‘Resident Evil: Revelations’ compared to ‘Resident Evil 5’ and ‘Resident Evil 6’ (Photos)

Masachika Kawata has provided a comparison between “Resident Evil: Revelations” and the two latest mainline games in the series, “Resident Evil 5” and “Resident Evil 6.” According to a report by Gaming Everything on Feb. 3, the producer revealed that players won’t be able “massacre enemies by the dozen” in “Resident Evil: Revelations” like they could in the fifth and sixth main titles. However, the three games do share one element in common: characters trying to escape from “extreme survival situations”. You can check out some screens from “Resident Evil: Revelations” and “Resident Evil 6” in the slideshow at the top of this article.

but i still don't understand why Revelations is not coming to the Vita . that Vita gots some power . . weLp, maybe it's how the vita has no comfy comfort?, they did build seperate comfort grips for the thing . . or maybe is it's lack of 2 screens? . i think its the Vitas awkward build .

Blacktric4090d ago

"or maybe is it's lack of 2 screens?"

Vita already has the touch capability and the lower screen of 3DS didn't do anything exceptional for Revelations as far as I remember (I think it was used for the map and inventory management). There is no "technical" reason why Revelations isn't coming to Vita. It's either purely a business deal (possibly between Nintendo and Capcom), or Capcom doesn't want to invest in Vita at the moment.

BullyMangler4089d ago

well good points, but i dont know, i dont think its a monetary issue of why Revelations is skipping the Vita . . neither that Nintendo is jelous OF the Vita.
and i guess the 2 screened difference between the Vita and 3DS, does give the 3DS ANOTHER advantage over the Vita, or so the MASSES say . . soon we will know the truth .

Skate-AK4089d ago

They said they wanted it in HD.

Skate-AK4089d ago

I wish it was in 3D like the 3DS.

BullyMangler4089d ago

I seriously hope these pics of Revelations shown here from the under "powered" 3DS side by side with the SUPER power of a ps3, teaches all fanboys and girls a lesson regarding ART DIRECTION.
Just because something doesn't have as much power as the other, doesn't mean the lesser one will suffer, or suck .. ..

with that said .. get ready to get your souLs kissed, when Nintendo shows the PLANET true POWER, at THIS YEARS E3 .. .

Resident Evil 5 - 15 Years of Being the Most Misunderstood Resident Evil

Resident Evil 5 launched 15 years ago today - and it continues to stand as a stepping stone from the good to the bad.

TheBrainZ43d ago

One of my favourites because of the co-op. Then Resi 6 arrived and the series nosedived further.

Knightofelemia43d ago

I enjoyed the game co-oping with a friend I know the game in solo the AI can be an idiot but RE5 is way better then RE6. I played RE6 with a friend if it wasn't cheap when I got I would have avoided RE6.

thesoftware73043d ago (Edited 43d ago )

5 was excellent, still play Mercs with my brother.
I would love a fully remastered RE:5, with some added, reworked content. The DLC for 5 was also excellent.

6 was awful.

CrimsonWing6943d ago

I never understood why the game was misunderstood. It was a fantastic game at launch and is still fun today to play. It’s as action packed as Resident Evil 4 was, yet that’s regarded a masterpiece 🤷‍♂️

chobit_A5HL3Y43d ago

it was "misunderstood" because they introduced co-op into the franchise at a time when people loved to have fake rage about co-op. like, you could play the game as a solo experience, but people chose to have their bandwagon rage because it was cool at the time lol

-Foxtrot43d ago (Edited 43d ago )

What the hell are you talking about? Fake Rage? Bandwagon? Come on.

You can play it solo but you are forced to carry around a shitty AI partner you have to micro manage. It wasn't as fun solo.

Co-op sucked all the horror, tension and suspense from the game because having a partner covering you was like a safety net. Enemy trying to sneak up on you? No sweat the AI will just automatically lock on, alert you while they shoot first telling you where they are basically.

It was the start of Capcoms fall with the Resident Evil series where it basically become an over the top generic action game which betrayed it's own survival horror roots. Least RE4 had a good blend of both but Capcom just went the wrong way with RE5, especially going off what they were going to do during the RE4.5 beta phase before co-op was added.

franwex43d ago

At least the game was a ton of fun tho. If the game was bad, the outrage would’ve been justified. They simply pivoted for a couple of games. At this point it’s bad because it’s called Resident evil 5? But if was called something else it would’ve been good? Please.

chobit_A5HL3Y42d ago

like i said: fake baby rage and bandwagon hate. res4 wasn't really that scary, either, and was already taking the series into more of an action-oriented direction at the time. 5 was a good game that people fake-hated because of co-op that you didn't even have to play lol hence the fake rage and bandwagon hate. i mean, it obviously did well enough for capcom to go ahead and make 6 the way they did, right? if 5 was so bad, they would have changed what 6 was during development. the difference is that 6 was actually just bad.

people "hate" 5 because res4 was so good, and 5 was just unfortunate enough to be its successor. like i said, 4 wasn't scary, either, and relied more on tension than horror, but it was already more of an action game. if you don't wanna like 5 because it's not scary or whatever- that's fine, but it wasn't meant to be strictly a horror game anymore at that point anyways. the gameplay was a lot faster-paced than 4, so saying that the ai helping you by potentially shooting someone that was sneaking up behind you is a moot point. there were more enemies that were more aggressive, along with newer threats.

5 isn't as good as 4, but it's not a bad game by any stretch.

Tody_ZA18d ago (Edited 18d ago )

What? I always thought RE5 had fake controversy because it was set in South Africa and you shot a bunch of black zombies. I live in South Africa and thought the game was absolutely awesome, played the whole thing co-op with my brother.

@Foxtrot I think you're confusing the garbage Dead Space 3 with Resident Evil 5. Resident Evil 4 was already a hyper action game and had zero fear factor other than the grotesque appearance of some enemies.

Steam Uproar as Capcom Slips In Restrictive DRM Software

From Xfire: "Steam users and the larger PC gaming community are lashing out at Capcom over a streak of sneaky DRM updates as the Japanese gaming giant continues to flirt with controversy"

LordoftheCritics83d ago

RIP

Capcom turning into Ubisoft.

Well success can have that effect.

just_looken83d ago

Yep this shows how bad a digital world is now well for the old titles new games disc or not the drm is there but you can get the old games on dvd then try to monkey the last pre drm update onto the game files.

I love GOG for this reason i saw that skyrim bs update so i know not to run that version as gog you can select what patch to download/install with capcom hopefully we get a list of the update numbers that add this horrific drm.

With denuvo as a alder lake pc user it still has issues with E cores and i remember when the servers were taken offline forcing hundreds of games to be paperweights.

FinalFantasyFanatic83d ago

It's also really annoying how they can cut or change content later, like the Skull Girls controversy, a decade later after the game came out, they decide to censor it. The game is a decade old, if it's not broken, leave it, adding DRM back into older games is BS.

just_looken83d ago

@final

Good point even major sp games got the cut after the fact be it last of us with maps/art or gta 5 removing stuff in the world.

Cyberpunk ps4 day one disc copy the sept build still has stuff the other versions no longer have.

With the gta 6 controversy right now i think back to the days of saints row creating a character beating up cops with a dildo bat and now we have elon crying over gta 6 guns killing cops i bet you if they made saints row 2 hd they would half to cut half the games content or go to jail lol also sad.

Was watching avatar last airbender 13yr old ang kissing katar again can not have that in a kids show or game now.

PRIMORDUS83d ago (Edited 83d ago )

Do they want more of their games to be torrented? Seems like it, I don't mind 🤣 Just ripped them a new asshole on Twitter, as I do not care what I say or post on there LOL.

banger8883d ago

Let me guess, you have a vpn enabled. For your sake I hope it's not in any 5 Eyes territories.

PRIMORDUS83d ago

I have ExpressVPN but on Twitter I don't use it lol. For other things I use it :D

Barlos83d ago

Nice. I got a lifetime ban on Twitter back in 2020 for speaking my mind. Don't care tbh, I'm not really into social media. I don't even have a Facebook account.

PRIMORDUS82d ago

I'm still trying to get banned to lol I'll keep at it 🤣 I have FB but maybe log in once a month but yeah always speak your mind no matter how bad the words come out, do not hold back online or IRL. Fuck them shit bags lol.

got_dam83d ago

This is classic Capcom. They everything they go on a hot streak and win back some consumer good will they have to turn around and burn it to the ground and have to start the whole process again.

Chocoburger83d ago (Edited 83d ago )

Additional DRM just pushes people to pirate more. These ignorant executives just don't get it. Only the legitimate customer is affected by DRM. 😕

Darkegg83d ago

Drm punishes legit customers and encourage hackers. It’s the wrong way to go about it.
