(Play Vault Asks:) What’s Wrong With Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City?

Play Vault: "Do you remember 1998? Capcom clearly do and they’re very keen to remind you about it as it was Resident Evil franchises’ heyday. Children across the world were being terrified by Resident Evil 2 and just when they thought it was safe to come out from under the covers Resident Evil 3: Nemesis would be out the following year. Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City is a throw back into this year and takes us back to the outbreak that happened in the series’ favourite punchbag Raccoon City.

Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City is a prime example of how to abuse a franchise because it’s fans will buy anything. I’ve seen fans on some forums defending this game to the hilt, while I think loyalty is a virtue there becomes a point where it is blind and idiotic. This is a terrible excuse for a game and I recommend you leave it out of your disk trays and save your money."

hmm.. I had high hopes for this game but alas...I guess I wait for RE6 now.

Man i got the game and it's great don't let these reviewing fools tell you not to buy it. If you're worried then buy it used from Gamestop and try it, if you don't like it you can bring it back and get full refund in 7 days. I got it new and i love it.

I think it's funny that if you defend the game(by saying it's fun) then you're a blind fanboy. But if you bash it( because you don't like it) then that's ok. The games not nearly as broken as some "journalists" would suggest - the online works, there's no collision issues, we've heard of no random lockups. So in reality I think the journalists are the blind followers this time around.

And if you've played online and didn't like it, you probably try to camp too much. This isn't cod, ya dig?

Nothings wrong with the idea of the game...just the way it was executed.

Slant Six is what's wrong with it.

Capcom is what's wrong with RE6 as they're making the games shooter instead of horror games now.

Behind AC: New Horizons, this is my 2nd most wanted game this year.
Until Capcom remade RE2, RE3: Nemesis on PS1 was my favourite RE game.

Tross1531d ago (Edited 1531d ago )

I do think it's easily one of the most underrated RE games. I'm looking forward to fending off REmake Nemesis, especially since I heard his appearances throughout the game will now be somewhat randomized.

Umbrella chronicles is still my favourite it was really cool going back and playing the classics with updated graphics.

Nerdmaster1531d ago

I would say I thought Darkside Chronicles was better mainly because 2, Code Veronica and 4 (kind of represented in the game by Leon and Krauser) are my favorite games. But the super shaky camera in Darkside really bothered me...

Late in the Game Review: 'Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City'

The Gamer's Ghost returns in this Late in the Game Review series to revisit Raccoon City. Did Slant Six Games' premier Resident Evil title hold up to the series' standards? Or was it rotten, like the very zombies spawned from Umbrella's dastardly research?

I actually thought this was a fun game. Was it great? No. But there were some very cool moments in the game.

Stand outs were taking on the Nemesis with a group and the Tyrant on the elevator.

AK911561d ago

One if the worst games I ever had the dishonor of playing I'm glad Capcom has rebounded to making quality games now even outside the RE series.
