But the whole game would be him suddenly materializing in areas and solving rubix cube puzzles on button terminals.Linkzg said:

RE5 was non-canon. In the true RE5, Chris dies within seconds and Josh kills everyone else while boning Jill, Sheva and making Wesker (openly) homosexual.
The way Jill was handled in RE5 was laughable. The reveal that she was
was totally fucking obvious (especially with all of Capcom's "RIP Jill" tombstone ads), and more annoying is the fact that Capcom made some high-res Jill model just for like a shitty two minute gameplay segment that you don't even get to control her.
I was hoping that Chris and Jill would reunite and partner up together for the rest of the game (or at least one mission) at that point. That would have been an awesome way to end the game.

The partner AI isn't nearly as bad as some people make it out to be. That said, they still need to beef up the partner AI significantly.
There also needs to be a re-tooled, no co-op campaign option, as well as the option to play through the campaign as Wesker and Jill.
There also should be a customizable Mercs mode that lets you choose your starting equipment, weapon strength, and AI difficulty.
The Mercs-exclusive weapons (Samurai Edge, Px4) should be unlockable in single-player.

Jill (and Wesker) are playable in Mercs and Versus.Sean said:

I do agree with this. You know what really pissed me off? The fact that it was
Chris and Sheva that finished off Wesker and not Chris and Jill

Personally, i would have liked it if wesker had found a way to genuinely and permanently brainwash Jill.

I think this will either be a Wii version or its just DLC. I dont know about a whole new director's cut on the same consoles so soon after its hit. It would need major amounts of new content to be worth it.
It could be RE5 retooled for use with the new motion controllers from MS and Sony though.

"Here take these, I'm too sexy to hold an RPG."
Sadly, because Chris' story in RE1 is canon, Jill has never killed an end boss in RE with an RPG. Would've been sexier if Sheva and Jill where the ones to fire.

re5 > re4 by miles for me. Almost on par with the old-school games.
by coming soon I mean within 6 months. Not much new content to make. Have to do it before the game becomes antiquated next to current releases. And whatsherface seemed to think everyone already knew about it.
I forget the proper terms, but you know the typical projected sales graph for product x you see in Business textbooks? How it tapers off unless do something to "boost" it. This is a booster. Boosters usually occur when sales are half their peak.
I never failed the game because of Sheva. She never did anything that had to make me reload. But it was the literal definition of babysitting. I always supervised everything she did, made sure she never wandered out of my sight.

I adore RE5.
It's not nearly as good as RE4, but RE4 is the second greatest piece of digital entertainment ever created behind Super Metroid, so that's understandable.
Thing is, I platinumed RE5 in like a week, so unless we get POINTER CONTROLS WITH PS3 WAND (PLEASE), I'll pass.

Unless they're a complete co-op and Mercs fiend I don't see how anyone in their right mind can prefer RE5 to RE4.
It's a fun game, but there was so much lost potential, mostly due to the inclusion and focus of co-op.
That said, I'm interested in what exactly Capcom has planned for a director's cut version of the game. Hopefully not just more costumes and Mercs stages. A Separate Ways mission with Jill wouldn't be too bad.

WTF? It begins?
Director's Cuts even after Special Editions? No wonder the industry is crumbling.

I thought RE5 was better than 4 but it didn't exactly satisfy the RE fanboy within. I can acknowledge that they're both great games, but they're just not Resident Evil to me at all.
It never ended. You weren't around in 1996? We got:permutated said:

DLC I want:
Sheeva death scene shortly after Jill's plagua removal.
Jill replacing Sheeva's model at start
Jill killing Wesker with Chris instead of newbie Sheeva.
Train plaqua that was in the artbook for Biohazard 5.
One player mode with no forced co-op.
Oh, wait half these won't happen and Jun will still have failed to touch the Godfather of Biohazard's 4. My mistake.

I remember back in 2007 when everyone thought RE5 would be the pinnacle game of the generation.

Personally, i do not mind the co-op, i just wish it hap been better designed.
Also, the new inventory can fuck itself. I could have lived with the ridiculous space decrease, and the ridiculous split, but the fact that it so cumbersome just took the fucking cake.

I'm still bitter about that. I was too imaginative back then.
EDIT:
And I'll admit, I never had a problem with RE5's inventory.
Me too! Although I also bought PC versions of RE4 and RE5.LiK said:
So I'm more of a fanatical fan than you, so there!
I personally think people who think RE4 is some kind of masterpiece, but RE5 to be a bad game, to be furiously silly people. They're both amazing games, and RE5 did some huge advancements to the general combat like the new melee moves and mercenaries in general. You'd have to have some really irrational hatred towards coop with human players and hot AI Sheva if you dislike RE5.

Absolutely pathetic part deux
I would get Resident Evil 5: DC if they reverted back to how the series was before RE4 but that is unlikely,

Give me Resi 1 with the RE4/5 view using RE5's STAR's uniforms, make it co-op and let us roam about the Mansion, and for god sake, make it HORROR not ACTION, k thx .

People are just incapable of hyperbole. I thought RE4 to be a masterpiece, and while not nearly as good, RE5 was still a great game in its own right. I think that the biggest issue people had with it was the fact that it refined instead of innovated.

Yeah, I also didn't like the demo at first, but I changed my mind after playing it online with my cousin. Co-op is what makes the game good. We both bought the game and played until we got the platinum trophy. I probably would have only played it one time and never touched it again if I had to play with AI Sheva.bumpkin said:

It really should have been on paper.Red Blaster said:
It followed up a pinnacle game of the generation and the developers were extremely careful not to rock the boat that RE4 put out in to the water in the first place.
They were just way, waaaaaay too careful. Afraid, really, of doing anything different from RE4. The one thing they did add - a forced co-op mode - is generally considered a damper on the game, or in the best cases, adds nothing but doesn't take anything away.
They put all their courage to do things differently in a single basket and that basket's quality varies wildly for most people.

Yay, more Resident Evil 5 FTW! Im with the majority and hope its DLC and not just a re-release.
Why did this thread turn into this anyway? People who dislike RE5 wouldn't be interseted in a director's cut anyway, so they've got no reason to post in this thread. We should stay ontopic and speculate what this director's cut could be, like Patricia mentioned some good new scenes she did acting for, and that may be an awesome lesbian sex scene with Jill and Sheva. Talking about that would be 10 times more productive than arguing.
