I bought the japanese PS3 version of RE4, because I had money to waste and I always wanted to play through the Ashley part with the classic camera angles. Anyway, am I crazy or is this version technically inferior to the US PS3 release? It seems to use less AA, textures are more washed out and the framerate is worse. Afterwards I booted up the US version just to make sure. What's up with that? Did they do the HD conversions for both regions seperately or how could this happen?

Is there some sort of RE event or announcement on the horizon? It was really weird driving home from work tonight and seeing black military style trucks with UMBRELLA CORPORATION painted on the side next to me.

Alright, go seek out a team of one or two extremely competent buff men with no personality that have a skeleton thin sidekick girl that can wield firearms that should knock her on her rear end with each shot. Do not approach them until all mildly competent looking soldier men around them die horribly and it's just those two. Be sure to confirm all soldier men have died. There may be a back up squad of soldier men. DO NOT ENGAGE UNTIL THEY ARE DEAD TOO! Trust me on this. Your safety is not guaranteed otherwise.

Okay first off, try to check how many items you can carry at once. If you can carry more than 10, get ready to run fast, the zombies are gonna be running too.

If you didn't bait your friend across the bridge in RE5 and then let go of the lever you weren't playing the game right.

amitlu posted:On the console versions of the game I used to agree with the complaint about bullet sponge bosses that didn't have notable hit reactions to tell you are doing damage. However on the PC version I found that some weak spots are way easier to see with the higher resolution, and they didn't take nearly as long to kill when using mouse aim to target them. The Dino boss for example I found the weak point on his back near impossible to see on the 360 version, and even when I knew it was there I found it pretty hard to hit so it took a long time to damage him. On the PC version it was no problem at all. ...the bosses had weak spots? Okay, did this loving game explain anything?

The best part is you're not really intended to shoot the weak spot on the Dino's back if you're playing as Leon & Helena, Ada attacks that one. You can still shoot it with proper angles but you have his head (a much better target in my experience) or getting under his legs and going for the torso area, bunch of eyeball packets there that ooze boss juice. What you have to keep in mind about RE6 is that it's just really unpolished and there's all this weird stuff that won't make sense and unless you play a really long time you'd never notice, like for example I really don't think that weak spot on his back does a lot of damage compared to hitting his head, and the one in his torso is negligible damage. This is all moot as you should be using remote bombs planted next to convenient oil barrels and punching him to death  Then you fight his stupid dog form and the weak spots around his extended head bleed like sensitive weak spots but don't do the kind of damage you'd expect and the fight is always unnecessarily long  Ibram Gaunt posted:If you didn't bait your friend across the bridge in RE5 and then let go of the lever you weren't playing the game right.

You don't need huge glowing weak spots or the game taking control away from you to show you that a weak spot just opened up if you have attacks plink off on most of the enemy, but give really satisfying squishy noises and effects when you hit weak points.

The problem with RE6 is that they blew their load on a next-gen graphics engine and paid like six or seven hundred people to draw Leon's flippy hair and make rain effects on clothes

As someone that has spent way too many dollars on steam buying anything labeled "co-op", this is false. There are many games that are not fun with friends, even with lots of alcohol involved.

I hated RE 5 at first but grew to like it once I played co-op. The single player is a huge pain though. On the other hand, everyone kept talking about RE 6 was absolutely irredeemably awful and I found it a lot of fun, even on single player which only became moreso on co-op. Sure there's some annoying setpieces but no more or less than RE 5's. I can only guess it's because I got it on PC which presumably was up to date with the current console versions and the patches made it easier/better or something? I just didn't seem to have half of the trouble some people in this thread had with the game.

To me, RE6's setpieces were more annoying because they largely changed the gameplay. I don't mind gimmick fights but I really hate gimmick vehicle segments or whatever. It's the same reason the jeep segment in RE5 is my least favorite part of the game.

RE5 is about waiting for player 2 to do something and hopefully survive. RE6 makes player 2 into a Tails metaphor. Useless and suicidal, but not a Game Over.

That's basically it. Sheva loved to casually walk up to instant kill enemies and knife them or something equally stupid which resulted in her death and me getting a crappier rank at the end of the chapter. At least RE 6 made them mostly invincible and had infinite ammo so you didn't have to babysit them all the time in single player.
