RE4 was pure genius!!

Why are they going back to the Umbrella based story from previous games with RE5?! I mean i like the idea, but the faster villagers were great, much better than zombies, y' now technically zombies are innocent. I wanna kill something evil!!

Definitely!
I LOVED that Resident Evil strayed from the tired Umbrella story and tried something different. I would have loved to see them continue down that path and maybe start to return to the Umbrella storyline in Resident Evil 6.

As basic enemies, the villagers and monks in Resident Evil 4 created a tense atmosphere that, to me, wasn' t present in the previous Resident Evil games... I mean there was literally NO place to run and hide from the villagers.. You could easily outrun zombies and then exit an area and be done with them until you had to return to that area. Not in Resident Evil 4 though, they' ll kick down the doors and climb ladders just to get ya! Smarter, Faster, and utilized teamwork.

Once i' d completed the main story twice, then Ada' s little adventure, i was forced to keep playing because of the addictiveness of the mercenaries game.

The chainsaw wielding, bag headed villagers were great. Dual bladed chainsaws that can kill you in a single swipe, ...great!

I hope the zombies in RE5 are much faster, and i hope not to see any tyrants or lickers. Just smart zombies that act along the lines of the enemies from RE4 would be just fine!

Bringing back Umbrella doesn' t necessary mean that we will see slow zombies again.
If you played the game you know that...

RE4 SPOILER



RE4 SPOILER


...Ada gets the " sample" which Umbrella probably will use to it' s benefits. So I think we' ll see the best of everything: Umbrella, Whisker (or whatever that creepy guy was called) and fast parasite-infested people. I' m a little worried though if Mikami isn' t working with RE5.
You know, those parasites spoken of in RE4 exists for real. They enter the nerv-systems of snails and force them to climb high which makes them get eaten by birds. This helps the parasite to reproduce and to take control of more brains. . There is a text in the game explaining this but I don' t think that many knows that there actually is such a creature for real. It would be cool if it mutated and really could take over humans. Just as they do with snails, they would force humans to only satisfy basics needs (such as feeding muahaha) and then reproduce in some way (Aliens anyone?)

Wesker!!!

RE5 will be great, that' s a given, and the video shows what appear to be fast looking zombies. But, zombies are still zombies. Capcom also said that it won' t follow on from where RE4, which i don' t quite understand seeing the reaction it got.

I' ve managed to whittle mine down to a top 3 list. (as opposed to a top 107)

Metal Gear Solid 3- For the amazing cinematography and storyline.
Fallout 2- For the setting.
Jak and Daxter- The quintessential platformer.

I think hunters , tyrants and lickers were cool - I want more of those sick fucks in my game:)

some freaks like that twisted girl from RE 1 remake (kind of Silent hill style) are a cool adition as well.

I have to say that the new main character looks so incredibly boring. He looks like the typical American action hero. Nothing like Leon at all. It would be fun if you started out as a total geek in the game but as the story progressed, you would become cooler.

RE5 look amazing,thank god it come to ps3/xbox360 so all fanboys can antipatice it with love :)

What is " antipatice it with love" ??? Sound wierd to me...

I' m just gonna look forward to it instead i think. Chris' s stubble with be polygonal!!!

RE5 is a direct continuation of the story from RE4. Looks to be set in Somalia (the video at least) or somewhere like that. The setting was inspired by Ridley Scott' s Black Hawk Down and Chris (it IS chris isn' t it?) is stranded after surviving a erm...helicopter crash (this is all official too).

Now, i didn' t enjoy it and only completed it once, but where was Chris supposed to be during Code Veronica. See, Claire (his sister) went looking for him and Leon was involved too but only appeared via a radio transmission (right?).

Are RE4 and RE5 actually set during the same timeline as Code Veronica?

The Outbreak games on PS2 are set during the same timeline as RE2 and RE3.

Are those any good (for a RE fan)? I ' m not sure if I should even bother.
