I knew the end was coming with the release of Resident Evil 6! Can't wait for the zombies! :-)

TheSuperior 4242d ago

I can not wait for this game! who doesnt love zomibes :)

Carl_Shocker4242d ago (Edited 4242d ago )

They arn't Zombies...why is everyone falling for this.

They are disguised Las Plagas enemies using the Zombie name to trick people like your self into thinking it's a Zombie game and to make old fans think they are listening to them by giving them Zombies again

Don't fall for it...all the enmies in this game can pretty much do what the Las Plagas did in the last 2 games and more.

Sevir4242d ago

Its releasing and the game is going in the direction its meant to be.

Carl_Shocker4242d ago (Edited 4242d ago )

@Sevir

No...no I won't

I'm a fan of RE and I don't like what they've done to a once great fracnhise.

Unlike you I don't like it when developers f*** me over and give me the middle finger after I've been with them and there games from the start.

This is why these things happen and people don't speak out because theres people like you in the world who thinks everyone has to be silent and just accept anything thats thrown at them from bad to worse.

Treian4242d ago

Yes, let's get the "hell over" that the game isn't scary, has a AI following you everywhere, has zombies with guns, has regenerating health, and completely plays like Gears of War and Uncharted? Ok. *sarcasm*

@ Sevir

The only way old school fans might (but severly doubt) leave Resident Evil 6 alone if Zwei make an appearance in TGS. If the title brings actual horror atmosphere and gameplay but with graphics equal or better to Resident Evil 6 then t the tides will change with the "new" Resident Evil fans complaining about Zwei saying there is too little action and such.

Shinji Mikami is still angry to see his series go in this direction (He still haven't opened the copy of RE V that Capcom sent.) So I will not be surprised if his project ends up being it's direct opposite.

Both series will flourish with each fanbase complaining about the next thus is the fate of the two towers.

Ben_Grimm4242d ago

Its great right. You can't please everyone.

Sequels come out and most people on the internet scream "STOP MILKING!".

A company tries and change up an old franchise with something different and most people on the internet scream "STOP CHANGING!"

RE has evolved into something more than the 1st game. Their on 6 and the story has progressed way past it's mansion setting zombie roots.

Want Zombies, play L4D, Day Z or Dead Island.

Kos-Mos4241d ago

Did they f you over with Resident Evil 4, one of the greatest games ever made? In that case you will hereby be ignored.

Zombies are zombies. If you really want to nitpick, then there are no zombies in Left 4 Dead and a lot of other "zombie" games. Any special infected wouldn't be considered a true zombie, and since common infected in the game run, they wouldn't be true to Night of the Living Dead's original, slow-moving/shambling zombies. Resident Evil 6 is going to be a great game featuring evolved zombies, and if you don't want to play the game based on its lack of "zombies," you will be missing out on a great game for one of the silliest reasons ever.

Sabrina_Holmes4242d ago

I guess it is time to stock supplies. Tons of snacks, drinks and comfy chair to play this game when it releases. I will remain horded in doors..I will not even know there will be zombies outside.

VideoGameGuru4242d ago

Fun article. Resident Evil 6 looks to be a must-have title.

sandman2244242d ago

I cant wait till it comes out. I love me a zombie game. I'm buying the ps3 version what about everyone else?

sandman2244242d ago (Edited 4242d ago )

Ok I got a disagree. Who did that. There's no reason that comment should get a disagree unless youre 5 and only have a Xbox. Grow up and get a life you troll. I just want to know what my n4g members are buying the game for?

Yeah I figured it would be ordered like this. For me Leons best game was his debut. RE2.

There Will Never Be Another Resident Evil 6 (And That Sucks)

A rough gem that may never get the proper treatment it deserves.

Terry_B398d ago

^^ I don't want what the author was smoking.

-Foxtrot398d ago

It’s this thing where after enough time people start coming out to defend bad games for some strange reason

I mean hey if you liked it good for you but it was a f****** awful RE game.

Capcom are finally back on track and now people are crying about their shitty mistakes? No thanks.

RpgSama396d ago

I'd take a full blown remake of RE6 based around a GREATLY expanded Leon part and make it even more horror.

That might be something I would be interested in, do not care about any of the other parts of that game.

MadLad396d ago

I couldn't even get through the demo.
Years later I bought it for $3 for PC. I played about 5 minutes into it and uninstalled it.

babadivad396d ago (Edited 396d ago )

RE6 was better than 5. RE6 just took the series to the conclusion that started with 4.

RE4 was the inaugural title in the action game trilogy.

RE9 will be the likely end of the first person psychological thriller trilogy.

They'll switch it up for RE10 or more likely titled RE-X.

hotnickles396d ago

5 is vastly better than 6 imo

TheEnigma313396d ago

RE5 is way better than 6. Stop lying to yourself

FallenAngel1984398d ago (Edited 398d ago )

“But all this is solely with respect to how fans felt back in 2013 when Resident Evil 6 had just been released. The game resulted in the series getting indefinitely killed off until 5 years later when we got Resident Evil 7 and balance was restored yet again. ”

1.) Resident Evil 6 came out in 2012, not 2013

2.) A series getting killed off means no titles at all released in a time period. Silent Hill, Dead Space, Dino Crisis, Parasite Eve & Siren fans would love to see how you can say RE was on the same level of dormancy. In that 5 year time period we had a number of remasters that kept the series alive and kicking. RE1 02ms remaster even broke sales records during the period between RE6 and RE7.

3. Way to disrespect Resident Evil: Revelations 2. It was released during that RE6-RE7 period. It along with its predecessor were mainline titles that kept the horror roots of the series alive in comparison to RE5 and RE6. RE: R1 in particular even introduced the ability to walk and shoot into the series, a feature we can all be grateful for that in modern RE titles. The director RE: R1 later went on to direct RE7 and the director of RE: R2 later went to to direct the RE2 & RE4 remakes.

Immagaiden397d ago (Edited 397d ago )

“Resident Evil 6 is often maligned as the worst entry in the Resident Evil series and is cited as the cause behind the long death of the franchise.”

Titles in the Resident Evil series such as Survivor, Gaiden, Dead Aim, Outbreak, Operation Raccoon City, Umbrella Corps, & Resistance we’re received far worse than RE6.

And death of the franchise?

RE6 was still one of the most commercially successful games in the series, guaranteeing the franchise’s future. Compare how underwhelming sales of Dead Space 3, Silent Hill: Downpour. Alone in the Dark: Illumination, Dino Crisis 3, Fatal Frame: Maiden in Black Water, Castlevania: Lords of Shadows 2, and Metroid: Other M which caused their respective series to go into a long period of dormancy without any rereleases to even keep activity up.

RE however still had a significant number of titles released and rereleased after RE6. Not only that but development for RE7 started a short time after its predecessor came out, meaning there was never a development time that the series could be considered dead. There hasn’t been a single year that Capcom stopped either developing, releasing, or rereleasing Resident Evil games. Let’s not act like the 5 year period between RE6 and RE7 is such a longer time compared to the 4 year period between RE4 and RE5 as well as RE7 and RE8. We can pretty much expect RE9 in either 2025 or 2026, and you can be certain that Capcom will still release other RE tiles leading up to it

TheEnigma313396d ago (Edited 396d ago )

Man go some where with this. Only a few like this game. Why would they remake a garbage game no one likes risking money because it won't sell? RE 6 is dumpster drippings, sorry.

MIDGETonSTILTS17396d ago

It wasn’t that good, even if you enjoyed it like me.
