the name sells though, I quite liked The Evil Within and TEW2 especially but I feel that even though it "feels" similar to RE (and had one of its creators) that it would've done better if it was a subset of RE. So I can see why Capcom is hesitant to detach their horror games from the brand.
I definitely felt in RE7 main campaign that they were trying to move away from all the Umbrella stuff. Wasn't till the very end that they even mentioned it. It was so late in the game that I often wondered if somebody tried to force it on the creators to tie it back in with all the earlier franchise.
Kind of feels like they want to have the story move forward and go after the connections, but all the DLC and everything keeps trying to tie it back into the same old Umbrella/BSAA formula.
I think the concept behind that early version of RE4 was Leon was infected with an Umbrella virus that made him trip out and hallucinate the supernatural stuff. But there was something like 3 or 4 scrapped versions of that game, and I could be mixing a couple of them up.
It used to be a lot like what this ended up being.
I really enjoyed discovering Davids's lab from covenant by the end of this game.

I always liked Ethan. He was like a Goku character or Superman character. Flat arc but likeable just because he was a good dude trying to help his family.
The trailer for RE4's remake just dropped. Looks like it's set for March 2023
I think it looks pretty damn good. It's obviously not a necessary remake, at least by way of graphics, but I'm hyped to see it receive the more grounded and serious treatment that the recent installments and remakes have had. I don't think they'll change too much but I hope the changes that are made start to make the series feel more cohesive.
Love the music choice for the trailer!
I'm surprisingly excited for it. Knew it was coming, wanted a Code Veronica remake more, but having seen the trailer... Yeah, I'm kinda hyped. Especially for the VR content.
Quite looking forward to this one. Shortcomings and all I really enjoyed the RE2 and RE3 remakes. This seems to have an even darker tone than the original RE4, similar to some of the earlier prototypes for the game. I'll be curious about the alterations to the story.
I really hoped Code Veronica is next, because It's one of the best and sends off Zombies in style. But I also love RE:4 as much as other guy so I'm happy.
This plus the Dead Space Remake, The Calisto Protocol and the rumoured Last Of Us Remake, gonna be a pretty cool time for survival horror fans.
I was hoping for that Code Veronica remake as well. It's such an important piece of the story for Claire, Chris, and Wesker.
Not to mention they already have the perfect actress for Claire picked out.
Remaking RE4 first was a clear cash grab move on their part but hopefully Capcom will give CV the same treatment soon after.
Looks great but its weird for me hear Leon without the RE4 actor voicing him.

Yep, the actress for Claire is nothing short of spectacular!
I never beat code veronica. It is the only RE that I played that I never have beaten.
My main issue with RE4 is that it never felt like RE to me. It was a fun game, but it was like the Alien Res of the RE series. It didn't have the same vibe. It was more like an action horror game. An Indiana Jones and the temple of doom, or chronicles of riddick.
It wasn't the fact that it became an action game that bothered me, it just didn't feel like the same universe. Like they took Leon and dropped him into DMC or something.

Considering DMC was originally RE4, that kinda makes sense.

It took me awhile, but eventually I reset my expectations and don't have the same feeling I did initially.

I wonder how many versions of this game there are.
I finished the Nintendo Wii version when it was once considered superior.
There was also a god-awful first PC version.
Gamecube
PS2
PC
PC Ultimate HD
PC (remake)
IPhone
Java
PS3
PS4
PS5 (remake)
Wii
Xbox One
Xbox Series (Remake)
Switch
I think that's it. Might be wrong.
I think the Yahtzee joke about RE4 is that it's been ported to every platform under the sun and at least one home appliance.
I played the Wii version (although I've always been a PC gamer) because somebody accused it of being the best game ever made. I wasn't disappointed.

"I'll see myself out." Lol
The hype is hitting hard.
I originally wanted to replay the original RE4 but those tank controls are off putting. So currently revisiting REmake 2 and maybe REmake 3 before this comes out.
Played the Chainsaw Demo last night. Don't know how I didn't realize sooner that they had even released a demo, but it was pretty friggin great. Very atmospheric with some tense moments.
Spoiler
I was wondering if the dog stuck in the bear trap would make an appearance... and I got my answer. :'(
My pre-order of the steelbook arrives later today
It is a pretty extensive remake, and fairly loyal to the OG game so far. I think it is the best out of the RE remakes so far, minus the OG remake of the first game, just because I haven't played that one all the way through. It is certainly better than RE3 remake, and I'd argue that even though RE2 is the best out of the new remakes being "scary" or atmospheric, the sheer amount of content they left out of the scenario b campaign was always a major turnoff for me so this remake feels much meatier than either of the other two, and maybe both of them combined. It also strikes a better balance of seriousness and cheese than the OG RE4, which used to make me dislike it (in the same way I disliked ARes). Just felt to far removed from the rest of the series.
I'm on chapter 12, and I believe there is 16, so hopefully the playthrough continues on a positive note.
Rule34 is going to have a field day with the new Ashley Graham just like they did with the new Jill Valentine.
I just got through the cabin siege. That was intense.
Finished the game. Had a blast. A true celebration of RE4! I can't wait for mercenaries mode.
Capcom is on such a roll nowadays!
The Big Cheese caused me 18 deaths.
The updated Regeneradors, are you fkn kidding me?!
They didn't bother me. So far the things that have caused me the most game over was Ramon (because I didn't realize you could just shoot him until I finally beat him, I just shot him twice in his main body unexposed part and he died finally, I thought you had to wait for his mouth to open and shoot him enough to fall to the ground and knife him) and anytime you have to separate from Ashley and she's alone to get kidnapped or attacked on your return. I think Mendez got me about five times. I could never hit the explosive barrels the first couple of times I faced him.
There was a couple of gauntlet parts where there is just crazy numbers of dudes that got me a couple of times as well. But so far Ramon is the number one dude.
I've still got Krauser rematch and Saddler to go. I first tried everybody else but Ramon and Mendez so far. Even Verdugo, even though I literally had NOTHING left after that fight. I had two grenades left and threw them behind him and the the second one finally killed him. I had zero ammunition, and very little health, so that one was just luck.
I immediately skipped Ramon with the RPG because I think that's the most fitting for that little shit
This game is a straight up upgrade over the original and overall the best RE game so far
Water Hall sucks. It sucks.
Fun. But sucky fun.
I still think RE2 is the best RE game, and RE3 was the funnest to play because it balanced out action and horror. Nemesis was better in that game than MR. X and Nemesis were in the remakes because he wasn't around all the time like Remake Mr X, and he didn't morph as quickly as he did in the REmake of the third game so you had the base him longer, which was more interesting.
RE2 OG gets it for sheer content. It basically had a JRPG level of content because each campaign was different and there were four of them. If you chose Claire A, the doc is after you and sherry, and in the second scenario MR X is after Leon. If you play it with Leon first then Birkin is after Leon and MR X is after Claire. It also came with TOFU and the 4th Survivor already. The overall campaigns have different scenes for different characters and different deaths by different things so even though the overall story is somewhat the same it didn't feel like the cheap scenario b in the RE2 remake.
Of the modern remakes RE4 IS the best though.
Of the modern games, RE7 is the best imo, just because outside of the boss fights, it felt much more like the OG games.
The creators of RE have somewhat fallen into the cultist, abandoned structures, deprived people motif the last few games. All outside of RE6 have kind of felt the same in the way they were presented. That is why I hope Code Veronica is next if they decide to do it, over RE5. Otherwise between the remakes and the actual games you have 5 out of the last 8 games that have kind of the same "feel" to them. RE4, RE5, RE7, RE8, and RE4 Remake. Only RE6, RE2 and RE3 remakes feel different, and RE6 had parts of its campaign in the same realm as the above.
I disagree, I don't think REmakes and RE7 and 8 feel the same at all, all of them feel different to play and have their own unique twists and mechanics, with REmake3 being the weakest, and I very much think REmake2 beats every other RE game aside from REmake4
RE7 and RE8 don't play the same for certain. And I appreciate RE7's attempt to return to something resembling horror. As I said, it is my favorite out of ALL of the new games. But they (re4, re5, aspects of re6, re7, re8, and REmake of 4) very much ALL have that abandoned society, cult like behavior baddies, that are isolated from normal society. The gameplay mechanics might be slightly different in some regards, but the setup and feel of the environments is the same.
RE2 OG to me will always be the APEX of the series. It would take something with an equal amount of content to overtake it, and you just won't get that in todays 3rd person games. Even RE4 remake with its substantial campaign don't compare to the entire campaign scenarios of OG RE2. Its been awhile since I played it all the way through, but the last time I completed all four scenarios it was something like 40 hours, and that was knowing where to go and what to do. I completed all the side missions in RE4 remake and I think it took me about 18 on the first playthrough and that is going at a somewhat leisurely pace and taking in the game and its environments.
Also take into consideration that I have been with the franchise since its creation. RE2 was the first game I bought as it was released in the series, but after beating it I went back and got the OG RE within a couple of days. So I remember what it was like to play these games fresh, before the market became saturated with knockoffs.
My list:
RE2
RE7 So high because it felt like survival horror and I actually got tense playing in certain spots.
RE3 There are several that are probably rated higher, but this was the funnest of the og games to play including the next gen CV. It was one of those games that came out at the end of a consoles life and should've probably been developed as a next gen title, because the action was so much better than previous titles and Nemesis was ahead of its time.
RE CV
RE4 Remake: The best, fully realized remake so far (that I have played).
RE1
RE2 Remake. The one full scenario is SUPERIOR to any in the og RE2, but the utter lack of a full scenario for both characters kills it imo. It would've been better without the half assed attempt at a scenario b. That is the only reason it isn't higher, is they just phoned that second scenario in and the original had four full campaigns. So that was a huge disappointment for what could have been the BEST RE.
RE5
RE8
RE4
Forgot RE6. It is an inferior game, but I played it on deployment when there was literally NOTHING else to do. We were a security detail in the middle of the ethiopian desert, and our off time was very boring because we had no internet. My mom mailed me this game and we played it for several weeks to pass the time. I feel that it was definitely a more enjoyable time with best bros than it would've been without.
RE3 Remake Only saving grace is hot Jill.
All the rail shooters and other spinoffs, some of which I haven't played.
I have the REmake of 1, which by many people is considered the apex, but the console to play it is inop so I can never finish it and I don't really buy games twice. So it is just sitting in stasis.
The OG re4 is a good game, I just hate it as a RE. It was originally going to be developed as something else, then a supernatural RE4, and then finished with what we got. So I think it gameplay being so different makes sense in that regard, I just have never liked it as an RE. It kinda stands out like ARes does in the Alien franchise to me. Too tonally different from the rest.
As an RE 6.5/10 (I actually like Separate Ways better than the main campaign) as a standalone and not judging it against the rest of the franchise.........8/10.
RE4 gameplay wise was the best of the pre RE6 games, but the story in it just kinda... happens, it doesn't really make much sense, many things in that game just happen out of nowhere, all of the issues have been fixed by REmake4 tho
My personal ranking is
REmake4
REmake2
RE7
RE5
OG RE4(only going by gameplay)
REmaster1/RE1
RE2
RE8(Chris being an assholes makes the story so unsatisfying to play because it makes it all feel so stupid)
REmake3
RE6(If I ignore the Leon and Ada campaigns I could probs rank it higher)
I haven't played any of the other REs with the exception of REverse which I won't count, as for REmake3, I'd say the only good thing aside from updated Jill (and her dressing properly) is updated Carlos, he is easily the best part of the game, also having the best sections too
The one thing I disliked most about the RE3 remake was the disservice they did to the UBCS. Who were actually good guys contracted by Umbrella to do good things, with bad guys in key positions. It eliminated the watchdog storyline and just made it much less interesting than it was originally. The UBCS were kind of like the STARs team, in that they were all spread out doing things and staying alive for much longer than most of them did in the RE3 remake.
Carlos did have the best parts of the Re3 remake.
In the OG RE3 Jill was just kind of caught in casual clothes when the whole thing went down, so while you think that somebody who was in Delta Force as an bomb disposal expert would pick up Delta habits and always wear functional clothes, it does still make some sense if she was going to go out and do something before all hell broke loose with people she knew. It has been awhile since I played it, and while she was always thinking of leaving, I don't believe Umbrella had a tail on her like they did the remake.
I also don't think RE3 remake Jill was anything more than a specialized officer. Her being a super competent former soldier in Delta is kind of absent.
The later storylines kind of don't make sense. If the presidents daughter was kidnapped you can believe that they wouldn't just send ONE guy over to find her. The only way RE4 makes sense at all is if Leon was in the area they took Ashley before she got there. Otherwise Delta or Devgru are going to be over there with numbers.
Hostage Rescue is one of the most complex missions in the military, that is why there are only a few organizations within who even practice it as a core mission.
I guess the reason they sent Leon is because they already suspected BOWs were involved and he had some experience with em, plus the fact that there might be some infighting and the President only trusted Leon (with reason, Krauser was a traitor after all)
As for REmake3, the story felt like a mess, it really seemed like Carlos was gonna get his own campaign because his sections feel really out of place despite being the best parts of the game, if REmake3 was actually 2 campaigns it would be way better, it was already kind of implied Carlos met Nemesis or some other form of Tyrant since he recognized it partly
I don't think at that point they knew Krauser was involved. Leon seems surprised that it was him.
They don't send one men wrecking balls in real life, but IRL wouldn't be as exciting either. Delta/Devgru shows up, blows open the doors to the church with breaching charges (or just blow a hole in the wall), exfils Ashley to a safe location, and then flies away on a rescue chopper the 24th STS CCT called in on an airfield secured by Army Rangers.
When they found out she was infected then a whole battalion from the 75th Ranger Regiment would come stampeding through until they got the cure. Since it was Europe the 173rd also would probably support. You just have to infinitely suspend your disbelief when federal government entities are involved in the RE small outbreak scenarios because the response would always be way bigger than what it is.
On the big outbreak scenarios it is different because the soldier to zombie/BOW quantity would be so different. Like tens of thousands to one.
Still that is as good of an in universe guesstimation as there is.
They didn't know Krauser was involved, yes, but they also only sent a person that is highlighted as someone that the president personally choosw and trusted, implying that there was a lack of trust of the other teams, the weather also got too bad for rescue teams to arrive as stated ingame and after that Leon lost contact with Hunnigan, and we don't really know what is happening around the world in the REverse at that moment
In the OG game supposedly because he is an agent and not a soldier the other available agents were trying to track down the leak.
But, as a guy that knows military, the dod would've made it there, one way or the other. The light rain that was falling wouldn't have stopped the guys that carry the tier 1 operators (and even if it was they would've just landed by boat), and there is no way that they would ALL be compromised.
At the very least the gunship that housed Mike would've been filled with other agents or operators and gotten to where they were as soon as Leon radioed that he had Ashley the first time.
But one man Army, a common FPS and third person, 80s action movie trope. Real life wouldn't have made for an as interesting, or challenging game. I'm not knocking it, it is just one of the things you can't unsee after being in. Even Aliens has its flaws, and James Cameron had his Marine Corps brother as an advisor. Getting all the technical and strategy stuff right isn't very interesting.
The U.S Government knew they had a leak, which is why Leon is initially sent in alone. No one was above suspicion.
No one knew Krauser was involved because he has thought to have been dead for two years.
It is actually Ada who leaks the Intel about Ashley and the village to the U.S. as she knew Leon would likely be the agent they dispatched.
In the OG game the evac helicopter gets shot down, which is why more agents are not sent in because the government realise the leak is still in play or at least monitoring their communications. For some reason they changed this in the remake to bad weather, which makes no sense really considering Leon has confirmed he has the President's daughter and the rain completely stops immediately after Hunnigan's call.
It's RE at the end of the day. I wouldnt take it too seriously.
Because it is RE you aren't supposed to take it seriously yes.
I'm just saying, there is a zero percent chance IRL they send one guy alone for a hostage rescue. Zero. Absolutely no chance.
Finally finished. Hardcore is truly hardcore.
I kinda feel like I cheated myself out of the final boss battle, though. After about 8 attempts I finally just sold enough stuff to buy a rocket launcher and one shot him.
I did make an alternate save, though, so if I want to torture myself and fail over and over again until I finally beat it properly, I can do that.
Absolutely epic game. Might start new game plus soon, though I'm still partway through a VR play through of Village.

Tbf we might get more out of this on Ada's dlc
Yes. They intergrated some scenes from the original Seperate Ways into the main campaign so I expect the new version to be comprehensively extended. Rumours suggest it is the biggest piece of DLC Capcom have ever done.
For me I just want some clarification on Krauser. They dropped the whole plot of Wesker wanting to revive Umbrella and went straight to the Uroboros plot. I can understand to a certain extent as that particular sub plot never goes anywhere in the lore, but it makes it seem as if remake Krauser is not affiliated with Wesker at all now. They have also seemingly retconned Operation Javier.
Capcom have confirmed now that these remakes are a separate continuity. When Remake 2 and 3 came out their stance was 'everything is canon', which never really worked.
From my understanding:
OG RE games up to 6 and the animated movies are part of the same continuity
REmakes are a different continuity
RE7 and 8 are canon to all continuities
Pretty much. Remake 4 cant go into OG 5 now with the various changes it makes.
I'm replaying on hardcore right now.
I still struggle the most on everything with ashley around. Running away from mendez took me like eight tries on hardcore because they kept running off with her.
It was like that on Grounded with TLOU. I suddenly started dying during essentially interactive cutscenes like pushing the truck. Something I never had any difficulty with in the other difficulties.
The whole RE5 is racist argument is coming back into the mainstream now, from people who cannot interpret the plot making the villagers insane. It isn't any kind of critique on Africa, or the people that live there. People are reaching for stuff nowadays.
You can argue it`s not racist, but it sure as hell is sexist lmao, not as bad as RE6 tho
As superb as Remake 4 is, it is quite saddening how a majority of the fanbase now seems obsessed with remakes. People want Remake 5, 6 and even a remake of remake 1 over an RE9 it seems.
I want a REmake of 5 and 6 too, 1 doesn't need one tho.
6 needs a completely reboot infact, make a new game but with the same title

Code Veronica is why I bought a Dreamcast in 1999, but I was never sure why it wasn't a numbered entry in the series. It probably should have been RE4.
Code Veronica is the most in need of a remake. There's good stuff in there, but a lot of bullshit, too.

Yeah, they need to give Steve a big overhaul. He was worse than Ashley, IMO.
Steve, the one hit kills, the insane backtracking on the island, the moths, that f**king crate blocking the door and cutting you off from the first item box...
In that case, remake RE0 too. It had some issues of its own.

Agreed, CV has a bit more relevance in terms of directly continuing Claire's search for Chris and then Wesker's
love hate for Chris.
RE0 is one of my least favorite games from the series. It just seemed too over the top in terms of telling the events that take place before the mansion incident.

Very true. I think even reimagining RE0 to better tell the story of Bravo team would be ideal. Enrico was a character I wish they had explored more of in the prequel.
This would also give them a chance to showcase the mansion in the new RE engine without rehashing the first game's story.
I feel like any further remakes should reference the continuation of the Redfield bloodline (https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/chrisposting). These characters aren't getting any younger. They've been fighting zombies since 1998.
I want more remakes, though not at the expense of new entries. Ideally, they'd continue what they've been doing for the last few years, alternating new entries and remakes.
I'm guessing the next release will be RE9, and then I'm hoping they'll remake Code Veronica. I wouldn't be averse to a re-REmake, but it would have to be a 1:1 retelling, without cutting things out, and ideally would have VR, because playing through the Spencer Mansion in VR would be amazing. RE0 I could take or leave. I don't think it's a particularly good game, but I'm not sure how a remake could fix it, unless they maybe added it as an extra campaign in an RE1 remake, and cut out the character switching system.
RE4 remake sold over three million units in its first two days. I can't imagine they'll stop doing what's working for so well for them.
Remake Dino Crisis already
I'm still intrigued with an RE9 title but Capcom is infuriating with how they've gone about handling the main storyline.
I wish they would stop making the games coincide with the year they come out because it is mucking up any way for them to properly tell the story of any of their iconic characters and bring some closure for them that's been long overdue.
As much as I can appreciate RE7 and RE8 for what they have brought to the table, they felt the most like spinoffs for me in terms of detouring away from the storylines that would have better suited the main number titles more.
I thought Revelations 2 had one of the most interesting stories that they could have followed up on and Capcom has completely neglected to address that game. And there were plenty of moments between both RE7 and RE8 where I thought they would start to introduce the events of Rev 2 and slowly introduced Alex Wesker into the main numbered titles, but no... It was a missed opportunity because she could have been a villain that lasts at least a few games and delivered some good blows to the storyline that the series is lacking.
And yes, remake Dino Crisis. ;D
I have never played RE7 or RE8. Not a fan of first-person games.

Same, I also bought a Dreamcast for its "exclusive" Resident Evil title - the reason it isn't a numbered entry is because, back then, like 'Biohazard: Last Escape' it was supposed to be a side story to wrap up characters - in this case, Claire's story. The only reason the former got the '3' added (as I recall) was because PlayStation had a 3-main title deal with capcom (that 'Survivor' wouldn't have covered) and they couldn't progress onto newer platforms until that had been seen through, so they added the 3 to title of Last Escape / Nemesis (at that point just a side story/ Gaiden for Jill) to get around that.

Initially, yes! 😂 But once Dreamcast died, I was pleased it was on PS2 for accessibility (albeit an inferior version).
I felt the same when Resident Evil 0 was cancelled for N64 - I was notoriously bad at saving as a kid (collected too many franchises and Alien merch soaked up majority of that) so after saving pocket money especially for it and buying every Nintendo magazine for any scrap of intel on the game, to see it scrapped for the GameCube version felt like a kick in the teeth 😂

It did 🤣
The remakes to me have been inferior to the OG games EXCEPT for the RE4 remake (and maybe the original remake can't confirm on that one). If future remakes get the same care as RE4 remake did, then I wouldn't mind playing updated versions. If it is another RE3 remake rush job money grab, then give me a new RE storyline.
Based Kimmy.
I personally think REmake2 is better than any of the og games, and REmake1 is more of a remaster than a remake
Remake 1 added tons of stuff, though.
Resident Evil Remake > Resident Evil
RE2 > RE2Make
RE3 > RE3Make
Resident Evil 4 Remake > RE4
But yeah I can see the argument that as purely individual experiences RE2 and RE3 Remakes are just more accessible and Resident Evil 4 Remake follows on from them and it is the best of them, especially if you have no patience for the old tank controls but both 2 and 3 Remakes removed so much one can hardly consider them the definitive versions.
A HD collection of the originals would be cool for this reason, but I get why that does not exist, officially anyway:
https://www.reshdp.com/re2/
https://www.reshdp.com/re3/
The OGs might have a bit more content, but it suffers alot in gameplay and in the storyline, as well as the characters themselves, some of the stuff simply wouldn't look good or make sense in the setting, like the giant spiders and crows, those could make sense in 1, but not in 2 and 3.
OG RE3 is better than REmake3 cuz even tho REmake3 has better gameplay and way better iterations of the characters (SPECIALLY CARLOS), it feels rushed even if you go in it blindly after playing REmake2, it feels more like a DLC for REmake2, specially with it's lack of extra everything. The pacing was weird, some gameplay sections came outta nowhere, Nemesis is hardly in the game as a pursuer and he was the main selling point.
