Why would they be, it's ANOTHER HD game which will probably only be a little bit better but only available for the PC, what about PS4/Xbox One versions.

I just feel they've released this more times because RE5 onwards have all disappointed fans

They should of done a better HD edition but with a crap load of new content, maybe cut levels etc, new modes, new guns, better mercenaries. Why is it for the mercenaries mode they can't do it WITHOUT the stupid time limit, as an option, seriously I want to see how long I could last without breaking those silly clocks.

I don't see why it's so hard for them to make a good RE game...they need to reboot it now though, they've ruined the story and characters way too much. You know my idea, reboot-retelling, same characters, same starter story but different future events.

"I just feel they've released this more times because RE5 onwards have all disappointed fans."

I think this sentence you said makes a lot of sense. 5 and 6 were Capcom's embrace of "nu-horror", where they say it's horror, but it has more action setpieces than a Michael Bay movie. Capcom knows that everyone liked RE4, so they're just cranking out another one to get every drop of relevancy onto the market. (We'll probably have a 4K re-release when that catches on too)

RE4 is great. I love that game so much, but I totally agree that another re-release of this game, only with a better frame rate and HD on PC, is no reason to buy this again, especially at $20.

Gaming1013802d ago

RE4 already came out on the PC.... I'm pretty sure the PS3 and 360 HD versions were based on the PC code so they could actually be "HD", using the best assets etc. This can only really be a blatant cash grab, as you can get this on PC, and have been able to do so since May 2007.

Supposedly, the best way to play RE4 is to run the Wii Edition on the Dolphin emulator with a good PC, then apply the HD texture mod.
The original PC version was based on the inferior PS2 version (less polygons, worse lighting etc)

I hope this new HD PC edition is based on the Gamecube graphics and not PS2. For all the releases this game has had, none have truly done it justice in all areas.

Milruka3802d ago

It would be nice if they did use the gamecube models. But by the looks of it, I'd hardly call this a "HD" version so far.

weirdo3802d ago

port it to ps4 please capcom!

LoaMcLoa3802d ago

It's been re-released like 5 times already. Pretty much everyone has played it.

speedforce1313802d ago

Hold on a minute, speak for yourselves! I want the HD Remake for the PC! Last PC version was awful and didn't take advantage of the PC's strength. I think that this is a good opportunity to get a proper version in our hands, even though it is very late.

Resident Evil Zero and Code Veronica Remakes are reportedly in the works, not Resident Evil 1

Industry insider Dusk Golem reveals that there is no Resident Evil 1 Remake in the works. Instead, Capcom are reportedly in active development of Resident Evil Zero and Code Veronica.

-Foxtrot23d ago

RE Zero would be better to do first over RE1 because they can tie the story into RE1 more.

The original RE Remake was weird because Rebecca never mentioned anything about what happened in Zero and it felt so disjointed because Zero was developed during the Remake and they clearly didn't share any notes with one another.

Cacabunga22d ago

Wise decision. 2 of my favorites!

repsahj22d ago

RE Zero is one of my favorite game on gamecube!

Knightofelemia23d ago

Give me Dino Crisis dammit Capcom

TGG_overlord22d ago

And all it took was +24 years + a phone call from me lol.

GotGame81822d ago

LOL! A phone call from you? ROFL! They have been remaking RE games for YEARS! It was a matter of time!

Stellar Blade has sold more physical copies than Dragon's Dogma 2 in Japan, despite PS5 exclusivity

By the looks of it, PlayStation 5 exclusivity does not hurt the sales of Stellar Blade in Japan as the game has passed 90,000 sold physical copies.

Hugodastrevas26d ago

Stellar Blade really deserves way more praise than it got, devs have been adding more and more content, for free, since release and the game already was great to begin with!

BrettAwesome26d ago

More than it got? It got tons, by everyone except the sad wankers who's idea of a sex life, is pulling on their dicks while watching big fake cgi titties 😂

gerbintosh25d ago

Don't see the difference between cgi titties and fake boobs. Also no difference to wanking it to either one of them since both aren't physically there

RiseNShine25d ago

Salty that the game is doing well hm? ;) I suggest some cheese with your whine.

Skuletor25d ago

So you're saying the people that like watching CGI tits didn't praise the game? An educated guess is you meant the opposite.

BrettAwesome25d ago (Edited 25d ago )

@Risenwhine
What the fuck are you talking about? I think it looks like an awesome game. I don't get the sentiment that it didn't get as much praise as it deserved. The only ones who's been shit talking it, are sad wankers with no sex life. Am I whining? How? 😂

I think we can safely claim that Stellar Blade 2 is confirmed!
I got it day one, i have some backlog due to RDR2 i just platinumed.. i will get to Stellar Blade in the near future

shinoff218326d ago

Same but I'm hitting yakuza right now. Stellar blade looks cool though.

neutralgamer199226d ago

Capcom really dropped the ball with DG2. They had easy success on their hand but instead with their stupid decisions ruined the games success

Stellar blade is an amazing game and deserves all the success. For all the artificial hate it got from people who had no interest in the game to begin with this shows if you make a good game it will sell. The so called 1st party drought from PlayStation has meant 4 exclusives in 2024 so far. Other companies need to learn how to run a business and plan for the future

H926d ago

Stellar blade is performing very impressively there, DD2 didn't do well because word of mouth destroyed it's reputation and not about the Microtransactions or performance, bad word of mouth about how the game lacks so many things that were in the first one

Redemption-6426d ago

DS2 sold 2.5M in a little over a week, what the hell are you talking about?

H926d ago

"there", that's Japan, this article is about Japan, the bad word of mouth is about Japan

Hereandthere26d ago

Exclusives matter. No matter what bumbling phil and bond try to say, exclusives is why you buy a console.

The_Hooligan26d ago

How dare you speak common sense!!??

YourMommySpoils26d ago

Cause Hellblade 2 really matters?

jznrpg26d ago

It would if they added a lot more combat and didn’t focus on graphics

XiNatsuDragnel26d ago

Stellar blade is great excited for 2

anast26d ago

They dropped the ball with dogma. SB is a solid game, it just had to weather the social storm.

shinoff218326d ago (Edited 26d ago )

Said that dd2 was missing things the first one did,like mass effect 2? I haven't played it so I'm really asking.

spss1126d ago

I've played both and I have no idea what people say when they claim it's "incomplete". I've only noticed new things in comparison to DD1 (I would give a list but spoilers). Sometimes I wonder if some people actually played DD1 or maybe they remember it differently. Anyways, if you liked the first one and want more of that, you'll probably like DD2.

anast25d ago

Yeah, the content, combat movement is slower, less vocations, the armor system, it's more simplified, and dungeons are lacking. It's like they rushed it out or something, but didn't forget to add in youtuber pawns and micros. At least ME 2 upped the content.

Resident Evil 1 Remake To Have Slower Pace; Will Further Expand On The Game's Lore

Many details for the upcoming rumored Resident Evil 1 remake have already leaked online. Capcom appears to have huge ambitions for it.

XiNatsuDragnel31d ago

Sounds interesting I'll be interested in the second remake of re1

Cacabunga31d ago

They game cube remake was mind blowing.. another remake would be nice but i was really hoping for Code Veronica first

-Foxtrot31d ago

If it's true they are probably leading up to RE5 with the Chris vs Wesker story

RE1, CV and then RE5

Terry_B31d ago

Their REmake is still one of the best 3 video game remakes ever made.

Cacabunga31d ago

Terry

Zero was not a remake but an amazing game as well. I hope they remake that one one day with some coop play.. great great game

maelstromb31d ago

The whole Lisa Trevor side-story was an incredible addition and really fleshed out more of the lore. It could have easily felt tacked on to artificially extend the length of the game, but it felt 'right' like it should have been in there from the beginning. I'm hoping they include that in the Re-remake.

Yui_Suzumiya30d ago

Code Veronica definitely needs it the most!

Cant wait until they cut the basement section and replace it with something worse.

Becuzisaid31d ago

While I want another modern remake of 1, I think code Veronica should be first. The first re1 remake holds up amazingly well. Give CV it's due.

Scissorman31d ago

As long as the Crimson Heads are back.

Nerdmaster31d ago (Edited 31d ago )

I hope they don't. They were created mainly to justify Wesker not really dying, and they do create more tension, but they don't make much sense.
Re-reviving things that were twice dead? Why would the virus stop there and not keep reviving them forever (until the head gets destroyed)?
And also the characters knowing that destroying their heads keep them from becoming crimson heads, while having a combat knife and lots of heavy objects around to do it while they're down, but having to rely on lucky shots or burning them with oil?
They can create other stuff that serves the same purpose of creating tension but that makes more sense.

Levii_9231d ago

Come on State of Play already!!!
