this is a very tough choice...you can't exactly compare... one is of the action genre the other is of the rpg one... so it is near impossible to compare... But in terms of which I am looking forward to I'll definitely say Resident Evil...There are basically so many games that are similar to FF but for RE, companies try to copy the formula and all but none come close :)

Final Fantasy 13 easily,they've remained exclusive more then sell out Resident Evil, plus RE is starting to look played out and bland, the enemies arent anything like zombies anymore which in my eyes was always a drawing card for the RE series.

RE needs to learn something from 28 days later. RE5 needs to have zombies like those. That would put the "Horror" back in RE. Though i haven't been a big fan of RE since i played the first one when i was like 8 or 9. Scared the crap out of me(that and beating Doom on the PSX).

Sure, RE5's gonna be great, but my money's on FFXIII.

Now that horror no longer exists in RE games (srsly), it's now turning into a mindless (but fun) shooter.

I never was a fan of the FF series. Not that their not great games, but it's not what I'm into. But I am big into RE so I'm really looking forward to RE5. It looks like it's going to be a really fun game!

I firmly believe Final Fantasy XIII will bring a new revolution to the jRPG formula moreso than Resident Evil 5 would do anything significant to the Survival Horror genre.

Both look great though, but I am confident to say Final Fantasy XIII will be a true redesign and refreshing breeze to the stagnant japanese role-playing gaming market that has poorly been adopted (and is severely lacking) into this generation of console gaming.

Easy, Resident Evil 5, of course...

I'd be getting both, but It's just that I couldn't care less about FFXIII

I'm not saying FFXII sucks, It's great for FF fans, and I happen not to be one

I dont know I got scared when those crazy spider things flew off their head for the first time. But the thing that really scared me is when you hear the chainsaw.

From what I've seen of RE 5 it looks stunning, Some FF13 gameplay would be sweet. Its a hard choice I love both series. But I'll go with FF13.

IF and only IF RE5 was what most of us prayed to be ( a original zombie like game like all previous games) then i would easily vote for RE5...

Since its not and reminds me alot of RE4 , an alien/sci-fi parasite shooter FF13 easily for me... Im not saying RE5 wont be good or i wont buy it ot play it but most of you , especially RE veterans like me , understand me 100%

No, none of the Final Fantasy game (with the exception of X-2) have been direct sequels. Most of them aren't even set in the same universe.

Neither game can be compared because neither game can be judged on any scale...considering neither game is RELEASED. Previews are irrelevent because game details can be changed at any time prior to going to print. Prerelease excitedment does not represent game quality. :D

Both games have been so tight nit. You sorta have to go on what they have done. Not what we have seen. You have one of the best RPG franchises ever, vs the predecessor "is that the right word lol :P" to a "game of the year" game. Hard pick.

After seeing the Resident Evil 5 trailer, DEFINITELY FFXIII. I mean, RE5 now looks exactly like RE4...except with a different setting. And since I love the atmosphere of RE4, I'm kinda expecting RE5 to be a bit underwhelming. Then again, I don't really know anything about FFXII...

Sure, RE5's gonna be great, but my money's on FFXIII.

Now that horror no longer exists in RE games (srsly), it's now turning into a mindless (but fun) shooter.

hazelnutman

Everytime RE is brought up someone has to mention they are not scary anymore. If that huge group of people with weapons isnt intimidating and scary, then I dont know what is. Also, if your idea of horror is bad camera angles or ghosts coming after you with the only way to defend yourself is a camera. I will stay with the reinvented model of RE. If Fatal Frame is scary to you, you need to watch some horror movies. That game is a sleep fest. Take note by the way, there are other scary things in the world of horror other than zombies. Quit being so damn close minded.

Oh and fyi (to anyone) the 28 series doesn't have zombies. They are just rabbid people. They dont even eat anyone. So, please, realise there is not a single zombie in those movies. If you must pick fastzombies, why not use Dawn of the Dead? Then again, I am getting tired of reinvented zombies. They are not nearly as scary as the slow ones.

why are these games even being compared. I don't know of any two games that are on opposite sides of the spectrum....
