Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami reveals that he isn’t too fond for the RE series anymore. The developer admits that he doesn’t like the fact that someone else created Resident Evil 5 without him and that Resident Evil 6 seems “more like a Hollywood action film than a zombie game.”

Oh well sure what can you do lol.
I think RE6 looks like its going to be a fun action game... but an action game only.
That said, I am interested to see how Mikami's new project spans out...
so all in all had it not been called resident evil and the story having nothing to do it, i would have not really given the game with gameplay like this that much attention at all
and yes i realise it sounds like im getting sucked in because of the name
p.s looking forward to mikami's new game as well
let's hope capcom gets it right but somehow i doubt that
he can make us a kickass, new horror game.
i have loved everything he has put out the last few years, and further back of course
+ suda51: killer7, shadows of the damned
vanquish, god hand, RE 1-4
SHinji Mikami for president of Capcom! Capcom should release all rights to resident evil to this guy. He created it.
Ditto on still not having played RE5 and I played every other game in the series and most of the spinoffs on the ps1/2. It's not survival horror anymore. Period.
Dont buy the game on launch and Capcom will learn their lesson...what is so hard about that.
If I was him I would create a new IP just like RE.....Zombies, a mansion, a special team of characters going in to check things out. Not really copying when you created the RE fanchise. That would be a giant middle finger to Capcom
People are actually believing Capcoms lies that it's a horror game. I feel like punching each person on the page who comment on their photos thanking them...I mean it's people like them why Capcom are so corrupt.
Even though I still do enjoy "most" of the RE games that have come out since he left quite a bit, his games, especially the RE Remake, were the BEST hands down. They were also some of the best games in the industry and its history.
I have many issues with RE now , but at least it's still a good action game . Problem is it isnt really supposed to be .
RE movie = lousy actress + cringeworthy support cast + vapoware director + mindnumbingly bad action . Even a Michael Bay resident evil would be better
Read his full interview on CVG, it's really good if you're a fan of his games.
i think that the same thing would happen if kojima were to leave the MGS series. He talks about getting the younger staff at KP ready for their own MG game, but time and time again he finds himself thrown back into the directors chair for various reasons (the game the younger staff was making was not on par with HIS vision) and i am sure if he were to actually call it quits that konami would force another MG game with or without kojima. and kojima would begin to hate the series that he created..its sad that Mikami is watching his series die off the way it is and we will never know what his vision was for the rest of the series.... so i have a question for all of you n4g users and people who complain about kojima continuing mgs....would you want a new director to create a new mgs game OR have kojima continue it?
i'll simply go about it a different way i guess
However, if the game never leaves it's roots of being a stealth tactical action game which improves on the the already established infrastructure then I believe fans will accept the game.
For example when I heard the disband of Team Silent, I was of course devastated and believed no one could fill their shoes. My perception changed after watching a fan-made video called "Silent Hill: No Escape" which was a 6 part mini-series directed by Nick Greenlee which kinda changed the lore of the town a pinch but captured the spirit of the now shaky franchise.

I still remain hopeful of new blood who truly recognized the identity of an existing franchise to carry out it's legacy but adding enough of his/her original flair that it feels fresh and inviting.
The game will be great fun and who knows maybe revolutionize the industry in a way we never saw coming in society.
My guess is would be the only two alive, Jill and Chris taking on the actual "shadow player" of the events unfolded......
RE only got to this stage because of RE4, which HE Developed.
I have NO problem with RE6, as i think the game plays and looks fantastic compared to the shit that was RE5. Until Shinji Mikami does wonders with his next true Survival Horror game, he should keep his flawed ego and thoughts to himself.

Capcom put the pressure on him in making the game more action oriented just like Konami did with Team Silent.
... other than the giant spiders. Creeped me the f*** out.
It's why people love games and movies like Deadly Premonition, Evil Dead, Dino Crisis...etc.

I get that people "want the horror back", but when was the last time a game was truly scary to you? Maybe a movie, book? You're not a kid anymore and chances are it takes way more than tank controls and (now) outdated gameplay mechanics to scare you.
Deadspace.
Imagine them growing tired of fighting games and deciding that street fighter should be some action tps or fps instead . That's precisely how ludicrous the trend have been so far .
And it get worse when there are folks like you drinking the koolaid and preaching about "evolution" or "fun" , instead of acknowledge that there are different ways of having fun , and that genre variety exists or existed for a good reason .
Mikami's next title should be sick!
