Aaaaand now i never wanna have a Bavarian Sausage......WHATEVER that is. It might just be the best sausage in the whole world! but I'll Never Know, cause you had to ruin it for me.Grey Carter said:
Seriously Carter. Cut that out.
And keep up the outstanding work. That too.
I dunno. I consider a broken game disc, without any copies in any nearby stores to be a pretty good excuse.Ashcrexl said:
First off; ew!
Second; Really? That's the explaination you're going for? Was saying "he has poor taste" just too simple and clean? ...Actually, saying that makes me understand the choice now.
Well, I guess you can walk away now, and you won't hear me say "please oh baby, don't go" ... damn it!

They didn't reduce the amount of shit, they just changed the type of shit. If older ones were horseshit sandwiches, 4 was a bullshit sandwich and people just didn't like the new shit. On the other hand, 5 wasn't a sandwich anymore - it was pure bullshit.
Well, I can only say that RE4 was a delicious sandwich with little shit on it, but RE5 was a turd without the sandwich.
In fact... it was a Jill Sandwich.

I know this sounds like I'm being disgusting just because, but I'm curious... on how to actually make a shit and turkey sandwich. I mean do you prepare the sandwich and then squat over it and lay on the extra ingredient? Or do you drop the bomb previously and let it dry to become more crispy? And what if the chef is sick? It wouldn't have the same consistency. (or whatever) Still I liked the daily specials joke 
Blue Hedgehog: Daily shit.
Code V: Little Shit.
Dead Aim: Lots of shit.
Also I don't think I've ever typed the other word for feces so much and so close together

RE4 and RE5 are completely different gameplay-wise(and also story-wise, when it coms to RE4) from the "classic" RE games, so I don't see how they could really be compared, since it's more of a matter of taste than anything.
I like RE4, and I like the classic RE-games (some more than others), but I like them for completely different reasons.

I think you got it a little wrong on the last bit. The 'horror' may be more or less the same between the old and new Resident Evil games, both rely more on the 'surprise' jump out of the closet scares. What differentiates the two however is the suspense, not the movie or book type created by atsmosphere or mood, again the two sides are more or less the same here, but in an area unique to video games: the survival game. In the old, ammo was scarce and the ability to save games was not only limited but few and far between. Death was heavily punished and conservation a must, this creates a sort of suspense through the game not because that next zombie might scare you but rather it could screw you over and set you back. In Resident Evil 4, ammo was plentiful and you could easily restart any room without punishment. If you screw up you get unlimited quick do overs, and personally there were parts of the game where I needed at least a dozen of them... that really kills any possibility for suspense.The Real Sandman said:
For a better example of this, see Demon's Soul. There's been a real hole on the market for this sort of suspensfull gameplay as all the big titles are being made more streamlined and forgiving, and that's probably why Demon's Soul sold so well.
