[T0INE]

No consistency with those RE 6 review scores at all.

 

[Bad Religion]

One site says 3/10, one 9.5/10?

 

[D Double]

The 3/10 review is from Jim Sterling so it's safe to ignore.

Not really. Just because it's RE doesn't mean it's an automatic 10. A lot of RE fans hate the direction RE has taken since 4. It's just too over the top now. Everything that made RE great has been absent in 5 & 6.

I'm glad there are reviewers who refuse to fall in to the hype.

 

[bamez]

yeah i was debating on RE6, but i'll pass and just get the HD RE4.

oh! i got my ps3 off ebay, and its full of pics of dude wit his girl 

.  but hurt tho, hes got tons of thai and thai rap music on the thing too.  was hoping his netflix was still logged in, but its not.  

He does have a CC registered for his PSN, so the store is wide open for me.

I've only played the first one on PS1. It's not my kind of game.
I was just pointing out who reviewed the game and gave it 3/10. It's the same guy who gave Assasin's creed 2 4.5/10 while it was getting 9's everywhere else. It's his opinion at the end of the day

 

[bamez]

i still remember my first experience with RE1, i was in the Philippines and it wasnt even resident evil there, **** was bio hazard.  and that biohazard intro had me shooook 

good times, Rebecca

I read some of the comments on that particular review and it looks like most of the public on that site trust him as a reviewer. It's almost weird how there is no real shot taken at him. You usually see that on any other site.

I havent played an RE since 2, so I'll probably pass again.

 

[swendro]

4.5/10 sounds like a fair rating for AC. Those games are a total bore.

[h1]Capcom would ‘consider’ a Resident Evil 2 remake with fan support[/h1][/quote]

Yes please! RE2 was my favorite out of the series.

 

[Bad Religion]

This ACIII + Libertion on Vita is tempting. But I dont think I need the gold edition.

Boost and whoever else picking up 2K, let me know how it is.

my sentiments exactly

we get NFL blitz but EU gets bulletstorm and RE 5 GOLD EDITION. Sony US is slipping

You never played 4?!!

 

[Bad Religion]

No, should I?

 

[robpzee612]

No, should I?

RE 4 is great game.

 

[infamouserror]

No, should I?

RE4 is one of the greatest games of all time, srs. Its' influence can be seen in pretty much every 3rd person game this generation. That makes it even sadder that RE6 was the best they could come up with.

Wouldn't even crack the top 50 of the greatest games of all time. It's a very good game though.

As a fan of alternate history fiction, this may swing me into picking up the Gold Edition of ACIII...

Assassin’s Creed III DLC: George Washington is King
Welcome to an alternate reality.
by Andrew Goldfarb OCTOBER 3, 2012

Ubisoft has announced new downloadable content for Assassin’s Creed III. Set in an alternate version of history, The Tyranny of King Washington is a single-player campaign that will be told through multiple downloadable content packs and features George Washington becoming king of America.

“As the revolution comes to a close, a new and most unexpected enemy emerges,” Ubisoft explains. “Driven by the desire to secure the fate of the colonies, the greatest hero of the revolution, George Washington, succumbs to the temptation of infinite power. The new King is born and his reign leaves no one untouched. To return freedom to the land our new hero must dethrone a tyrant he once called friend.”

The story will be told through three episodic content packs, all of which will be available by purchasing the Assassin’s Creed III Season Pass, which will be available on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC for $29.99 (2400 Microsoft Points). The Pass will offer access to five content packs in all, including single-player content as well as maps and characters for multiplayer. According to Ubisoft, purchasing the Season Pass will account for a 25% savings versus buying packs individually, and Season Pass owners will have access to content one week ahead of other players.

“History is our playground – and AC teams have always loved playing with historical facts and their consequences as a way to better understand a time period,” said Ubisoft executive producer Sebastien Puel said of the Washington content. “While Assassin’s Creed III concentrates on history as it happens, we wanted to take some liberties with this DLC and tell you how things ‘could have happened.’”


Assassin’s Creed III is less than 30 days away, hitting Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on October 30th, followed by a Wii U version on November 18th and a PC version on November 23rd. The downloadable content will “also be available for the Wii U,” Ubisoft said, but no specific timeframe was revealed.

Looks like UbiSoft put that three years into good use.

Purchased GTA III last night and my god we've come a long way since then. The game was hell on my eyes for a number of reasons. It is not a must have. It was only $10 so I'm not that upset.

EDIT: IGN comments never fail:

Whyte_Devyl • 5 minutes ago

The next DLC will be Abraham Lincoln: Slavemaster.

Wouldn't even crack the top 50 of the greatest games of all time.

Yeah it would.

IGN ranks it 32
Games Radar ranks it 18
Game Informer inexplicably omitted it from their top 100.


It's the 3rd highest rated PS2 game on Metacritic. 2nd highest gamecube game.

It's a classic, no doubt about it.

 

[Bad Religion]

Did they just re-release it or am I thinking of a different RE?

 

[swendro]

RE 4 HD released September 2011.
