^^What the hell is wrong with people like you? Seriously?

miyamoto4642d ago

Biohazard 6 on PS Vita!
now were talking! Whatever happened to Biohazard Portable?

zeeshan4642d ago (Edited 4642d ago )

After Re5 came out, I remember that there was this news of RE6. That it would take them like 8 years to make it. Well, I guess it was all a bunch of BS. I hope they go back to their RE2 roots. And please, no co op.

Kurt Russell4642d ago

Although Res 5 was the worst I've played in the series, I still really enjoyed it - especially the co-op.

Eamon4642d ago

Firstly, LESS FOCUS ON TPS AND MORE ON HORROR.

Secondly, no focus on co-op or multiplayer. Put all resources into a pure scary and thrilling Resident Evil experience with horror levels similar to RE1 and RE2. I don't mind if it continues with RE4's third person perspective but it needs the RE1&2 style horror.

Thirdly, Please no Chris Redfield. I've gotten tired of his appearance everywhere. What happened to Leon? Please bring him back as the protagonist.

Fourthly, bring back the puzzles and exploration of RE1 and RE2 where just the thought of having to explore the research labs for ingredients in RE1 put chills down our spines or having to find that girl in RE2 fearing some crazed lizard man would suddenly appear and chop our heads off would make us shit ourselves.

Lastly, no goofy story.

alien6264642d ago

they should make a new Outbreak i miss that series :(

rjdofu4641d ago

From the site:

"UPDATE - Despite early morning confirmations from a representative from Capcom Japan that the trailer posted above was being shown in the company's closed theatre at the Tokyo Game Show, sources have since told us that this trailer is not real."

So people don't have to waste their time clicking on that site anymore.

sobekflakmonkey4641d ago

I dont mind Co-op and multi-player, that is when its completely separate from the main story, like if they made the main single player story its own single thing, with actual puzzle solving and all the good stuff from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd RE games and then threw in a co-operative mode for online where you play with 3 friends that had nothing to do really with the original story but was a story of its own (kinda like RE:O), I would be happy, and bring back mercenaries obviously, that would be the best RE game EVERR.

But that being said im still excited for Operation Raccoon city, shooting zombies is always fun, especially with your friends :)

1. Go back to RE1,2,3 camera angles.

2. Limit the ammunition drastically.

3. No co-op.

4. Bring back creepy piano music from old RE games

5. Create a "fear system". Depending on how a situation is approached, your character will be more scared or less scared. If the character gets too scared, it could paralyze him/her...he/she can even die of fright.

This could affect gameplay by making your character shake uncontrollably...throwing off your aim. You'd have to go into a safe room and read a nudie mag to calm down or something lol.

BlindGuardian4642d ago

I'm not sure about the camera angles

LOGICWINS4642d ago (Edited 4642d ago )

The old RE camera angles could be game breaking if it stops you from seeing an approaching zombie, but if done right it could make the game scarier.

Lets say hypothetically speaking that RE6 is primarily a stealth game. Most of the world is controlled by Nemesises and you are one of the few humans on earth that illegally live outside of Umbrellas containment camps.

To get to point A to B, you need to stealthly evade Nemesises. It would be cool if the camera opened up wide enough so the player could see a Nemesis on a rooftop but you could also see your character trying to get through the guarded area at the same time.

If you make the slightest noise, you alert the Nemesis, he spots you and he kills you in a different gruesome way everytime. Sometimes you get killed slow and sometimes you get killed fast....it depends on the enemy.

RE6 NEEDS to give the player a sense of hopelessness and bring about the reality that the odds are against you. It should be made so that its IMPOSSIBLE to kill all the enemies in the game.

J-Killer154642d ago

Yeah I agree with BlindGuardian. If having a bad camera angle is needed to make the game scarier then something isn't right. If Capcom can somehow make a game that resembles the "Hook-Man" version of RE4 then maybe we'll finally have a good RE after 6 years.

pipipi4642d ago (Edited 4642d ago )

man thats an awesome list, but i think RE6 will be better than RE5 because that stupid JUN TAKEUCHI is not involved in the project wooohooo
i hope seriously NO CO-OP!! but the camera angles... well maybe sometimes, i prefer a SILENT HILL 3 camera type which is the same as SH2 LOL, i bet it will be release fall 2013 or early 2014, long long wait, but meanwhile we can sing:

Dovahkiin Dovahkiin
Naal ok zin los vahriin

BTW RESIDENT EVIL 4 WAS THE SHIT!!!!!!! bring back the wolves and a verdugo esque creature!!!

SOD_Delta4642d ago (Edited 4642d ago )

The thing about being scared is that of all the RE vet characters are experienced at fighting Zombies/B.O.W's. I mean it would be silly for them to start being scared of the things they have been fighting for years.

The only way it would make sense is if they brought in new characters and I don't see that happening. It is a good idea for a spin-off though.

GunofthePatriots4642d ago

fear system sounds interesting but you lost me at "dies of fear".

LOGICWINS4642d ago (Edited 4642d ago )

"The only way it would make sense is if they brought in new characters and I don't see that happening."

EXACTLY. That should be the plan for RE6..whats scarier than being an average person in a desperate situation that requires extraordinary talents?

Most of the game will be a frightening/satisfying journey to a certain locale. THEN, you meet up with Barry, Chris, Claire etc. and then you all work together to blow up the last traces of the virus or something.

Or, even better, you meet with Barry and Chris early on in the game and they teach you how to fight. Throughout the game you slowly build up your skills.

SOD_Delta4642d ago (Edited 4642d ago )

@ #1.2.7 LOGICWINS That's not a bad idea. We'll just have to wait and see. I personally hope co-op comes back. I mean its defiantly possible to make a "Scary" Co-op game.

"Or, even better, you meet with Barry and Chris early on in the game and they teach you how to fight. Throughout the game you slowly build up your skills."

Are you still talking about RE6? Sounds like a Apocalyptic RPG?.... Which would be sweet. I've always wanted a game like that. Something between L4D and Fallout.

Kos-Mos4642d ago

Yes, it`s lovely not being in control of your character. Where`s your logic?

Disccordia4642d ago

You know the reason why capcom made all those changes for re4 was because everyone at the time said the formula was getting boring. Have you tried to play mgs and mgs2 recently? Static cameras would really be a step backwards!

Gamer19824642d ago

Nah going back to old game styles doesn't work games have evolved now and going back to old styles hurts games development as much as we liked the old games they were great because of nostalgia now do you really want that ruining? They can do it like RE5 just make it more scarier simple as. As for limited ammo even RE2 and 3 had unlimited ammo.

DigitalAnalog4642d ago

Here's the thing about those "camera" angles: Shinji stated that the technology was not capable to control the camera (with his vision) at that time. However, being the genius that he is - took a disadvantage and propagating it to become one of the most iconic horror intensities of all time.

I remember the time the dog jumped out through the window. Perfect angle, perfect subtlety, Biohazard is nothing without him.

-End statement

Kurylo3d4642d ago (Edited 4642d ago )

fear system? which makes them shake or even have a heart attack and die? So your saying you want your character to be a pussy. Right....

Its one thing for u to jump when YOU get scared in real life, but an artificial fear thing is not actually fear lol... Its a way to hinder the game play and make the character a coward.

BABY-JEDI4641d ago

I like the old Hitchcock camera angles but these could be used to set the scene. I would also like to see limbs being shot off of zombies (cause I'm sick) & this would add a strategic edge to gameplay. Also can we have people freaking out as there is flesh eating zombies please. Also NO CO-OP or steroids

Lord_Sloth4641d ago

1. Make it optional to please both crowds!

2. Stop picking up so much ammo if you don't want it so badly!

3. Make it optional to please both crowds.

4. Give us custom soundtracks instead.

5. That's just dumb. I don't want to die because my character's a coward.

Lets just hope its scary this time 'round.

Ryo-Hazuki4642d ago (Edited 4642d ago )

Please return back to there roots. Horror needs to return and ditch co-op. Its not meant for a core RE title.
Also need to limit all the ammo you can pick up if its going to be a true re survival horror game. I also think they should consider bringing back fixed camera angles but that doesnt bother me.

Tanir4642d ago

true, i adored the coop, especially my fiance. but they should keep that to side games not core games of the series.

Leon and jill meeting up for the first time is awesome, though really wish claire was the main character in this, i miss her

Grip4642d ago (Edited 4642d ago )

the co-op are not the problem. the problem is how the hell u well be scared when some zombie shoot at u with Ak-47 or ride bike????

Tanir4642d ago

LMAO!!!! grip so true! that crap was retarded.

i mean i have never been scared in any game, whether it be silent hill, dead space or resident evil, but i can see the complaints and overall atmosphere haha.

that gun wielding zombie crap was hilarious.

Eske4642d ago

Agreed. For most of RE5, you could almost forget that the enemies were supposed to be infected.

Finger-Eater4642d ago

Please no co op, i want to play alone.

Kamikaze1354642d ago

If they do include co-op, I hope it's a different mode and story.

Lord_Sloth4641d ago

I loved the co-op idea but it needs to be worked closer to what Dead Rising has to please every1. Drop in and while you're playing alone, there's no AI partner to assist you.

TaxExemption 4642d ago

I just googled the coordinates and they end up in Thunder Bay Canada. That's pretty weird

Pozzle4642d ago

At least its not right in the middle of Africa. I don't know what Capcom were thinking there. "Hey guys, let's get the brightest most un-RE type of setting we can find! Outback Australia? Nah, not enough volcanoes. The middle of Africa? Perfect!"

Wintersun6164642d ago

They should bring it to a place like Finland's Lapland, during winter, when there's no sun in sight for like 2 months and it's -40 degrees. Actually, that would be a great idea! The cold would add another dimension to survival.

EliteF504642d ago

Would make sense. Snowflakes and all that.

Resident Evil Zero and Code Veronica Remakes are reportedly in the works, not Resident Evil 1

Industry insider Dusk Golem reveals that there is no Resident Evil 1 Remake in the works. Instead, Capcom are reportedly in active development of Resident Evil Zero and Code Veronica.

-Foxtrot4d ago

RE Zero would be better to do first over RE1 because they can tie the story into RE1 more.

The original RE Remake was weird because Rebecca never mentioned anything about what happened in Zero and it felt so disjointed because Zero was developed during the Remake and they clearly didn't share any notes with one another.

Cacabunga3d ago

Wise decision. 2 of my favorites!

repsahj3d ago

RE Zero is one of my favorite game on gamecube!

Knightofelemia4d ago

Give me Dino Crisis dammit Capcom

TGG_overlord3d ago

And all it took was +24 years + a phone call from me lol.

GotGame8183d ago

LOL! A phone call from you? ROFL! They have been remaking RE games for YEARS! It was a matter of time!

Stellar Blade has sold more physical copies than Dragon's Dogma 2 in Japan, despite PS5 exclusivity

By the looks of it, PlayStation 5 exclusivity does not hurt the sales of Stellar Blade in Japan as the game has passed 90,000 sold physical copies.

Hugodastrevas7d ago

Stellar Blade really deserves way more praise than it got, devs have been adding more and more content, for free, since release and the game already was great to begin with!

BrettAwesome7d ago

More than it got? It got tons, by everyone except the sad wankers who's idea of a sex life, is pulling on their dicks while watching big fake cgi titties 😂

gerbintosh7d ago

Don't see the difference between cgi titties and fake boobs. Also no difference to wanking it to either one of them since both aren't physically there

RiseNShine7d ago

Salty that the game is doing well hm? ;) I suggest some cheese with your whine.

Skuletor6d ago

So you're saying the people that like watching CGI tits didn't praise the game? An educated guess is you meant the opposite.

BrettAwesome6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

@Risenwhine
What the fuck are you talking about? I think it looks like an awesome game. I don't get the sentiment that it didn't get as much praise as it deserved. The only ones who's been shit talking it, are sad wankers with no sex life. Am I whining? How? 😂

Cacabunga7d ago

I think we can safely claim that Stellar Blade 2 is confirmed!
I got it day one, i have some backlog due to RDR2 i just platinumed.. i will get to Stellar Blade in the near future

shinoff21837d ago

Same but I'm hitting yakuza right now. Stellar blade looks cool though.

neutralgamer19927d ago

Capcom really dropped the ball with DG2. They had easy success on their hand but instead with their stupid decisions ruined the games success

Stellar blade is an amazing game and deserves all the success. For all the artificial hate it got from people who had no interest in the game to begin with this shows if you make a good game it will sell. The so called 1st party drought from PlayStation has meant 4 exclusives in 2024 so far. Other companies need to learn how to run a business and plan for the future

H97d ago

Stellar blade is performing very impressively there, DD2 didn't do well because word of mouth destroyed it's reputation and not about the Microtransactions or performance, bad word of mouth about how the game lacks so many things that were in the first one

Redemption-647d ago

DS2 sold 2.5M in a little over a week, what the hell are you talking about?

H97d ago

"there", that's Japan, this article is about Japan, the bad word of mouth is about Japan

Hereandthere7d ago

Exclusives matter. No matter what bumbling phil and bond try to say, exclusives is why you buy a console.

The_Hooligan7d ago

How dare you speak common sense!!??

jznrpg7d ago

It would if they added a lot more combat and didn’t focus on graphics

XiNatsuDragnel7d ago

Stellar blade is great excited for 2

anast7d ago

They dropped the ball with dogma. SB is a solid game, it just had to weather the social storm.

shinoff21837d ago (Edited 7d ago )

Said that dd2 was missing things the first one did,like mass effect 2? I haven't played it so I'm really asking.

spss117d ago

I've played both and I have no idea what people say when they claim it's "incomplete". I've only noticed new things in comparison to DD1 (I would give a list but spoilers). Sometimes I wonder if some people actually played DD1 or maybe they remember it differently. Anyways, if you liked the first one and want more of that, you'll probably like DD2.

anast6d ago

Yeah, the content, combat movement is slower, less vocations, the armor system, it's more simplified, and dungeons are lacking. It's like they rushed it out or something, but didn't forget to add in youtuber pawns and micros. At least ME 2 upped the content.

Resident Evil 1 Remake To Have Slower Pace; Will Further Expand On The Game's Lore

Many details for the upcoming rumored Resident Evil 1 remake have already leaked online. Capcom appears to have huge ambitions for it.

XiNatsuDragnel13d ago

Sounds interesting I'll be interested in the second remake of re1

Cacabunga13d ago

They game cube remake was mind blowing.. another remake would be nice but i was really hoping for Code Veronica first

-Foxtrot12d ago

If it's true they are probably leading up to RE5 with the Chris vs Wesker story

RE1, CV and then RE5

Terry_B12d ago

Their REmake is still one of the best 3 video game remakes ever made.

Cacabunga12d ago

Terry

Zero was not a remake but an amazing game as well. I hope they remake that one one day with some coop play.. great great game

maelstromb12d ago

The whole Lisa Trevor side-story was an incredible addition and really fleshed out more of the lore. It could have easily felt tacked on to artificially extend the length of the game, but it felt 'right' like it should have been in there from the beginning. I'm hoping they include that in the Re-remake.

Yui_Suzumiya12d ago

Code Veronica definitely needs it the most!

Cant wait until they cut the basement section and replace it with something worse.

Becuzisaid13d ago

While I want another modern remake of 1, I think code Veronica should be first. The first re1 remake holds up amazingly well. Give CV it's due.

Scissorman13d ago

As long as the Crimson Heads are back.

Nerdmaster12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

I hope they don't. They were created mainly to justify Wesker not really dying, and they do create more tension, but they don't make much sense.
Re-reviving things that were twice dead? Why would the virus stop there and not keep reviving them forever (until the head gets destroyed)?
And also the characters knowing that destroying their heads keep them from becoming crimson heads, while having a combat knife and lots of heavy objects around to do it while they're down, but having to rely on lucky shots or burning them with oil?
They can create other stuff that serves the same purpose of creating tension but that makes more sense.

Levii_9213d ago

Come on State of Play already!!!
