Yeah, that second controller thing sucks, no doubt.....I have an extra old one though.
Bully is one of the few games I like that DOESN'T have a place to stick your extra shit, like for example, Resident Evil always has all these trunks around to put in your extra shit in, not just weapons, but everything else. (RE 4 only had the weapons case though).
Still, I play the Manhunt games, they don't have a weapons storage. What I always wished there was to have one, because you are confined to playing only the weapons available in each chapter.
Be nice in Bully to have storage spots in each of the 'Save' houses too.
You played RE?!?!
-
You didn't play RE5? I did. Depending how crazy you are about RE the 5th one was OK. It had some cool extra features. If you want those extra features make sure you get the Gold Edition. The original RE5 doesn't have them.
-
I was surprised Chuck played the RE games. It makes me all excited and stuff. I used to be crazy obsessed with the series.
I'm missing like 3 achievements from RE5. VS ones, because everyone you play with online is a retarded dick.
-
Sure I played Resident Evil. It's my third all-time favorite PS games. I actually played RE2 first. then RE1 & RE3. When Code Veronica came out, I always felt it should be 4.
With the actual RE4 came out, I felt it was too radical change from the series. I longed for the 'Old' Zombies we always had so much fun with, because they were, well...Funny. The new-style 'Infected' creatures didn't quite cut it for me, and I missed having the 'save trunks' for my stuff. But, RE4 was a good game, I probably played it through some 30 times. Still, I missed the old RE way of doing things.
I don't have a PS3 yet....I'm waiting for the price to plummet even farther. If a Manhunt 3 or Bully 2 would come out next week though, I would "Buy It At A High Price" in a New York Minute.
OH MY GOD. I have to reply to all of this.
Haha, remember the dog hallway in the first one? It scared the crap out of me. Literally. As for playing the second part, first, I know a lot of people who did that. I played RE1 at my babysitter's house. Her son was in high school, and he had just gotten to the part when the hunters were released, so we were watching him play. I asked to play, and he said he was almost done and I could borrow it that night.
Well ... my brother and I were fighting over who was going to play it. I played first, then FREAKED out in the dog hallway. I paused the game, threw the controller and told my brother he could play. He said he wasn't touching it. I told him to shut off the PlayStation. He said he wasn't touching it. Eventually, we shut it off. I gave back the game and didn't play it. For a while, I dreamed of like a black space with doors opening and I couldn't figure out why.
THEN, RE2 came out. Played that one at my babysitter's house. Her son showed me how to get to the police station, then restarted and made me play. XD For whatever reason, I was hooked. He'd let me play it when he went out and I wound up beating Claire's disc. Then he let me borrow RE1 again, beat that one and that was the end of it for me.
I don't know which I love more, RE2 or Code Veronica. I still need Code Veronica and my GameCube collection is complete. But I see it everywhere for like $40+ and we're talking about used copies. :/
Now, I liked RE4 .... but like you said, it was a real stark difference. I miss the zombies. Same for RE5. The newer gamepley really isn't bad or anything, but they changed quite a bit. The Lost in Nightmares DLC they released sort of revisited the old Resident Evil, but it wasn't quite what I expected when Capcom said they were returning to the 'roots' for the DLC. I won't spoil it, but meh.
Resident Evil 5 : Lost in Nightmares Gameplay (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ro_9UnBjAE4#ws)
Anndddd I'm actually going to split this thread for us.
-
I became addicted to RE. I didn't miss any of the major games. RE1,2,3,4,5, Code Veronica X, Outbreak 1&2, Survivor. I'm pretty confident another RE will be following RE5 in the future. This is one of the most challenging series I've played yet. I really like the extra features that come with most of the RE games as well. I WILL NOT MISS any RE games.
-
Happy memories all....I first saw the Police Station of RE2 when someone else was playing, and the music so capivated me, I just sat there and watched the play for the longest time. Finally, I said...."Gimmie that Controller', and I was off to the races.
It took me FOREVER to beat the queen boss at the end of Code Veronica....Then that 8 minute cutscene at the end, with the promise of more to come.....If I do break down soon and get a PS3, RE5 will be first on the list to play.
-
Oh man, I had the mansion in the first one memorized. And I don't care what anyone says. I fuckin' loved Alexia.
I own 1, Director's Cut, 2, 3 on the PlayStation.
Then I have Outbreak files 1 and 2, plus Code Veronica X and RE4 on the PS2.
I have 0, REmake, 2, 3 and 4 on the GameCube. I'm missing Code Veronica X on that one.
Then I have Umbrella Chronicles on the Wii, and part 5 on the PS3 and Xbox.
I've played Survivor (which was pretty awful), Gun Survivor (which is decent), and Dead Aim, which was alright.
Love the series, but not too fond of the routes they've taken starting with 4. I miss the real zombies. :(
-
Happy memories all....I first saw the Police Station of RE2 when someone else was playing, and the music so capivated me, I just sat there and watched the play for the longest time.
I guess I'm not the only one who was in some way attracted to the music of the RE2 police station. There was just something about it. There are certain musics that fit to games perfectly, and that was one of them.
-
Remember the sound when you would select something in the item menu?
That's my text message alert. The 'cancel select' sound is my picture messages. :)
-
Everything Chrissy listed for PS1 & PS2 I have also.
Yeah, Survivor sucked. I didn't even keep that one.
I always loved that music....There was another Game that had cool music (in certian areas), and that was Martian Gothic - Unification.
-
Survivor really did suck. I liked the 3rd one and 2nd one. You almost consider it the history of RE with what happened in Racoon City. I would love it if RE 2&3 were revised for PS3 graphics.
-
A little irritating was how Nemesis kept saying "STARS" every time you finally put him down in RE3.....But the cutscenes were cool, especially the one in front of the Police Station.
When I got to the Clock-Tower, and the game appeared to be over, I thought, "Shit...Already ?" But when it wasn't, I was like, "Allright !!"
-
RE games NEVER tend to be short. Even the sucky ones. They were all long. One of my biggest game dreams is to have the game so long I die playing it. That shows the effort that was put into the making of these games. RE will always be at the top of my list with any factors you can apply to a game when determining quality. They're good all around. Not many more games are like that.
-
This is my happy place.
-
Sit in a room with nothing but my tv, system, and RE running. Dark rooms tend to make you feel the story and horror of this game much deeper. And there can't be RE without puzzles! RE 5 had a few puzzles. Not that hard though. But I still like the origins of Racoon City.
RE is awesome! RE is awesome! RE is awesome! RE is awesome! RE is awesome! RE is awesome!
-
They're releasing a deck building game for it. I want it.
-
Never heard. Has just caught my attention. ;D
-
Best music of RE1 was the Picture room in the mansion, that started playing after the last picture dropped.
Another tune I liked was the one that played over the end credits of RE3, after Racoon City got nuked.
Wish there was a CD or something of all the neat RE music.
-
I'm all the way with RE2 police station. That was a "unique" tune. I'm going to search my music site for these tunes, I feel doubtful though.
-
The only place I've ever been able to find it is on the games themselves. I wonder if there is a way to record the audio onto a CD directly without the video. My present set-up, I can record both through an old VHS onto tape. I don't have a CD recorder, but if it were possible, I would look into getting one just to do that.
-
I would say you have more of a chance from the web than you do recording. The web is vast with many sources known and unknown. That's going to be my way of digging.
-
I got it fellas. The music for the front of the police station and the basement of the police station. I'm trying to post them here if I can just get the fuckin' MP3 file into the post. Its all on my computer in the administator's music and Windows Media Player. The issue is that there's no URL to copy straight from the computer.
-
Haha, just look up the soundtracks on youtube OR download them via torrents. :P
I have all the soundtracks, even for part 5.
-
I have a music site, Bearshare.
I'm looking into getting my RE2 and RE3 again. Those were two really cool games for PS1. The only other game I see matching is the first Metal Gear Solid. The entire game was on two discs. Awesome game. I got that now. I'm focusing back towards the old PS1 RE games.
-
Another cool thing about those was that you could play as both a male and female character. That would be a great addition to Bully.
-
I wouldn't want to play as a girl on Bully. Resident Evil was uniqe. You had to survive, whether you were a man or woman. RE presents a real challenge. I'm going to find some sites where they sell RE games. I'm sure you're aware, its quite difficult to find old games.
-
I think it would be a hoot to play as a girl in Bully. It would have to be set up opposite, with a lot of girls and less boys....Female Prefects....A woman Headmaster...And the missions, could be girl-oriented, the ultimate goal to be queen bitch of the school.
It would be a blast....
-
Not my style man. RE was one of the few games I agreed with it though. I don't really like playing as a girl. RE was different for some reason. Just the whole environment and story made me look at playing as a girl from another perspective.
-
So....Are you saying that if Bully 2 came out that way, with a girl option, you wouldn't even be tempted to try ?
-
I would try it. If it was ONLY girl, I would not want it. I want Jimmy in there. Now that you mention it, maybe they could include some girl from Jimmy's family who so suddenly arrives at Bullworth....
-
Yeah, like a slutty sister or something.
-
Now that would be interesting....
-
I don't think my brother would be happy if I were featured in Bully.
-
Why? Is he Jimmy Hopkins or are you a slutty sister? :p
-
The Queen would be a awesome character in Bully 2.....
-
:P
-
I really like playing a character like Jill in RE3....And the cutscenes at the start was great. The dumbass who closed himself in the trailer was funny as hell.
-
I love Jill. =)
-
Leon is my favorite, and where the hell is Barry? He should be the playable character in the next game.
-
Yeah, you would think......
"What happened to Jill and Barry ?".......
-
Play RE5. And Barry's in RE5 Mercs. I love him. He's so obnoxious. "I HAVE THIS!"
-
Well Jill is actually in the story in RE5. There's a lot of people I would like to know what happened to them Sherry Berkin? What ever came of her I would really like to know.
-
And that whiny bitch, Steve.
-
And Steve as well, it really leaves the series open to a lot more games.
-
And plotholes.
-
Good to see some RE fans here.
-
I used to be a hardcore RE fan. Then the series kind of just took a downturn. :/
-
Really? The only one I thought that was kind of bad was RE5. I know one thing they need to bring back the horror.
-
I miss the cool Zombies of RE 1, 2 3, and CV.....
-
I think that's why I'm so obsessed with Nazi Zombies and Undead Nightmare. Zombieesssss.
-
I think I just love how stupid they are. And how so predictable they are.
-
But they're fun! And they can get crazy in Nazi Zombies.
-
Shi No Numa, Nazi Zombie, level 331-336 solo strategy! No Glitches! Solo Strategy! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Trt5WjzHPBw#)
-
Left 4 Dead, crazy fast zombies to can get really crazy.
-
DUDE, L4D2 is even harder. I swear, Easy mode is like Normal on the first. The second is crazy.
-
Yea L4D can get real crazy, especially when one of the special infected gets involved like a tank. Those things are hard to take down.
-
I got the achievement for killing a tank with melee weapons.
-
Nice, what about a witch, ever been trying to sneak past one. Only to get ambushed by a boomer and Hunter, kind of sucks the Witch is so strong.
-
Have those, too. :P Add me on Xbox! DasSavva.
-
Alright I added you Agent Hotstuff :P
-
LOL. Did you read my profile yet?
-
Yes, and what's your point? Doesn't look unusual to me :p
-
Haha, not on here. Xbox Live.
-
Ah-So!
-
On how it says you pretend to be a girl?
-
lol yes. I get so many questions. It's hilarious. They demand voice messages from me.
-
Stalkers perhaps?
-
Nah. They either check my profile from the forums or from lobbies.
-
I still say stalkers.
-
Lol man it's crazy at some things people say to girls on there. Play MW2 with a girl talking in the lobby boys go crazy.
-
Eh, maybe. I seem to be a rare commodity in the gaming community.
-
LOL I KNOW!
-
Someone on another forum posted a diagram of "Dante's Internet" once. One of the rings consisted of "boys that go crazy for girls on the internet".
-
Nice!
-
Boys defiantly go crazy it's quite funny though to see it.
-
I fuck with some of them. I tell them I'm a 12 year old boy.
-
It just goes to show you who the desperate creeps are. ^and that's funny. I bet all the perverts come out of the woodwork with that little white lie.
-
Haha, they usually make fun of me and get pissed off when I laugh.
-
Who, the perverts? They probably get pissed 'cause you just ruined their perfect image to jerk off to. If they're into little boys, the last thing they want to picture is a chick.
-
Such a nasty world were in.
-
Oh no, I meant the people in the lobbies.
But ew, one guy was bugging me and telling me he needed a roommate. He kept asking how old I was and if I was over 16.
-
lol, he wasn't making any effort to come across as anything but a creep.
-
Haha, my ex friend was yelling at him.
And another time, haha, a friend and I were in a public Nazi Zombies match. My friend said something like, "Chrissy, let's go blah blah blah" and some guy started bugging. "CHRISSY?! WHO'S CHRISSY?!" I said my friend's gamertag and told him that was Chrissy.
-
Most of these guys are desperate buffoons who've never interacted with a girl.

Resident Evil 6 Trailer............
Resident Evil 6 reveal trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sS_bGpe9qE8&feature=g-logo&context=G2907db7FOAAAAAAAAAA#ws)
Out November 12......
-
I don't know how I feel
-
Looks like Leon still has that ridiculous emo haircut. :laugh:
But, maybe by now he's learned how to walk and shoot at the same time. We can only hope. It looks like a lot of the more horrifying elements that characterized the earlier games are more prevalent here, at least, more so then in 5 where they where a bit lacking. I remember hearing right around the same time the fifth game came out from the game's creator that Resident Evil 6 is going to be a full reboot of the franchise, is that what's going on here? Seem to me it's just another entry.
-
This game is honestly going to make or break the series for me.
If it's good, then it's good. If it's shit, then I'll never buy anything from Capcom again.
Also, in response to Corpse - I read some time back after the release of 5 that they claimed a reboot was necessary, because all the current character's story lines are done, and they had new characters in the works. I honestly don't know what to make of Chris and Leon being in this one if the initial claim stated otherwise.
As for Blondie, think she's Ashley or Sherry? Or someone entirely new?
Oh, and my biggest gripe is that they always pair Leon with some random chick and always give it romantic undertones. Just fuckin' bring Claire back already.
-

If it's good, then it's good. If it's shit, then I'll never buy anything from Capcom again.
I've never understood why people say things like that. It's not like anything they do with this game is gonna make the previous or future games any worse.
Just fuckin' bring Claire back already.
This. A million times this.
Another thing, get rid of Leon's douche bag haircut.
-
Because I'm sick of them shitting on the series. Code Veronica was the last good game in the series. I dont really count the Outbreaks, because they weren't canon. Gaiden was stupid. While RE4 was good, it deviated way too much from what made RE, well, RE. I wont lie, it looks promising, but if it's just shit with glitter thrown on it, then to hell with it. I'm not going to keep supporting Capcom with money that I work for and not be satisfied with the end result. Also, this game will influence future storylines, I don't know why you said it wouldn't. Look how four inspired the trash that was five. Wesker children? Really?
The original influenced the second and third, the second influenced CV, so it's a bit silly to say otherwise.
-
I'm just saying, condemning the entire future of the franchise for only a couple of games in the series seems a little silly, especially if you enjoy the first couple so much. But that's just me. I understand that your not willing to put down hard earned money on something your only gonna be disappointed with in the end, especially if your that interested in the franchise. I wouldn't want to either, but I would at least wait to see what the future brings before I wrote it off completely.
I'm just of the opinion that no matter what happens beyond this point, your always going to have the original games you like so much. Nothing can take that away from you and no game, no matter how atrocious it turns out to be, will effect them. It may in fact give you even more respect for the earlier games, or at least make you appreciate them for being in the series during it's prime and when it was at it's best.
-
To me, it's kind of like they're willing to ruin the series, why should I care anymore? Yeah, I enjoyed it at one point, but when it loses it's luster, then it becomes moot at that point and I just move on.
Besides, if things go according to how I want it, I honestly don't know how much I'll be able to game anymore.
-
Another thing, get rid of Leon's douche bag haircut.
Who cares about a haircut? :/
-
It's just one of many things that mad Resident Evil 4 a piece of shit.
-
A haircut?.. Made a game shit? Or is one of the reasons? xD
-
Ehhh.....While I liked RE 4 Ok, It was almost like playing some other series game. Gone were our lovable stupid zombies, to be replaced with...Infected stupid foreign village people in some backwards country that may have been Eastern European ?
I'm along with Chrissy on this one. This RE 6 had best return to the series roots, or what's the point ?
-
I've heard this new game brings back the old feel of the series. Hopefully it does, and I'd love to see it.
Only complaint I have with the old games is the controls. Fuck using 3D controls. Walking like a tank was cool back then, but is not needed anymore. Even RE4 & 5 use it just in a different way.
-
Yeah, but that kind of movement was sort of special in it's own way, wasn't it ? Part of what made RE, well, RE. I think they should return to that way of moving the RE characters around. Very nostalgic, I would feel.
-
I will be getting Resident Evil Mercenaries for the 3DS, because their Mercenaries game is definitely innovative - to me, at least. I love trudging around the map and just destroying shit.
-
Not really Chuck, at least I don't feel that way. A lot of games back in the day used the same thing. Silent Hill being on in the pack of games that did.
-
So I've actually sat down and watched Operation Raccoon City trailers and gameplay. I want it, but I don't want to pay for it.
-
Well...Silent Hill had it's own kind of 'Slowness'.....And jeepers christo, just how wide and long are those damn streets, anyway ? Run two blocks and about have a heart attack, and it takes 10 minutes to do it (I exaggerate a bit there...It only took 5 minutes, but still)......
-
I think we all can agree to an extent that both Resident Evil and Silent Hill were great in their own ways back in the day. But now at least in my opinion both series have turned to shit. They are fun, but more action than anything.
No horror at all in my opinion and defiantly not survival.
-
^ I've been seeing the same things. I've always been into the RE series. Ever since the 4th game though the series has gone really far into the action direction and continued that way with the 5th game.
If they want this series to get back on the right path they need to look at the old game such as RE 2 and RE 3. They really had the "spook factor" and horror to them. That was all lost and the games are now nothing more than shooting and action/adventure.
-
Anyone see the RE6 debut trailer yet? This is supposed to be coming on the second of October. It seems they might have fixed the problem with too much action....
Resident Evil 6 debut trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Op2AOVH-9HE#ws)
-
I've lost interest in the series.
-
I've kind of lost interest myself due to the direction they took with the action thing, but I want to try and hold onto it and give it at least one more chance.
I've been playing this series for years now, ever since I was a kid. RE6 is the last chance I'm giving. If this game doesn't work out for me, I'm done with RE.
-
Another RE6 trailer......

Is this Ashley I see in this RE 6 trailer ? (2:06 and after).
Resident Evil 6-Official Trailer 2012 HD 1080p (Subtitulado al español) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXxEXiFVKko&feature=relmfu#ws)
-
Yeah. Ashley from RE2 is making a return.
-
No, I meant Ashley from RE 4, the President's Daughter. Sounds just like her.
-
Nope. It's Ashley from RE2.
-
No, I meant Ashley from RE 4, the President's Daughter. Sounds just like her.
I thought that, too. But no, its Sherry Birkin (William Birkin's daughter).
-
Yup. She's having a part in this game.
-
Ashley is only in RE4, she's the President's daughter. Sherry Birkin was in RE2, she's William Birkin's daughter. That's Sherry in the trailer, and the guy she's with is her partner, and that's Albert Wesker's son, whom I'm assuming Wesker didn't know about based on what he says in one of the trailers.
-
Albert never had much to do with his son, Jake Muller. Jake has some things from Wesker though. He has a special blood and is great in hand-to-hand.
-
Uh, Wekser had nothing to do with him. I don't think Wesker even knew about him. Based on the trailers, Jake finds out about Wesker being his father sometime in RE6.
-
Albert never had much to do with his son, Jake Muller.
Wesker was never involved in Jake's life. That's kind of what I meant.
-
All I hope is that Wesker is finally gone. :rolleyes:
-
I would hate to see Wesker come back AGAIN. He has to die at some point.
-
^ Especially considering the way RE5 ended.
-
It would just be pathetic to see him return after that. I'm getting tired of seeing him.
-
That's why I liked RE4; new villains that had nothing to do with Umbrella and Wesker had a very small part. Also I thought that Krauser was awesome.
-
If only Resident Evil 4 was even remotely similar to the beta...I would've loved every bit of it. But since 4, the series lost its flavor to me.
-
5 was just 4 on a bigger scale. 6 will be the last chance of this series.
-

What was the beta like? I personally enjoyed 4. I loved the design of the village and the castle, Krauser (as I mentioned), the monks chanting, and the Regenerators scared the shit out of me. Ashley was annoying and I agree that there was too much action, not enough horror. But I still liked it. 5 was where the series lost me.
-
The beta turned into Devil May Cry. The original 4 was more eerie and supernatural.
Resident Evil 3.5 (All Footage) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NLUzU8Z_NI&feature=related#)
There was a black 'mist' and I think it was 'alive' and Leon was infected.
-
^ Thanks! :)
-
Yer welcome.
-
4 and 5 were leaning really far into the action direction. Now some people liked that. A lot complained though. I was upset. Horror, which has always played a significant role in this series, was missing from both 4 and 5. Horror is what makes these games great.
I see nothing wrong with action being introduced to this series, but horror needs to stay. Supposedly this issue will be fixed in 6. I'm giving the series a last chance, 6 being that chance. I'm getting the game.
I've always been loyal to this series. I've played and loved this series for years. Since I was a kid. It's obvious that 4 and 5 were the turning point of the series. For some it was a good one and some a bad one. Me it was bad.
As a loyal fan, I feel partially obligated to go on, but if it keeps going in the same direction, there needs to be a point where things end. I will give it one more chance. 6 better satisfy me.
-
I still like 4 but after watching the beta footage I have to agree with how much better it could have been. What are the monkeys running Capcom thinking? Why did they cut the hook man? :confused:
-
4 and 5 sucked. 6 better be good or this series is going to finally reach its end.

There was a black 'mist' and I think it was 'alive' and Leon was infected.
That's the video I was talking about...I mean, it actually looks scary! Why this was scrapped is beyond me.
-
Around the 4th game action was only being introduced. Horror and scares have always been around. This was like an experiment of bringing new things into the series. That experiment just went wrong. I think Capcom might have a better understanding now of what needs to be done.
They need to balance out the use of both action and horror in order to satisfy everyone. Hopefully 6 will bring this. Something they seem to have done is look back on old games like RE 3. They took some of the ideas from those games and brought them to 6. I feel that there will be some hope for this game.
Even if this game doesn't satisfy me and others looking for similar things, there will always be people who like the game, so there actually isn't an "end" to this series. Fans will always be around no matter what.
Looking back on RE games I've played, I think the Outbreak games were amazing.

Yeah, it had a fantastic creep factor! I don't know how it turned into DMC, because that game isn't creepy. At least not to me. I loved the marionettes in DMC, though. I thought it was an interesting concept.
The original RE2 was scrapped. Initially, we didn't have Claire, and the police station actually looked a lot different. I *think* there were going to be horses in that one, too.
If anyone doesn't know, this site has pretty much everything pertaining to RE 1.5.

Resident Evil 1 - Richard Needs Serum (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTxpbiOX8KM#ws)
Around 8:20
"There are terrible demons! Ouuuuch!"
The dialogue is so terrible. XD
-
What pissed me off is he wound up dying anyway after I went to all that trouble to get the GD serum.
-
Have you played the Remake?
-
Remake ? There was a Remake ?

Yes. On the Gamecube.
Resident Evil Remake Trailer 1 (GameCube) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFhQrp5Bhhk#)

The beta turned into Devil May Cry. The original 4 was more eerie and supernatural.
Resident Evil 3.5 (All Footage) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NLUzU8Z_NI&feature=related#)
There was a black 'mist' and I think it was 'alive' and Leon was infected.
That's the video I was talking about...I mean, it actually looks scary! Why this was scrapped is beyond me.
Yeah, it had a fantastic creep factor! I don't know how it turned into DMC, because that game isn't creepy. At least not to me. I loved the marionettes in DMC, though. I thought it was an interesting concept.
The original RE2 was scrapped. Initially, we didn't have Claire, and the police station actually looked a lot different. I *think* there were going to be horses in that one, too.
If anyone doesn't know, this site has pretty much everything pertaining to RE 1.5.

Around 8:20
"There are terrible demons! Ouuuuch!"
The dialogue is so terrible. XD
It's the same character, more or less, only her name is Elza, and she went to town originally to promote a race or something of the sort. But other than that, they're both 19 year old biker chicks.
-
Interesting, this is the first time I've read this whole thread. Some of the same people who professed to love the series (even the 4th and 5th games) two years ago are now saying that the series is finished and that RE 4/5 are garbage. What happened in those two years? Mind you, this isn't a critique of anyone. I have former friends who I knew for years and would have done anything for, but for various reasons have nothing to do with them now. I write all this just to say how time and experience can change our viewpoints. :hmm:
-
Code Veronica was really difficult. Good game though. RE4 and RE5 were too action packed. They were more shooter/action than horror/survival. I liked them in the beginning when I played them. I was expecting something big of an ending. But I got nothing of that. I was unhappy.
I hope to see RE6 with improvements.
-
The demo's been hacked. It's garbage.
-
Even with the people who have left the RE series, there will always be fans. Believe it or not there were some people who actually liked RE4 and RE5.
As I said, one more chance for them. I'm getting this. I won't just say fuck it to this series after all of this time I've been with it. One more game. If this one fails me, then I'm done. It would suck if that happens....
-
I liked RE4, but it wasn't Resident Evil. RE5 is where they really screwed up. RE6 is being made to pander to the CoD generation.
I saw what was found through the hacked code. I'm not happy. At all.
-
^ Hmm...well I really liked the RE 3.5 beta stuff you showed me. Maybe that should have been RE4 (or RE5 actually--I never got why Code Veronica wasn't called RE4) and then the game that became RE4 could have been the start of a whole new series. I'm disappointed to hear that RE6 is just more of the same. Don't you think that the more action packed, FPS style of RE 4-6 has always been to attract the CoD/MoH crowd? :(
-
RE6 is down to the reticle, shoot while walking, and regenerative health. -.-
-
Idk if I should get Racoon City, apparently the storyline only takes 3 hours to complete and I don't think it's worth $50.
-_-
-
DON'T BUY IT.
-
It seems different from the others though, lol.
I'll get it when I see that the price tag is more of an acceptable $10.
Seriously, $50 for 3 hours gameplay?
Fuck off.
-
The story is shitty (I know it's not canon, but still).
The AI for your team SUCKS unless you're playing with friends. Veteran mode is not worth the aggravation alone. The online play is repetitive - wannabe CoD. If I wanted to play CoD - guess what - I'd play CoD.
-
I most likely won't get it.
I haven't played a lot of RE games.
I remember playing a few, YEARS ago on my friends Wii. You played as some blonde dude or something, and he goes to rescue a chick.
The first mission is when you go to a farm or some shit and there is a scare crow, and there is this zombie in the house and the protagonist goes up to him like a dumb ass negro and is like
"Yo, you seen this chick anywhere?" and then he gets attacked and that's the first mission. That's all I can remember from RE.
Also a mission where you're on this platform and it's falling down and you have to escape or soething.
-
RE4.
The platform part? Don't remember that. Maybe it was RE4. -shrug-
-
Yeah I thought so, and my memory is very vague about the whole thing. That's literally all I can remember from RE, and the thing that pops up in my mind when "Resident Evil" comes up is that creepy old merchant guy with the sinister voice.
And I never got into RE, I mostly got into Dead Rising.
-
WEELLLLCOMMMEE!
-
Have you played the Remake?
I have. It's how all remakes should be.
-
Hey, I liked RE 4 OK, it was a good game on it's own. That I replayed it about 22 times meant I liked it enough to do so. BUT.....I feel the game should have been titled "Leon 1" or something similar. It's certainly no Zombie game as the prior RE games were. And you're right, LG, "CV" ought to have been the real RE 4.
-
And you're right, LG, "CV" ought to have been the real RE 4.
CV = RE4
RE3.5 = RE5
RE4 = New series
RE5 = Sound of flushing toilet :laugh:
-
^ Exactly.

I'm not impressed with RE6. Scathing review to come when I pen it.
-
^ Will look forward to that. ;)
Right now, money is very tight for...reasons. Based on what I've seen, there's no way in hell I'm wasting my limited funds on it. :neen:
-
The RE series won't lose buyers. Even with people leaving RE there will always be fans. Why do you think they're still running? People still buy the games. I just got it for my B-day.
It's pretty good. Sure as hell better than RE 5. I don't expect to see it as a nominee at the VGAs though. AC III and Hitman: Absolution are at the top, not including any other games or series.
RE 6 is bringing back some of the things fans wanted from previous games along with some new ideas. They want to see how people react to RE 6 and use that info for a future game.
-
Said it before and I'll say it again: To me, RE is a dead series now. It lost its flare.
-
A lot feel that way. As I said though, hasn't stopped people from buying the games.
-
I'm in the process of playing Chris's campaign, which I have a feeling is the only one I'll like.
It's my first run-through and I'm playing it on veteran. Ammo gets tight on Veteran, so I resort to using the knife to conserve on ammo. Using the knife to defeat enemies is so much easier since you can move and use it (you can also shoot and walk). I like the challenge.
First off, the enemies could have been more creative. Some are some stupid half-grasshopper hybrid and some others are some stupid half-spider hybrid. It's actually incredibly cheesy and unimaginative.
Chris is perpetually angry and Piers sort of butts heads with him, but ... I didn't mind them so much. Chris was reckless at points, and Piers is sort of like a protective younger brother. I felt they had good chemistry in regards to their relationship.
The action is actually not that bad. It takes a moment to get used to it. I think initially the camera angle is a bit too fast, but altering it in the options fixes it.
The story ... where do I begin? It's lame. It's cheesy. It's ... again I use the word, unimaginative.
Another thing? I dislike Ada. Her wannabe Batman bullshit is obnoxious. She virtually has no flaws marysue. They focus too much on her. They focus too much on her 'relationship' with Leon.
Leon's story is ... boring. It's like they tried too hard to get back to the roots, they touched upon it, and instead of mixing it up a bit to keep it fresh, they kept it stale. Stagnant, even. Helena is whiny and nosy, constantly questioning his 'relationship' with Ada.
They also altered the RE universe to fit this storyline full of more plot holes than a slice of Swiss cheese. Chris has no idea who Ada Wong is. Um, how is that even possible? Previously, we were told he, Claire, Leon and Jill were part of an anti-Umbrella movement, and suddenly they're in separate organizations with little to no contact. Which is it?
I haven't done Sherry and Jake's story yet, so I can't comment on it.
The game could have been better in regards to the story. When the stories intersect, it's forced, it doesn't flow naturally. The enemies become stale after a while. The Quick Time Events (QTE) are obnoxious, because the game is peppered with them. Sometimes I just want to watch a damn cutscene.
Honestly, Chris is my favorite character and Piers has become a close second. I will replay the game to get the most out of it, but I think I'll enjoy Chris's segment the most. I could look past the enemies being boring if the story were more enthralling, but it's a letdown.
-
I'm currently playing Jake and Sherry's campaign. They took the ideas of RE 3 with nemesis and brought that back. People really liked the whole nemesis thing in RE 3, so Jake and Sherry are heavily based on that. You might like it.
There is a lot of QTEs in this game. I think it's one thing they added to try and make an improvement. Didn't really work. They're trying to go back to the roots while introducing some new ideas. As I said, whatever people say about RE 6 will end up impacting the next game on how it's made.
-
Thanks for your thoughts on it, Chrissy and Cobra. I've never forgiven the series for abandoning my favorite playable character, Claire. She's a big part of the reason why I still feel that the series peaked with RE2 and CV. :ajajaxh5:
-
They've added new female characters into RE 6, but I don't think we've seen the last of Claire. If they brought back Sherry from RE 2 then Claire will most likely be in another game. I didn't see Jill in RE 6, but I doubt we've seen the last of her as well.
-
Beat Chris's campaign.
Fuck you, Capcom. Piers was amazing. You should have killed whiny, bitchy Helena or fucking Ada. Hell, even Leon isn't Leon anymore, you should have killed him.
-
Yup. He's gone. And Chris was gonna give him the job too.
-
Fuck this game.
It screwed me out of two achievements.
Not to mention their checkpoints system is fucked up. I went to continue chapter 4 last night, it put me back at chapter 3.
GARBAGE GARBAGE GARBAGE.
-
Having fun are we ?
From Doug Elfman's nationally syndicated column, "Game Dork".......
"Overall, RE 6 is neither pure joy or pure misery. It is a great and terrible cinematic fest, a long romp with 4 different solo campaigns. But the game play is barely good enough."
Still though, he gave it a 3 out of 4 star rating.
-
Poor Chrissy. :laugh:
Said it before and I'll say it again: To me, RE is a dead series now. It lost its flare.
I'm with Red. :ajajaxh5:
-
As I said, I see RE 6 better than RE 5 for sure. Amazing? No.
I'm with Red as well. Although, I don't see it as dead, because people are still buying the games. It is going in that direction though, since people have been leaving the series behind. It's still questionable for whether or not the series will improve.
For me, whether I'm playing these games or not I'll remain a true fan and feel a sense of hope for the series. I'll be like that always due to the many years I've stuck by this series. Once you become attached to a game series it can become difficult to leave it (at least it is for me).
-
You make a good point. And I'm glad that its not RE5 bad. Still it always makes me sad when a movie or game series loses what made it special and distinct, instead favoring the ordinary and mundane in order to tap into a larger market. :/
-
Agreed. Although bringing in more players on a larger market can be a good thing. The developers of Hitman: Absolution are doing that. The only thing is that they thought it over and made sure they kept the long time fans happy as well as any newcomers to the series.
They kept Hitman what it is while making it slightly flexible for new players. There's a difference there.
-
The best part of RE has been left behind....And that is the funny Zombies. They were literally so stupid and that is what made them so damn hilarious. THAT'S what I miss.
-
I split the Hitman talk into the Hitman: Absolution (http://www.bully-board.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=8cb176eca71f476ce5cb81ff94f28675&topic=14955.45) topic. We can keep our conversation going there.
-
I just finished the campaign for Ada. That wasn't bad. It brings out a part of the story that you don't get to see in the other three campaigns.
So I've basically finished up the story of this game. Now I'm just doing replay. Joining other people in their games or playing with friends. Usually playing with a friend makes it more interesting.
-
In truth, I feel that the Resident Evil series started taking a turn for the worse with Resident Evil 4 (which, don't get me wrong, is a great game - but just doesn't "feel" like traditional Resident Evil.
In terms out of games in the series I have;
Resident Evil 0 (Gamecube)
Resident Evil (Playstation Director's Cut, Gamecube Remake and DS)
Resident Evil 2 (Playstation & Gamecube)
Resident Evil 3 (Playstation & Gamecube)
Resident Evil Code Veronica X (Gamecube)
Resident Evil 4 (Gamecube)
For those who think the Gamecube's a kiddy console, they obviously didn't realise that it gets the entire Resident Evil series up to the end of it's own generation (not counting spinoff games like the light gun shooters) - as well as having 2 exclusive games (well, 4 was exclusive for about a year before it got ported to other formats - Zero is still exclusive to the Cube)

I never veered far from Playstation. Long as RE was coming out for that I was happy. Long as any games I wanted were coming out for PS I was happy. Still like that now. Yes, I'm a fanboy.

I'm addicted to mercenaries and I'm gangsta at that shit.
Over 300k points co-op where I'm carrying the team, shit yeah.

Sorry, I know that this is old but I agree with you, BF. I love RE4 as a standalone game but not as part of the earlier series. I always wondered if the leader of the cult (Osmund Saddler) was originally supposed to be Oswald E. Spencer in the RE4 beta. Same initials, similar name. (shrug)
-
They released Revelations on the PS3 and 360. It's a decent game, might pick it up sometime. I already beat it on the 3DS, but they've added more to the newer versions.
-
Was that the one that tied up the loose ends between 4 and 5? I'd heard that Jill and Chris are finally a team again. :hmm:
-
Did anyone see that game Shinji Mikami is making? The Evil Within?
-
I heard a little about it but not much. :hmm:
-
Mikami is upset with the direction the survival horror genre is going and becoming action. He wants to make a game that is just pure horror as it should be.

^ There's vids there including the debut trailer and an interview with Mikami.
-
Interesting. From the description, it seems more Silent Hill-ish than RE oriented.
-
Mikami is upset with the direction the survival horror genre is going and becoming action. He wants to make a game that is just pure horror as it should be.
Even though he helped start the shift with RE4. Its a bit like a mad scientist warning the villagers that his monster got loose. :laugh:
-
RE4 was nothing impressive. I expect to see something out of this game though. If he can't bring what we need to redirect the horror as it needs to be then all horror games are doomed.
-
^ True. :ajajaxh5:
-
RE4 was garbage and was ultimately the reason the series sucks so bad.
My top 5 RE games are:
1. Resident Evil Outbreak
2. Resident Evil Outbreak 2
3. Resident Evil 2
4. Resident Evil 3
5. Resident Evil Code Veronica
Im REALLY REALLY REALLY hoping RE7 returns to the series roots. But for now, "The Evil Within" from bethesda seems like the only modern thing closest to RE roots.
-
I think the RE Series as we knew it is totally gone, period.
Although I did enjoy RE4 (and replayed it 22 times), it definitely wasn't an RE game really in hardly any sense of the word. Still, I could have adapted, but RE5 and RE6 destroyed any chance of that.
-
Like I've said before, RE4 was a fun game if taken on its own terms. But its terrible as a RE game. Storywise it sucked, too. Umbrella goes out of business off-screen, Leon becomes James Bond, etc. By 5 and 6, Capcom was making a mockery of a once-great series.
I do have high hopes for The Evil Within though. Anyone see the leaked footage? It definitely has a RE3.5 look to it. 8)
-
^ I'll agree with that. RE4 was so different, it was easy to treat it as a whole other, separate game. I've always considered Code Veronica as the true "RE4" and there, sadly, the franchise ended for me.
-

Ive said this so many times before lol!
This is how i truly consider the series:
RE0 = RE0
RE1 = RE1
RE2 = RE2
RE3 = RE3
RE CV = RE4
Outbreak = RE5
Outbreak 2 = RE6
And the 2 outbreaks i consider as RE5 and RE6. Sure, they were made after RE CV so it would make no sense to say they have a number after, however, they are really relevant titles and are more true RE than the actual RE5/RE6.
The rest, i consider mere Spinoffs. I no longer pay attention to the numbering because RE4/5/6 are not worthy of being numbered entries.
-
^ I'll agree with that. RE4 was so different, it was easy to treat it as a whole other, separate game. I've always considered Code Veronica as the true "RE4" and there, sadly, the franchise ended for me.
Truth. For me, the worst parts of RE4 were when they tried to connect the game to the earlier series. (Example: Krauser talking about restoring Umbrella.) Just admit that you abandoned the classic RE story arc and gameplay style, and instead invented an entirely new IP with the title 'Resident Evil 4' slapped on it. :rolleyes:
The rest, i consider mere Spinoffs. I no longer pay attention to the numbering because RE4/5/6 are not worthy of being numbered entries.
Also true. :ajajaxh5:

Thats just like the situation with the "Spyro the dragon" IP. Activision created Skylanders, but, threw spyro and 2 other spyro related characters in the game, with absolutely no ties to the real spyro series, and slapped the name "Skylanders: SPYROS adventure" on it as a selling point to start up their new cash cow. Poor spyro looks like he got hit by a bus and had to have his face reconstructed by a hobo doctor in an alleyway with a rustey needle and some other old stuff.

The only good thing to come out of RE 5 and 6 was the mercs levels. Fuck the game itself. :P
