ItsaMii said: I can not understand how find RE plot lame and at the same time praise SH 2 plot. It would be like Stalin saying Pol Pot is an asshole. Why pretend games can have plots as good as literature classics? That is why games should be fun to play above all else. |
Actually, each game in the Silent Hill series usually has a damn good story. (Well, except for 3.) The first game was already good enough that they made pretty much the only good video game movie ever made out of it, and 2 is even better. (And 4 is even better than 2, despite some horrible design decisions that pretty negatively impact the rest of the game.)
Resident Evil's story is the equivalent of a 1950s 'B' movie: horrible when taken seriously, and with no real artistic value, but at least decently entertaining when you just laugh along with it.
"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
