I'm not sure if I've played any really highly anticpated PS2 games that have disappointed me lately. I was pretty brutal on FFX-2 when it came out, but that was a while ago. But you're not necessarily the right person to be calling me black. ;)
Quote:Obviously you dont want to have fun with the game, you seem to be having more fun putting it down.
Huh??? I love the game! By the time I finish it, it might very well overtake MGS3. I've even stated several times that it's a great game. One of the best I've played this gen, and I still have a ways to go.
Quote:You complain about things that make no sense, you say you've never been in a kill-or-be-killed situation when every Ganado has the ability to kill you in one hit along with a half dozen other enemies that can chop off your head when you're at half-health.I had my head chopped off once after I took the King's Chalice or whatever it was. And that was only because I had 0 health left.
Quote:Not to mention that when Ashley is with you, if she dies or is carried off, it's game over.again, once that this has happened. Both of these occasions were simply because I was experimenting with how to kill the new enemies, or exploring the new areas.
Quote:With all of things going on, you say you've never been in a kill or be killed situation? You've never died once?I've died 5 times. The majority of them because I was exploring/experiementing and hardly bothered to defend myself. And a couple of times early on when I thought the game would be about ammo conservation.
Quote:I'm a pretty good gamer and I died around a dozen or so times on normal and like 50 on pro :D You'll see why later on in the game when you get to the island research centers.
Oh goody! I was hoping that there would be much more after the castle. Do more powerful weapons become available? I haven't upgraded any of my guns, or bought anything (other than the TMP), as I was saving buying new guns for later.
Quote:Like I said though, the game plays how you want it to play, you can kill all the enemies or run from them. I mean you haven't even finished the game on normal yet and you're totally passing judgement on it.
I'm not totally passing judgement on it. I think it's a great game, and I even said earlier that it gets better the more and more I play it. These were just preliminary complaints that, as of yet, have no subsided.
Quote:How you can say that RE4 isn't a survival horror game, and more an action game is beyond me. It makes absolutely no sense. Since the very first game, you were firing shotguns at giant snakes,That was a fond memory, trying to kill that snake with my pistol as I didn't want to use my shotgun ammo.
Quote:solving "push the statue here" puzzles and getting popcorn shocks from dogs jumping out of windows or hands grabbing you from bath tubs, you even use a rocket launcher to destroy the end boss: It's just as much of an action game as any other Resident Evil. The horror part comes from the enemies you're facing and the atmosphere.REmake and the original RE, along with RE2 and RE3 have atmosphere in spades over this game. It is nice that you can hear the Ganados mumbling in their language when they're around, and the haunting music that will appear when there's an enemy, but all this is for naught as there is no hint of danger.
Quote:The only thing that REmake has over RE4 in that department is Alison Chains (I forgot her real name) and the Crimsons, of course.Oh God, the Crimsons were the best fucking that that ever happened to RE. :D:D:D:D
Quote:And you're still trying to argue that the Ganados are just like Zombies! wtf? Read your post.... read over the text where you say that the Ganados are just like zombies... give it a minute... it will sink in... feeling it yet? That feeling is called DUMBASS.90% of the Ganados I've been fighting have been slow moving zombies that pose no real threat. Oh sure, they swing a weapon. Big deal.
Quote:Zombies dont jump, they dont throw weapons or light sticks of dynamite on fireSure that's nice, but that isn't the majority of Ganados you're fighting. And they still pose no threat. They do alter the gameplay a bit, and require you to shoot their arms so they drop their weapon.. which is nice.
Quote:Zombies drag their feet and move slowly, make an "auuugh" sound and fall down alot all while trying to eat you oh and they're ROTTED.Other than the fact that they're rotted, sounds exactly like the majority of enemies I face in this game.
Quote:The *only* similarity between Ganados and Zombies is that both of these monster types were once human. You say it's more of a story change than a gameplay change, yes, you're right, I really hated the chaingun weilding zombies in REmake too. DUMBASS.You mean chainSAW?? Either way, I've never faced a chaingun weilding Ganados, and only a few chainsaw ones. Which are just basically more powerful zombies. :P Which is a nice change, still not scary, though. :P
If i had a dollar for every time i ran out of hair in the middle of a spoon making contest id only eat your children with a side of slaw and THOSE ARENT PILLOWS!!
