Because I'm a huge RE fanboy

I am excited for this. Over excited? Maybe. But hot damn. It's got everything from multiple character stories, to T-Virus, G-Virus, Las Plagas, and holy shit no wesker! And the fucking president?!?!? slkjsofhsofsufj

I've been a big fan of RE since my dad had bought Nemesis on the Playstation.

At the time, I was like 8 or 9 years old maybe, and I vividly remember seeing the opening cutscene and bursting into tears because of how freaky the zombies looked. I had nightmares for two weeks before playing the game. It was love.

I'm pretty sure Resident Evil is behind my inconditional love for zombies. That said, CAN'T WAIT for RE6!

Okay this already looks way better than RE5.

They just had the teaser poster leak and now a random reveal trailer.

Whatever, looks fantastic. Hopefully they downplay the co op in this one.

VuBawlsClock · January 19, 2012, 06:21:16 PM

I'm actually happy for random reveal trailer, not some big hyped up OMG E3 REVEAL bullshit. At least now in e3, they can maybe shed some light on the stuff instead of cluster fucking it to us day 1. If this makes any sense.
also, just the sight of zombies is making me very nipply

PossumClock · January 19, 2012, 08:23:39 PM

I am also nipply at the notion of all the viruses coming together in one game. Leon looks crazy and unkept, which is similar to the knot my pants have made. Also: is that Las Vegas? Looked like Tokyo or Hong Kong at first glace. I only watched it once.

Also also: very interesting that they released the trailer the same day that they released the 3DS demo for Revelations. A very RE day indeed.

I love how in every RE game the protagonist will always try to reason with the first zombie they see (no matter how many times they have fought zombies before) and almost get killed and then decide to just shoot everyone else they see in the game on sight.

It looks like they are trying to add in MW and BF elements which is fucking stupid.

I just want more castles and villages to explore like in RE4, not a rail shooter in 3rd person. And NO fucking partner gimmick shit I don't want to give my ammo and healing to a shitty AI who can't conserve it correctly.

BluezombieClock · January 19, 2012, 09:02:29 PM

Well I quite liked RE5's co-op initiative but I'll admit I've only ever played it with my brother; never alone with the AI.

That said, I never felt like playing the game without my brother, as it's the strong co-op aspect of the game that got us playing more often than necessary.

buttplug · January 19, 2012, 09:04:23 PM

What I liked most about RE4 was exploring every nook and cranny and it takes me forever to do this so it would be boring to try to do this in co-op with someone in RE5.

"It's Raccoon City all over again!"

Yes. Yes, please.

It looks like something I might enjoy, though I can't say i'll approve of Games for Windows - LIVE.

Not really MW or BF. From what I read a while back about what they were planning for this game, they are taking tips from Gears of War on its control scheme. By this they mean you can move while aiming, you're not just cemented to the floor, you can sprint, it seems like it has a new cover system, stuff like that. The enemy AI will be adjusted for this new control scheme; in RE4 and RE5 they would run up to you then slow down as they got close because you couldn't move while shooting. Now since you can move, they won't have to do the whole run>slow thing. I'm pretty sure they are doing this for Resident Evil Revelations for the 3DS as well.

As for the RE5 discussion going on here, it was really fun to play through with a friend. IF you don't have someone to play online co-op or at least split screen on the consoles, I wouldn't recommend it. It certainly did stray from the formula more than previous RE titles, it was clearly an action game with horror themes more than a survival horror game, but I still had fun with it.

VuBawlsClock · January 19, 2012, 11:18:44 PM

I play with my friend on RE5, funnest thing ever, just spamming COME ON. And dat fight with jill, im just spamming into the mic, AW YEAH TAKE IT JILL. She knocks me off and I get right back on top. were chucklin away, good times

the partner and the real time inventory system pissed me off in RE5. I don't care if real time inventory makes it realistic, thats not how RE is supposed to play.

Not to mention how unrealistic the idea of a chicken egg taking up the same amount of space as an assault rifle is. RE4 really did get it right on all counts besides the still shooting, and that was just a limitation of the gamecube.

I haven't played any other RE game besides 4, but I am very positive that mechanic has been present since the very first.

Well all the previous games were on the PS1 and that wasn't exactly a great console for shooters either.

...

Resident Evil 5 was on XBOX360, PlayStation 3, and PC; systems which a big chunk of their dedicated library are shooters. And it had the same mechanic.

I'm so pumped for this. RE4 is one of my all time favourite games, RE5 was good fun but more of an action game as sobe said. Shame it's not out til november though really aaargh

VuBawlsClock · April 10, 2012, 01:32:20 PM
