I'm looking forward to this game, I love the fast-paced nature of this one.

Venomousfatman3111d ago

Me too. The games I played were quick and constantly filled with action.

Romudeth3111d ago

I wasn't excited for it when it was announced and after playing it myself at NYCC... I can definitely say I'm not getting this. Not impressed.

Venomousfatman3111d ago

Its still early, so there is plenty of time for the game to be tweaked.

RAM0N 3111d ago

Im definitely getting this game

Venomousfatman3111d ago

Hope you like it when you pick it up! I'm interested to see how everyone will stand when the game comes out.

Not Like Operation Raccoon City...not like Resident Evil in general

No point in fuelling Capcoms on going quest to exploit their big franchises for the typical action genre when it just doesn't fit within those games. Next you'll see a DMC styled online shooter

It didn't need to be Resident Evil related in anyway. Could have just called it Umbra Corps or something

Venomousfatman3111d ago

I don't think that there is anything wrong with Capcom basing this game in the RE universe. They were already clear it doesnt affect the main storyline and is an offshoot of the series.

Even though the gameplay types are different, this doesn't make Umbrella Corps any less fun to play in the demo they showed. They have multiple Resident Evil games to cater to all types of fans now. If you want the traditional approach, you have RE Zero HD being made now, with RE2 HD over the horizon. PLUS, we have Resident Evil 7 already being talked about in some capacity. There is plenty of different flavors of the series to go around and cater to everyone.

-Foxtrot3111d ago (Edited 3111d ago )

So basically old fans have to rely on remakes of the old games instead of getting new ones. Yeah...that makes sense

They shouldn't be exploiting it like this and trying to do all these genres, how does a game like this fit within this Universe.

Problem is they don't cater to everyone. We get over the top action this, over the top action that, side of co-op here, here and here. RE5, RE6, Revelation, The Mercenaries 3D, Revelation 2, Operation Raccoon City, Umbrella Corps and yet for old fans it's like "Oh yeah here is a remake we released on the Gamecube years ago and we currently have a remake of the second game in development"

Yeah I like the remakes but as an old fan who supported this series and got it where it is today I want something new off them. A new game which forwards the series which is catered to old school fans. Why should we be pushed back?

No franchise should be exploited, you either like the franchise for what it was/is or you don't. Why change the tone of the game, if you are a new fan and prefer the newer games then you don't really like Resident Evil do you....you just like what it's been turned into, aka a completely new game.

DarkOcelet3111d ago

They could have used that budget to make Outbreak File 3. So many fans wanted that.

They could have given us an HD collection of Outbreak File 1 and File 2 with online support. Fans would have loved that.

gantarat3111d ago

Capcom didn't use Resident Evil title on US/Western Version.

Venomousfatman3111d ago

It really isn't. You should check out the footage of the game and read the preview before passing judgement.

1060FX83003110d ago (Edited 3110d ago )

All I need to do is play any other milked generic FPS franchise in existence. Essentially the same thing. Uninspired shite. I don't know how you can defend this f*cking crap

Behind AC: New Horizons, this is my 2nd most wanted game this year.
Until Capcom remade RE2, RE3: Nemesis on PS1 was my favourite RE game.

Tross1509d ago (Edited 1509d ago )

I do think it's easily one of the most underrated RE games. I'm looking forward to fending off REmake Nemesis, especially since I heard his appearances throughout the game will now be somewhat randomized.

AK911509d ago

Umbrella chronicles is still my favourite it was really cool going back and playing the classics with updated graphics.

Nerdmaster1509d ago

I would say I thought Darkside Chronicles was better mainly because 2, Code Veronica and 4 (kind of represented in the game by Leon and Krauser) are my favorite games. But the super shaky camera in Darkside really bothered me...

Only someone involved in the mansion incident could understand huh? Please Capcom, can we finally get some acknowledgement of Jill and where she's at?

Lord_Sloth2548d ago

I take it you didn't play Revelations.

Tross2548d ago (Edited 2548d ago )

I very much did, but that only fills in the gap between the older titles and RE5. It doesn't explain what Jill has been up to since 5. I mean she had testing done on her afterwards but it should have been finished well before the present day.

Edit: It occurs to me you thought I was referring to just acknowledgement of Jill. I suppose she was acknowledged 5 years ago. I still want to find out what she's been up to since her last canon appearance, and I'm sick of seeing Chris carry on without her, especially since I'm more of a Jill fan than a Chris fan.

Lord_Sloth2548d ago

@Tross I can understand that. I'd like to see more of the cast as well and I'm all for more Jill.

TheOttomatic912548d ago

I believe @Lord_Sloth is actually referring to Revelations 2 where Jill is a major and playable character, although I too would like to see more of her (and personally Ada) but with the direction 7 is going we will probably have all the older characters in background roles whilst the newer and more inexperienced character will be at the forefront

Tross2548d ago

That was indeed Claire, who we had to wait a good 14 years to see again, all because Capcom made up some BS excuse that her story arc was over while they had no problem making up a new arc for Leon. Maybe Capcom just has something against its female cast. At least we finally got a good game starring Claire, but here's hoping Jill isn't the new Claire. I can buy the older cast being placed in the background if the male cast are too...and we get a proper completion of their arc.

TheOttomatic912548d ago (Edited 2548d ago )

@Tross and @Lord_Sloth Oh shit you guys are both right it WAS Claire, I guess you guys have a point about Jill not being in enough material since I mixed up her and Claire lol.

On a more serious note Tross I'm not sure what resentment you have to Capcom for not using classic female characters in 7 (I hope your not an SJW) keep in mind Leon is just as big as Chris in the RE series yet he was not once mentioned in 7 nor was Jake or Barry and so on. I think Capcom wants to focus on civilian protagonists and whilst we may see more of the older characters in future titles they will only be in cameos and I think we will see less and less of Chris and others as the series goes on

lunatic00012548d ago

What I still don't understand is his look...with the upcoming cgi film and mvc game...why not implement his new look to show that this is the new look for Chris going forward...maybe it's just me but it's annoying and weird especially when the new movie is canon

pietro12122548d ago

I think it might just be different character designs and art directiin between the projects. The art style from RE7 is pretty different than RE 4,5, 6 and the CGI movie's.

lunatic00012548d ago

Yeah...no doubt it has a different art direction...just my problem is how capcom did not at least try to implement his new look in the movie since they have said its canon...having his look from re5 in the movie just adds confusion especially if Chris has a huge role in main games and cgi movies going forward

AntiZeal0t2548d ago

They used photogrammetry for RE7, so it was much easier to use a real person for the game.

VsAssassin2548d ago

I agree with lunatic0001. I can understand the different art style in MvC: Infinite, but not in the new RE CG movie--which Capcom says is canon. So if that CG movie is canon, and RE7 IS canon as well, why have two version of Chris?

Digital-Devil2548d ago

Capcom will SELL you the new Chris design as DLC for MvC:I.

lunatic00012548d ago

Haha...I honestly would not doubt it...it's capcom afterall

Damn that was alot of info to take in but ultimately what I gathered from that was Red vs Blue, I wonder if anyone at Capcom is a fan of Rooster Teeth?
