Lol, I wanna play that evil dude in the game!

Awesome moves! I think he has maxed Bstep! Haha

That "evil dude" is Albert F'ucking Wesker.

Also, it's a shame I won't be able to play this game.

lol the music is great. xDD
which console is this?

It is a sad day when someone does not recognize Albert Wesker.

And holy... So Albert's officially a god now? I knew it was only a matter of time. I think I'll do just about anything I have to to play this game.

I found the Controls kinda stupid in this game, the knife is so limited and switching weapons is so slow. Moving around was also retarded.

Great game still, but controls i think will be the only factor lowering in its chance of game of the year.

I will still be buying this game.

Capcom, or someone else, announced that they will be adding a "Gears" type of control type. Hopefully, this will get rid of some of the control flaws that we both see.

I can't stand the whole idea of waiting with your knife out for one of the enemies to come to you. Then you realize that you're to far away and move up to just pull out your knife then get hit. Although, the game will be worth it and I can get used to the controls.

Didn't you guys play Resident Evil 4? The way you described using the knife sounds just like in RE4. You could only swing it in stationary positions. It was so easy to use, though. Hold R to ready weapon; hold L to ready knife. A activates whichever is ready.

Am I misunderstanding? Did they change how it was used in RE5? RE5 looks very similar to RE4. I thought the controls were great in RE4.

I'm going to grow some balls and admit that I've never in my life played a RE game. I had a GameCube but was far too prepubescent and obsessed with Wind Waker (I was in my little Zelda phase that every game goes through) to care about the zombies and gore involved in RE4.

I played the RE5 demo a few days ago. It was fun, and though I'm probably going to have to read up the summaries of all of the other Resident Evils (Assuming this one follows some sort of story since you guys keep talking about this Albert guy), I'm gonna buy this on release fosho.

inb4 I get made fun of for not experiencing RE4 .

Don't feel too bad. I haven't played all the RE games, either. I've only played RE, RE2 and RE4.

But yeah, you really need to play RE4. The ending to RE4 is what builds the story for RE5 (especially with Albert Wesker). And it's one of the best games ever made, anyway.

Yeah... basically, when I was 12 or 13, I spent all summer working to save up for a 360. When summer was over, I was $150 short of buying the cheapest 360 bundle. I made a move that I still regret today, and I sold off my Gamecube along with all 25+ of it's games. Gamestop really knows how to rip f(uckers off, and looking back at all of the games I enjoyed on my Gamecube (Animal Crossing, Wind Waker, SSBM, and the Twilight Princess I never got to play), my piss is brought to a boil.

In fact, just typing this out makes me wonder what the price on a used Gamecube is nowadays. Maybe when I work again in a few months, I'll chip out $100 for a GC and some games I never got to enjoy.

I played the sh'it out of RE4, including getting the Handcannon from Merc Mode and even doing a Professional run without ever using the Merchant. Sh'it was damn hard.

I'm with greg. I've never played any RE game. Ever.

and even doing a Professional run without ever using the Merchant.

Okay, now I can't say I've done that. haha

Come on guys! You're missing out.

How could anyone not have played an RE game? I could understand if you're underage b& like Greg, but come on...

This is now a general RE thread.

Great, just great, now I want to play Resident Evil. Looks like I am going to have dust off the old Gamecube and find someone I can borrow RE4 from >_>.

This is now a general RE thread.

Sounds good to me.

I've never played RE0 (no desire to play that one at all) RE3 or Code Veronica, but I know most of their storyline. I don't really know what goes on in Chronicles. What's the point of that one? It has an ending relevant to Wesker obtaining some secrets or something... I dunno.

 Spoiler

Veronica is probably the biggest influence on the RE5 story, right? I know Wesker got a rare T-Virus sample from that game, and the hatred between Wesker and Chris developed in that game, too.

So Wesker has that sample and the Plagas sample from RE4. And he has something important (?) from Chronicles. Is the combination of all that how he made himself into a god?

I'd really like to know the plot of RE5.

RE0 wasn't that bad. It's still worth a play through if you ever get a chance. But that damn leech monster...

 Spoiler

From what I remember, Wesker was already somewhat of a "god" in Code Veronica. He had those red eyes and was ruining Chris' sh'it while barely lifting a finger. It's also rumored Jill will make an appearance, because her gravestone was shown in one of the trailers. You and I both know she's not really dead.

 Spoiler

Okay, I didn't know that. When and how did his transformation start? He wasn't capable of things like teleportation in Veronica yet, was he? The heck has he been doing?

Oh, of course. I wonder how that's gonna play into the story... I wonder so many things, dangit.

Have you played Chronicles? That one doesn't even have much good/new gameplay, does it?

 Spoiler

He started being god-like after the first RE game. After the Tyrant impaled him and tossed him aside he injected himself with an experimental virus provided by William Birkin. The virus brought him back to life, augmenting him with superhuman strength and agility. That's just from what I remember anyway.

I haven't played Chronicals though. I always assumed it was just a rail shooter based on the game.
