Resident Evil 6

The new captivate trailer is awesome! Anyone else looking forward to it?

Not particularly. It looks like it would be better off a movie than an actual game. Besides, the series is so far removed from what it used to be, that it's just not worth my time anymore.

They said they were going back to their roots with the latest installment, and I have yet to be shown that aspect.

So even if RE6 as a game is good, you'll ignore it?

I don't remember them saying that about RE6. Wasn't it about Revelations? Which by the way, was an amazing Resident Evil game.

LOL! Amazing? Have you still not learned to look based your bias to see the actual quality of a game?

Also, is it not OK for him to ignore RE6 even if it's good? Resident Evil isn't even close to the same series it was. If he had interest in the more methodical pacing of the older games, and perhaps the fact that they were...you know...survival horror games, but has no interest in the mediocre TPS those games have become, is that not allowed?

Um... Yeah, Revelations is the best 3DS game I've ever played. Call it something else and I'd still love the game. Please explain how I'm being bias.

Is that what I said? I simply asked him a question. Stop trying to put more meaning to what I said.

The Resident Evil remake for Gamecube was a-maz-ing.

There. That's my contribution.


I'll show myself out.

Yeah, it was really good. Only Resident Evil game I ever beat outside of 5.

I doubt it will be, because Resident Evil hasn't been Resident Evil in such a long time. I can play a mediocre third-person shooter anywhere. Why would I bother getting RE6, when it slaps the franchise in the dick?

And yes, REmake was f*cking unbelievable. The atmosphere was simply stunning.

Remake is still my favorite RE game. I love 4, hate 5. I loved having to do out of the way puzzles to get ammo (Getting shells from the lion statue). God, I hated the crimson heads though. Loved setting the bodies on fire. Looking back, it reminds me of salting and burning the bones in Supernatural.

I thought revelations was a great game too, the graphics were really well done, and it had its moments of pure survival horror. The raid mode was also pretty fun. I actually prefer Mercenaries because I love the balls out action, but I enjoyed it as a handheld bonus. Especially since I've already got Mercenaries 3D.

From what I heard, Leon's portions of the game are supposed to mimic the style of the old games. Chris's will be more fast paced, like RE5. And Wesker's kid is supposed to be more combat reliant.

Trailer looked really stupid.

So it looked like a Resident Evil game. Guess I'm in?

I really don't like the new character, he looks too generic in comparison to the rest of the characters. Hell, even Chris looks generic in his squad. His hair also sucks in comparison to how it was in 5, but at least they toned down his muscles. The chia pet on top of a refrigerator look Chris had in 5 was one of its many flaws.

Looks a lot more interesting than RE5, IMO. And the only part of RE5 that actually felt like the old RE was the sidestory Lost in Nightmares.
