The bigger question is:

Will she be more useful to the plot then Chris Roidfield's useless excuse for a female sidekick in RE5?

Strictly eye candy.

There is such a thing as udeful eye-candy.

Yeah it has been know for a while about the South American scenario but no details were known till now.

I hadn't known about it...

Capcom developers have a Barbie fetish now?

Reminds me of 90s-era David Bowie.
And what sort of operator uses a cup-and-saucer grip? No wonder it is hard to shoot accurately in this game...

So, Apparently the new third chapter of the game is Leon and Krauser in South America circa 2002 Adds context to a certain RE4 Knife Fight I guess.

Neat! It's nice to finally know how the latter is supposed to fit into the series, since he just kind of appeared.

Seeing how the new in-game screen does a good job of resembling RE5, 3rd Excuse Makers as a whole should be ashamed at all they've "achieved" on Wii until now.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #283 on:** September 10, 2009, 11:24:33 PM »

I may buy Darkside Chronicles based on that screen alone.

So Capcom teases RE5 in DC but then doesn't actually deliver the game?

great.

Just like Konami putting Solid Snake in SSBB and not delivering a MGS game for the Wii.

what are we doing wrong?

Is RE5 a good example of PS3 visuals? I'm playing it now, and it doesn't seem all that much better than RE4 visually, besides the higher resolution... (which I don't see, since I'm using a crap TV)

Maybe RE4 used good art-direction to achieve some of the things RE5 does with higher polygon counts and more sophisticated materials, but still, it seems a good example of how the end result isn't entirely dictated by the technical details...

First...

The Wii isn't operated by Nanomachines.

Hideo Kojima was friends with Sakurai and wanted Snake in Brawl. Nintendo however should've told him to FOAD in 2006, we wouldn't have cared.

Yet it's still a rail shooter though, so technically they haven't learned much.

That's not a screenshot. At least not gameplay footage.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #288 on:** September 11, 2009, 02:02:56 AM »

the background is a screen. It can be found standalone on another site.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #289 on:** September 11, 2009, 02:48:07 AM »

Yeah, it doesn't appear to be a render in the background. The blur effects are obviously shooped, but the rest looks like the real deal. The lighting is very impressive.

Bowie was never that shiny.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #291 on:** September 11, 2009, 02:38:31 PM »

Leon is simply at the plastic stage of the uncanny valley. See: Team Ninja 360 games, Unreal Engine 3 most of the time.

Touché

Perhaps he is getting ready for a boxing match.

The background is definitely from a cutscene, if anything. For one thing, it's 900x563px, higher than the Wii can produce. REUC (and RE4) also ran in 16-bit color, I doubt REDC will be in 24 or 32-bit. It could be a screen from the PS3 version of RE5.

The majority of Capcom screenshot press materials for the game are released as 2205x1240 bullshots, and that's what I find on their press site. They'll produce screens at whatever unrealistic size they want. Their quality also fools me into thinking Wii can do more than 16-bit color, but it's just an unusually good use of 16-bit color. Big screens can also be found in earlier parts of this thread.

Plagas-infected enemy characters do not walk around, arms held forward, like Chronicles/REmake zombies. I have not played RE5, but I'm certain you don't find classic RE zombies walking around town.

plus those are Hispanics, not Africans.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #297 on:** September 11, 2009, 09:41:55 PM »

Oppressed is Oppressed. & up until 2001 Hispanic was the new African(American).
so I'm just gonna say, same difference.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #298 on:** September 11, 2009, 10:20:06 PM »

Zombie is Zombie. But no, they're Mutants.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #299 on:** September 11, 2009, 10:51:18 PM »

Capcom probably got accused of being racist towards "mutants", so they had to put some zombies in the game.
