Resident Evil Thread

[OB1]

Absolutely nothing new? I've never played the original RE, but I've read from several accredited resources about the new areas...and I believe them. At any rate, I HAVE SEEN screens of the original RE, and I was awe-struck at them. There can be no comparison between the two.

Oy, it was a slight exaggeration. And yes of course the graphics are better, but it's still pre-rendered crap. Good thing Capcom finally learned that real-time is better and are fixing it with RE4.

Same shit puzzles, same shit controls. I also happen to know that several puzzles have been redesigned; including the one in the art gallery. Though it's still ridicuously easy, alleged, the older one was even worse.

Well of course the puzzles aren't identical to each other. I meant that there are the same kinds of puzzles. Find the stupid clover-shaped crest for the stupid clover-shaped hole. Reminds me of a certain PA strip:

...all just non-stop action fests, with no rationing of ammo, health or saves needed. They gave you too much...

Way too much...? Doom gave you way too much. In RE, with the exception of conventional 9mm ammo later in the game, the rest of it is a masterful struggle... I have 80 9mm rounds, 6 magnum ones, 6 shotgun and 6 conventional grenade ones...as well as 2 battery packs and 4 or 5 daggers. As for saves, they MUST be rationed... but im not sure that's really a good thing.

Um... Doom isn't a survival-horrow game. Well Doom 3 is, but you weren't talking about that now were you?
