Funny you say that while I was looking for the remake of RE1 on Cube, all I could find was ZEE-ROW.

Yes, same here. I could barely read half the text the game levels load so fast.

I am really, really disappointed overall. It has flashes of greatness but ultimately remains in RE4's shadow. The later section of the game is essentially a cut and paste of the island section of RE4 with a tacked on cover system.
Pretty much every boss fight is dull as dishwater: go to turret A, initiate cut-scene B apart from the final boss which is just an exercise in frustration and bad game design.
I waited 4 years for this?
You fail at enjoying good games.
For me the boss fights were the highlight of the game. They were all executed at a very very high standard.

Well I finally found the remake at my local Gamestop one day, someone traded it in while I was in the store. Got lucky. But I guarantee now that if I went out looking for Zero, I couldn't find it, since I'd be trying to find it.

Ah yes, the kid of small differences that fall under who gives a flying fuck.
I'm getting the collector's edition PS3 and co-op online with a friend and grab the PC version if my e-penis needs to be stroked down the line.
Ah shit. Is it just me or do you guys find yourselves having barely enough ammo to go by? Current stuck in the following part and was wondering if you guys could help me out
Currently at the chapter where you move around in the hovercraft. Just placed the four plates on the door and moved onto the next area. How the hell do you defeat the tall zombie with the masks and the large mace? Pumped 6 magnum bullets into their bodies and they still don't fall

When you have the dollars to spend on marketing, and you use them, you get results.HomerSimpson-Man said:
Congrats to Capcom.

Congrats to Capcom.
More likely the fact that they didn't place it on a bomba platform (RE4 on Gamecube).
Marketing dollars poured into Blue Dragon, SO4, Tales of Vesperia and Last Remnant didn't make them big hits.

You're probably already aware of it, but just to make sure, don't hit them at the mask. The mask is armoured and will deal no damage. Aim at their legs. I personally found grenades and the sniper rifle to be useful against them. I'm surprised 6 magnum shots didn't drop him, I can't remember they would take that much damage.
If you have REALLY bad ammunition shortage you could just chicken out and replay one of the earlier chapters. For instance chapter 1-1 is very short and you'll get a ton of handgun and MG ammo from the assembly place level.

I think he was talking about RE4GCN versus RE4PS2, whereas you are/were talking about RE5 versus RE4 (all platforms). :lolDuck Amuck said:

I kid, I like Bale, just... when he was trying to act alongside Gary Oldman and Aaron Eckhart in TDK he was failing pretty hard.
He WOULD make a good Chris though.

Himuro is saying RE5 outsold RE4PS2 which makes the theory that RE5 only outsold RE4 because RE4 was never on a successful platform faulty.HomerSimpson-Man said:

My complete time was roughly 27 hours, with some grinding. If you steam roll through probably could get it down to 10-15hours. But after the constant grind of the weapons is yum!
Co-op and single player equipment and money is brought over thro and fro, this is probably the first RE game I'm going to try upgrade all the weapons! WOOT!

My internet finally lasted long enough for me to beat this game. Overall, I enjoyed the experience, but I can't help but fill just a tad bit of disappointment with the package. It's partially my fault for expecting out of this world greatness.
Now I'm gonna wait till some of my friends get it before I do a veteran run. Normal was just way too easy, I really shouldn't have started off on it, but when I realized it was gonna be like that, I was already halfway through the game. The only thing you can do to die on normal is **MASSIVE GAME RUINING SPOILERS SERIOUSLY**
There are absolutely zero scares in this game. at least with RE4 you have those regenerators that were creepy as balls, but this game has none of that; it doesn't even pretend to be a horror game anymore, really. No jump scares, no creepy shit, no nothing. The most you get is a silent corridor with some mutilated loser on the floor, but they really don't do anything with it. The only part that made mo panic was for a split second was in the demo, but I played that shit to death so when it came to the actual game, the chainsaw guy got fucking destroyed. Me saying this crap means something as I am huge fucking pussy when it comes to creepy shit(can't even play silent hill)

The main characters are exquisitely detailed in gameplay and you only see half of them from the back the majority of the game, who cares. Cutscenes are their time to shine in directing effects and visual design.

Yeah, the character models in general, from what I've seen, are basically the best character models in any console game. They're astounding, really.HomerSimpson-Man said:
Besides camera angles and specific lighting I'm not convinced cutscenes do look better. I've been stepframing through some random footage I took from the game, and cutscenes and ingame looks pretty much the same quality.
Here's one random screenshot I took from the game: (it shows a secret character, so it's a bit of a spoiler. sorry, but it was one of the few screencaps I had available)

I'd say that the character detail and lighting is easily just as good as that you've seen in cutscenes.

In between chapters there's an item box, where you can store a LOT of items. At the start of each chapter you can choose what items you want to fit yourself out with.alexel said:
