Resident Evil 6 trailer (Full campaign co-op) [Oct 2, Length, No Wii U for now, more]

I assume not if it plays like Revelations.

I was about to say that Revelations didn't have much campaign co-op, but then I remember that it did, and it was throughout the entire game. That is how non obtrusive your partner was. It didn't detract from the experience at all.

Some choice excerpts from the Famitsu article:

It is believed that the C-Virus was mixed with a nutritional drug which someone distributed to soldiers of an anti-government army.

The C-Virus makes a host enter a chrysalis state, where it gestates and becomes a "perfect organism".

Jake is unaffected by the C-Virus.

Sherry is an agent like Leon and Helena, same agency. After a few years of house arrest following the Raccoon City incident, she was freed and became an agent as a "bargaining point".

Forced campaign co-op again? Interest rapidly declining. Someone tell me you won't be babysitting the AI's health and inventory at least.
Yeah, not too happy about that. If it's something closer to RE4 than I'm ok. But if it's closer to RE5 than that's a little disappointing. Besides that, game looks cool though. Happy about the ability to move and shoot in this one.

Now I'm praying that the PS3 is up to par with the 360 version.

They introduced it in 5 and they won't can't go back as itd seem like feature skimp. Thank god its not like gears3 4P mode.

I wanted to take Dragon's Dogma for PS3, but with this demo thing... Damn!

But if the demo is anything like RE5 (short, not showing much), I can wait and just see youtube videos.

Hey Dennis how about you stop making .gifs of random fucking timestamps, I've already seen the video online.

Ugh, full campagin co-op.

I just don't understand why the gamedesigners limit themselves so much.
Now Chris will never be separated from his team, Leon will never have to fight alone against a huge amount of zombies and you'll never have to chase a huge monster through the whole city after it just kidnapped Sherry.

All of this doesn't work because the second player will always have to be able to control some character.

What was so wrong with the magic second master chief that appeared in the Halo 1 co-op mode? You don't have to integrate it into the campaign. Only a fraction of a fraction will actually pay attention to the story when they'll play through it with some buddies.

Damn, this looks awesome. Ever since the PSX I've been wanting to get into Resident Evil; I just never got around to it. I've played (and beaten) Resident Evil 4 before, but that was with friends and we just passed around the controller when we were about to pass out. :D

Sooo.. with the Gamecube remakes out (and possibly others?) I've been wondering what is the best order to play these games in and which versions?
 
Does anyone here still remeber RE Damnation? I have a feeling that they will tie something from RE 6 in this GC movie the same way they did with RE Degeneration by
referring Tricell. about 5 seconds before the film ended
.

Again, the new guy looks like a logical evolution of the original Chris design, the actual RE6 Chris looks even worse than 5's. >_>

y so angry?
Sometimes Dennis needs a little kick in the dick in the balls to start selecting better moments to .gif. :p

They still can make it more "horror-ish", for example, by limiting the arsenal of guns. Just your basic pistol, shotgun, magnum and maybe some sub-machine, without a lot of stuff like RE5.

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.

I always thought that most problems like these could be solved by if more people join they just become generic soldiers, allowing co op with narrative freedom. No game designer seems to like this idea though.

There's only a remake of the first game. The gamecube versions are good but have fun finding them, might as well just play the playstation ones. Avoid the PC versions of everything but 5.

Play them in order starting with REmake, RE Zero is a prequel but you can fit it in anywhere (I'd recommend waiting until finishing 2).

Piers or Jake?

If the former, Piers looks much like Chris did in the beginning of the RE series really. If the latter... I don't see how Chris shaving his head would've been a logical choice.

Still, there will probably be unlockable costumes/DLC for this game I'm willing to guess so it's probably moot to whine about Chris' hair for the most part. :p

Holy fuck, is this the HUD in the bottom right corner? wow.

surprised that capcom had humility to take a step down and take inspiration from dead space. the UI being the most obvious but also things like more action oriented gameplay, movement while aiming, and if you look in the hud there is a green RB prompt which is likely a quick button for healing like in dead space.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIT A SECOND.

What is that new and ugly aiming reticule that I only see in FPS games? Where's my laser sight that looked so much better and helped with accuracy?

Also, what is the HUD based on due to its shape? Is it supposed to mirror Leon's weird futuristic phone screen? Cos that would be a cool touch.

haha, talking about Piers, obviously. And yes, he's more similar to Chris' RE1, REmake and CV appearances than RE5/6 Chris.

Oh shit, you're right. A crosshair what :(

This is terrible, where the hell is the laser!?

Piers' hair reminds me of TinTin

Wait, is there a gameplay trailer? I missed it.

Agreed. Granted though, it's kinda hard to gauge how old Piers is exactly from the released media. If it turns out he's like 30-31, then I'll have to question just how exactly the artists decided to age Chris as they have.

...and then I'll be slightly bitter/annoyed as Chris' appearance in UC->DSC->Revelations looked like it was logical aging to me.
