Capcom ‘really’ wants to sell you Resident Evil 6

Making video games in today’s market is a big risk. Making anything in today’s market is a big risk. Developers and publishers of all sizes put forth countless hours and capital to put out a product it hopes that gamers everywhere will enjoy. (PC, PS3, Resident Evil 6, Xbox 360)

"Capcom ‘really’ wants your money"

fixed that for ya

i kinda blame the fans for this abomination. we were bitching and complaining that you couldn't run and gun, now they threw the whole modernized package at us. we are hard to please and that's the bottom line.

I was happy with the stationary shooting. It just worked hand in hand with the enemy AI. There was actually no need in being able to run and gun. Whoever thought "I need to be able to move whilst shooting in this game" really doesn't understand that the game mechanics are that way for a reason. The enemy AI run up to you then slow down whilst you aim. Because you can't move and have enemies in your face it creates the tense feeling. May not be realistic, but it made the game fun.

@PosTedUp
You could walk and aim in dead space 1 and it was just what everyone wanted from Resident Evil - dark, moody, scary, lonely. Nobody asked for huge explosions, cover shooting and roundhouse kicks...

@Dmd agreed. If DS made you conserve ammo and health then it would be awesome.

@Denethor

This is true, I saved so much bullet that in the end of the game I had an arsenal at hand. Could enter in the 3rd world war that I would win.
VanillaBear  +   323d ago
So true

You should see it on Facebook, they seem to be really desperate to sell the game

Posting screenshots and then BS captions. Like one recently which had Leon and Helena shooting

"Bullets fly, but ammo conservation is key in Resident Evil 6. You'll run out quick if you get trigger happy..."

I mean like thats REALLY going to happen, trying to make it sound like it's like the first game. I bet you could be trigger happy throughout the whole game and you would still have a ton of ammo by the end of a chapter.

Readig the comments though poeple are actually falling for it, the amount of times I've seen

"It's going to be a survival horror again, THANK YOU Capcom"........COME ON GUYS

I really want gamers to boycott this s'''
Dmd  +   323d ago
What really annoys me is that gamers want to have a voice in this industry but they keep supporting all the things that they complain about.

People have to know that THEY have full power. If they want to change something they boycott it they show their disagreement and things will change NO DOUBT !
I only bought Code: Veronica on PSN this gen from them cause for me that's THE resident evil and the rest preowned.
123_321  +   323d ago
Well i'm 'really' not going to buy that fucked up shit.
Farsendor1  +   322d ago
dude your supposed to set an example for the children you are the greenranger.

anyways of course capcom wants people to buy their game. they don't want to put money into and it not sell that is why they are marketing the game.

is the game good? thats another story i haven't played it but the things i have seen on it i probably wont play the game.
SephirothX21  +   323d ago
Not buying it. I want a proper Resident Evil game.
Styxoric  +   323d ago
Yeah i'm not getting it either. Build a proper Resident Evil and you have my money.
Dark11  +   323d ago
Fans says that they are not buying this game .. but RE6 will sell alot just like RE5
it is not survival horror game but at least it will be good action game .. after all we all play games for fun and complaining will make your gaming life pointless.
azshorty2003  +   323d ago
Even if RE fans don't buy it, the Dudemanbro crowd will. It'll sell a ton. RE fans will be even more abandoned. And next year it'll basically be CoD: Raccoon City.
tigertron  +   323d ago
If Capcom REALLY wanted to sell me RE6, they'd bring back the herbs, ditch the Michael Bay action, give me more zombies, make us conserve ammo etc...
KingItachi  +   323d ago
The really want it but they won't be getting it.
lyliade  +   323d ago
the demo is shit and like the re5! i want a resident evil like the first 4 opus scary an less actions Capcum
JAM_brz  +   323d ago
Sorry, but Cash.com will not hear you! But if you ask for DLC... that will work!

A company makes a product and is doing its best to sell it to you. More news at 11.

Ideally, with the best interest of gamers in mind, they should do its best to make the product and let it sell itself on its own merit. Most industries don't get that chance like they do in gaming.
JAM_brz  +   323d ago
Capcom was influenced by the success of games like Call of Duty.

And everybody says, "I will not buy," but in the end, RE6 will be the best selling Resident Evil series.

And Capcom will be laughing a lot.
Wizziokid  +   323d ago
I was going to buy, then I found out it wasn't scary and it dropped the herbs... shame
Emilio_Estevez  +   323d ago
Well that's funny, I really don't want it, but I'm open to hearing them out, lol.
daggertoes83  +   323d ago
Most not all but most people that want the horror resident evil are veterens to the series. A lot of people this generation are growing up in the gears,call of duty,and halo era and so that's why resident evil is turning into the more familiar shooter that it is. Me I would love a survival horror game but It will not sell as much.
Trenta27  +   323d ago
When I found out the herb system was gone and the coop system sucks, they lost my purchase. I'm just going to go back and replay the other RE games.
GamerElite  +   322d ago
If you want herbs, grow a garden.
Kyosuke_Sanada  +   322d ago
Freaking hilarious!!!

The herbs made you think twice before doing something. Now it's just regen health. I couldn't care less.
Dmd  +   322d ago
They lost my purchase when I saw the first gameplay footage with waypoints in it. Such an ridiculous decision! Than there was the news about weapon wielding zombies and cover-system. As much as I love the lore and characters, this franchise doesn't mean a lot to me anymore.

@GamerElite
Wow! You should have your own stand up show!

THIS!

When they decide to return the game to it's root with scares, atmosphere, puzzles, when I will see that they make a game that needs wise management of ammunition & health items in order to survive when they cut the co op bullshit & when make it finally what RE was all about, "Horror" & "Survival" only then will get my money, this CoD-Wannabe garbage not getting even a cents from me.

I hope the true fans boycot the game every $ they loose it's a good thing, I dont care if they use 200 devs to make this sh1t & spent 50-60 millions or more this is not RE I hope it flop so they will learn a lesson.

I don't buy anything with the Capcom name on it anymore after RE5 and all their disc locked content that they sell as DLC. There are just better devs/publishers to support. while they all want to make money Capcom just seems to blatantly rip off the customer with their DLC.
TheDivine  +   322d ago
If people miss the old RE then its not about buying/not buying this game, BUY REVELATIONS! That has herbs, scarse ammo, a creepy place to explore and backtrack, and its was phenominal. If you all bought that instead of bitching that they dont make anything like the game you didnt buy then maybe we would get a sequel and more like it.

Also i wouldnt judge 6 before you play it. It might be creepy and have the same soul the old games had. 4 did and 5 did at parts. Gamers are the only people on the planet who bash everything or declair its Godlike status before even playing or acually seeing it in person.
