Not what I expected but still somewhat relieved. Re6 was horrible

Yeah it's totally Hunnigan for the "in-game" character.

RE:R is one of the worst Resident Evil games ever made. The poorest man's RE4.

Remember when RE6 was meant to be the return to RE's Roots?
I am sceptical on everything until we see large chunks of gameplay

I didn't like Revelations. Wasn't scary at all to me.
RE6 sold very well, why would it?

Loved Revelations. This is a plus in my book.
Better have Claire in it. If it's like revelaitons I hope it's only like the chapters on the ship and not like the terra grigia(sp?) chapters. Revelations was great for the ship chapters but underwhelming for the rest.
On the other hand, I felt RE6 was an train wreck from beginning to end. You can't play for more than five minutes without an annoying QTE, a cutscene,a cheap instant death/kill wall chase or an awful vehicle sequence. It seems it never ended too.

It sold a lot based on hype and later on through some word of mouth for people to give it a shot after it got panned, but if Capcom announced another game like RE6 people will just shrug it off.
Which is a shame, since I think RE6 is fantastic, even with its flaws.

Because it reviewed like dirt.

Because it's worst critically received mailine RE game?
People won't continue to buy games from a series of shit.

It lost them money and was critically panned:
"Capcom today released financial results for the year ended March 31, reporting that its Resident Evil 6 sold 4.9 million units (enough to be the fourth best-seller in company history), but still managed to disappoint.
The publisher said that the game initially sold "at a brisk pace" when it was launched last October. However, Resident Evil 6 sales "subsequently plateaued. As a result, it did not meet with our projection and thus was not able to play a role in leading the segment's sales growth." (Capcom had originally projected the game to sell 7 million copies.)"

Revelations is dope as fuck, hope it ends up like Outbreak though.

Raid mode is the best thing about revelations. If you are going mix the two RE styles make it the best of both, revelations is not that, it's a poor version of both styles. Great game but nothing special.
This is very good. I played through RER on Wii U, and what a great game -- If you try it, keep in mind that the first part of the game is pretty shitty, you need to play further in for it all to get good.
RER was great DESPITE its strange format, where gameplay was sliced up into tidbits for portable play, and graphics scaled back for obvious reasons. A full fledged console game from the ground up would be great. Very excited.

Yet it was a step in the right direction as you had some exploreable levels again. Assuming they expand on this the next game could be good. But then again, its Capcom and they probably still want RE to be Call of Doody. So I pretty much expect them to screw it up again.

REvelations was way better than RE6, so its okay
Yeah, give us RE6 with a single, more cohesive campaign that isn't too serious. And go back to a weapon system (multiple types of each gun, stat upgrades, being able to hotkey weapons to the d-pad) similar to the prior games.
Also fix Ada's face. She is not Asian Glenn Close.
Yep, I think it failed at literally everything it tried to do. If I'm trying to be positive, I guess I can say that I thought the final boss fight was kinda cool?
RE6 was a total mess but atleast it was a fun mess, Rev is just straight up boring.

I fear that the RE6 backfire went way too far. The controls, animations, weapons and even enemies are all just fine. What brought the game down were some dumb design decisions (QTE moments, ammo count, level layouts), as well as incredibly bad pacing.
Take the core controls from RE6 and then design a good fucking game around it.

No duh. Bio7 is going to be the big production again, and that shit takes time, and they aren't changing shit about it for anyone. They will do whatever they think is best as they originally thought it, because that is how Capcom works.
Guess which one is REV.

RE6 and REV go to couples counseling.

More recently, we can add that Resident Evil 6 became the third best selling Capcom game of all time with 5.8 millions. In any case, I like the idea of making a more balanced Resident Evil instead of doing directly a blockbusteresque Resident Evil 7.
Yeah probably they make RE7 half as long as nobody really appreciated the 4 campaigns. So they can save lots of money and make a good profit.

Apart from Chris, Barry, Jill and Rebecca did all the other STARS members die? some were MIA right?
Could be a return of some of alpha or bravo team.

News Bot posts here, doesn't he? Could swear I've read him drop mountains of knowledge about the Resident Evil series before.

Walruses, camels, bears, rabbits, tigers and badgers.
Revelations is by far my favorite RE since RE4 so I'm fine with this development (if true).

Don't think there were any female STARS other than Jill and Rebecca, though.
So I guess the returning female would either be Claire or Rebecca, and the background character female....Hunnigan's the only one I can think of at the moment.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Whatever it is, I hope to god it's Cross-Gen.

Is Revelations any good?
I hated part 5
Never played 6.
Only asking because my local Target has it for 10-12 doll hairs.

RE revelations was the only RE game I dropped. It just didn't click for me. I would love a RE5 Lost in Nightmares approach
No, RER is just not a very good game. (Been playing since the first Resident Evil)
According to them, it's as much as a side thing as "Code Veronica" was.
Don't worry.

Pretty sure they all died outside of those 4.

Hated the gameplay for Revelations despite it being based on RE5's system. It just felt boring to play after a while and didn't translate well onto consoles. Plus... the lack of melee moves and limitations of the communication system to "thanks, wait, come here and move in" in revelations, geez...
Despite this I hope it's true. Been wanting new RE game.
