Resident Evil 5 and RE6 Will Be Very Different Remakes, If They Happen

Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6 would present the most challenges in a modern reimagining due to how drastic gameplay changes would need to be.

Good.

Keep them single player and focused on horror, I couldn't care less if it meant changing the story a bit

I just don't see why Capcom would make the same mistake twice, remake RE4, its fantastic, then do RE5 which adds co-op, removes the scares and ups the action again. They can't be that stupid

RE5 is a decent co-op game but a shit Resident Evil game

After the complaints of "baby sitting" Ashley in RE4, what made them think single player lovers would enjoy looking after an AI full time.

gold_drake858d ago

i mean, its your opinion, but in 5, i never had to look after Sheva.

and its pretty dope in co op.

6 is trash tho, i agree

-Foxtrot858d ago

I didn't say it wasn't my opinion

Point is you did have to look after her as the AI was shit

You had to spare ammo or health kits to revive her

She pointed out enemies by shooting at them which ruined the suspense and horror vibes

It made it a terrible RE game and co-op ruined that, as soon as they added it the series went down hill.

gold_drake858d ago

again, your opinion.

i played the game atleast 10 times or more, but what do i know haha.

CorndogBurglar857d ago

That's your opinion too....

Playing a game 10 times doesn't make your opinion any more right or wrong.

GoodGuy09860d ago

Hope so. 6 especially needs a.....redo lol.

RaidenBlack859d ago

No more Remakes after 4, please ...
Invest in Remake efforts for only the best of the bunch .... the one which deserves .... don't keep churning out Remakes for all titles ... especially not titles like RE6.
We need newer fresh games ... sequels and new IPs.
Out of the recent 5 AAA RE games ... 3 are remakes.

FallenAngel1984859d ago

Resident Evil 2 & 3 didn’t take any resources away from RE8.

They have enough devs to provide both routes

RaidenBlack859d ago

You ignored the earlier statements and only focused on the last one.
Do you really want Remake of RE6? Or Remake of other Capcom's poorly executed titles?

FallenAngel1984859d ago

Why not? Capcom can improve on the game in various ways with a remake

858d ago
Yui_Suzumiya859d ago

Well I'd at least enjoy a Code Veronica remake

jeromeface858d ago

code veronica def deserves a remake before 5 or 6, for sure

babadivad858d ago (Edited 858d ago )

@Jerome

Code Veronica deserves one before 4. It's canonically the next game in the time line. RE 1, 3, 2, Code V, 4.

ChiefofLoliPolice792d ago

Yeah speak for yourself. I'm all for remakes of 5 and 6 of it comes to it. As long as they do it right... I'm all for it.

ZeekQuattro859d ago

It seems like theses a RE 6 related article every other week. What in the world is going on? lol

MrGameAndWatch859d ago

I would say yes to a RE 5 full coop instead of that dumb AI. Im not sure I want to play RE6 again.

CrimsonWing69859d ago

Isn’t RE5 already “full co-op”?

-Foxtrot858d ago

I think he means like It Takes Two where you have to have someone play with you

If that's the case...F*** THAT

The co-op needs removed so it can be like what it was originally going to be

persona4chie859d ago (Edited 859d ago )

RE5 is fully coop. I played through it a shit ton back on PS3 with a friend of mine, and again a few years ago on PC. Edit: actually I take that back, if I remember correctly there were brief segments were the ai did take over. But honestly I might be wrong.

Oh….wow, RE6 huh….urm, cool, just what we always wanted.

1Victor115d ago

EW
NOOOOOOOOOO
In what mind make sense to do this with the worse game on the series 🤦🏿

DivineHand125115d ago

I loved Resident Evil 4 back in the day and enjoyed Resident Evil 5 even though I had to do co-op to beat the final boss. Shiva was just too dumb.

Resident Evil 6 on the other hand, was so bad that I stopped playing after an hour in the game. That was before I even played any high-quality single-player games outside of Mass Effect, Portal, and Skyrim. I can't imagine playing RE6 now.

Chances are their next remake will be 5.

Profchaos115d ago

I just don't get why it's already on the platforms via BC unless it's a remake which would piss everyone off as fans are hoping for either the original game or code veronica to get the remake treatment

CrimsonWing69115d ago

Isn’t it already backwards compatible?

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.

TheBrainZ435d ago

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

Knightofelemia435d 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.

thesoftware730435d ago (Edited 435d 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.

CrimsonWing69435d 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_A5HL3Y435d 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

-Foxtrot435d ago (Edited 435d 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.

franwex435d 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_A5HL3Y434d 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.

RNTody409d ago (Edited 409d 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.
