I think this will be a welcome break from the other Resident Evils, as they were getting a bit repetitive. I'm sure Resident Evil 5 or 6 will have closure (or something) with sherry. The series seems to like to jump around in time lines.

I cant believe they still havent fixed the controls. It's obviously looking stunning graphics wise, but those controls have always been a BIG turn off for me. A little pissed right now.

Sounds like they raped the story, but I'm still buying..

The preview says that even with the controls being the same, it feels like a whole new game with the new cameras... so maybe you'll like them...

I never had a problem with the controls in the first place though, as I've said a million times in the past...

And BlueFire pointed out a fun fact on AIM... what happened to Leon being infected? And the dark castle-ish place? And the weird darkness stuff... It looks almost like they've pulled an RE 3.5...

Damn this game looks so good!! :eek:
I can't believe they still have the controlls like 'aim up, aim straight ahead, aim down'.

Hopefully it will be analog aiming this time... probably.

I'm not gonna read into the story yet, gotta play the other RE games first and THEN I'll play RE4.

They say the controls are similar to previous RE's but a lot less clunky, and the new cameras are great.

This is reminded me of Manhunt a lot, which isn't a good thing...

We shall see.

You guys are under the mindset that theyve showed us the entire game in those few crappy magazine scans? Why couldnt leon still be infected, and there still be dark castle is locations?

I read on MagicBox that they scrapped everything they did about this game before we've seen this new footage :P

Well that could be a possibility, however it just seems waaaay too different from before... No black virus things in any of the screens, no settings anything near the dark castle-ish thing...

And if you've ever heard of "RE 1.5", then you'd know it wouldn't be the first time Capcom scrapped everything and started over...

Resident Evil 1.5 information

It was supposidly 70-80% complete and they scrapped it all... It could explain why it's taking them so long to release RE4...

Edit: Oh and here'd be the best proof... Quote from the magic box BLueFire mentioned...

"the producer mentioned that all previous scenes shown were scraped, the story and details were totally reworked"

wonder why they scrapped it, the graphics rule!
