Im with Odifiend on this one. That was the best cut scene ever.

TMW · « **Reply #1251 on:** March 13, 2005, 06:47:35 PM »

I know someone who would beg to differ, and say that Aeris getting stabbied is the best one ever. =P

But I would concur with Odifiend and Nosferat...it was rather awesome in it's badassitude.

I just finished the game! it was absolutely amazing! the cutscenes in this game are like a million times better than any other because you just dont know when you have to push the buttons! I couldnt put down the controller at anytime ^_^

The final boss was dull and dissapointing, but I really didnt mind that fact, the whole scape scene at the end was awesome! the only thing I missed, and specially my little bro, was that you cannot play the Ada mission with her original sexy outfit

to get all the weapons you had when finishing the game you need to load the last save of the game, the game after you finished has all the new things unlocked but in order to have all your weapons from the start you must load the game from the save file, not start a new one.

In conclusion, it sucks that the GC had such a lackluster third party support, because as this games showed, the GC is very capable of putting amazing games, my only explanation is that devs are idiots and never gave the little good GC any chance. I can only imagine games like Devil May Cry with the kind of graphics that they deserve as shown in RE4! or a great Castlevania title! all those games wouldve been totally mind blowing in the GC.

TYRANT was dull. Saddler's not that dull. Compared to a single Ganado standing on a rooftop, Tyrant is still dull. And naked.

Are you trying to get lots and lots of cash in your Round 2 game now? Only bought the Chicago Typewriter last nite, just after Ashley's Flashlight Adventures part of the game. I traded in my Striker, tho.

PaLaDiN · « **Reply #1256 on:** March 19, 2005, 08:37:19 AM »

I disagree. Saddler wasn't dull, he was very fun to fight. I have the feeling they made him sort of easy so you could go all out beating the crap out of him. After all that happened, I seized the opportunity.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #1257 on:** March 19, 2005, 08:42:27 AM »

I happen to like short and sweet fights much more than long, boring ones...Thus, I thought RE4's final boss was the best in the series...

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #1258 on:** March 19, 2005, 09:50:08 AM »

The Saddler fight was even juicier given the arsenal you could amass by the end of the game. Sure, that can make things seem easy, but the game always had an emphasis on tactical variety. Having a nice arsenal really means having more toys to play with, and Saddler's your playmate. It was also great to see the KNIFE was still useful at the end of the game, despite all the BIG GUNS you have. Definitely not dull.

I refused to use Ada's Rosy Red Rocket Launcher. Leon would bite Saddler to death, raw-hardcore-like, before using such a thing.

mantidor · « **Reply #1259 on:** March 19, 2005, 02:51:15 PM »

I still think it was dull, my and brother were like "its shoot in the eyes, climb, repeat and repeat... and repeat" after having such a terrific fight with the scorpion-zombie thing (the one that grabbed you like a rag doll and then climbed up from the depths you had already thrown him into and fights with you going underground and all) I was dissapointed with that fight with saddler, the moment Ada threw the rocket launcher I didnt hesitate to end the battle, it was either do that or do the shoot eyes - climb sequence a dozen times, very few strategy needed, it didnt matter to have saved all the big guns for this fight, you just needed a shotgun and enough ammo to end it, the scape in the jet-ski was totally awesome though

I dont remember who was tyrant, it wasnt the scorpion zombie thing, was it? because thats honestly the best boss fight of the game I can recall now

odifiend · « **Reply #1260 on:** March 19, 2005, 05:15:06 PM »

I think the 'Big Cheese' was the hardest boss and (therefore best?) boss in the game. Krauser was my favorite boss fight by far though. The scorpion thing I just pretty much held my ground and pumped him full of lead. My roommate had a tough time with him, and then he saw how i put him down and became less impressed with that boss.

TMW · « **Reply #1261 on:** March 19, 2005, 06:29:11 PM »

The most disappointing boss fight for me was when Salazar turned into the uber monster. It was great the first two times (you know, when he kept killing me), but I found out that if you stand on the higher level to the far, far right, he can't instakill you. All you gotta do is stand there and duck the tentacles while filling Salazar full of lead.

Bloodworth · « **Reply #1262 on:** March 20, 2005, 09:30:40 AM »

Actually, you could just shoot the tentacles a few times to move them out of the way for a while. However, from my conversations, it doesn't look like many people found those spots on the sides. So the trick is learning that's what you need to do.

PaLaDiN · « **Reply #1263 on:** March 20, 2005, 09:54:35 AM »

I actually stood in the center pumping him full of lead, and then when the head opened I RAN LIKE A BAT OUT OF HELL to the side... the screen actually blurs with the swoosh of the attempted instakill right behind me, so amazing.

I don't know about you, but BOSSES for the most part are "do something, do something, shoot, repeat." With Saddler, you could've used mine darts on the torso, run around and use the barrels, or use the two cranes to shake him up. And the eyes in his legs contributed to his overall damage, so you didn't have to damage the main eye every single time to make progress. With the underground scorpion guy you mentioned, I shot him every couple seconds with well-placed magnum shots -- and he NEVER got the chance to fight back -- wow thanks for that exciting I came back from the depths i'm not dead yet haha comeback, but you didn't last more than 10 seconds and you barely moved one step forward, sorry. Saddler never dropped to his knees and went "OW magnum, I give up" like that.

I always like the boss battle with Salazar's right-hand in the sewers. That thing kicked ass and I liked how it had the ability to dodge rockets if you fired it when the creature was not frozen.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #1266 on:** June 10, 2010, 10:43:33 PM »

I almost believed there was something important to share.

You think you were surprised, I clicked on the new button and it teleported me back to 2003 and page 1 of 51.

Well, since this is here...

I've never played a Resident Evil game, or even a survival horror game. Would this be a good one to start with, or should I play the original first, or some other game?

That depends. If you have any interest in the Resident Evil mythos (such as it is) and can tolerate some abysmally outdated gameplay mechanics, start with the Resident Evil remake on GameCube/Wii. If you just want a fun 3rd person shooting experience with a little bit of tension and a lot of dead bodies, start with Resident Evil 4. If you have any intention on playing Resident Evil 5, play both.

Mop it up · « **Reply #1270 on:** June 11, 2010, 12:37:05 AM »

The first one is a no. I bought Resident Evil for GameCube around the time it was released, but I never mustered up the interest to play it, and ended up selling it many years later.
The third one is also no. I actually forgot that I have played Resident Evil 5, once, in co-op with my brother. It didn't impress me.
So I guess it is the second one. The game is pretty cheap now, too.

vudu · « **Reply #1271 on:** June 11, 2010, 02:06:31 PM »

Just buy RE4 Wii Edition (or the original RE4 if you really want to play withe GCN controller). The others aren't worth playing.

I wouldn't say that. The Resident Evil remake is very enjoyable, as is Resident Evil 2. Resident Evil 3 just wasn't all that fun to me (mostly because it's a game that encourages you to blow away everthing in front of you considering all the backtracking, yet doesn't give you enough ammo to actually do it), and Resident Evil 0 is just...superfluous, with little new or interesting. Resident Evil 4 is excellent, and RE 5 is fun IF you're willing to tolerate some really bad partner AI (or play online) and a really overblown, nonsensical story.

Actually, I just recently picked up RE 5 again with the Gold Edition. I think a year after it released, I can replay it now enjoying it for what it is and not what it isn't (a revolutionary entry in the series like RE 4). Plus, I really want to play Lost in Nightmares, a chapter that should have been in the original game in the first place.

Halbred · « **Reply #1273 on:** June 11, 2010, 03:00:16 PM »

Both of the bonus chapters are fun, but I especially liked Lost in Nightmares. Versus mode is a good time, too, assuming you play with people who understand what mode they're playing.

RE4 is great. I think it's the best RE game, honestly. RE5's story isn't overblown--it connects well to previous plot points in the series and provides a good conclusion to the overarchng mythos. I think RE5 is a more refined version of RE4, but you're right about the partner AI. On the other hand, if you and a friend can hook up and play co-op, either next to each-other or online, RE5 provides a really wonderful co-op experience.

Here goes my Resident Evil 4 Las Plagas Biology Discussion:

I will start with the Novistadors.

The Novistadors were the flying creatures that Leon faced in the underground of the castles. One strain of these creatures could bended light to turn invisible while a secind strain could fly.

When facing off against these creature Leon has the opprotunity to kick one down onto the ground it is easy to onserve that this creature has a ribcage which makes you wonder of it has lungs. If it does have lungs, this would mean that it is part human. Oviously the Los Illuminados must have spliced human and fly DNA into each other to create this being. However, it is hard to determine whether the Novistador is a host to the Plaga, or is comprosided of Plaga DNA in its molecular structure?

On Resident Evil wiki it is stated that the Novistadors were once human.
