CV is just the best. Story, Graphics, Cutscenes, Gameplay, Characters, and Wesker was a total bada$$. RE4 ruined everything imo. thoughts?

There should be a minimum level for posting topics.

On topic, Code Veronica is awesome.

Resident Evil 4 was imo the best. The series peaked at that game, Resident Evil 5 was just downhill.

Well, graphics wise, I think the game is pretty good, but nowhere near the best. I think that all the GC games and the RE5 all beat it, and RE2 is about on par, especially in cut scenes. The game play is far from the best in the series. It's no differant than the first 3 on the playstation.

Characters? Come on! Steve Burnside? Alfred Ashford? A little cameo from Chris. I don't buy Claire as a main protagonist either. She's a solid supporting character. RE4 took the game into a differant direction. It changed Resident Evil, and some think it made it better and some hate it, very much a matter of taste. I don't think the series could have survived basically following the same formula much longer.

RE4 didn't ruin anything...it just reinvented

just because RE4 is one way, doesn't mean future RE games can't be more like CV

take that up with the developers...RE4 was a HUGE success, like it or not

i didn't say it was survival horror...i just said it was a reinvented success

generally when you reinvent things it usually is completely different than past versions

again...this doesn't mean that developers can't make an RE game of old...that's their problem and decision, not RE4's

REmake> CV>RE3>RE2>RE0>RE original>RE4>RE5 (well it least it had a lot of replay value). What ruins RE4 and RE 5 for is they felt and played like TPS titles. Also being able to upgrade and buy weapons in a survival horror game is rather lame IMO.

Code Veronica was a great game but it was not the best in the series. I say its a toss up between Resident Evil 4 or 5 depends on what story you liked. When Code Veronica came out on dreamcast it was one of the best games on that system. Then when Resident Evil 4 came out it took it in a new direction all i want now is to be able to look around instead of having the aiming the way it is.

yea, and i'm confused because the gen that RE4 came out was the same gen that CV came out, and the same system that REmake and RE0 came out

so idk what he means by..."our gen"

I've loved all the RE games. Even outbreak and outbreak 2.

But honestly my absolute favorite was RE4 and I really liked RE5 as well.

I have never play Resident Evil CV (never got the chance to obtain one) yet, so my opinion would be excluding this game for the time being. Anyway my personal favorite is REmake follow closely by Resident Evil 2. I have to admit that I'm one of the few that sort of dislike Resident Evil 4 for taking this franchise in another direction. Reason being is the game is just too easy with the over the shoulder camera angle, and why are you allowed to buy health and weapons in an survival horror game?:|

I started and completed the RE series about a year before RE4 was released. I think REmake is a better overall game than RE4. Am I being contaminated by "nostalgia?" :roll:

Any Resident Evil game is better than RE4 for the simple fact that is: RE4 wasn't a resident evil game.

Personally in my book it goes like this: RE2, RE3, CVX, RE1,>>>RE4, RE5

Regardless of whether RE4 was a proper Resident Evil game or survival horror game or not, it was still a better made game than the majority of the older REs.

I was never a big fan of the "tank" controls. I also loved RE4 so kinda on the other end of the spectrum. With 4 they could have stayed more true to the formula and just made the controls like 4 but it might not have worked as well.

Archaic controls, pre-rendered backgrounds, limited saves, poor balancing, poor level-design and bizarre puzzles are the height of game design now?

The first one is the only game in the series to actually scare me, to the point i was afraid to hold the controller and walk the character around the next corner. Maybe it was because i was still a teen, or maybe it was because i was home alone during a thunderstorm at night. But no game has ever scared me like that again.

The saves were limited because it's survival horror, only a few ink ribbons. The level design was not poor at all, the mansion was brilliant, and so was the police station. And the puzzles are still mind-boggling today. + The tank controls are waaaaay better than the over-the-shoulder, in that there are more scares from behind, in front, or through a window

Things like limited saves and purposefully bad controls are really lazy, artificial ways of trying to scare people, hence why an RE game has never succeeded in doing so for me. These things in addition to poor stories and goofy enemy designs (giant spiders and lizard men, really?) make the series' attempts at 'horror' more of a farce than anything else. It's the video-game equivalent of a b-movie.

what!? first of all the controls aren't bad, second of all, the story is what kept Resident Evil alive. RE4 ruined the story. All it's about, is Leon saving the presidents daughter from aliens. There aren't even zombies in RE4

Do I think Resident Evil Code Veronica is the best RE game? Damn right I do.

I personally don't agree with Resident Evil 4 ruining anything though.

RE4 did'nt ruin anything, it still had some of the Resident Evil bits in there. RE5 on the other hand ruined the series with rmaking it ALL action. RE2 is still my favorite though, and a remake of that would be a dream come true.

I'm not sure if you understand what a genre is... It is what the game is as a whole, not just certain integrated mechanics....

You cant argue about whats "better" , as BEST is a matter of opinion. BUT my vote is RE4/5 absoulutely stunk to the high heavens. RE games are about zombies, sounds, good story telling, puzzles, using amo wisely, the mood, scary manssions,building and not knowing whats around each corner. Just like any good horror movie.
