what
is there not to love about RE4? name me some of its flaws. The only
thing that could have been better are the controls, I am not a big fan
of the tank like controls but that's how every RE game is so meh --- ... |

know, if ToS wins comfortably over RE5 in a night match, I'll feel a

yes, trends should be pretty much exactly the same as Lloyd/Wesker (and hopefully the % exactly the same, that would give me a great oracle) --- Oracle contest - 39th Today's pick: Tales of Symphonia - 54.61% Status: |

From: Chaotic Mind | #308 Controls aren't bad at all. They suit the game perfectly. Unlike RE5, which takes far too much advantage of superior technology and puts a million enemies onscreen at once, which makes it less fun. --- "The great fallacy is that the game is first and foremost about winning.

RE4
is one of those games I'll never get the love for. I played it on PS2
for like an hour or two, and hated the controls, and I'm not a fan of
survival horror games to begin with, so I was getting all freaked out
playing it, and that wasn't fun. --- http://i56.tinypic.com/o5thna.jpg http://i51.tinypic.com/33kbvba.jpg |

You just answered your own question. The controls are very functional, definitely not a flaw. They could have been better though, still never got in my way of enjoying the game. --- ... |

I
just check my winner choices and I missed one so far, I can never get a
perfect run. That's the only reason I do this too I don't know why but
I just wanna try and get all them right just once. RB2 beat Deus EX I
didn't expect that cause I remember people always mentioning it before
when talking about great games. --- Gt: UsefulCarnivore |

re4
controls are good deal better than other RE games.. IMO the best
version to play is the wii version.. I enjoyed the GC version, but the
wii was just so much more fun.. You can perform everything faster. --- ---- Sonic_Factor |
Team Rocket Elite (Moderator) | Posted 10/25/2010 9:27:30 PM | message detail |
If this were a day match, I think Resident Evil 5 would have a 158% better chance at winning. Resident Evil is worse in the day. Tales of Symphonia is better in the day. RE5 defintely does NOT want a day match with Tales of Symphonia. --- "Let me believe what you've always believed! That living is wonderful!" "Thank you so much... Thank you for loving me." |

RE4
is definitely one of the best games ever released. It doesn't rank in
my top 10, but I really can't say anything negative about it. It's so
polished that I can safely compare it to Half-Life 2 and not feel
disgusted with myself. --- Good Times, Great Memories |
NoDicePwn | Posted 10/25/2010 9:31:04 PM | message detail |
The
original RE4 (Devil May Cry) is the far superior game, in my opinion.
Since you know, the controls are actually workable and you get to go
crazy just killing stuff instead of worrying about a horror part of it
and lame controls that won't do what you want. --- http://i56.tinypic.com/o5thna.jpg http://i51.tinypic.com/33kbvba.jpg |

The 'horror' aspect of RE4 is extremely mild. --- DFF |

I
just noticed I have Tales of Symphonia beating not only RE5, but God of
War. Unless God of War really stinks it up, I'm not looking in good
shape. ToS doesn't have this in the bag quite yet. RE5 got close to winning an update.... hmmmm..... As long as ToS wins, it should wreck havoc among brackets. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. So...what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |

PartOfYourWorld | Posted 10/25/2010 9:33:41 PM | message detail |
Assuming
this match follows DS/MM9 trends, RE5 will end at around 47%. Not bad,
especially if Tales goes on to have a good Round 2. --- Yoblazer: http://8board.webs.com/ariel.jpg Watch and you'll see... some day I'll be... part of your world! |
XxSoulxX | Posted 10/25/2010 9:33:56 PM | message detail |
DMC
(and games similar to that) are horrible. So repetitive and it's mostly
flash/special effects. Not a lot of meat to those types of games. I'm
saying this after playing DMC3, DMC4, God of War, God of War 2, and
Ninja Gaiden. They were all mediocre at best. --- Calling Pokemon RBY a top 10 game was the most insane contest jibba-jabba ever Woe unto he who sig bets with the near-invincible Lord High creativename |
Lopen | Posted 10/25/2010 9:34:01 PM | message detail |
I could see ToS being the bracket favorite today, if only by a little. That 3 seed should give it a lot of support it wouldn't otherwise get. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
HaRRicH | Posted 10/25/2010 9:34:09 PM | message detail |
Horror
or not, the tension's gonna be what gets me. I can barely play the
MGS-games (love 'em though). If it controls like RE1, then that's going
to doubly suck! --- Epona: shaped like a horse to eat some oats. http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg |

From: NoDicePwn | #335 I have yet to play DMC, to be fair. But if it's anything like Bayonetta I'll steer clear of it. And RE4 isn't scary at all, that's your problem and not the game's.

Albion is scared pretty easily though IIRC. I'm kind of like that Greyfeld guy in that way. I don't like stuff leaping out at me and making me jump, or all kinds of sounds all around me making me paranoid someone is getting ready to attack me, and RE4 had both of those things in spades when I played it for a few hours. I was too scared to go around even looking for collectibles cuz I was worried I'd get attacked without knowing. Its part of the reason I'm not a fan of FPS... I don't like being attacked without knowing which direction its coming from or who's attacking me, and RE4s camera angle does that same thing to me. --- http://i56.tinypic.com/o5thna.jpg http://i51.tinypic.com/33kbvba.jpg |

AxemPink | Posted 10/25/2010 9:37:31 PM | message detail |
If it controls like RE1, then that's going to doubly suck! It controls mostly like the other RE games, but the camera works different so the controls actually make some sense now. |
XIII_rocks | Posted 10/25/2010 9:38:53 PM | message detail |
Yeah,
original RE controls are rubbish, but... give RE4 the same controls but
a camera angle shift and suddenly they're great, and work perfectly
fine. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2q8zwvs.png |

I
gave up on my bracket the moment I realized that the contest wasn't
being put on Gamespot....aka, as soon as the contest started. My
bracket has RE5 winning but it also has a lot of other things that I
didn't really think about, cause I had meant to come back to it later,
which I never did. My entire ability to win rests on the battle
challenge. My life sucks. --- Knight of Shenaningans My brain is ruled by Strawberries! |
