Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
The cycle is complete
Have you play REmake? Not everything in this world is invented by TLOU.

You can't stealth or sneak up and do takedowns in REmake.

And RE6 released eight months before Last of Us.
Takedowns have existed for ages.

But you can do that in RE6.

Also I was stupidly blind on Revelations when I played it, so outside of peeking at some trailers, I will probably only be loosely following this game, especially as its release is so close already.
Revelations I liked more than most, but that's probably as I had the right set of expectations for it. I expected the game to have some handheld bearings on the console port, and to go in with spin-off RE mentality than main game RE mentality. And it was pretty good in that regard, a B-tier horror game but I found it enjoyable, but it wasn't really scary (thoug I'll admit there's like, four or five points the atmosphere is actually pretty nice in the game). I liked the setting and the bosses, personally, and Raid Mode was addicting for me.
I was thinking that a sequel made for consoles would probably see a lot of improvements for me, and I believe and have that gutfeeling that I will enjoy this more than the original, but I'm again expecting spin-off quality than main RE quality.
I'm sure I'll enjoy it but I also will be surprised if it passes my opinion RE spinoff wise on Dead Aim and the Outbreak games.
Will look at TGS stuff.

Sounds nice
But I'm a little concerned about this:
When playing as Claire, her style will be more combat focused. Whereas Moira will be supplying Claire with health herbs, provided the flashlight and general support.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Its the TR - > Uncharted - > TR cycle.
Also, Claire looks like a natural evolution of the character going in her mid/late 30's. She's not the 19 year old college girl that we saw in RE2 anymore.

Did you even read what I said? And nowhere did I say everything in the world was created by TLOU. I'm not some crazy ND worshiper like some around here. Hell, even the initial cover image looks very TLOU like, and it's probably intentional.
As for your first question, did you actually play REmake; you know, when it was first released? I did.
No doubt, but I was mostly just bitching because of the whole "not zombie" or "rage person" craze that started to become "the standard zombie" after 28 days later. And the way these "new Afflicted" are being described sounds too close to home to a clicker in how you handle them.

You should play a 2003 game called Manhunt

I played Manhunt, bought it on launch day when I was 13.

But you don't know anything about RE7....
i'm kind of intrigued by it myself.
Didn't remember about this Moira though.
i remember Barry mentioned a daughter in RE1, but i don't think we had ever seen her before (as a real 3d character i mean)? Also, how many years ago was RE1? Moira should be in her late 20s by now, i'm assuming.
The RE continuity is more confusing than MGS' to me.
Anyway i'm curious about her not having access to weapons and how that will balance out.
Also, what was the last game we had seen Claire in, chronologically?
Nemesis_

We've only ever seen Moira and Polly in photographs and artwork. Never in-person "in 3D" as you mention.
In REmake, you can see them in a family photo. That game took place in 1998.
In RE3, they appear in his artwork for his epilogue. I'm not sure what the year the epilogue refers to, but I believe it also took place in 1998 (but in the city, rather than the Arklay Mountain region)
We saw Claire in all those spin-offs, including Mercenaries 3D and Darkside Chronicles. Her last canon appearance was probably Code Veronica X. Some people consider Survivor 2 to be canon, but that takes place within the time period that Code Veronica X does, so yeah.
Not counting Degeneration (the CG film) she was last seen in Code Veronica X.

lol I remember that particular guy, it's at the start of a stage. Me and my coop buddy used to "slow race" to him to see who would push him over the edge first.
Not to rain on anyone's parade, but I feel like I'm the only one waaaay more excited for Evil Within than this new Resident Evil. Even though I started the rumor threads a while ago.
Horror game by mikami > anything current capcom can output, sorry.

Personally I feel like anytime Masachika Kawata is involved with something Resident Evil that it's going to turn out.....not very good.
He's worked / held a major role on Darkside Chronicles, Revelations and the HD Chronicles collection.
I honestly think he's Capcom's B-tier Resident Evil producer at this point.
That being said, I thought Outbreak was incredibly tight and that was directed by the same person who directed Resident Evil 6, so perhaps pedigree isn't the be all and end all, lol.

Sometimes I wonder if GAF focuses on pedigree too much for how little we (the great majority, at least) know what actually goes on in the development of any one game. I'm a diehard Mikami fan, but that sort of praise is starting to become grating to me. I mean, the guy is self-promoting himself in the advertising of his games, maybe it's not exactly an amazing fact that you know he exists. "It's good because *person*, even though I have no idea what that *person* did in a group of 30+ people". Not to downplay Mikami or a person in a similar position's influence, but hero worship based on the spread of only certain facts (who self-promotes, what leaks by in interviews) is not exactly conductive to meaningful commentary on games.

I still say the outbreak director deserves another chance. I really think a lot of its issues were more than likely forced on him what with the huge development team and how other areas were handling all sorts of different things. Doubt he had much control over the end product.

Revelations done right, with the return of Claire and Barry, sans Street Fighter EX reject character designs = could be pretty damn good.
Riposte

I think the game was rushed, the major issues being a lack of polish and failing to foresee player confusion (the kind of problems updates would address). It makes pushing up release date all the more weird.

I agree. I think Mikami is pretty good though, I remember reading a pretty glowing review of him from Kamiya in an Iwata Asks. There were some rumours that were pretty rampant about how useless Mikami was with the team and how he was a bit of a hack. Kamiya's words about him in this interview really put them to rest, I felt.
http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/wiiu/thewonderful101/0/3
But I do agree that we do place a bit too much importance on pedigree. Especially when it comes to producers and programmers and whatnot.
Mmhmm. I don't place the blame (re: Resident Evil 6) on any one particular person. It was just a perfect storm of less than ideal circumstances. Which is unfortunate, it could've been great if the fat was chopped before launch.
Agreed.

At this point I wouldn't even be excited about a re2 remake..

I can't believe they went with this stupid ass thumbs up and abandonned the nod when praising or saying thanks.

Although, that's so much of a closeup you can't really see anything else but her butt. Good showcase of her pants textures though! If only Capcom put as much attention to environment textures as they did with Ada's pants.

oh my
leons grin is even "better".
he ain't even grinning, dude makes an angry (more angry?) face when returning the thumbs up
I said goddamn.
Most definitely.
Also playing her in RE6 probably made me appreciate her as a character for the first time.

I'm indeed going to give Revelations a go soon enough, need to prepare for Revelations 2 anyway.
NO, YOU WRONG
