Yes!!! Im going to the mall today!!! Whoo!

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Hehe, DeathsHand and his need to act cool even in games... :)

But I agree, it DOES look cooler that way.

Like in World of Warcraft, it's just fun to laugh at people, cry, dance etc. etc... Even though it has no gameplay use.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

The Warcraft dances rock! Woooo!... Except for the Night Elf Female dance, it's just lame and skanky...

Ladies and gentlemen, I believe we have a Capcom spy, sent here to over-hype the length of the game...

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

What?? You don't like the Female Night Elf dance? :wtf:
Hehe :p

The Tauren one is super funny, but gets boring pretty fast...

Oh wait, RE4. :sneaky: Nice graphics.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Hah!

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

The game is pure greatness.

GOTY 2005 if it was not for Zelda.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Oh come on, I'm the resident Zelda fanboy and even I'm not going to call Zelda GOTY before its released (or anyone besides the development team plays it for that matter).

Besides, there is the possibility that it won't be released outside of Japan until '06.


*shrugs and walks away*

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Got the game yesterday... played for 3 hours... and got a nightmare about the lake monster boss, hard as hell... and hell is an understatement (sp?) and those graphics :drool: pure goodness

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

I beated it today... *nods*... 15 or so hours I believe... 73% or so accuracy... Enemies killed... A lot...

I died like 40 something times, which has gotta be the most I've ever died in an RE game... But that's because there were some parts that were just too much trial and error...

And my vote for most annoying cutscene ever (without ruining anything): Knife fight!

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

I think Dyne asked where I was. Sorry, I missed the post.

Don't read between the lines unless you think you're further than me (5h 45m into the game).

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

I gotsd a question for you guys...

What weapons are you using? Do you buy the newer model guns (riot gun in place of shotgun, etc) or just stick with the ones you have and upgrade?

I heard people on the IGN forums talking about how much awesomer the newer models are, however up until the very end the only guns I had were:

Punisher Handgun
Plain ol' Shotgun
Plain ol' Rifle

None of which I completely maxed out...

Then right near the end of the game I bought the broken butterfly to make EZ Cheez of the various bosses...

Oh yeah and now that I think back on it, the Resident Evil 4 storyline was way totally dissapointing... IMO the thing the story in this game did best was set up for a sequel...

The story just kinda felt like "Here's some weird random crap, but we'll tease you tidbits of info that make it seem like RE5 will actually tie in to the RE storyline somehow... WELP GAME'S OVER HOPE YA HAD FUN!"

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

you don't have the mine thrower, blacktail (handgun) and semi auto riffle? There's a lot more too.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Yeah I know there was a lot more... But I was pressed for space (I actually completely forgot there was a second case upgrade available, so I was running on the first upgrade you can get up until the third became available near the end) and spent more of my money on upgrading my older guns rather than buying new ones and having to spend money upgrading them...

I also didn't know you could combine certain gems with other bits of treasure to up the value of the whole package...

But hey, it worked... I had plenty of handgun bullets up until the time I didn't need my punisher anymore, my shotgun was more than enough to take out mobs of enemies, my rifle of course was awesome (sniping always is) for early boss fights and a bit more, and then the magnum at the end kicked ass...

As I side note, I also got all the bottlecaps... which really wasn't that hard to do... And I annoyed my friend with them...

"Leon, now!... Leon Leon now! L L L L Leon Leon now Leon now!"

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Hmm, I've just been upgrading my guns too. However, I think I could sell my upgraded shotgun and buy the Riot Rifle with pockets of change to spare. I think I will.

I got to the ......... (spoilers!)

Castle.

It's really really frustrating for some reason. But maybe it's just because I had Kahlua earlier.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Yeah, I'm not sure how far I am. What's the second disc for? Is there a lot more of the game on it? Because I'm still on the first.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

I can't remember exactly where it switched, but MOST of the game is on the first disc...

Although it's not as bad as the RE remake where 90% of the game was on disc 1, and only the last laboratory area was on the second...

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

I just got the game yesterday, and just beat the first part of chapter 1 I think. It's pretty freaking hard, but the controls are much nicer.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

But aside from the aiming, the controls are exactly the same... :p

It's amazing what a simple camera angle change can do...

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

They feel different though. I don't hate moving around, and I'm not getting my ass kicked by a singular zombie because I can't get away fast enough. I'm getting my ass kicked by a hoarde of intelligent zombie/people things. The AI is great in this game!

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Just beat the game last night at 1:00 in the morning... pretty easy last boss if you know what to do...

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

When you're in a house and they're coming in from all different angles, yes... Compared to zombies they're much smarter...

However, I think it's pretty dern silly that they RUN QUITE FAST until about 5 feet in front of you where they proceed to kinda stare at you as they slowly move towards you like zombies... Sometimes they don't even walk towards you, they sorta walk around you just waiting to be shot...

Although apparently on the hard mode unlocked by beating the game, they just keep on running...

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

heh, just picked up the game today... so far so good. the progressive and 5.1 rock hard.... it's especially cool if you have a transucer like I do... scary (I've never played a resident evil game)

when I first got to the village, I didn't know what all I could do (get in house, block doors barracade windows etc... ) so I just ran around blowing people up... now that I know I can block doors and stuff... should make for a better gaming experience

Is it just me or are all the villagers speaking Spanish? Is this spain i start in?

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

I'm not sure if it's Spain or not, but you're in Europe and they speak Spanish throughout the whole game. So I'd say it's a safe bet it's in Spain.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

*Reads the title "Flops Hard"*

*Giggles heavily*

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Just started chapter... 3 I think ....the one in the house

My head keeps getting chopped off by the chainsaw guy (who doesn't die with one shot gun blast anymore, even though I upgraded everything on the shotty...

The game is too damn cool... the sniper rifle is nice

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Crap, I haven't played this game in so long. I got to the castle and have given up for a while. (After 5 tries.)

What exactly are you supposed to do there, anyways?

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Well it depends on where in the castle you are... There's a bunch of different things to do in different parts...

One thing you're supposed to do is kill things and not die... Avoid being hit by maces if possible... If an enemy picks Ashley up and starts to walk away with her, it's a great idea to pull out your handgun and shoot that sucker in the leg...

The enemy, not Ashley...

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Getting stuck in RE4 is very hard to do.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Just look at your map and follow the little red destination marker.

Anyway, I beat it tonight for the first time. I clocked in at 13 hours and 30 minutes, although that does include leaving it running for a little while. But I went through pretty fast all things considered. I definitely looked for secrets, but I still felt like it was fast.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

that's funny, gamepro said "if there was one thing wrong with the game, it was that it was too long"

I HATE GAMEPRO.. they suck hardcore (they gave mario party 6 a better score than RE:4)


anyways, I just beat El Gigante ... heh that wuss, shot him in the face with a rocket, and he was toast...

but for fun, I reloaded, and played him with the "small" guns, and he definately stomped my ass....

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

People still read Gamepro? Poor poor souls :(

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

He's pretty damn easy if you freed the dog in the beginning of the game (leg caught in bear trap) and you know what to do once he falls down to the ground and that thing pops out of his head...

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

heh, I shot that dog...

later my g/f said i shouldn't have done that.. but I was thinking he was going to bite me LOL

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

You awful, awful man!...

Well do you at least know about the parasite thing that pops out of it's head? When it falls down, run up to it and press A, then pound away at either B or A (it changes, hit the wrong one and he funks you up) and you'll slash it with your knife...

Do it twice and the thing's dead...

Easy as pie... well maybe not pie, but easier than you'd think it'd be to kill something that big...

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Man, what an enjoyable game. I died a few times getting used to the controls, but once I did, they became second nature. Im not very far in at all, but ive been fully impressed with what ive played so far. Presentation is absolutley top-notch. Im using the zoom function on my Panasonic 53 inch widescreen television, and the game looks stellar. I cant wait to play further.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

You either used Action Replay for that Rocket Launcher or you looted the whole damn island..... wait... nvm I'm thinking about the Infinite Rocket launcher (i.e. 1,000,000 gold)

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

helllllppp.... i'm in the cabin (about 6 hours in) and I keep getting my ass handed to me because all I have if the red 9... (and i leave the other dude to fend for himself downstairs... tips on beating this would be greatly appreciated !

here are some translations of the villagers:


When Leon enters the first house and shows the man the picture, he says this:
¿Qué carajo estás haciendo aquí? Lárgate cabrón.
Which means:
What the f*ck are you doing here? Get the hell out of here mother f*cker.

After entering Cabin #3, villagers can be heard saying:
¡Abre la puerta!
Which means:
Open the door!

Vallan por detrás.
Which means:
Go from behind.

And of course, after the bell rings, during the cutscene, the villagers say:
La campana
Which means:
The bell

Es hora de rezar
Which means:
It's time to pray

Tenemos que irnos
Which means:
We have to go

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

Why do you only have the Red9? You absolutely need to have the shotgun at all times, it can get you out of pretty much any predicament. My only advice would be aim for the heads and knock the ladders down... eventually they leave, just try to stay alive for a while.

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

no, i got the fully upgraded shot gun.. but the only ammo i have for it is the 10 rounds on the table....

Re: 4 Flops hard
 

lmao most of that spanish is common sense. and picadillo is cut up meat, not a spice. :P
