resident evil 4.5 anyone?

[The_Grenglish]

is it or has anyone else noticed

Resident evil 5, the most talked about and controversial, and even loved games out at the moment, is just an exact replica of resident evil 4 with a partner about 100x more useful, dont get me wrong, i dont mind a game that plays on simlar storylines, otherwise i would hate the original resident evils, but something about this game bugged me, its set in africa but some of the levels just looked too similar...

 

[rekabdarb]

well... the area of spain that capcom used for 4 was barren and desolate much like africa is today (although i'm just guessing about the 5 backgrounds)

I'm personally debating whether or not to get it. It looks like a ton of fun, but at the same time it looks like the flaws hold it back such as sluggish controls and a fiddly inventory menu. I may get it, though I'm not too sure.

I think it was laking the scary part. It is a great game and I really love it, but it failed to scare me like Res 4. Oh, it was scary the first time a dogs head split in half but by the fifth time it was losing its affect. This is because of two things, one: you in the day most of the game and if you not there is lights everywere. two: having a partner isn't as scary as being alone, if they split you up more and had more night levels it would be much scarier.

I still don't even get how people play RE5 with it's incredibly unintuitive control scheme.

And that comes from a person who probably worships Call Of Duty.

actually, call of duty is good, but i wouldnt give it my backing, not much of an fps-er at all anymore

Since when does every good sequel have to have a .5 at the end? Is there something I missed? Are games now just half instead of wholes? Or are people to fucking annoying and pretentious to shut the fuck up and enjoy the game?

I'd say rent it.

edgy...

nah it doesnt seem like a sequel though, i reckon if this game got released before the 4th one, it would be more liked, it just wouldnt make any sense rofl,

its just more of an update then a sequel

Bah, I don't rent, which is stupid on my behalf I'll admit. I either buy all my games or borrow them from a friend. I'll probably skip RE5 though.

Well they have very similar controls. I think 5 has better controls though. I don't have to pause it to pull out a new weapon and I can sidestep.
Apart from 4,5 and Umbrella Chronicles I haven't played any other RE games. From what I understand research labs are common levels in those games.

WRONG! Resident Evil 4 was actually good.

Anyone who has played the ending, will see why a shit game got down right unacceptable.

yeah, its a virus, the labs they come from are gonna feature fair enough

maybe i just lost my love of resi evil, i wasnt really content with number 4 being a proper resident evil, i love the dodgy camera angles and stuff, when i heard they were scrapping the beta in favour of over shoulder cam, i died a little inside rofl

So they "updated" it into the center of Africa? If Capcom can update themselves into anywhere in the world, then why can't I update myself into Hawaii?

I'll get 5 if they ever release a Wii edition (like they did for 4). FPSing just seems to fit more naturally into the Wii, in my opinion. (Maybe because it feels more like you're actually holding and aiming a gun?)

because your not:
1. a computer program
2. designer of yourself and your surroundings

and yes but even if its set in africa, things do look similar to spain, and im pretty sure they arent meant to look that similar

Yeah, it really does play just like Resident Evil 4 but with co-op. It re-uses a lot of the set pieces and challenges. So I guess if you love co-op and RE4 then this is the game for you. I hate playing it co-op though because my friends keep playing it like it's Gears of War. If I hear them begging for some of my ammo one more goddamned time, I'm playing solo.
