I wouldn't know since i have to pay for xbox live to download something that might generate sales...
I hope so. I think a reboot would be a great way to clean up the story and reintroduce the cast in a non-convoluted way.The Floating Nose said:I feel like the series WIL Lbe rebooted after RE6.
I wouldn't go as far to say Resident Evil 6 is already a reboot, but I think it was certainly already trying a lot of new things, and trying to get away from the RE4 type gameplay. Resident Evil 5 was shit, but it still had the signiture RE4 gameplay mechanics, which was it's only saving grace. Hell, it even had a lot of the same enemy animations as RE4.The Floating Nose said:I feel like the series WIL Lbe rebooted after RE6.
you are so full of shit its not even funny, I am 16 and I fucking love amnesia the dark descent, a game that takes player power away completely.glchicks said:The psychological aspect of horror is too scary for kids these days, and that is supposedly where the money is. And kids like it when they are instantly good at something, so the unique control scheme of resident evil has to be homogenized with the what Cliff Blezinski (bless his heart) thinks a tps control scheme and setup should be because his games seem to sell. It doesnt pay (as much) to be unique and individual.DrunkOnEstus said:So yesterday I realized there was a public demo for RE6, and downloaded that thing as quick as PSN would allow (which isn't at all quick, as many of you know). I finished Leon's campaign, and made it what I assume is halfway through Chris's.
...all I could do while playing the thing was shake my head, or sigh, or other signs that you aren't having fun. I embraced the changes in 4 because despite everything it was really fun to play. I didn't like 5 when I played by myself, but I managed to find it...tolerable when I beat it with the wife in the weird pseudo-split-screen.
6 though completely ceases to feel at all like it should be carrying the RE name. I never once was afraid that I would die, and even took to swinging punches and kicks as Leon just to see how hard is was to die on purpose, and simply put you can run full speed from giant checkpoint to the next and not worry about enemies.
Hope fall apart when I played as Chris. Giant assault rifle with hundreds of bullets, Chris loves to end up on the ground after every move and shot taken, wall cover, rolling all over the place? I felt like I was playing a fleshed out, Japanese-infused Capcom version of the CoD zombie game(s).
I'm not one to expect things to stay the same, and I would be wondering where the evolution was if we were still moving with tank controls and saving with ink ribbons. But only if what we're growing into is fun, and worth the transition. For me personally, what I played of RE 6 is NOT fun, was a frustrating, head-shaking barrage of anti-fun, and I have no intention of picking it up at any point unless it turns out that the demo was poorly representative of the final experience. For the record, my wife (who beat RE 5 with me) saw the demo while I was playing and when I asked her if she'd want to beat it, she practically begged me to not make her go through it and to not ask lest she be guilted into actually having to play it.
So, anyone else give this thing a spin and have any impressions to share about it?
And for the record, yes the demo was a fucking waste of time as will the game. I mean zombies with guns, come the fuck on
....glchicks said:I did say "kids" first of all, and I was kind of referring to 10 year olds. They want to make it so a 10 year can play resi and not shit his pants and go crying to mommy. So they set up this fuckin shooting gallery where they are a macho badass that can just hide behind walls all day because thats what they know. Second of all I didnt say all kids are idiots, some of them have sense and these kids grow up to be adults with sense. Its just that the majority of them are fuckin idiots, just like the majority of adults are fuckin idiots with their heads stuck so far up their own... bubble
I'm 15 mate, and I think you are being way to harsh on glchicks, your class might all enjoy amnesia but to be honest most people my age prefer COD and resi 5 to amnesia, in fact they are the exact people mentioned it the post you quoted and they all love resident evil 6. So while I get you are against age stereotyping you may need to consider that a class of 30 may not be the rule but instead the exceptionfelbot said:you are so full of shit its not even funny, I am 16 and I fucking love amnesia the dark descent, a game that takes player power away completely.glchicks said:The psychological aspect of horror is too scary for kids these days, and that is supposedly where the money is.

hell my entire class loved the game, every guy in that class who had played that game all agreed it was a awesome game.
seriously ca stop assuming that male teenagers are just all idiots, its getting tiring.

yeah...but thats irrelevantglchicks said:In a way they are. You think 10 -12 year olds didnt play resident evil 5 and think it was the best game ever?
Famitsu gave it 39/40.CrazyCapnMorgan said:I'm going to call this now:
When this game comes out, it'll get great, if not awesome, reviews despite the fact that it's complete and utter garbage.
I was digging the Leon section up until the points you mentioned.. (Metal Detector, Static Bodies). I passed the bodies and decided to "waste ammo" to kill them - Shoot - Hit Floor - Move on.. sure enough, they stand up on the return trip. Sigh.burningdragoon said:The Leon section was okay. Okayish at least. I mean it started out all atmospheric and slower paced. And then there was the many obvious come back to life corpses that you couldn't shoot until they got up. And of course the incredibly obvious metal detector with the convenient un-hop-over-able small desk in the way.
The other two sections were... there.
Really? Wow, imo this is the worst game i've played in a very long time, Capcom would have to pay me $60 to play it again.Ishigami said:Famitsu gave it 39/40.CrazyCapnMorgan said:I'm going to call this now:

Catfood220 said:I'm sorry, but...why?DrunkOnEstus said:I'm not buying this game unless I read nothing but positive things about this game from players and reviewers, I can't see it happen. I feel sorry for my friend who I know is going to end up disappointed by this game, but is buying it because its got Resident Evil stamped on it, like he was disappointed by Operation Raccoon City.
I loved the demo, but if you didn't then that to me signifies a game I would not want to buy. Just because it got glowing reviews would not make YOU like it any better. Playing the game is the best way to judge if you'll like a game or not, and that's what you did with the demo so I'd say it's probably not for you. Why would the rest of the game change your mind? =S
