Reinventing Resident Evil

"There is no doubt in my mind that RE5 has done more damage to the series than any previous release. Not even the failed GameCube deal (in which Capcom initially planned to make every Resident Evil sequel, prequel and remake exclusively for GameCube) hurt the series as much. Going forward, Capcom is going to have a hard time convincing gamers to return."

dont try to fix what isnt broken

Masamori Sumimura4934d ago

Feeling the same here. RE5 was a good game it could of been better if they actually had some scare elements in there. I think they'll get the new one right and make it more like the 4th.

DasBunker4934d ago (Edited 4934d ago )

ability to walk and shoot, better zombie AI, zombies, please dont give zombies machine guns or that crap, no cover system whats this gears of zombie outbreak?, darker/grittier setting..

is that so hard for you capcom? now dont get me started on your other franchises youre ruining.

btw RE5 was not good... please no forced co-op this time...

nix4934d ago

i wonder who disagreed with you, DasBunker...

what's with the ability to 'run and shoot'... i feel so handicapped. i'm somewhere in Chapter 3 but i just don't feel like progressing because the game just doesn't have anything to make me do that. i just bought this game for Move, though it works awesomely, i still think it's way too handicapped!

what i'd personally like to see is the game based on movie character. i would love to play as the 'woman in red dress'. she's so cool.

aCasualGamer4934d ago

Capcom have lost their minds. Seriously, giving away the great DMC series to Ninja Theory. Ninja Theory pretty much confirmed they are destroying the franchise from the trailer.

And recent rumors are that Capcom has given Resident Evil franchise to Slant at Canada (makers of socom) probably so they can create a Resident Evil game like Outbreak but have heavy focus on coop.

I don't know why Capcom is doing this.

Is it just to freakin' hard to bring us a natural classical RE game with harder puzzles, longer story, more Leon and classical zombies with SCARY elements put in like RE 1?

darkziosj4934d ago

i can say the same thing about old resident evil games, but whatever resident evil is just a mindless shooter now

BkaY4934d ago

and got a plat trophy in it... its coz i am re fan.. but i have to admit its a step back from my all time fav re game which is without a doubt RE:2

peace

psn : BkaY

Nihilism4934d ago

It's because of attitudes like yours that we have NO innovation whatsoever.

I don't care what they change, change everything, just make it good. Different =/= bad.

hatchimatchi4933d ago

um no. resident evil 5 is pure crap, in fact it was so bad that I don't really care when re6 comes out.

Dead Space and Fatal Frame are the only survival horror series that I care about at this point.

xilly4934d ago

Agreed. No reason why they should bastardize Resident Evil. RE5 is still fresh in people's minds, and it hasn't been shelved for a while like Devil May Cry has.

tlarn4934d ago

I really did, but I can see why people don't like it; it just doesn't have the feel of a Resident Evil. Sure, it has the biological monsters and mutants and Wesker and Chris Redfield and a few more whose mention would be spoiling the game, but there's something missing.

I wonder if people would like Resident Evil 5 if it was a spinoff or something else completely, rather than a primary installment.

Cevapi884934d ago

how about capcom caving in to media pressure that they were being racist because of black zombies...i cant believe that this became a legit claim for capcom to actually have the devs make more racially diverse zombies...and in the end they decided to play it safe IMO and not do anything over the top which RE games are known for

p_weezy4154934d ago

You made a lot of good suggestions, but if they did decide to go to any of your routes, I think it would totally change RE making it not RE anymore. Resident Evil 5 was a different spin on the series and had awesome graphics, but I think that's what the series needed. RE4 was a change of pace also and I think Capcom has become a pro on adding changes slowly and at the right time. I trust them and do not they have done the RE story any hamr. Change can be a good thing, but not drastic or unecessary changes. =)

alee4934d ago

It's usually easier to be scared when your alone. It's a harder to make a game scary when it's multiplayer, and it might simply not make sense to do it.

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

Speak with your wallet!

Profchaos54d 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

crazyCoconuts54d 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.

Babadook754d ago (Edited 54d 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.

phoenixwing54d ago (Edited 54d ago )

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

mudakoshaka54d ago

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

phoenixwing54d ago (Edited 54d 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

mudakoshaka54d 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!

TheEroica53d ago (Edited 53d 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.

Neonridr54d ago

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

NotoriousWhiz54d 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.

Profchaos54d 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

MIDGETonSTILTS1754d 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.

talocaca54d ago

I have most of them 😅

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