They did a poor job porting to the the PS3 X360, it appears with the X1 PS4 versions they cleaned up the jaggies, textures, lighting, so I preordered.

Darkwatchman3191d ago

The problem with the PS3/Xbox 360 remasters was they were HD ports of the ps2 version of resident evil 4 which had inferior lighting, textures, and effects to the GameCube version

FallenAngel19843191d ago

I guess because the GameCube version didn't have the Ada Wong missions

Darkwatchman3191d ago (Edited 3191d ago )

But then they could have done a simple thing...remaster the GameCube version's main game and include the ps2 version's assignment Ada missions and with the remaster, bring them up to snuff visually with the main game, but they went the lazy route instead

FallenAngel19843191d ago

Yeah but that's expecting even more effort from Capcom, and you know they'll put in the minamal amount of effort for profit

hiawa233190d ago (Edited 3188d ago )

The game played fine on the 360, my issue was the image quality. They should have cleaned up the jaggies, PS2 textures, lighting. Both PS3/x360 versions suffered from that.

Really? I've been wondering whether I should re-buy it on the PS3, seeing as I still have my PS2 copy (collector's steelbook at that!:D) already, and since it was one of those rare titles with widescreen support and a 60Hz option on the PS2, maybe I shouldn't bother with the PS3 version, I don't know, there doesn't seem to be a lot of improvements on the PS3 version, and I'm not even sure the extra content that was on the PS2 version made the jump on the PS3...?

ahh Resident Evil 4,,the biggest multiplatform whore

Darkwatchman3190d ago

Speaking of which, the only version of Rahman 2 I ever played was the 3ds version and it's apparently a port of what people consider generally the best version of the game(the dreamcast version), but the framerate on 3ds is a little spotty.

I was hoping after replaying it on the new 3ds with the better CPU that it would run better, but no :(

Master of Unlocking3191d ago (Edited 3191d ago )

You must be talking about "Paperboy", I think

Master of Unlocking3190d ago (Edited 3190d ago )

WHAT?! Dammit! Paperboy has to be one of the biggest multiplatform whore in history, before even The Chessmaster or Tetris! My statement was correct, why am I getting a disagree? Some irate Paperboy fan I suppose...? Yeah, Paperboy is probably going down in history as the filthiest whore, deal with it!

shadowfax333190d ago

i still remember when shinji mikami said he will would kill himself if the game ported to systems other than gamecube...no wounder he left capcom :P

filchron3191d ago

You would think they could add some new shit to it like 1080p 3D at 60FPS per eye or 3rd Person PSVR support (not all VR titles have to be in 1st person) since PS4 has about 40x the power of a PS2. I never even thought these new HD remasters brought anything good to the table when these current consoles have about 8x-16x more power than the previous gen(PS3 and 360) just to have like a 2x increase in resolution

CorndogBurglar3191d ago

Doesn't 3rd person kind of defeat the purpose of VR?

filchron3191d ago

No, theres a Zelda like game for Oculus thats a VR exclusive and is in third person. doesnt 4K kind of have no purpose in theres no depth and no new 4K textures?
any game could benefit from a 3D perspective and with the added power of the new consoles why the hell wouldnt anybody want that? a 2x rez increase is boring AF personally. You can tell the people who disagreed with my post are boring ass people with weak ocular muscles.

CorndogBurglar3190d ago

Well I didn't say a single word about 4K....but okay lol.

I was simply saying that the point of VR is to make an environment that feels like you are actually there. At least that is what most people think of it, I would have to think. I mean, it says as much right in the name, Virtual Reality.

If you can see your character it kind of takes away from that experience, considering no one can see themselves from a 3rd person perspective.....unless they have really strong ocular muscles I suppose.

filchron3190d ago

I dont want EVERY VR game to be in 1st person just like I dont like every game on a 2D screen to be in 1st person. THAT simple. Look up that 3rd person oculus VR zeldaish adventure title and tell me it still isnt more immersive that a first person game on a 2D screen. You wont be able to because it still looks amazing. People are gonna get tired of all 3D experiences being in 1st person. Im already sick of it and I havent even tried the damn thing on yet. Why not give
people the option if the processing power is clearly there???

CorndogBurglar3190d ago

You have a point. I dont mean to sound like you don't. I guess I just never really thought of VR in that way, and like I said before, most people probably haven't.

Skate-AK3191d ago

Wow. Almost double the filesize of the PS3 version. Might actually be some better AA and texture increases.

Ex-Naughty Dog Dev Says Resident Evil 4 Inspired Uncharted and Many More Action Games

Former Naughty Dog dev says Resident Evil 4 inspired Unchartted and even Gears of War, particularly the over-the-shoulder camera view.

CrimsonWing697d ago

It revolutionized third-person shooters, in a genius way that gives you full control of aiming.

CrimsonWing696d ago

No, I mean RE4. Like the whole snap to over-shoulder and precision aiming was what I meant.

I won’t deny Winback does pave the way in some respect. But it’s not the same at all.

InUrFoxHole7d ago

Both are great series. That's awesome

Samonuske7d ago

I thought this was common knowledge. Resident Evil Revolutionised over the shoulder aiming in 3rd person shooters/action games

italiangamer6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

Influenced basically every third person action game made after it, GTA uses the over the shoulder perspective when shooting since the 4th installment, Red Dead Redemption 1 & 2 too and the Batman Arkham series has the over the shoulder perspective as the main camera throughout the whole game series.
Obviously there are a ton more examples but you get the point 🗿.

Simon's Quest is better than Symphony.

djl348515d ago

If you're gonna troll, at least make a legitimate attempt.

Levii_9216d ago

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.

Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.

LG_Fox_Brazil15d ago

That's a pretty fucking great list

__y2jb15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.
