Wasn't it Sega that developed Resident Evil: Code Veronica from the ground-up?

Paging CVXFREAK...



...but Sega? I don't think so...I'm leaning towards a Capcom Development Studio.

According to IGN's page (for Dreamcast):

Capcom Development Studio 4

 

[DaCocoBrova]

No.

 

[Miburou]

I'm not 100% sure, but I think he design was totally Capcom, while programming was done by some developer called NextTech or something (responsible for a couple of horrible Saturn and PS1 fighters).

 

[Spazbiohaz]

It was Capacom. ooooh the memory's, I went on vacation in mammoth and my girlfriend got so mad because all I did was play the import version the whole time. Man this game was great.

Leonardo DiCaprio we miss you, and so does Clarie.

 

[kgHavok23]

If I remember right, Sega did have some part in the development of the game.

 

[Baron Aloha]

Yes, it was developed by Sega but with Capcom's supervision.

 

[Koshiro]

Wow, that's aged quite a bit after looking at screens of RE4. Memory is rather rose-tinted.

 

[Miburou]

No, Sega had nothing to do with it IIRC.

[Kunai]

The game was developed by Sega/Nextech and Capcom.
Capcom probably made the story and design, while Nextech did the rest (sound, programming, etc).

and also a couple great genesis games! namely ranger-x, a graphically stunning mech shooter, and crusader of centy, a charming zelda clone.

Heh, sorry about that. I only knew about those fighters from GameFan. Well, Code Veronica turned out well, anyway.

I know it was reported to have been programmed by Sega at first, but I think it was proven on this forum that it was actually handled by NexTech, and Sega didn't have much to do with the game.

I never understood why this was considered a "side quest" to the series and not called "Resident Evil 4: Code Veronica". Maybe this is why... SEGA was involved!

 

[Virgin Wii]

C:V... otherwise known as the worst RE game ever. At least to me.

I think it was originally planned as resident evil 4, but later got changed.

And I don't know how anybody can consider this the worst RE.

In order of greatness

[Razoric]

put RE0 below part 3... that game was just lame.

 

[Virgin Wii]

Here's my list:

REmake
Resident Evil
Resident Evil 2
Resident Evil 3
Resident Evil 0
Resident Evil Code: Veronica

... the last two may be interchangeable, now that Razoric mentions it. 0 was pretty crappy. I couldn't even finish it.

Haven't played 4 yet.

 

[Great Wasabi Man]

Haven't played 4 yet I was going to get it at Assbackwards Circuit city but waiting on line to se if it's in to wait on line to pay for it to wait on the first line again to pick it up...they should pay me something for going through that crap...anywho

I like them all!!

 

[Schmo Florez]

Oh man Code Veronica is my most played game next to Tony Hawk 2. Ahh the memories. I was such a DC fanboy.

I remember when CV came out...

It was a big spending day for me. I walked out with RECV, MDK2, and Time Stalkers (bleh). I expected RECV to own them all, but MDK2 totally won that battle and became one of my favorite titles on the system.

"Hey did you play that Resident Evil Codename Veronica? Fuckin bad!"

:lol

 

[dark10x]

I was just browsing back over some old CV media and was shocked at just how far we've really come. Sometimes you forget just what kind of leaps were made.

 

[Saturnman]

The difference is mostly in the lighting, based on those pics.

Lighting and of course, better character models (and backgrounds).

Strange that only CV and 4 are the only ones to not use prerendered bgs.

My favorite RE iz 2. Remake iz cool, haven't tried 3, Zero, or CV yet. Plan to get 4 soon.

Don't forget Outbreak and to a lesser extent Dead Aim used realtime backgrounds.
