Sorry, Welcome to the 8-bit era, Capcom was the best third party (or one of the best, a matter of opinion) back then

I'm pretty certain we'll see a Code: Veronica-esque side story title again one of these years which attempts to fill in some chronological gaps.

It wasn't a matter of opinion to me (I literally ditched a friend at a baseball game at six years old because he said he hated Megaman).rockman zx said:Sorry, Welcome to the 8-bit era, Capcom was the best third party (or one of the best, a matter of opinion) back then
Always loved Capcom, as long as they keep kicking ass always will.

I really can't think how they could evolve the core gameplay mechanics of RE4 any further, without actually breaking them.

You need to be able to move while shooting. But looking at the video it seems you can't.

Well, the series has never really adhered to the 'run 'n gun' philosophy. And far be it to say that any of the RE games follow the rules of reality, but attempting to run and shoot - nevermind hitting a target with something as small as a bullet - is almost physically impossible. And stopping to shoot a crowd of zombies or attackers is always more panic-inducing than merely circle-strafing and shooting.

Anyway, I love the waste grab...its just hilarious

You moving while shooting argument always felt rather disningenous for some reason.
Let's use a slightly more extreme example - in RE4, Leon cannot fly. He is bound by the laws of gravity like any other human in the game.
But no one complains about this. Why?
Because the game was not designed around Leon being able to fly. Everyone realizes this. Giving Leon the ability to do so would completely break the game.
Similarly, the ability to strafe was not something the game was designed for. It was designed so that you could attack or move - one or the other. To be able to move and shoot would break the game as it is.
And you know what? That's okay. Because every game ever created, and likely every game that ever will be created, will be limited in what you can and cannot do. What's important is that the game is well-designed around the set of limitations imposed on you. RE4 is such a game.
(And for an example, look at RE4 Wii Edition. Allowing that the Wiimote makes aiming control like a dream, the game was simply not designed with the allowance that your aim could zip all over the screen in a matter of a second. The difficulty of the game is thus significantly reduced.)

I SAID MOVE, NOT RUN.
Geez
Just walking forward or backward or sideways would be enough, slowly yes, but moving

Finally! Someone who understands how bringing changes to a game doesn't mean breaking it if the rest of the game is taking that change into consideration! So many people, even in the industry, have trouble understanding that!

Both for me...Im much more interested in MGS4, but RE5 actually surprised me....course MGS was proper gameplay...given how early this game is, I expect the real thing is rough and running at a chugging fram rate

Nope, Zelda Phantom Hourglass!
YOU LOSE!
(really it's a ****ing stupid question, what are we comparing here? The action? The graphics? The animations? The gameplay? The lighting? Who's hotter between Chris and Snake? What colors we prefer? Which one we want to play? Are we a fan of either series?
Useless!)

RE5 any time, MGS games are a bit meh to me anyway, still the original was very good.

MGS4. But these are going to be the two best games. Ever.

The thing is they are two entirely different games.
I was never a RE fan until RE4, and I've been a big MGS fan since MGS1. So I await both equally but for entirely different reasons, because in the end they are entirely different experiences.
So, both.
