So I got a chance to read the Game Informer article about Revelations 2, and the producer's in there saying that if you're really hardcore, you'll recognize the name of the female character who's taunting Claire and Moira through the intercom.

People have been thinking Alex Wesker could be female since RE5, since very little's known about the character.

I assume it's that or she's someone mentioned in a random file like how Ada began.

It's Alexia. She has Alex Mercer's virus imitation thing going for her now.

In all seriousness I would imagine that kind of character to get their own main sequel, not be in Revelations 2. As far as I know all the old names have been used up aside from Alex and all the antagonists are being introduced as it goes on.

I, for one, welcome our new overlord(s)

No seriously, I would be down for a reunion (of sorts) of the series' cast offs, in one corner you have a reluctant Claire Redfield who took the high road and wanted out of this poo poo and accompanying her you have Moira Burton...jury's out on her but she is a Burton nonetheless. In the other corner we have Rebecca Chambers (and Billy because it just wouldn't be the same without him), the one who probably should've gotten the gently caress out of Dodge too but instead she took a turn for the worse after Raccoon got nuked and she wants to have everyone know what it was like to go through her experience.

Wow, apparently you can lag so bad that the game skips a boss fight. My friend lag switched when we jumped down from the railing before Simmons T-Rex fight and it loaded twice. Then we were in the elevator after the fight.

e. Apparently you can hide from Simmons. We were trying to get the bus to fall on us and he lost us even though he was looking right at us :v:

I just played through RE4 HD. I hadn't played it since it first dropped on the Gamecube, and while I remember liking it a lot, I don't remember it being THIS good. I'd have to say it's easily in my top 10 games of all time now that I've really gotten to play it again. It's just so well designed and it plays so well. I also played through Assignment Ada and Separate Ways - what are the general opinions of those? Separate Ways was pretty good, aside from a few moments of frustration here and there, although it never felt quite as good as RE4's main campaign. It was just really obvious they were reusing environments (which I don't fault Capcom for, it's just a side story) and it gave me more money than I knew what to do with. I found Assignment Ada to be a (mercifully short) slog though. I don't know if it just wasn't as well designed or I was just really getting tired of the same environments, but I really didn't have much fun with it. It was really predictable (enter room, kill 2 guys, grab Thing, 10 guys with shields come in and one minigun guy) and 99% of it was just me spraying everything with the TMP. I wasn't thrilled to fight Krauser again either. I like Ada and her persistent smugness too, I just didn't enjoy the sidestories as much as the main game. RE4 still absolutely rules though.

It's worth remembering that Assignment Ada was basically a bonus mode tacked onto the original game whereas Separate Ways was an actual campaign added in after the fact. That's kinda why there is a big gap between them.

No Mercy doesn't count, you need to get an A in the 3rd stage to unlock the 4th, then repeat with every unlocked stage to get the next one. A's in levels 1 and 2 don't do anything.

For anyone interested, the japanese version of the HD REmake is coming out today (Only for PS3 and 360 so far.), it's already up on the XBox360 Live marketplace, I'm still waiting for it to release on PSN.

While it's already known, that the asia release features english texts, it's now confirmed that the japanese version does too and a few other european languages as well. So you can go ahead and buy whichever version you want and wonder why they won't release the game in the west until next year.

They're releasing it in like January right? It'll be something to do with release windows, like when they delay some movies purposefully for a dry season.

Apparently you can play as RE5 BSAA Chris and Jill. God I love Jill In that little baseball cap.
