Nice job OP. You've convinced me to pick the game up. Had fun with the demo but hopefully the final version is a tad less sloppy.

Taking all of next week off of work just to suplex some zombies. Feels good.

Actually, now that I think about it, I don't think I've actually done a suplex in the demo. Leon's got a running bulldog, Helena's got a hurricanrana for no reason (which is fantastic), and Jake's got a giant swing, but no trademark suplex. Maybe some other character's got it this time. Where you at, Josh?

Edit: False alarm. Jake's got it.

Jake's got the suplex.

Edit: ha ha, nevermind.

I've definitely pulled off a suplex with Leon, but I forget what combination of body shots and placement around the enemy caused it.

Anyway I cannot wait for my Archives edition to get here. RE4 HD and CV:X HD will be the delicious topping on this cake.

Edit: Eh, maybe it's Jake then.

I just got my LEVEL magazine (the most well-known and respected gaming magazine in Sweden) and they gave it the following:

Dusk Golem

A 21st Century Rockefeller
Hey everyone, this is Dusk Golem aka AestheticGamer. I have posted on NeoGAF since 2011, and have decided to resign. I have enjoyed posting about horror games here for years, but I no longer wish to support the site and will be leaving for good. I will still be around the internet, I go by AestheticGamer on YouTube, I make games on Steam as Yai Gameworks, and I plan to go by Dusk Golem on other forums. I'll be joining an off-set of the GAF community leaving to try other ventures like ResetEra (Official Twitter for that here: https://twitter.com/reseteraforum ). I hope some of you who read this may consider it, and I plan to try to expose more people to horror games in the years to come. Just not here.

I hope you all are having a good day, and know I always loved the community, and in the end it's the community I'm going to stick with, not the site itself. If you want to follow me, my official Twitter is here: https://twitter.com/AestheticGamer1

lol, maybe they got these reversed? I remember seeing benchmarks a while back that showed more slowdown in the PS3 version.

That's what i thought too. Even with the demos been old builds, i still find hard to believe the PS3 version would look and perform better.
 
yay! you went with the right thread title. it works on so many levels. i'm still wait and see on this, but that's why i'm nestled here in the launch thread. for the seeing part of the wait and seeing.

can i hold out until a Wii U or PC version? stay tuned.

I'm more excited about the Umbrella umbrella bonus from capcom store than the game.

Oh and how the jacket looks when cvx gets his.

Yeah, good choice for the thread title. Definitely the best one.

You know, I thought more people would dig these over the top moves. The way they are implemented makes it better than any of the melee moves in previous RE games. Especially when combined with the diving on your back, sliding and quick shots. While the camera may not be too friendly, the gameplay has been greatly improved to form RE-style third person shooting crossed with a Japanese action game.

I know that this change is what is throwing a lot of the traditionalists off, but I happen to appreciate being able to move around faster and do more when being surrounded. It is not that same kind of tension as the older games, but it is a more hectic tension with more options to consider to be sure. It is just going to be one of those love it or hate deals, I guess.

Grabbing one of Leon's avatars, thanks!

Can't fucking wait to play this. I bought the Archives Edition because I wanted 4/5 Gold anyway and 6 (and CV) would have been good as an extra, but after several playthroughs of the demo I'm hyped as hell to play it. Bring it on! :D

Yup Archives is gonna be sick. I already have RE5 on PS3 so not sure what I'm gonna do with RE5:GE on 360, but I definitely will be playing the hell out of 4 and CV:X in HD.

Near 30 hours of campaign in an action/shooter? Unheard of. Game is worth buying just to support this abundance of single player content.

I'm going into full salesman mode here but don't forget the umpteen hours you can put into Mercenaries and Agent Hunt, not to mention replaying the game to unlock weapons/upgrade skills/play with new costumes.

Well I pre-ordered. Hope it's good, have not played the demo or read up on anything.
Loved re4 and 5, so just going by history.
 
I loved 4 and 5, but 6's demo had me wary. I'm really not feeling the new controls at all.

Yeah, I didn't even like 5, but it played fine and the opening levels are fantastic. It just really lost steam after a couple of chapters.

I initially thought that having a bunch of different campaigns in RE6 was going to be amazing, but it seems like creating so many different playing styles really hurt it. Chris's campaign especially feels atrocious. Like one of those really bad budget games that try to copy the success of Gears of War.
 
No CVX or Yama OT? Still great job with the OT.

Nice to see a few reviews slip through, its going to be all over the place, just like the opinions in this thread.

I've been out of the loop. Didn't know about Agent Hunt, but it sounds fun.

This game will keep me busy for a long time.

this

in a "slow" paced scenario like Leon i'm digging the new controls, but i didn't even finish the Chris section, i seriously hated it


but i'm still excited to play it, a lot
 
Ask mod to re-arrange your post, Nem. Also, gone but not forgotten:

LMAO I've never seen that before. Awesome.



As for the game... I'm not comfortable at all with shooting enemies in this game. I'm over the camera issue, it's not THAT bad, but shooting zombies or las plagas people just feels terrible. It makes me think RE5 had a solid engine.

Then again I've always enjoyed resident evil more for its characters and campaign over its gameplay. Melee-ing and Shooting just doesn't feel all that good in this game...

Thanks, do you have a source? I would like to buy it off PSN and get it instantly, instead of waiting like 2 weeks for the game to arrive to my country.

We need to get confirmation, because I'd rather have it on my HDD. And I want it day 1.

Too bad we can't purchase and DL these games a day early... and then on release day DL the unlock key.

Because that would be awesome.

Haha man I'm getting my copy a few days later than everyone else because Newegg doesn't have free release day shipping. I do have Amazon Prime but I would rather save $20 and wait a few days to play the game.

Guess I'm gonna have to do some pr0 spoiler dodging.

We already have it, but for the Euro version, thanks to Gbraga:

I can't buy the EU version though... :(

There is no possible way I can wait. I just cannot.
