RE5 = AWFUL GARBAGE!

On singleplayer of course.

 

2 player COOP = AWESOME GAME

 

 

Sounds like you have not played it on single player. Its actually quite good.

 

Actual i have,its ok its not awful garbage that was sarcasm for the people who play games like RE5 and L4D on SP and review it,if its like that then COD4 gets a 6/10 for medicore gameplay and story.

 



Around the Network

I look at this two ways. One is understanding why Capcom didn't make this game on the Wii. They designed one game that could be made for both the Xbox 360 and PS3. They would've had to spend more time and money to make a version for the Wii. Also, I do think that hardcore games on the Wii can sell, there just isn't as much of a hardcore base on the Wii as either of the two HD systems. So while both console's copy of RE5 will sell at least 2 million if not more, a Wii version may have not done as much despite having a userbase almost that of both HD systems combined.

Now on the other hand, even if it did a million copies in sales, it would make a lot of profit. Also, it would be keeping the franchise familiar with those who might only own a Wii. For example, I only had a Wii until a few months ago. I would've been left out and maybe lost interest in the Resident Evil franchise. I don't see any way that this game wouldn't have been a pretty big success on the Wii. RE4:WE sold well over a million despite just being a port. RE:UC also did over a million even though it was just a on rails game for a full $50 while there were a couple cheaper options such as House of the Dead 2&3 and Ghost Squad. This shows that the RE franchise is very popular on Nintendo consoles. RE and RE0 did very well on GC. Add that to the success of the other games and there really shouldn't be any doubt that RE5 wouldn't be a big hit on the Wii.



I'll come up with something better eventually...

I find it interesting that most of the people I know who have played Resident Evil 5 agree with the review from Zero Punctuation that Resident Evil 5 is a shorter version of Resident Evil 4 where all the "Improvements" to the game made the game worse. If the Wii can't "Handle" Resident Evil 5 maybe it can get a sequel to the superior Resident Evil 4.

After playing resident evil 5, don't feeel bad Wii fans you already have the better game on your system.

Hope Capcom doesn't port this garbage over.

I usually dont say this,nor do i have beef with any of nintendo fans nor have i had beef with you before,but..

 

how can you say RE5 is garbage but RE4 is awesome? you said yourself RE5 = RE4 Upgraded,yet you trash it? IMHO it sounds like you dislike it because its not on the Wii.

 

 

 

 

I already made a thread why I disliked the game, oh course everyone then accused me of not owning the game, finishing it or even playing it.  Which pretty much everyone does if any critisim arises. 

For god sakes how many times do I have to say it, I OWN THE BLOODY GAME ON THE 360, I FINISHED IT IN CO OP.  I don't like a game not because its on a certain system I don't like the game ITSELF.  So I say in my oppion don't worry Wii fans about Resident Evil 5 on the Wii because its not honestly as good as 4.

Can you imagine what RE5 would look like on the Wii?

 

Yes, it would look slightly better than RE4.

 The Gameplay is almost exactly the same as RE 4. The difference is that RE5 has co-op, post Gamecube era graphics and the "girl" in the the game actually kicks ass instead of just geting kidnapped and whining "Help me Leon!".

 

 The difference for haters is clear. "It's not on Wii so we hate it".

I (personally) haven't played it yet because I have a couple of games in my library I want to complete before I buy a new game.

The biggest Sony fan I know in real life makes the same claims about the PS3 version of Resident Evil 5 vs the PS2 version of Resident Evil 4 ... Being that he really dislikes what the Wii represents is his dislike of the game because it isn't on the Wii?



Resident Evil 5 is already an average game at best, and seeing what Capcom did to Dead Rising in the Wii port, I don't want anything to do with RE5 on the Wii.
