We're honestly starting to feel like Resident Evil 5 is this year's Metal Gear Solid 4. The game constantly generated enormous lines at the Tokyo Game Show, not only due to its playable demo but its multiple, action-packed trailers. Though not devoid of exciting gameplay footage, the content was clearly centered on the game's plot and remarkably high production values.
If you're not afraid of M-rated mutilation and potentially gigantic spoilers, be sure to check out the special TGS trailers we've placed after the break. Especially the second one.
Just because MGS4 wasn't AMAZING doesn't mean it wasn't a good game. I wasn't totally blown away by it but it had some great parts to it and an unforgettable story so I enjoyed it for that.
Man the characters in this game are lame. "Is it all worth fighting for?" I don't know, but it's fucking zombies, so there's not much choice, is there? RE is always so terribly melodramatic. It worked in RE4 because it was really sparse and usually just funny, but this looks like it's trying way too hard to be epic.
Nice to finally see some bosses, though. They're really where the art design gets a chance to shine, and they look pretty good this time around. Cannot wait for this game.
Yeah, the control scheme was pretty scary... Gave me chills just thinking about how evil the designers must have been to force you to play like that...
>>; You're missing the point here. I first played RE4 on the Wii and I loved it so I picked up REmake. I played that and realized how it was so much better than RE4 because it was scarier and it /was/ a survival horror. Not an action horror.
I can't wait either Chase, because as you know anyone who uses the word "black" is racist. Anyway seriously I'm looking forward to this game a great deal, even if it isn't Resident Evil anymore.
