Just like RE4. I mean come on the only difference is in the setting, characters, and maybe story, but other than that the camera, gameplay, level structure, and enemies look no different. So why is it so hyped?

Capcom has a great outlook on their new games, if it ain't broke don't change it. I agree with them. Don't screw up the RE4 formula and you have a guaranteed awesome game.

Because number 4 was awesome! Number 5 doesn't have to do much different to win me over, although it certainly would help.

RE5 is a sequel, so what were you expecting? RE was really changed with RE4.

I didn't vote since my view aint there, I would have voted "No, I've never been interested in the series" :)

If it were on Wii it would have failed anyways on that console. So either way it would be a loose/loose situation for Wii owners.

I'll probably buy it, but don't get your hopes up for GOTY. It's not going to happen.

If they had stuck to that earlier RE4 wouldn't have even been made. I don't think RE5 looks like much of an improvement. While RE4 took some steps in the right direction it definately took some backwards as well, and this game looks to continue that formula. Take 1 step forward, 2 steps back.

Ever since they screwed up the series permanently with Resident Evil 4 my hopes are not too high.

I'll buy it thought, the good Resident Evil games still far outweigh the bad. Yes, this includes Resident Evil: Gaiden, Resident Evil: Survivor, Resident Evil: Dead Aim, etc... etc...

I'm looking forward to it. People seem to forget that there was 5 or 6 RE games before RE4 that looked the same.

you know, they have a good formula going with RE5.

im glad they kept the same kind of gameplay method from RE4.

but for godsakes, atleast make the game have better animations or atleast new ones.

the game looks too much like RE4. which isnt a bad thing.

but it feels like capcom is playing WAYYYY to safe this time.

the game needs a lil bit more spice in it.

but hey, ive only played the demo.

Personally I think it would be hilarious if it went back to the style of the older games.

It would be great too, just imagine what the graphics would look like.

The only thing that keeps me interested is the story, as corny as it is. The GeOW gameplay is just meh to me. The survival horror was so much better. Even if the Halo kids think it's an improvement.

Online Co-op, better graphics and sound, new story, characters and setting, gameplay tweaks (ie moving while shooting, no more 'tetris inventory', and Chris Redfield are more than enough to tide me over. It's going to be very similar to RE4 but that is definately not a bad thing. I mean, it's a seque to one of the most critically acclaimed games everl. What did you excpect?

I'm not that exited for this game anymore. I was but it seems to be more like survival-action than horror anymore.

RE4 was a whole new take on the RE formula and Viewtiful Joe was a whole new take on the Beat-em-up genre, both immensely successful. On the other hand, DMC4 was a conservative take on the DMC formula, and it failed miserably, as did Onimusha 3 and Maximo 2. Point being, RE5 could go either way. Capcom works in mysterious ways.

That said, I'm not excited about RE5 because it's nearly identical to RE4. Co-op? I don't play co-op, so I don't care.

DMC4 got a 8.0, how is that failing miserably

Resident Evil 4 was already a big change from the rest of the series. I think at least the next one should be similar before they do that again...

The GS rating doesn't save the game from being an unplayable piece of filth. Surely you've found yourself in strong disagreement with something GameSpot has posted?

Of course, bro. I even went as far as to reserve the collector's edition...don't know what the hell's in it, but I'm a diehard RE fan. I mean, come on...Chris Redfield returning? You can't tell me you're not pumped about that.
