as long as they use the control scheme from resident evil 4 and resident evil 5, then i'm game. if it's the rigid one they used up until resident evil 0, then capcom can kiss one customer goodbye. i can't go back to the old one now. it's the same way that goldeneye's control scheme is broken to me now.

Of bad camera angles and clunky controls. I hope not haha. They should keep the same control style they have now but maybe back to the old atmosphere. It's obvious RE5 was too much action not enough horror.

to me RE5 was RE4 with co-op, they were both action-horror games and were completely different from the PRE-RE4 installments
I want Capcom to return to the survival horror roots but I know they're not since the RE4 fanbase has become so vocal its likely they will keep the series an action horror
RE0.1,Remake,2,3,&CVX >>>RE4 & 5

those pre RE4 games will remain true survival horror, and what RE was supose to be. RE5 it was like i was having a "DAYMARE" not a nightmare a daymare, thats how bad it was. if only capcom understood what gamers really want

Imo, RE 4 was brilliant..but RE5 sucked major ass...

Do you guys feel negative about RE5 only or RE4 too ?

Im negative about both RE4&5 but more of RE4, I been playing the series since the first one released on the PS1 and I think RE4 killed the series (you wouldn't even know its RE if Capcom change the title, character names, and a few minutes of audio)

My thoughts exactly, RE4 really shocked me (i dont read about or watch trailers for games am anticipating)

RE4 killed the the Old RE, actually i was less disappointed by RE5 because it was pretty much what i was expecting after RE4

 

Thats why i dont understand how some people like RE4 and hate RE5?

Maybe they hate Chris >_>

I really like RE4 when i first played it, but i'm sick of it. RE5 was not very fun for me, i feel like Capcom just wants to go mainstream. I really miss the old RE style, there has got to be a way they can tweak the gameplay to be more like the old style without going back to pre-rendered backrounds. The GC RE4 old style videos looked awesome.

In the end i dont' think it's gonna happen, the new style has tapped into the popularity of 3rd person shooters this gen while maintaining many RE fans creating bigger sales.

retain the over the shoulder perspective but make ammo scarce and etc from the frst 3 games in the series

mikami should make another survival horror that will triumph over the current RE series

Awful Controls, Bad camera and no idea where your shooting FTL!!



RE 4 still had some elements of survival horror in its game play. RE5 just killed survival horror on the whole

That doesn't fix anything.  It still wouldn't be scary.  The fixed camera and the horror go hand in hand.

RE5 lacks atmosphere, it's just an action game without horror.
