$50 for 3 hours of gameplay? No thanks.

Yeah, that's pretty weak. Maybe for $20.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1, if you knew what you were doing, was 20 minutes long (well, for each skater - still, 3 hours and 40 minutes long total).

Sure,it's actually a little longer if you count load times, but not by that much.

It's not just the time, though - it's the replayability.

Don't pass judgement just yet.

I am cautiously interested in this - I'm hoping the Resident Evil games have caught up with modern times, but will wait and see. Meaning, that awful control scheme gotten rid of!!!

I think this is the RE with online play. I think that makes it worth it, but we'll see when it comes out

30 mins, 5 scenarios, 8 people to play = 20 hours of gameplay


each person's perspective is unique too so it's not like you wouldn't want to play them and you need to play them all to understand the story line.


Plus multiplayer over internet sounds nice.

Online gaming is cool but it doesn't guarantee a hit. Proper implementation is really the key. Did any CAGers get in on the Beta?

I didnt but one of my friends over at another board said he got to test the beta. Overall, it felt like a classic RE game but there were some glitches like a zombie would be at the other side of the room from your character but when you move and the camera switches, the zombie somehow teleports right up to your face. Hopefully, Capcom will be able to fix it before release.

I'm a huge RE fan and I'm definately picking up this one, no matter how short it is.

Did he mention if the controls had changed?

There are 2 options you can choose from. The classic RE controls and a new analog controls (I dont know if these were in the RE Remake or RE0 games).

Phew! Thank god, I just don't think I could possibly play a Resident Evil game where my character couldn't spin around unrealistically without moving their feet!

I heard there were also extra characters in the game that you could unlock. Do you these characters also have a unique perspective to the story or do they just replace one of the original's shoes? Also is the online gaming having a different story to the offline version?

A cable guy came over here to fix our broadband and he said his friend or something is a beta tester. He said that it sucked because it loads very often and/or it takes a while to load. Keep in mind, this is just hear say, though.
