360 version will be better, just like Tekken 6 360 version will be better, just like every multiplat 360 version is better.

Not that I want to even treat you like a human being, but you should read the latest interview with the Tekken devs. You are an uneducated waste of life.

Jerk1205336d ago

They're just saying that so the sony fangirls don't go all ''OMG TRAITORS!!'' on their ass like they did to Square.

When the game is released you will see that the 360 version is the definite superior one.

Pennywise5336d ago

You are so stupid. The guy said... Tekken6 was built from the ground up to utilize the PS3 powers so making it as good of quality on the 360 is going to be a very difficult challenge.

Jerk1205336d ago

That's just bullcrap they're feeding you with a spoon.

Just wait for it, Penny. When it actually comes out and you see the inferior with your own eyes remember that Sleipnir told you so.

Pennywise5336d ago

Tekken arcade machines have Ps3's inside of them. I'm sure if they thought the 360 was better they would of used xbox's. But then again, maybe they were stopped by the Fire Marshalls because of life safety issues.

I know you just want to get a rise out of people and spark the flame wars... But, its old and played out.

PS3 will always be the best, this game was ported to the 360 from the PS3, 360 better hell no, look at killzone 2, thats just 60% of the PS3 power, devs are already saying that the graphics dont get better than gears on the 360.
You'll see in the end the PS3 will come out on top just like it has, the past few decades...

M_Prime5336d ago

wow.. that was some tasty spam as well..

and what does KILLZONE 2 have to do with RE5..

RE5 looks great on both PS3 and 360... in the end its good people have a choice.. hell i played RE4 on GC..

RE was never a loyal brand thats for sure... PS had a few but they always made their rounds.. and trust me there will be good looking games on PS3 and 360.. but gameplay is where it really matters..

Why mention PS5 when talking about PS3

Magog118d ago

The load times in retrospect are unbearable but I did have hella fun playing couch co-op with my gf on the PS3 and PS2.

anast118d ago

Couch co-op is the best alternative.

Rynxie118d ago

Resistance 2 co-op was amazing! I wish they would remaster resistance 1-3 and killzone 1-3 for the PS5.

Why fans feel a Resident Evil 5 Remake might not be a good idea

Though CAPCOM has been hitting it out of the park with their Resident Evil remakes, fans are rightfully skeptical about RE:5.

I just think Capcom have finally got back on track survival horror wise and if they remake RE5 they will most likely make it a full blown co-op game again where they'd be repeating their mistakes with the original RE5.

The original RE4 came out and it was a universally praised game so when they announced a new one people thought they would add onto the good things RE4 brought in and maybe add a touch more horror as RE4 was more action like but still found a good balance. However RE5 didn't, they upped the action, got way more ridiculous and added co-op where if you played single plater you were forced to have a shitty AI follow you around and baby sit. It wasn't scary at all.

They even got rid of RE4s hub like areas (Village - Castle - Island) and had some sort of mission by mission gameplay where you could only buy/sell weapons at the end of the completed mission, it was very chapter select like. It just become so generic and action like, even the puzzles had been cut back, just replaced with a lot of "two people need to operate this, work together" moments which is not fun single player.

Also story wise, the fact we had Ada's betray at the end of RE4, something they doubled down on more in the remake where she decides to not give him the master plagas sample, we find out in RE5 that he has some form of it anyway, he just went to the Island himself and got a sample of Krausers body instead, you know the Island that blew up and most likely had Government officials crawling all over.

I'd prefer it if for the RE5 remake they go more off the RE4.5 concept art, change the story, keep it single player, deviate from canon and create a brand new RE5 featuring Barry, more Jill, Zombies, Tyrants etc like it was supposed to. If people really want co-op then ask for a Outbreak remake, its the perfect game for it.

RE5 is a good co-op game but it's a bad Resident Evil game

RaveTears129d ago

You should search up the history of RE5. It was originally a single player game that was more survival than action. But due to issue and controversy that Capcom had to make changes to RE5.

-Foxtrot129d ago

Oh trust me I know all about it which made me dislike the game more after I played it, like I said the RE4.5 concept art is a fantastic look inside the original version

https://www.relyonhorror.co...

Yeah the controversy really did shape the development. I mean picture this

The very first reveal trailer showed Chris in an African village, you had enemies coming at him and it pretty much set the game up like it was in the 4.5 info we have in the link above. This was 2005.

Then we had the whole backlash that a white man, in Africa was killing black civilians

2008 we get a new trailer, they have now added co-op and Sheva, a previous NPC character similar to Josh in the final product is now the second player, a main character.

I think it's safe to say they added her to try and downplay the racism controversy and they even added white / Asian enemies in the villages which made no sense. They were in villager clothing.

I do miss some of the survival elements they were going to add like sensitivity to sunlight or not staying in the sun far too long. Like if you rushed out a door and you had been inside for too long your screen would be blurred to adjust to the sunlight.

TallDarknWavy128d ago

If they're going to remake RE5, they should actually remake it completely and use the power of new hardware to take advantage of their original vision. We already have a remaster of RE5 and 6. Those are too recent to consider developing a remake this soon as they're only 2 generations old on PS3/360.
Co-Op takes all the fear out of the game as you now have a companion to always lean on. It takes the intensity and isolation away from the game. You need to feel like you're the last line of defense, that you won't have some companion always there to save your ass, it just takes away from any fear or intensity and you get frustrated with the shitty AI.

Man, I’m a massive old-school RE fan and I loved RE5. I will not understand the hate for that game while RE4 gets praised.

KicksnSnares129d ago (Edited 129d ago )

Based on the ending of the RE4 remake, it looks like the RE5 remake is the next game, which I’m excited about. RE5 is my favorite RE game, and I could care less about all the hate it gets

thesoftware730129d ago

Yes it's an awesome game, I still play Merc mode lol.

RE 5 is my 2nd favorite,
REmake 1 is my favorite, and still holds up well today.

lucian229129d ago

they really need to just make a couch co-op +online mercenaries only game with most of the cast and all the best maps of RE history. Would be amazing

thesoftware730128d ago

Lucian, absolutely !!!

But it has to be very very similar to Mercs in 5, just expand, don't change the gameplay much, QoL and tons of unlocks is all they need imo.

Revelations Merc was not good, and 8 mercs was fun but single player, same for the others.

lucian229127d ago

oh i think re4 remake merc is very good actually too; only part i enjoyed in 6 was really it's merc also lol. game would be so amazing just plain merc

TheEnigma313129d ago

It'll be better than 6, that's all i know. RE5 was actually good, but not a real RE game. With the whole woke thing nowadays, this won't be able to be in Africa like the original.

jambola129d ago

That's not true at all
It will just be invaded by white men
