Forums - Gaming - Resident Evil 7 Biohazard Metacritic Thread - (86 meta with 43 reviews!)

I like Resident Evil so even if I may not be able to play it on the Switch I still wish the franchise all the best.



Around the Network

After Ghostbusters-Answer the Call (which Meta said it was a good movie) I do not trust Metacritic anymore. I rather have 3 or 4 people I trust and watch their review/impressions.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

The only review I was really interested in, UploadVR. They played the whole game with PSVR and loved it.

I can no longer tell if the heavy breathing I hear is coming from my own mouth, or from the mouth of Ethan, the main protagonist I’m controlling in Resident Evil 7 on PS4 using a PS VR headset. Using my actual body, I lean forward on my couch, craning my neck around the in-game corner to my left, trying to see if Jack, the hulking mass of seemingly invincible mutated flesh, has passed by yet. Just before I take my step around the corner, much to my horror, Jack grabs me from behind and for a moment it’s as if I can feel his breath and spit on my face. He throws me to the ground, cursing at me, and raises his shovel high above his head. With a loud thud, he slams it down into my shin, slicing my leg in half. For a split second there’s the illusion of pain — a sudden twitch of realism — before Ethan bleeds out and dies not just before my eyes, but within myself, as I sit there stunned inside the immersive power of virtual reality.

Honestly, I don’t know if the world is ready for a game like Resident Evil 7: Biohazard in VR and that’s exactly what makes it so exhilarating.

Final Score: 9/10 – Amazing

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard sets a new bar for survival horror games and stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the best games in the franchise’s long history. By uniting elements from the past, such as the slow pacing, focus on exploration, mind-bending puzzles, and desperation for survival, with the pulse-pounding first-person gameplay of the recent era of horror games, Capcom has crafted a veritable modern classic. Resident Evil 7 embraces virtual reality as a medium and proves that you don’t have to cut corners or make sacrifices to create a compelling VR experience.


Damn, I never before felt this anxious (with a slight sense of dread) to get my hands on a game. One more day.



This might end up being the only game this year that I get day 1.



Really good score !

That sounds awesome. Ive always wanted that kind of  horror experience and RE7 looks to deliver in VR. Unfortunately, I don't have the funds for a PSVR and I don't wanna go thru the game without if it really is the optimal experience. Damn you money!!

Great score! Looking forward to getting this game, looks like it is gonna be legit scary and the atmosphere I felt from the demo definitely gives me that feel.



 

This game makes me want to get a PS VR.

I'm surprised. I took a crack at the metacritic score and got lucky. I randomly chose 86.
Anyways, I'm happy that this is a good return to form for the series, after the abomination that was the sixth game.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

86 Is a pretty decent number.
