The Resident Evil Thread

I think it's going to coincide with the physical release, which is March 17th I think

Not going to look for those spoilers on what viruses are being used, but I speculate that the enemies from the first episode have some kind of cut form of the Las Plagas. This is based on those tumorous growths some of them are sporting and the fact that shining the flashlight on them causes them to turn into puddles of goo.

I was playing Raid Mode, trying to unlock [blackout]Leon[/blackout], and just happen to think about the whole life crystal thing it does that had people up in arms when I was looking at the shop. I literally forgot it even existed until that point. I can't help but chuckle how big a stink people made over something so damn worthless just a month or so ago.

 

[The Hill]

The very mention of microtransactions makes people draw some wild conclusions.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Finished the last episode of Revelations 2. I have to say the game really exceeded my expectations. An absolute steal for $25 (even for the retail $40). My only real disappointments is how Claire's final episode is way too short, and there were points where it very obvious this was a budget title (some of the backgrounds are just urg). But really, outside that, a great title. As a solo experience, this is probably my favorite game since RE4, maybe even RE2.

  Resident Evil: Revelations 2 Gets Episode 4 and Physical Release
  
  Posted on March 17, 2015 | No Comments
  Resident Evil: Revelations 2 concludes this week, and the physical release is also out. Continue Reading...

Capcom’s newest weekly experiment with Resident Evil ends this week with the final episode of Resident Evil: Revelations 2.
However, all things being equal, I tend to be someone who prefers physical copies of games since they look good on my shelves and I’m actually a mutated magpie that looks like a human. Fortunately for myself and my fellow magpie-person hybrids, Capcom has also released physical copies today.

​

In addition to concluding the story of the game, episode 4 will also have goodies like more raid mode characters and missions. The final episode is available for download today on PS3 , PS4, and XBox One. It will be available on Steam around 9-10 PM tonight and on XBox 360 early tomorrow.

Ah, Revelations 2 was so good. I can't think of a game I paid $25 for that could've easily been worth $60.

[Tron Bonne]

Yeah, I don't think they shipped 1 million since there was, for the most part, nothing to actually ship...

 

[Havok83]

Remake is $14.99 on PSN for Plus this week. I regret being lured into buying it with the PS 10% discount code bc I still havent played it.

 

[Tron Bonne]

It's worth $20, but I feel like $15 is probably the price it should've been.

Industry
Expect more HD remasters from Capcom
Published 19 hours ago. 135 comments.

They'll be one of Capcom's "key business activities."

Expect more downloadable high-definition remasters from Capcom. In the Q&A for their latest financial results, Capcom said that thanks to the Resident Evil remaster’s high sales, HD remasters will be one of the company’s “key business activities” moving forward.
“HD remasters of our catalog hit titles will be one of our key business activities,” Capcom said in the Q&A. “Overseas, it is becoming difficult to sell these lower-priced and re-mastered titles at stores because of the declining number of stores and sales area limitations. Therefore, we started aggressive digital download sales activities.
“These activities created new demand for these titles. For example, overseas download sales of Resident Evil (HD Remastered) in the past fiscal year were far higher than we expected. It is not a risk but rather the growth of the download sales channel gives users more options. We regard this as growth in opportunities to have allow access for more people to enjoy our games.”
Capcom’s next remaster, Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition, will launch for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC next month. Besides that, a remaster for Resident Evil Zero was leaked prior to the launch of the Resident Evil remaster.
Thanks, @shinobi602.

I still need to play this. I bought it when it went to $15 on XBL, but I haven't gotten around to it.

 

[Tron Bonne]

It's pretty prime, probably the best of the old school REs. Good toss up between that and RE2, I think. Zero is pretty decent, too, though not nearly as good.

 

[james-in-cali]

I just got through all of the chapters, I have a couple nitpicks but this is the best RE game since 4. I am going to have to go back through multiple times and collect all the hidden items, this is the first time since 5 I have even cared to play story mode more than once.

 

[Tron Bonne]

You talking about Revelations 2? Yeah, I agree, it's great.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Just read that Resident Evil Zero HD has officially been announced. No English links are up yet that I'm aware of, but several Japanese outlets have been reporting it. It'll be on PS3, PS4, X360, Xbone and PC (just like REMake HD), but a little more surprising is that it's being announced as an early 2016 title. That surprised me, I was thinking it'd come out this summer. People are speculating it might be because RE7 could possibly launch this year (it sounds unlikely, but RE6 was officially announced and released in the same year, I believe, so it's not unprecedented), and them having this out in early 2016 could mean they would've released a RE game in every quarter or 2015. But that's pure speculation.

The price has not been mentioned, but it's probably a safe bet it'll be $20 like REMake HD. Zero is pretty solid overall, but I don't know if I'll grab it or not really. I had it on the GCN way back in the day, and it's not in the upper tier even if I found it enjoyable. But it's good for those who have been unable to play it due to it's exclusiveness before. It's worth playing, definitely, if you enjoy the old school style of RE.

EDIT: And lol, some people are complaining about it being cross gen, too. This, a remaster of a game from ****ing 2002. Haha, oh man, some people are just so up in the air they don't know what's clouds and what's horse**** anymore.
