Well,

I like how you can't even see your gun. Come on Capcom...really? No onscreen gun? Just a reticule? Crap. Why would they think a gun was uneccessary?

I also like how the "A" action buttons could have EASILY been done using Wii-mote specific actions like swinging or stabbing.

Lastly, I love how the graphics are no where near RE4......a last gen game

Wow, judging the graphics on like, 5 screenshots? (which I didn't even think were bad) It has potential to be a good game.

Let's talk about how none of us have even played it and are judging it purely on videos.

I think that's a beter discussion, don't you? :wink:

I'm so glad that I'm not a RE fan. While RE fanboys will whining of RE:UC or the port of RE4, I'll play on Treasure Island Z.

I'll admit, I don't know everything about this game. However, I can explain to you how your points are wrong.

1) If, as I believe it is, an "on-rails" shooter, THAT'S HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE. Have you ever been to the arcades with these types of games? You held the gun and shot on screen. Until we get that light gun attachment, the Wiimote is the gun. It supposed to look like that. If it had shown a gun it wouldn't be a true "on-rails" shooter.

2) While it would be nice, think about it. Performing motion-sensitive controls in a split second would be very hard and frustrating, considering you get very little time to react. Pressing 'A' is a lot more doable then remembering "Oh yeah, I have to swing while making sure the sensor picks up the action!" The game would be very frustrating if you had to do a motion-sensitive control for every split-second action. Yes, it would help add realism, but I think this is much better.

3) The art style is very good. Have you seen the IGN gameplay video yet? It looks great. Plus, there's a post somewhere on this board showing some pictures that show its art style. It looks fine. By the way, did you forget this wasn't the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3? You'll never get those type of graphics on the Wii, so the best you can get is "last gen" graphics, as you so "wisely" put it.

Like I said, I don't know everything about this game, I just know your points are extremely uneducated and wrongly placed.

Well, a lightgun game on the Wii was inevitable. Just be thankful that we got one with a decent plot.

My 2 cents on RE:UC, True or false style.

Capcom's on-rail shooters haven't been stellar:True, but this games seems to be getting more resources than those games.

On-rail shooters can't be good: FALSE!. If you don't like the genre is another thing.

Re:UC isn't a real RE game: True(?), but neither is Re4 (imo at least)

The Resident Evil Union has nonstop coverage of Capcom Gamers Day 2007 and the latest pictures for RE:UC. But either IGN or 1UP stated that it was only 30% done, come on RE4 was changed so many times, so anything can and will happen knowning CAPCOM.

Yeah... the whole point of the Wii is to make controls more intuitive, and hitting one button sounds a lot more intuitive than performing random gestures while trying to aim.

.... RE 4's graphics were NOT that much superior to it's previous games on the gamecube idiot... infact all the RE games on the game cube looked obsolutely out standing. And hell, I remember playing "rail" shooters back in the arcade with friends in the day. Might be a good game to chill with a few buds and play. If it's cheap...:-P

That would be because this is a light gun-esque game, not a first person shooter. Ever play House of the Dead? Plus having a gun onscreen would limit your view point and aiming capability as well.

I also like how the "A" action buttons could have EASILY been done using Wii-mote specific actions like swinging or stabbing.

Yes, and it can (and is!) EASILY done with a button press.

Lastly, I love how the graphics are no where near RE4......a last gen game

The game looks just as good as REmake on GC, except with full models as opposed to pre-rendered backgrounds. Considering most Wii games don't look anywhere near as good as Resident Evil 4 anyways, I'd say this game looks just fine.

 I'm skeptical about this game, but I definetly wouldn't go as far to write it off completly and say it's "TERRIBLE" at this point. This game has a lot more going for it than say, Dead Aim did. Obviously the Wii remote works great for this type of game; the presentation seems to have a good deal of effort put into it; it's aimed to be a 15-20 hour long quest; it's not just a random spin-off, the story actually ties into the main plot line; and finally an actual reputable developer is making the game..Capcom!

Just one thing. Resident Evil 4's graphics weren't that good, and it looked like Leon was getting in touch with his Feminine side...

Explain yourself! how is a on-rails game a gimmick that makes no dam sense at all. Hey just because you hate on-rail games doesint mean its going to suck. Who the hell do you think you are the master of all video games.

for all you morons and fanboys damning UC.

 grow up. seriously. quit being a fanboy and just accept the fact that light gun games are actually fun.
To me, the graphics look amazing. period. RE4 shouldnt be the benchmark to which all wii games should be judged either.

RE4 if anything is just a gameplay ****at this point. "ZOMG ITS NOT LIKE RE4 WTF!" you guys just cant be appreciative of a new ****of game that may be halfway decent, and you're too arrogant to accept it.


Suck it up. btw, why cant I say Ty-pe

but regardless ill definitley be picking up RE4- wii edition, renting UC, and renting Treasure Island? if thats what its called.

Lmao @ the one who said RE4 didnt have good graphics. Are you freakin kidding me? RE4 was ahead of its time and I was amazed how this little purple box could pull off graphics like that. Its even pretty good compared to this gen graphics.

And also, adding a gun onscreen would be even worse. It would look like an FPS and remind me too much of survivor.

From the looks of the gameplay its looks ok.... but I can't say this will be a great thing.

Personally I'm not happy about it for the fact that you can't move the character on you're own (walking, running, etc.). Also from what I seen so far is just mostely plain shooting (like how rails are right?) which to me is not as good as when u get to go on you're own and solve different puzzles like in the previous installments.

RE4 (to me) gave the series a BIG step foward and introduced a new (and better in my opinion) way to play. Idk why Capcom decided to switch up the new RE4 gameplay s-t-y-l-e (its not that old people).

Well since this is not really a game showing anything new and is just bringin back 0,1,2,3; maybe thats why they decided to make this game one rails... Dissapointing for me.

Who knows what will Capcom do since this game is very early in development, we'll find out later in the future.

*cough*

Killer 7, same bloody elements...

 Ok now, it will be fine, why? because I said it will be. My reasons? because it gives fans of the series a chance to replay through the series we know and love through a very fun fashion...

Now quit being all, "OH NOES LIFE IS ENDING CAUSE ITS A RAIL SHOOTER!" and accept the change for what it is.

Lets NOT discuss why RE:UC will be terrible because I do not have future telling abilities.
