New Footage of RE4 on PS4

Haven't played since the GameCube and Wii versions. Didn't pick up the PS3 version because it looked like a lazy port. Really itching to pick up on the PS4 but WTF capcom. RE4 deserves much better.
 
No plat on PS4, this is literally the last nail in the coffin. Anybody who believes Capcom put any effort in this remaster now have their answer.
 
Because it wasn't, but RE4 is a full game.

Try reading the post next time. You're preaching to the choir.

"I'm not defending Capcom here" = using the same reasoning as GZ as a scapegoat for Bio4 here, which is a full game.

Seeing as how the texture project is comparing to the PC HD release, the PS4 wont fare any better.

Yeah, pretty much since the PS4X1 re-releases are nothing but the ports of the UHD edition on steam IIRC.

Also, I think since Capcom are in touch with those two modders, having that entire texture pack ported over to consoles by Capcom themselves, once these guys release it, is not far off (then again we're talking about a company/port team who're as lazy as not updating a new trophy/achievement list, LOL, so¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ). Their FAQ page for the village texture pack states that both of them touched around 470 MB of VRAM (just environment and not character/NPC's), and they recommend a card with at least a 1 GB framebuffer. So, even if it crosses 1GB usage in later areas like the island (hugely exaggerating here), both these currentgen consoles will breeze through.

But, they're only around halfway through the maingame's environment for now. There's another half, Separate Ways, Assignment Ada, Mercenaries, Characters/NPC's/Enemy textures etc. I would actually be surprised if they release it anytime before early 2018.
 
The first video had a small group of at least 4-5 infected huddled just standing in front of you. That doesn't happen a lot?

It happens a decent amount, but there are plenty of other instances where you're overwhelmed from all sides.

Keep in mind that you cannot move your character while aiming. The game is perfectly balanced to create a nice challenge. It's also not as easy to pop off headshots as you'd think.

I've honestly never known anyone to find RE4 to be too easy during their first playthrough.
 
Those are also the most basic enemy type and yeah it isn't as easy it seems especially on a first playthrough. you can really get ganged up on and one hit can really put you in a bad place.

Believe me, the game will challenge you plenty

I'm getting chills just thinking about having to get thru
the fountain room again.
 
How is this is this sony fault? Capcom was to lazy too add new achievements/trophies for this game.

It's Sony's fault because it's not enforced. A game on Xbox One without 1000 gamerscore simply isn't allowed. Therefore, all Xbox One games have 1000 gamerscore minimum (the only exception I can think of is the episodic game Blues & Bullets which presumably will have 5 full episodes and will fill out to 1000).

Sony should require all games (whether they're big games like Uncharted 4 or small games like Thomas Was Alone) to have a platinum trophy. Then you can avoid situations like this where the developer opts to take the easy way out.
 
It's hilarious that game like RE4 doesn't have a plat while titles like those from Namco's Arcade Game Series (Pac-Man, Dig Dug, etc.) have one. At least on X1 there will be 1000GS list for sure.

Exactly.

Agreed.
 
Its a little weird the way everyone focuses on the platinum trophy, when the lack of a full trophy list with 30+ trophies is the real problem. I've been playing Transformers Devastation and the requirements for the platinum are so difficult it may as well not have one. But it does have dozens of different smaller goals to aim for, which would be even more nice to have on an 11 year old game like RE4 that most of us have beaten multiple times already.

This is what I absolutely love about Microsoft this gen. Every single game has a "plat" on Xbox One (aka 1000 gamerscore).

RE4 on the 360 already had a "plat" five years ago, going by that logic.
 
Sucks that it doesn't have a platinum, but nothing would stop me from re-buying this game.
 
I personally don't care about it not having a platinum. I preordered weeks ago and will probably end up playing through it at least five more times.
 
Are you getting it from Amazon Prime or Best Buy with GCU? You get a 20% discount that way.
No I got it off psn. Wanted to use my $15 credit I got from the spend $100 deal back in June. Anyway it's not that big a deal, I essentially got the game for ten bucks since it costs $25 here.
 
I did read your post, not my fault it didn't come across in the context you intended.

That sentence as straightforward as it could be, had one context and there's NOTHING else to mean. Not my fault if you can't comprehend like everyone else. Keep spinning and arguing to prove that you were right on the internet. Sometimes people make mistakes, accept them and move on. I'm not going quote you again and waste my time further on an eternal exchange of infantile dialogue.


I'm baffled why full retail games come without platinums. Stop this dumb stuff Sony and just have parity for all games. Require plats.

Are we sure that it's SONY and not Capcom though? I agree that smaller titles should come with a plat and that's entirely on SONY like in the past with many examples. But this, looks more like a copy/pasta Capcom rush job more than anything.

Downloadable games used to have 200 to 400 gamerscore (like Fez, The Cave, Trials Evolution, etc...). Nowadays they all have 1000 gamerscore. That's what I mean.

True, all XBL Arcade titles have 200/400G (sometimes even 500 if there's DLC for them) but GonD titles usually have 1000G. I clearly remember both Bio4 HD and CVX HD having 1000G, and the same crap here being present there, no plats for both titles and only a gold. It's funny because both Bio Zero and Remake have plats, on PS3 & PS4.
 
the game is ready on xbone NZ store

just switch to NZ buy it and play
playing right now and it feels really good coming from last gen versions
 
So people buy games based on whether it has a platinum trophy or not?

The fact that Resident Evil 4 is widely considered one of the best games of all time isn't enough.

What the fuck?

I already played the game when it was first released years ago. People replay games for various reasons when theyre released, and this ones been done so a million times already so the fact that theyre doing it AGAIN and not bothering with something so simple that so many other releases/remakes have is quite absurd. Dont reward laziness
 
Yeah, not creating some more trophies and a platinum is extremely lazy, there's no question about that. I'm tight on funds but I forgot to cancel my Amazon pre-order (yeah it's cheap but there are new games coming out that I'd rather save for) and so I guess I'll be replaying RE4 on the PS4 sooner rather than later.
 
No platinum trophy is disappointing but this is one of the greatest games of all time. But if this wasn't 60fps I wouldn't buy it again since I could play it on my ps3.
