They were in western fucking Africa for Christ sake.
Not to mention Sheva and Josh heading up the mission with Chris, and the black guy not being the first to die.

In fact, the black guy being the only one of his whole crew to live.
And he didn't breakdance or play basketball or eat KFC to the best of my knowledge. Though I think there was a watermelon in one of the market stands. Goddamn Capcom racists.In fact, the black guy being the only one of his whole crew to live.
Still no Rebecca and Barry, sigh.
I get why the random partners for the games like Billy, Carlos, Sheva, etc, aren't going to be returning, but the two missing S.T.A.R.S members really bugs me. I mean, they put them in RE5's extra Mercenaries mode, so they know they're popular and fans want them back above all other missing characters (apart from maybe Sherry Birkin for some reason), so why not?
It's not like their story was finished or something, like Billy, they're going to be still going along alongside everyone else against Umbrella, Tricell, etc.
Whatever. I just posted how this thread ain't the place. If you feel so strongly, then feel free to make a thread where we can hash it out.
didn't the black guy set up the white people? i mean, that was implied, wasn't it?
No? Josh was almost one dimensionally good.

No thank you. You're perfectly within your rights to hold that silly opinion and the issue is years old anyway.
I'll take you up on the offer when RE6 is inevitably deemed racist in regards to the Chinese.

Seriously doubt that'll happen, but even if it did, and it actually was, if you can't see RE5s issues then you wouldn't see it there either. I should also point out that you're well within your rights to poke fun at my "silly" opinion as well, but as you can see it's almost totally derailed the thread already. Good job.
I look forward to watching you and another person play RE6 on youtube
You never know, they could still show up. Of course we dont know what role they might play...
And they'll return with mind control devices attached to their chests along with bleached hair and a crazy mask.Probably both them and Sherry Birkin get killed off offscreen during the intro.
You know, Capcom.

Anyone else notice that Chris' arms got smaller?

I think it's funny people call Resident Evil 5 racist, but no one calls Resident Evil 4 racist where your basically in Spain killing nothing but Spanish people. How is that any different from 5?

Guess he laid off the roids. However, he is still massive compared to some of the enemies and that camera man he pushes out of the way.Anyone else notice that Chris' arms got smaller?
The Spanish people aren't dressed up like conquistadors in the later levels.
not to get into this argument but this betrays a severe ignorance of stereotypical and racially charged imagery (i.e., Spainiards have not been traditionally stereotyped for hundreds of years by western civilization as a whole as mindless savages and evil monks)
also just for reference i don't think re5 is "overtly" racist with any kind of deliberateness or malice but at the same time i feel like a lot of people misinterpret n'gai's original point (about the imagery in a certain RE5 trailer, not the concept of an african setting itself) and also ignore the part where tribesmen get infected with plagas and thus turn "feral" by putting on grass skirts and war paint and start throwing spears

Wow, so we can finally shoot AND move? Good development, can't wait to hear more.

To be fair I defended RE5 as vigilantly as these folks until the game was released. That attitude pretty much evaporated when I was tasked with saving the poor white aryan lady from the evil black dudes set on defiling her.

Exactly. RE5 is racist as fuck. I can't hate it for that because it's grounded in ignorance, not malice.
Gotta agree. Capcom of Japan lives in a total monolithic uniculture with profound ignorance of western culture and traditions. I can hardly blame them, but it doesn't give them a free pass either. Considering the tensions between China and Japan, you can bet they'll be extra careful this time around.

If you're talking about the type C controls with the face buttons as camera/aiming, then yeah, not well.We've been able to since Mercenaries and Revelations which will be releasing shortly.
Why even call it a Survivor Horror game? Looks like Resident May Cry.
