I must admit, back when I had a 360, the only two games I found myself playing over and over again were SHADOW COMPLEX and the original TRIALS. Two very awesome exclusives that don't get the shine they deserve. I'm all about exclusives which is why PS3 is my main system, but folks there definitely are hidden gems within the XBLA that should not be missed. This being one of them.
@AQWBlaZer91 it's not so much that they are being lazy with current RPGs, they just don't have the same genius minds on the staff anymore. The company is shambles because all the geniuses have gone to MISTWALKER and the team that made Xenoblade etc. Basically any QUALITY JRPG that comes out nowadays has bits and pieces of the talent from the glory days of squaresoft.
My thing is...is the game FUN? The control scheme has ALWAYS been my biggest gripe with the RE series. The controls were always archaic...and very..."alone in the dark 1"
Do you mean to tell me that the only way to preserve the essence of survival horror is to bring BACK those conrtols? RE6 seems to have perfected their controls, yet GS has the nerve to give this the lowest rating of any RE game? You mean to tell me this is worse than that last crappy spinoff that came out before this??
HAHAHA this Kevin VanOrd guy has lost his mind. If you want survival horror just play as LEON.
the QTE absolutely DOES NOT RUIN THE EXPERIENCE. I've never enjoyed an RE game as much as this one. The controls are no longer archaic and actually make SENSE for once. I guess the "survival horror" aspect is lost in the accessible control scheme...but does that mean the controls need to remain old school in order to maintain the survival horror feel? I think that is BS. This game is awesome and I don't even really like RE that much. These reviews are so unbelievably ridiculous. I thought that "other" site was harsh on it, but to find gamespot gave it a 4.5 is INSANE
so, basically this article is saying playstation needs to appeal to the weak minded dumbed down audience that microsoft has?
I think I've gone thru maybe 6 xbox 360s since it came out due to hardware failure, and only 2 PS3s (not due to hardware failure, just wanted the 320gb slim). Once I got my ps3, I held off on getting a new 360 cuz I woke up and realized Microsoft was whoring me...
The annual fee to play online is SUCH an insane ripoff...I finally got a MW3 xbox360 pack just to see if I was missing something but the online experience is EXACTLY THE SAME AS PS3!!!!
I was even trying to be nitpicky to see if there were issues with lag or connectivety...not at all.
I really don't understand what MICRO is forcing you to pay money for...and it's just mind boggling that strictly-micro heads think they're getting a better experience when it's IDENTICAL to PS3.
You even have to buy XBL Gold to use NETFLIX...when its free on PS3 AND WII
I hate to sound like a fanboy, but damn, xbox heads are dumb. And I'm even more stupid for buying a seventh 360, but I had to know for sure that I wasn't missing anything.
(also, if ur gonna bash, please speak from a place of experience. ie: you own both systems and have spent years playing them...online, and the top-tier exclusives.)
Marketing sucks...people falling for the okie-doke is shameful...
well...the game is simply boring and came out way too close to MVC3 and SSF4...
I was so unbelievably bored by this game, it's insane. There was this huge gap where no fighting games were coming out, then out the blue, we get an oversaturation of them. Fighters need another 10yr gap for fans to start caring again...and who knows what gaming will be like by then...
