Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
HD version Good trailer. Looks like as much of an change as Resident Evil 1 Resident Evil 2. Online co-op was already announced; disappointed that wasn't shown off. Chris looks slightly less like he's smuggling grapefruits, but he now dragon-punches. Explosions looked pretty. Lots of enemies could make things tense. Parasites are pretty ace. lol at the addition of black female sidekick and prominence of white zombies to assuage criticism. I hope they try to explain the latter as infected relief workers or something. So out of place. |
Re: Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
never even noticed there were "white" zombies the first time I saw the trailer, I guess maybe I find it difficult to care about what color a zombie is. White people in Africa do exist, by the way, as hard as that might be to believe.
Pretty sick of seeing every topic on RE5 turn into some bullshit racism debate. Game looks good, an upgrade on the controls from RE4 is hopefully in order. |
Re: Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
This game looks sick.
Return of the dreaded chainsaw foes? |

I didn't see random black fellows chilling in Spain for RE4, but they certainly exist there as well. Chainsaw dude looks fast. I fear him. |
Re: Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
Jesus christ that looks awesome.
I DO like the RE4 formula of things, but I hope this game doesn't copy it exactly. |

http://www.villagevoice.com/blogs/ru...es_in_afri.php I don't find it surprising that there are white people in it. I find it disappointing that they changed the black:white ratio simply to satisfy some ignorant, insecure very small minority of people (and by minority I don't mean black people, I mean the small number of people that are bothered by the games setting). I shot down hordes of Spaniards in RE4. Why weren't they whining then? The fact is that in a Resident Evil game it's always made abundantly clear that the people you're killing are already victims of the Umbrella corporation. If some crazy's running at me with a Scythe I'm going to defend myself regardless of what his color is. Anyway, it looks like they caved and if so I'm disappointed in them. |

Re: Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
I bought RE4 Wii with big expectations (mainly because it got game of the year from a lot of sites and mags) but it somehow bored me, I don't know why. I think I don't like the save point system - the game makes me play large chunks of it in one sitting. I'm not a person who has that much time on his hands. Which is probably why I like shorter games. Or at least, games that can be played in short bursts.
Anyway, I was excited about this when I first heard about it, but after finishing RE4, I'm not so sure.. |
Re: Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
game looks hot, just like the hero. Can't wait
|
Re: Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
RE5 might be the reason why I pick up a next-gen console. That game looks like win. I just hope they ditch the "possessed" villagers crap, or whatever was going on in RE4. Zombies are zombies.

Re: Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
from the looks of things, looks like the same virus from re 4
|
Re: Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
I think they already said in an interview that this isn't the same as RE4, but these are real zombies again.
Also, isn't this about the place where the original T-virus was discovered/mutated or something? |

Re: Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
It's not Las Plagas, or if it is, its a different strain, since this version seems to be able to handle light okay.

Re: Resident Evil 5 WHITE ZOMBIES NO RACISM
The last thing I remember about Resident Evil, Wesker had all sorts of viruses and potential test subjects, and got his hand on Las Plagas, presumably to tinker with it and make some sort of GT-Virus Alexia Ashford Virus Plagas Fajitas...
So I'd say he's most obviously behind this new version of the Las Plagas, seeing as how he's been behind just about everything in the series ever since they discovered that gamers really like bad guys who wear dark sunglasses and black clothes... |
