Resident Evil 6: Bro-Splosion Announced, Nov 20 PS3/360, PC Later, PR/Trailer In OP

The official version is that they are so good that they manage to survive without being infected. There were only two times in the series when the protagonist was infected: Jill in RE3 (she received a vaccine from Carlos; but the virus and vaccine leftovers in her body led to Wesker experimenting on her in RE5) and Leon in RE4 (the parasite was killed by that laser near the end of the game).

Wow, I am really excited for this now. Only played a little bit of Resident Evil 4 and didn't much care for the awful controls but this game looks really fun and much smoother to play.

this show is not Breaking Bad why is it not Breaking Bad? it should be Breaking Bad dammit Breaking Bad
I laughed bro, I truly did. People and their conclusion drawing...
Left 4 Dead also has Zombies, let's not forget!
The premise of zombies is a bit ridiculous. ._. Your point?
We don't play games that mirror reality most of the time.
Special Agents DO have martial arts training though. And the thing it shouldn't be horribly hard to kick an emaciated zombie around if you're Leon or Chris, special agents with years of experience against these types of foes.
Given all the training that Chris and Leon would have from the Air Force/STARS/Anti Terrorist and Police/Secret Service it would be odd if the only way they could defend themselves was with a gun.
Granted one could argue that they could possibly be scared of being infected, but in no way should it be shocking given the character stories from Chris and Leon that they couldn't fuck up almost anything that comes in front of them with all sorts of Melee combat.

I played RE5 by myself once and it was awful.

just do all of these
they don't even have to make sense in the context of what's going on. in fact, it'd be better if they didn't.
Guys, guys. Calm down. I simply meant. If you were going to roundhouse kick a zombie there is a chance it may grab your leg and bite it and you would become infected. Its safer to fight a zombie with a ranged weapon instead of trying to punch or kick it. It was not my intention to offend the RE fan-base with that comment lol.

Would zombies have fast enough reactions to grab a kick?

I agree 100%, suplex and neck-breaking is much safer.

Where are all the zombie fatigue comments?
Or the combat knife. Remember taking knifers from REmake?

Well even in that context, we hear in the trailer how many people are in that city and could be infected. Regardless if Leon is an excellent marks man like Chris, unless he has enough rounds on him to take out what ever comes his way, dropping a slow moving beast with a quick blow to the head is something that would be good for him so he has ammo encase he needs it later.
That and these two men are pretty much super men at this point, it would be even more odd to see them not doing these kinda things.
I just want to know if Chris is going to have his huge punch again. I just hope they don't fuck it up, if he sends you flying five feet I want heads to explode god damn it.

I know right? I cannot believe he played that game for so long.

leon would agree that it sucks, so that gif wouldn't make any sense.

RE5 features a guy punching a boulder.
There's no place for common sense in RE, also Leon is so awesome that zombies are marveled to his awesomness so they can't react when they receive a roundhouse kick.
agreed, everything in that gif looks like a welcome return to form except for the roundhouse kick. the "horror" of zombie-infested streets is seriously diminished when i see the kick and am reminded ill still be able to execute all of them RE4 style.
Leon also suplexes zombies, btw.
It being so similar with co-op forced were the main criticisms so, yeah, I have a hard time believing anyone who has enjoyed 4 would consider 5 shit. Other than being hyperbolic because it's the internet, I suppose.

I found the ideal strategy on how to make Residnet Evil 5 a better experience.
Take the disk out.
Right. I guess I still think of Leon as the rookie cop and Chris as a young soldier and not so much them as super heroes.

Lost in Nightmares was pretty meh. Very very boring. I actually played that in co-op lol. The other DLC was far better.
RE5 isn't a great game and it has tons of problems. Somehow though I've played it a lot this gen. So yes it is pretty fun.

I agree that LiN is good.
But I try to pick a level that I want to replay and they all just suck.
Chs 1 and 2 are the only good levels. Ch 3 is shitboring boat level. Ch 4 is cave level with awful puzzles and awful shit. Ch 5 sterile, uninteresting environment. Ch 6 boat level with too much shit.
Game just feels like it's 40 min long

This, level design wasn't as refined as RE4, but it's a notable game with some really fun co-op moments.
And LiN is the best chapter of the game.
BeautifulMemory

Even on a basic level RE5 fails. Everything is a chore
It's not fun shooting in RE5
It's not fun collecting treasures, and it's not selling it either
It's not fun upgrading the weapons
With LiN I can see the true potential of co-op + horror + action

I've pretty much only played it alone and *confession time* the aI isn't even that bad. It really never fealt like I was babysitting her. I rather it not be co-op, but that's because co-op effects the game in other areas.
It's not fun shooting in RE5? What's the difference?

Or it's an average game made better with a friend to dick around with.
re5 was okay i guess, but it just felt like they were forcing you from one battle to another. felt really fast and forced (and i suppose it is, can complete it in like 3 hours) without any exploration or lulls to let you catch a breath and build general atmosphere. its just like a straight to dvd film that tries to capitalise on the success of the original without understanding what made it good.
I played RE2. Barely remember the girl beyond being an annoyance.
RE2 had a plot?

You hate playing single player games with others or don't have online? That's an excuse.
Taking a game (RE4) and making literally every aspect of it worse (RE5) is going to get some tough criticism.
Not sure if I'd call it very, very good. It's average.

Did you not like Resident Evil 4? You are a heretic, sir.

And that's one of the geniuses of RE4 - everything was fun! It was actually important to collect treasures and it actually felt nice to upgrade your weapons

Yeah, coming off of SOCOM to play that game was really strange for me, every movement felt so laborious like I had weights on my limbs. I just wanted a little less tank-ness.

Resident Evil 4 is better, unquestionably, but this is just silly. Upgrading the weapons being more fun? C'mon, son.
