Hopefully they do a big compilation. Not feeling RE6 for $20 or RE5/4 for that matter. Played them way to much.

That said if RE2make comes with RE3 in some form then we would be able to play every mainline Resident Evil game on one platform not including PC.

Get lost CV:X

 

[Windforce]

I'll definitely play RE5 and RE6 again! Sweet coop experiences, I'll try to bring a friend over to the series too.

Spoiler

Is it too much to expect sexy Chris alternate costumes?

 

[Acquiescence]

6, 5 and then 4. Resident Evil truly is the series that improved as it went on.

 

[GrayChild]

Already having these on PC, so I'll pass. Still, it's a great deal for those who never played them.

 

[joe2187]

Getting 4 and 5.

Should I get 6? I've heard mixed feelings about it so I'm not sure.

Do you like action games? Do you like beat em ups? Do you like Wrestling?

yes.

even if you dont

buy it anyway and play it

i will personally co-op the game with you

Why are people giving Capcom shit in this thread? Is the SFV hate that strong?

I blame Mega Man

 

[Always-honest]

RE4 just in time for Nintendo NX ey?

Anyway, not buying it againg. Amazing game though.

As in there's no special menu to select the game or anything is what he means. You don't get taken to a "Select Game" screen like you do in say The Nathan Drake Collection. It just plops the games on the HDD like you downloaded them. With no indication you even have a physical copy.

And then it tells you to put the disc in when you try to load one. And you have to fully install them before you can play. The way the REMAKE / RE0 disc works is not normal.

It's only a minor thing if these follow suit, but something to be aware of.

 

[Neff]

RE6 took the "land a critical hit to set up melee" gameplay that started with RE4, expanded in RE5 and just turned the dial to eleven.

Pretty much. If it was made clearer to those who skipped RE4 and 5 that a melee from stun is the most powerful attack you have, and that you can get stuns not only from critical hits and flash grenades, but also from quickshots and slides, then people would probably appreciate the game more.

RE6 is basically the logical evolution of RE4, at least mechanically.

The main problem with 6 is that it's wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too long/bloated. A lot of the terrible design decisions could have been mitigated/overlooked if it didn't overstay its welcome by 10+ hours.

It's ironic because Capcom thought that RE4 was too long and deliberately dialed down the size of RE5. Then they went and made RE6, not only by far the biggest RE game, but one of the biggest games they've ever made in terms of content.

I wouldn't be surprised if they U-turn again and park RE7 somewhere in the 20 hour bracket.

 

[myco666]

See that is my problem, coop and survival horror don't mix

RE6 is pretty much an action adventure game with zombies

I understand but I don't consider RE4 or RE5 to be survival horror almost at all. Both are fantastic action games.

 

[kurahador]

Do we have confirmation of that? It doesn't seem that clear.

No confirmation, but based on the pricing for each game and how Capcom released RE0 and REmake bundled on disc recently.
There's a good chance they'll do that again here.

 

[Twin Tails]

Re5 is so good coop. Can't wait to play again.
Never played re6

 

[Easy_D]

umm , what are you talking about ?

http://store.steampowered.com/app/352000/

Wait what. That came out? God damn, I'm so late on that train :lol

 

[Carbonox]

"Physical disc versions will also be available in the Americas."

I fucking hope Europe gets a disc version. Would be day zero purchase.

 

[CoolZombie]

In for all 3! Yet again lol. Seriously I think I've bought Resi 4 about 8 times now over the years.

 

[strafer]

Look, I like Resident Evil 4 as much as the next guy but seeing people dismiss Resident Evil 5 and throwing it under the bus like this truly disgusts me. To me RE5 is a much better game both gameplay wise and story wise.

Resident Evil 4 might have revolutionized the series but 5 expanded it and made it better.

 

[Dusk Golem]

I'll definitely play RE5 and RE6 again! Sweet coop experiences, I'll try to bring a friend over to the series too.

Spoiler

Is it too much to expect sexy Chris alternate costumes?

In Mercenaries, Chris will have his Samurai costumes (in their blue and red versions).

And of course like all the characters, we'll also get retro Chris.

Though my two favorite 'retro' costumes are Leon & Sherry's.

 

[plagiarize]

Re5 is so good coop. Can't wait to play again.

And this. RE5 is fantastic in co-op. It's only a stumble if you play it single player and arm Sheva with something other than the stun rod. If you play it single player, you are playang it wrong.

 

[Crossing Eden]

Welp, guess i'm gonna rebuy RE4 again. :|

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

The lost in shadows dlc in that picture only came to PC when the GFWL transition happened and was available for free to people who already owned the game.

I know there was previous dlc for the pc version, but the dlc in question (since someone was initially suggesting the pc didn't get that dlc) came later for free to people who owned the game.

I'm not mixing anything up.

None of the Gold DLCs were free, ever, on Steam. Period.

You're gonna have to come with some receipts for what you're saying

 

[Astral]

Can we just get RE6 Mercenaries instead? It's the only good part of the game and I don't wanna pay $20 for it.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Sorry it has coop, instantly makes it garbage
/s

 

[Love Deterrence]

Wait what. That came out? God damn, I'm so late on that train :lol

They released it late as hell tho

 

[Dusk Golem]

Also, they're not going to do it probably, but I don't think anyone would complain if they removed that terrible prologue chapter (that's just a more automated version of a segment you play later in Leon's campaign).

 

[Mugy]

I the only person who thinks RE6 has a really good shooting mechanics? The story mode with the original awful FOV and the stumble-into zombie movement are the two things who makes the game really bad, at least in the solo story mode.

But, when you play the game in the mercenaries mode, with corrected FOV and all the maps big enough to move, shoot, get on the ground and everything, RE6 becomes a really, really good shooting game

 

[plagiarize]

They released it late as hell tho

But they gave it us for free though!

 

[ArkkAngel007]

Can't deal with tank controls at this point. I'd love to play it, but the control scheme makes it too difficult.

Never know what they may add to 4 with it so far out. I don't think 6 was tank though.

RE5 is just better version of RE4 because it has coop.

Will be buying all of these again then. No retail version for EU though? What is this nonsense.

RE5 had a better narrative, gunplay, and some standout encounters (though just as many fell flat), and the coop. RE4 was superior in overall encounter design, A.I. behavior, and replayability. Pacing and Mercs I put about equal. 5 had those terrible set piece events like the Gigante sequence.

Many people try and play it as a shooter, because there's a cover system and guns, and I guess that's the natural tendency? But if they were better able to convey that the game is a brawler, it would've been better for everyone.

RE6 took the "land a critical hit to set up melee" gameplay that started with RE4, expanded in RE5 and just turned the dial to eleven. Idk how many people get that.

Fine if it's not someone's thing, but it's unique in the industry, and fucking awesome.

If the encounter and level design was just as expertly crafted, it would have been received much better. I honestly only felt that the mechanics shined in Mercs, and likely most people gravitate to the hit-and-miss campaign.

When are we getting 2 and 3?

REMAKE 2 is only 6 or so months in development, so I'd expect a 2018 release. Unless they roll REmake 3 in with 2, development on that will depend on their marketing effort and result of such in selling REmake 2.

 

[aggienader]

The real question here is which version of 4 will we be getting?

 

[black070]

Will have played the same game on three different generations of the same platform - and I won't even think twice about doing it.

 

[NotMyPsn]

Would love to grab some for cheap. Got resi 6 for 5 usd digital a couple of years ago, for god's sake

 

[ironcreed]

Re5 is so good coop. Can't wait to play again.
Never played re6

I love 5 period. Extremely happy to be getting it looking even better than it already does.

 

[Dusk Golem]

The real question here is which version of 4 will we be getting?

It looks like all the versions are based off the PC versions. So it'll probably be the Ultimate HD edition of RE4.

 

[Adaren]

How many sailor outfits does this have

 

[Chola]

I understand but I don't consider RE4 or RE5 to be survival horror almost at all. Both are fantastic action games.

RE4 was barely survival horror anyway.

Come on, why is RE4 not a survival horror game, is it because its not RE1 or RE2?
RE4 may not be pure but its still a survival horror game, it has all the elements of survival horror

RE5 canbe played without tank controls. You just can't move and shoot. I mean I think it's balanced for tank controls and should be played that way, but you can totally have aiming on the right stick and strafing on the left.

 

[CastleRybread]

Best thing about RE6 was its logo!

I forgot about the giraffes until you mentioned this. Curse you!!

I'll buy 5,but probably skip the others. 6 is trash and 4 I have on Xbox and pc still.

 

[black070]

Is 60fps confirmed ? Will be day one for Resi 6 if that's the case.

 

[scitek]

Give 4 and 5 Move support, damn it.

 

[Zophar]

$20 a pop is really steep, but I have wanted to give 5 another go. All three are sitting on my PS3 hardrive picked up at bargain prices because I didn't expect they'd actually port them.

 

[GuardianE]

I wonder if the physical release will be sold separately or as a whole package.

 

[Jaymageck]

Here's hoping the lighting in RE4 is at least as good as the Gamecube version.

The insistence on using the PS2 version as the base for ports has really aggravated me in the past.

 

[ArkkAngel007]

I just realized I've only played the Gamecube version of 4. So even if they don't do much with the remaster, there will still be stuff I've never encountered in my favorite game

I've always ran with he default scheme, so that's a surprise.

 

[queequegs__coffin]

Finally Capcom has heard our pleas and is giving us a Resident Evil 4 port.

 

[Metalmarc]

will buy again

Just need 0 and Revelations 2 this gen..

I know what I'm doing for 30 days of horror this Halloween, Resident Evil Fest.

 

[Fancy Clown]

I'm pretty sure the other ports don't use the PS2 version as the base. They have the added stuff, but they also have the graphical effects and enemy numbers the PS2 version was missing.

 

[MCD]

Poor Sheva.

 

[amdb00mer]

I have all those games on 360, where is my back compat Capcom

I agree. I hope they are still released under BC. I have two of these as digital titles already.

Ps2 was only the base for the first PC version. 360 and PS3 (and steam RE4) all used the game cube version as the base... however 360 and PS3 were missing effects (and substituted some) that were specific to the game cubes hardware.

This will almost certainly use the recent PC port, so you will likely be getting 60 fps and some improved textures etc along with all of the game cube effects (which took a patch to get working on PC, but they got there).

 

[TheJollyCorner]

Looks like Capcom is gearing up for Resident Evil 7.

Good. Gooooood.

E3 reveal seems likely. :}

 

[Akibared]

YES! YES! YES! Looking forward to playing RE6 and RE5 co-op again and buying that 5th RE4 copy!

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

But they gave it us for free though!

no they didn't, we had to pay for the untold stories DLC
