I think this man is onto something :3 | |
Rule #32 from "The Idiots Guide For The Complete Bitch". ROFL | |
I'm surprised that he didn't mention the major annoyance of the lack of movement when shooting? | |
today you cant believe anymore these sites and magazines. they say to every game "its good". the same with crysis. all the sites and mags say its awesome blah blah and then you hear many complains about it. the same with RE 4. like you, they say its awesome and people like me who say its crap. have you ever played RE 4 on the PC??? well, for the PC you like to use your mouse in a shooter. yes, i know, there is a mousepatch, but its useless. and before you say "yeah, PC is different", well, many who played it on the console dint like the game at all. also because of the controls, graphics, gameplay. they also say its the worst RE ever. and i think you are completely backwards retarded. do you think all shooters have rock music and regenerating health?? PS. | |
i strongly agree with you there. thats why i dont bother to buy it. i am sure even for the PC they wont change that. | |
One of the best reviews Yahtzee has done. I lol'd. Mainly comlang about your sidekick, that bit was hilarous. | |
It's always best to watch Yahtzee's reviews when you've played the game yourself ^^ It's nice to play through the game with a friend, though! | |
Good video, though some people found the inventory system to bring a more tactical feel to the game. Plus, wasn't the whole spear chucking, traditional clothes thing explained to be a part of Las Plagas? Something about the mind regressing to traditions and violence. Much like the Spanish peasants in the black robes in RE4. | |
Holy Cow, Res Evil in an Amish Village! Fucking awesome idea LOL. "Now don't ye be fretting ye little head off thar Goody Shallowplot!" | |
That was some nice inventory xD! | |
I Don't agree with everything mentioned in the review. I was actually pleasantly surprized of Sheva's AI. I'm normally a "if it has to be done right, ill do it myself" gamer, so I was a bit worried seeing I had a sidekick from the start. But that quickly changed. -Whenever either of us got low health, she used medicine. I ended up giving her all the medicine I found, since healing me is top priority for her if my health gets dangerously low. The itemization seems to alter with your inventory, so when your both low on health, the chances are high that youll find a herb in the next crate you smash. So I never had health problems on my first playthrough (on normal, mind you) -She seemed to prefer the gun. What did I do? I upgraded hers to make her even better with it. While using all the bigger (fun) guns myself. Its easier to press the O button whenever I came across handgun ammo instead of hoarding it myself. When I wanted her to use the rifle, so I just exchanged her pistol for my rifle. easy. -Wtf? shes taking mah shotgun ammo! oh! She gives it to me. thats cool. Also, if she has more of the ammo your using, she'll give you more once you get inventory space. (for example, your using up tons firing at a boss) -She seems to handle herself well in fights. Shes a pretty good shot too. I had no problems letting her handle special weapons like the flamethrower and the aiming laser suring boss fights. I kept her in the cover stance mostly though, making her stay behind me most of the time. Wich is very good if your fighting a chainsaw majini or a reaper. The inventory thing, well. I suppose each slot can be seen as a separate pocket. You wouldnt want your (extremely valuable) rotten egg to be crushed because you tried to stick a magnum with it, right? The armor taking a slot might represent the wearer being encumbered by it enough to have one less pocket free. | |
I'm a bit surprised that he didn't mention the shooting irritants of gameplay, namely you can't shoot while moving, but instead have to pivot and aim lie your toes are staked into the ground. Now forgive me for asking for Halo or COD like gameplay, but that's an annoyance. Besides, there were plenty of fixes for it. The more movement you have, the less accurate you are. I just think that in most games where things are chasing you, moving away from them sounds a bit like a priority, not an afterthought. | |
I noticed the same in RE4. But yeah, if your dad walked in on you while your playing the beginning, he must think Chris just yelled the N-word in there. | |
WOOO but its not workin =[ ill find a way to make it work though!! | |
Hahaa. Side stepping a pot hole only to fall off a bridge. That's putting it perfectly. | |
i liked the original resident evil, its a shame to see theyre still trying to beat money out of what must surely be by now a dead horse after all these years | |
I found every argument valid. I miss the Merchant... I was kinda hoping he'd tear Halo Wars a new one, but hey, I can get the idea if he never wants to touch that particular slop bucket hehe. | |
lol hilarious yet at the same time bad | |
Are you referring to the hooker joke? If so, I thoroughly agree. On the other hand, that was the most humourous review in a while. | |
Ooooooh yes, theres a few minor things too, if theres no surprse his comedic style falls flat on its face ¬_¬ | |
But you can play an African girl killing African people....how is that different? I don't care how dark her skin is or how light Chris skin color is. If you sit here complaining about racism that "Oh boo hoo I am shooting people that are not white." Tell you what, let's make Resident Evil 6: The Melting pot effect. Velios, I think you are racist because of you think a game is racist just because of the skin color and not the fact that "Hey, they are trying to kill us." People who claim racism are racist themselves. It happens every time. How many time do you see a black man claim white people are racist yet call a white man "Cracker" or "whitey" Also yes this game was made by the Japanese, but what difference does this make? This is why I hate society today...in fact this is why I hate humanity period. You human are so stupid and close-minded that everything is either sexual or political. | |
Actually the game that "popularized" quick time events was God of War, hence the expression "a la god of war" whenever someone discusses quick time events not "a la Resident evil 4". And who gives a shiz about the inventory, in my case I used the inventory not quite a lot and the times I used it I didn't mind it because we organized as best we could, the only problem was when soloing the campaign but that's not the real issue. The issue is the game itself, the bosses are a joke even in veteran, and the boss fight at the end with "Mutant Wesker"is finished in one single event involving "context sensitive" button presses and that's it. The horror factor is completely gone, there is never one time in the game in which you jump in your seat nor is there tension enough in the atmosphere of the whole game to make you feel what past RE tittles, included RE4 at times, used to put you through. It's an all out third person action game and in that sense, there are better action games out there than this one with far better controls. | |
Amazing, while i laugh my head off every ZP but i had noticed it getting slow a few weeks back but later it has been literally better than ever | |
No shit, so is every other gamer. | |
I liked the crab | |
I found a way to get around the "Sheva uses nothing but the handgun" problem. Hold O, then press up to make Chris yell "Go!" and Sheva will go in Attack mode (oposite of Cover) She will equip her most powerful weapon. I gave her a machine gun and a rifle, she only used the machine gun indoors and in close quarters, rifle against distant enemies. I decided to stand back a bit and take potshots with the upgraded handgun i'd normally let Sheva use. She wont follow you around however, and I noticed alot of enemies will tend to come after her. I got pretty nervous when I fought the first chainsaw majini, but she backed off well enough to not get her head sawn off, with me chasing them unloading my shotgun in his back. Youre gonna have to make sure you got some medicine on you, since she will most likely not be able to help you out fast enough when your health is critical. And exchaning items will be a bit bothersome at times since she wont stay close to you most of them time. tapping O once will call her back to you but put her back in cover mode. | |
Because it's not annoying and neither a problem in the game, unless you're used to play mostly FPSes and the likes. | |
are you kidding? how is not being able to move not a problem? yes its not impossible to play with "pivot-action shooting" but come on things are suppose to improve, and not just graphics. | |
Let's see, there was a pistol, switchblade, Nintendo DS, a Creme Egg, Branston Pickle, Bean-o Lottery Card, some weird mannequin chess piece, that Gun Shop Telephone Booth from the Far Cry 2 review, and a.... "unmentionable woman's joy." Nice. | |
http://www.cliffsnotes.com/WileyCDA/ Stop trying to be smart and correcting people because you suck at it. | |
I never said the game was racist, nor do I think it is. I was pointing out that there is a difference in complaining that in the previous games you were killing Caucasians... with a Caucasian and people complaining about killing coloured people with a Caucasian. I bear no ill thoughts towards this game(except for the laughable partner AI), nor towards Capcom who I enjoy their games. | |
I played the whole game my first two times through with an online friend. No quirks about co-op and the buddy system but yeah, inventory is lame. Mercenaries is a hoot with someone you know. | |
Spot on review. My favourite in a long time. Nailed the game on its hail... Also, on a somewhat related note I'd love to nail that triple cu-(white noise) | |
I haven't played it yet because I'm poor and can't afford a PS3 (sony fanboy here flame later). I never thought i would ever hear someone wanting ashley around for ANYTHING. Good to know they took every nice thing about RE4 and got rid of it. Personally I think real-time management is not a great thing other than programming a d-pad for weapon switches. Inventory should not be done with 55 quote unquote zombies having at ur shins. Also, I'm sad about eggs being the same size as assault rifles. Lots of laughs in this one though, see you next wednesday. :D | |
