Leon's campaign had some great scenes. Some of my favorite franchise moments ever in a couple of brief places actually. The zombies in the train tunnel looked amazin.

Yeah, it's 1080/60. It's not max PC settings, but it's a definite improvement over the PS360 versions.

Another PS4 No Mercy video. Don't know if it's legit. But it's kinda hard to watch...

Medium settings sound surprising to me too. I did a screenshot comparison when the port was announced, and the screens looked identical besides AA, motion blur, and brightness.
Christ no wonder people hate the game if they are playing it like this D:
Yeah, I watched your video when you upped it. I honestly couldn't really tell a difference between the screenshots. Hopefully Capcom didn't bullshot a re-release.

RE5 No Mercy on PC to compare. I mean check 1:23... this mode is gonna be awesome to play on RE5. It's overwhelming as shit and so chaotic. Can't wait! Not the best player but video shows how insane No Mercy is on RE5.

Thanks again dude
I'll pre-order digital today. Too bad Best Buy isn't carrying these releases.
I can understand if someone like RE6. But tries to pass idea it's a bad game just because most of the people can't handle the whole mechanic, it's a mental masturbation. This game it's really bad. End of the story. You like it? That's fine, but please we can't avoid to try to pass the idea the only real issue it's to be too much sophisticated? Because it's not exactly that the problem. It's a confuse mix of gameplay mechanics without a clear lead in the whole game design. Seems a sort of beta to me.
No one says that not understanding game mechanics is the only reason RE6 is considered to be a problematic game (hence Cheat Code used the "to some extent"). But when you see someone struggling to do basic combat moves, or when you have people arguing that dodges and slides are an unnecessarily fluff in the game (the discussion in one of the recent "is RE6 a bad game" thread) you can't deny that such people will eventually get less fun from the game than the game might provide. It's like playing DMC games and only using basic Rebellion moves and guns and wonder "why the hell do people even like those games?". Sure, you can beat the game playing like that, but knowing how to play it properly and utilizing everything the game offers can give you much more satisfaction.
Well, of course. But it's not what I mean.

Saw this video earlier, solid demonstration of No Mercy mode. (old video, not the remaster)
Even if I end up thinking the campaign is total trash this mode looks like a lot of fun
RE6 No Mercy Mercenaries run w/ Carla

I could get 4/5/6 on Steam for a little more than $20, which is the same as getting just one of the 3 HD titles for PS4 (which I have preordered). My question is, how are the PC versions in comparison to the upcoming HD versions (kinda hard to answer since they arent out).
The PC ports of all three games are good so they're almost certainly going to be technically better than the console versions. Big differences: Support for >1080p resolutions and mods. Resident Evil 4's PC port is especially desirable since it's the only way you'll be able to play the INCREDIBLE texture replacement mod: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=757346
I haven't played the PS4 versions, but from what I understand, these are ports of the PC versions, not actual remasters. They seem to be equivalent to the PC versions running on mid to high settings. There's no new content, redone textures, or anything like that to the best of my knowledge, though, so you're probably better of getting them on PC unless you have friends you want to play with on console, or you're a filthy console peasant like me.

so wait, the only new thing is 1080p/60fps for ps4?
no new costumes, characters, modes, maps, anything?

Oh man I'm really looking forewards to play RE4 and RE5 again.
No, why should they. It's just a remaster. What do you expect?

It has some new features like No Mercy Mode in Mercenaries, which dramatically increases the number of enemies. Also includes all of the DLC baked into the base game, including the stuff once exclusive to RE.net (the PSX-style retro costumes, etc). And like you said, 1080p 60fps, plus better defaults.

Thanks boys. Saved myself $40 and still got all 3.
I agree, RE6 had plenty of awesome moments. It is unfortunate that there's a lot of iffy level design in-between said moments, but stuff like Chris fighting an invisible snake, going hand to hand against ustanak as Jake, or surviving that epic plane sequence as Leon all really stick out too me. All of the campaign crossover events were awesome too (when they worked, anyway).
Well,to be fair, other recent Capcom remasters have actually included new content. DMC4 had three new playable characters, and RE0 had a ton of new costumes, plus Wesker mode. That said, I don't think these should really be looked at as actual remasters. They're more like straight PC ports.
Unless they add anything to RE5 or RE4, it's better to buy the PC version. Official additional content aside (RE6 L4D2 characters and monsters in Mercenaries), you also gain the ability to set up better graphics (through in-game settings or outside the game, using 3rd party programs or filters) and mod games (changing characters' look).
However, if you think about online gaming, PC versions of RE5 and RE6 are currently a wasteland and the console version will probably be better in that aspect.

And this is why I'm sold on the console versions.

A physical copy of Resident Evil 4 would be dope
Yes, it's still the offset mini-split screen. Capcom did this to keep the screen's aspect ratio no matter whether you play alone or in co-op.
Yes, for local multiplayer it is still offset split screen that does not fill the full screen. Playing co-op is better done online since each player has their own full screen.

So how inferior is this console version compared to PC? Low or medium settings for consoles?

I've only played online co-op, but I've also heard that in offline co-op, both players get shared item drops, so basically less ammo and herbs for both players. Pretty big oversight, if true. And I really like RE6's streamlined "seperate item drops for both online players" system, compared to how RE5 did it.

we have one amateur analysis from someone who dislikes the game by design saying medium so that's our best source atm
Yeah offline co-op has shared item drops on the original release. Ran out of ammo often because of it. Hopefully they have fixed that in this release.

Of course the best one by far doesn't release until Fall. Granted, I still have it on PS3, and probably the PS2 disc as well.
The castle portion of RE4 is still one of my favorite gaming moments. Village is fun as well.

As much as I love these games, I think I'll just keep playing the PC version since they don't really have anything new.
At least I offered my insight. I have the PC and console versions of RE1 HD, RE0, RE4, RE5 and RE6.
I posted screenshots of the PC version on Max settings and PS4 screenshots and videos on page 32

I fixed the brightness settings on my capture card. This is the newest video with the brightness fixed:

Here is a screenshot taken directly from the PS4's share button using max brightness (40). Even on max brightness the PS4 version is darker than the PC version.

I like that the release order is basically admittance from Capcom that the series kept getting worse and that RE4 is the best. There is no other reason for such a bizarre release order.
And I say this as someone who liked RE6 and is buying the remaster.

Depends on what they're doing to RE4. RE6 would need the least amount of work visually speaking. RE4 would obviously need the most if they plan on cleaning it up.

I'm not expecting much, but I hope to be proven wrong. Especially after seeing that fan project of putting new textures in the game. I don't think Capcom will do anything near that.
Honestly, besides better textures and 60fps, what can you do to enhance RE4 further?
