Joystiq has turned into Pachter central lately. The annoying thing about it is that none of us give a rats pajamas about what that douche thinks, yet Joystiq seems to think his opinions make interesting stories. Is Joystiq purposely trying to piss off all of their readers? Between the Pachter crap and the stupid face they keep hiding in all their pictures, this site is becoming an annoyance more than anything.

Wow, your life must suck...

Joystiq morons seem to think it's still funny (or that it ever was).

I'm pretty sure he was joking...

Doesn't anyone remember Resident Evil: Code Veronica on the Dreamcast (and later on PS2)? That was the pinnacle of RE games, even to this day. It still had a somewhat fixed camera, but the backgrounds were all real time, so the camera panned around the environments, making it easier to see/navigate. Not only that, but it had the best story and atmosphere of any RE game to date. If you haven't played it, get it for the Dreamcast or PS2, it's an awesome game.

As for the newer RE games, I have to agree with what many here have already said. Resident Evil 4 was good, but it didn't always feel like a RE game. IMO, there's nothing wrong with the new camera and controls, but the series has kind of lost the creepy atmosphere it used to have. Resident Evil 4 did, at times, remind me of the old RE games. At times, it was creepy and unsettling. However, there were plenty of other times in which it felt too much like an action game, and that's just not what RE is supposed to be.

P.S. Where did the Hunters go? Hunters were sweet (and terrifying), Capcom needs to bring those bad boys back.

Hmmm...could this be because the online multi-player is badly broken and EPIC is seemingly doing nothing to fix it?
