and throw away all the "action game crap" from RE5.
that game (along with GTA4) are 2 of my all-time gaming disappointments.

and before it starts: this has NOTHING to do with which versions of either game it is.........360 or ps3 - they're the same disappointing games.

SixTwoTwo5392d ago

I hope they do bring back the horror elements. But I have a bad feeling that Capcom will go the other direction and make it much more action oriented like COD and Gears.

badz1495392d ago

and most fans will be happy! the tank-like control is maybe a non-issue considering RE games was always using that control before but in 5, there is no horror! not even close to compare with the like of Dead Space or even Silent Hill home coming. (although the later is not that great but still clinching to the roots of horror!)

narked5392d ago

bring back the basic games to life. give us the old camera, the ZOMBIES not stupid diseased monsters from re4 and re5. and bring back nemesis and the lickers back ^^

Syronicus5392d ago

And have been playing the originals on the GameCube recently. And to be honest, RE:Zero, Nemesis and the RE one remake are true to the series and are awesome. This RE5 stuff is crap. I even wonder why I loved RE4 so much. RE4 was good but it started the RE games down the wrong path. They need to get back to the scary stuff and less action shooting. Item management Capcom, that is where it is at.

Cwalat5392d ago

They really dissapointed me with RE5, all the crap about "We are bringing horror into daylight and we will still keep the RE feel of the older games"...

I remember reading that in an article back in 08.

Oh well, i truly hope the RE reboot won't dissapoint... because that would withou a doubt kill the franchise for me.

himdeel5392d ago

...RE5 was decent but as far as horror games go Dead Space and Siren:BC are the next gen heralds of this genre on the console side and I hope to one day see RE returning to their roots.

Raptor5391d ago

ITS JUST NOT A RESIDENT EVIL GAME WHEN THE ZOMBIES ARE USING DYNAMITE, CROSSBOWS AND MACHINE GUNS AGAINST YOU.

Seriously, Zombie snipers?

Cmon Capcom.
Cmon.

Not another Mansion trash incident game AGAIN!?
HOW MANY TIMES WILL WE PLAY THAT MANSION AGAIN!???

The fact is, it's also a REBOOT!
Nothing new!

Well, if they are doing a reboot, it will be refreshing because they totally farked up the storyline!
Africa, uroboros, ganados, viruses/aids/diseases, tyrants all these bullsh man.

beavis4play5393d ago

and by "series reboot" i think they mean taking the game in a different direction - not redoing a previous game. (although i'd love to see RE2 done on this gen of systems)

ZOMBIEMAN15392d ago

actually reboot is about throwing away everything that has happened and restart from scratch while also changing things while still keep the story generally the same it's hard to explain but just think of Friday The 13th 2009 whenever they talk about a reboot . also what's wrong with the mansion it is were the original survival horror was located in i say lets go back to the mansion it's still a scary mansion

-chaz-5393d ago

All I know is that I want zombies back. Enough of those Ganados....

NaiNaiNai5392d ago

there were never zombies in RE, just animated corpses. Its all a virus thats it. when they start poping out of graves then there zombies.

funkycoldmedina5392d ago

Actually, zombies did pop out of graves in Re: DC, RE: CV and I think RE3 as well. Just saying. I actually grew tired of zombies and survival horror theme. It got exremely lame after Zero and RE3 with the boring tank controls and few enemies. I'm glad RE4 took the series in a new direction, but RE5 actually didn't quite live up to expectations for me. Like a lot of people say, whatever happened to the heat and sun affects in RE5. The loss of Shinji Mikami or whatever his name was a huge blow.

-chaz-5392d ago

@3.1

Umm...aren't animated corpses called zombies? In any event, whatever those creatures were called - in your anal retentive definition - in those first three games...that's what I want to see more of.

madjedi5392d ago (Edited 5392d ago )

@3 I agree

I miss blowing a zombie in half with a shotgun and it's still crawling on the ground coming for you, or blasting hordes of zombies and body parts flying off, ah the good times.

Maybe they will bring the reals zombies back, the slow, stupid, and endless at times hordes, of the first couple games. And do away with the lame ass matrix bosses that can take more damage than the first 4 or 5 bosses combined.

beavis4play5393d ago

does anyone (besides me) think a horror game along the lines of the story in the old movie "warning sign" sound good?...... a huge, multi-level defense plant that has a virus get away and infect the 100's (or 1000's) of people inside. players could play as one of those who don't get infected (this could be a good co-op game as well) and have multiple objectives (stay alive; find anti-toxin; uncover what the plant is really doing.....etc..)
i think it sounds fun. i was watching this recently and thinking that the RE franchise could head in this direction. forgo the mansion and africa. a large defense plant offers up lots of areas to explore, viral zombies to fight and conspiricies to uncover.

just a thought.

rukia_chan5392d ago

i hope not is like crap game r5 imo...

i want re series like of era of ps1.

The prevalence of parrying: Why is it so popular?

Parrying has been creeping into more games, with almost every high-profile title of the last few years featuring it in some way.  Why?

phoenixwing37d ago (Edited 37d ago )

i understand the authors frustration i'm not the best at parrying in games. not that i can't complete a game that requires it but it is a definite harder thing for me than other kinds of techniques in games. which might be the main reason it's so heavily added in games nowadays. want to make your game challenging without having to do a lot of work? just add a parry boss. (what i mean by parry boss is a boss you have to beat by parrying such that their attacks will kill you otherwise)

Dudeson37d ago (Edited 37d ago )

I always think it's fine as long as such games also have the roll/dodge panic button. But I understand the will to parry, it seems so cinematic in a fight when you pull it off.

I’d have taken a few of those out. Prefer Sonic over Sonic 2. Outrun should be in there. Maybe even Pong as millions of people had fun with that even if it was repetitive. Final Fight pipped any Streets of Rage game, although Streets of Rage had the better soundtrack. Too many to list l guess. To me, retro gaming is the 1980s, maybe going into early 1990s.

Popsicle40d ago

Agree that the generational gap is too broad to really make a strong list. Need to tighten the years a bit. Hard to compare Pac Man with N64 games.

If you're wanting more PSVR 2 support, you should probably buy all of these games.

Speak with your wallet!

Profchaos41d ago

Bit rich to have to buy games you don't want because you want Sony to support the expensive headset they sold us which cost as much as the console it runs on beyond paying third partys to support it.
Seriously in terms of first party we have horizon on day 1 and a gt 7 vr mode.

They seemingly have made little effort to support it beyond paying Capcom to make re games in VR or a second party studio to make firewall which was mismanaged.

I'm a day 1 psvr2 user and the only thing I'm excited for right now is PC support.

I commented recently this bespoke VR game development model we have right now clearly doesn't work

crazyCoconuts41d ago

On the one hand I feel like there's been plenty of smaller non-AAA games to play and occupy me as a supplement to my flat screen gaming.
But I agree that Sony has done nothing to elevate this beyond the niche it's in and into the mainstream where it would be economical to create AAA games for it.

Babadook740d ago (Edited 40d ago )

Most of these games are worth owning for most people; I own all but 2 of them in fact. So I agree with kevco33. I think you're crazy if you downplay this list quite frankly. Sony can't keep funding software if people don't buy any of it, the ball is squarely in OUR court.

Sony has spent a lot on 3rd party stuff this gen like RE.

phoenixwing41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

Saving up for the headset is my first hurdle. Let alone buying games I don't want lol

mudakoshaka40d ago

People downvoting you for not having enough finances...what a world we live in, haha

phoenixwing40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

@mudako
They feel affronted at the very thought that I don't plunk down 500 immediately lol I have a little over 900 games in my backlog I've been buying games instead of hardware ever since I got my PC and ps5. I just don't know if vr is really for me honestly. Every time I have a couple hundred allocated to video games it makes more sense to buy a bunch of flat games instead of vr ones

mudakoshaka41d ago

I have 9 out of these 10 games. I try to buy all the VR games I like to support the advancement of VR!

TheEroica40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

I spoke with my wallet after watching the first headset get weak support. Easy pass until Sony earns my money. Feel bad for those who parted with 500 bucks, falling for the hype that Sony was actually gonna support this thing.

I own 7 of these titles off the list, lol.

NotoriousWhiz41d ago

I'm trying to decide if it's worth holding onto my psvr 2. I enjoy what it has currently, but it seems unlikely to get anything else. Might be better off just waiting for something with more support if that ever comes.

Profchaos40d ago

As a fellow psvr2 owner the question seemingly comes down to do you own a PC.

I think I'm all in I have a habit to hold onto my systems anyhow I still have my psvr1 to hell I still have my NES.

But while it's still worth something yeah you could sell it and if Sony turns the ship around you should be able to buy another one for less than you soldmit for I feel like we won't see any fix for the headset for the next 2 years rumours show that Sony has no current first party VR games in active development after they closed London studios

The whole psvr2 situation has left me feeling a little burnt on PlayStation as a whole to be honest. The first psvr felt experimental but it was supported far more than this superior headset

MIDGETonSTILTS1741d ago

GT7 surprised me, because I hate racing games, but i poured 100 hours into it way too quickly.

I’m looking forward to the Metro VR game this year, and I hope that WW2 dogfighter game releases eventually.

talocaca41d ago

I have most of them 😅

Waiting for a sale on Synapse and Arizona Sunshine 2.....also Metro coming this year looks great.
