I've only played the Leon segment so far, but I dug it. It's awesome to be shooting zombies again for once, and I like the slow burn atmosphere as well as the new control scheme. It feels like its own new thing instead of a less good version of RE4 like 5 ended up being.

I've completed Leon and Jake's campaigns so far. Time for an unpopular opinion: this game loving owns. Seriously, it's at least ten times better than RE 5, I don't understand how anyone could feel different. The new mechanics feel really good to me (and the implementation of melee is fuckawesome). There's nothing like diving out of the way of a zombie that's just flung itself at you, then shuffling backwards on the floor while firing frantically at it as it tries to crawl towards you. It feels like a proper modernization of classic Resident Evil.

Man, I'm just not down with the hate on this game. Everything about it is better than 5. I think it got such a negative backlash because none of the crunch-time reviewers bothered to learn how to play it. I'm just now starting my professional mode playthrough and I'm not tired of the game in the least, unlike 5 which was a total slog. The melee and movement system is this is just so versatile and satisfying, and I love the integration of the website, it really is a great way to add replay incentive. The partner system is no longer bullshit, the bosses are epic and fun again, it has replay value up the rear end, and is genuinely good at making situations intense without being unfair about it. For my money, this is the best offering since 4.

^ Wow, way to make my day Capcom. Resident Evil 2 is 15 years old, wow. Guess it's time for what seems like my yearly play-through. The new patch is good, although admittedly that functionality should've been there to begin with. However, I'm one of the few fans of this game, and I'm thrilled they're giving it so much post-release support between this and the integrated website. I used the chapter section select to knock out the hidden Jake and Ada trophies real quick. Will make wrapping up the missing serpent emblems much easier, too.

I have to admit, there's not a whole lot I miss from 5. For me, 6 is a much more kinetic and less frustrating experience, and feels a lot more like Resident Evil than 5 did. However, 5 had Wesker. Jake can't compete with that. Man, my money was on Jake being one of those Wesker kids mentioned in the memo from Lost In Nightmares (which is secretly the best Resident Evil game of the decade). I wonder if Capcom will ever pick up that potential plot thread or just totally forget about it.

I'll probably skip anything multiplayer (as I did with RE 5) because it seems like it would be either dead, awful, or both. I'll gladly kick in for more mercenaries poo poo though. Anyone with a 360 who has any thoughts on the multiplayer stuff?

You can unlock the EX3 costumes starting today, and also there's new mercenary maps although they're not really that good imo. I was able to unlock a couple more costumes on them though, so ymmv. Anyone have any idea what this new "creature level" is on the website? Related to agent hunt maybe?

Even though the entire article is just conjecture and hearsay, I have to say I'm really sick of everything going for the reboot the minute something in a franchise gets a mediocre reception. Just make the next one better, drat. No need to drop everything and run.

If you think about it, those are really the only characters at that point that have any reason or stake in assaulting the facility where the entirety of Umbrella's assets are backed up. Barry hosed off to Canada to be a family man, Billy is out living a new identity, Sherry is under government custody and Leon is coerced into working for them, and everyone else is dead or just trying to live a zombie free life. But I digress; plot in Resident Evil games. I'm just saying, it more or less portrays the major final encounter with (or assault on) Umbrella, anti-climactic or not. Seeing as how it all comes back to Chris, Wesker, and Jill when all is said and done, it doesn't seem that inappropriate. MarioTeachesWiping fucked around with this message at 07:15 on Feb 5, 2013 |

There's now a benchmarking tool available for the PC version, but I can't get the thing to eclipse even 30 fps no matter what settings I use or adjust, and I'm running a pretty decent setup here. Maybe it's just poorly optimized?

So. Resident Evil 5 on PC is using my integrated intel graphics instead of the Nvidia card I have. This is probably due to that stupid Optimus technology, but when I try to force it to use the card in the control panel, I can't. It's greyed out, forcing it to run on the integrated graphics. I haven't had this problem with other games. Is there a workaround for this? Usually I can just force the program to use the Nvidia card through the control panel. Edit: Figured it out, just had to rename the executable. MarioTeachesWiping fucked around with this message at 15:35 on Mar 20, 2013 |

Dan Didio posted:I picked up RE6 when it was on sale furing the Xbox Live thing they did recently. I've been kind of struggling with it. I'm having the same troubles I had when I first played it, namely that the game doesn't explain things very well, or convey information to you effectively at all. I am enjoying it a lot more than I did when I first played it, but I thought it was pretty terrible when I first gave it a shot, so that doesn't mean much. Edit: Helena is the last person in this game that I'd deem "interesting", and that's really saying something.

I cannot get Resident Evil 5 to use my graphics card. I have a laptop with that stupid Nvidia Optimus technology. RE 5 insists on using the onboard intel graphics instead, and the usual method of forcing the graphics processor through the nvidia control panel isn't working, it's just greyed out on "integrated graphics". Has anyone else had this issue, and is there a workaround, or am I just screwed?

catlord posted:I dunno, so far RE6 just doesn't seem to be doing it for me. I'm only in Leon chapter 2, but various design choice keep nagging at me and it's making it hard to enjoy when I pull of suplexing like, a dozen zombies in a row. Level and encounter design, for one. I keep dying, which wouldn't be an issue but none of my deaths feel fair. I meet a zombie or two and suddenly I have no health. Maybe Leon's HUD is just messing with me, I don't remember having that problem in 4. The camera bothers me too, is there an option I missed somewhere so that I don't get a low angle when I run?

Code Veronica is the perfect mix of plot insanity and hammy dialogue combined with legitimately creepy atmosphere. It's the perfect example of what I come to the series for and remains my favorite game in the series to this day. Darkside Chronicles version owns too because it turns all that poo poo up to 11.
