I'm sure most of you will disagree with me... what the fuck! I'm sure most of you are going to flame me because of my next words, but I think RE4 is one of the most overrated games ever! Let's explore a bit in the game:
- Lion is the brand new President's daughter bodyguard (What the fuck!?)
- The President's daughter has been kidnapped by a spanish sect (How the fuck!?)
- Lion go by himself to a lost spanish town in the middle of... nothing (Ok, he has guts)
- The Spanish villagers don't speak spanish, they speak mexican... (Oh, crap!)
- The Spanish mexian speakers villagers are slow, fearless and dumb (yeah, that's the way we are)
- There is a weird guy following you wherever you go who sells you weapons (it's also common in Spain)
- The money is on "pesetas" of course (What is euro?)
- There is a big bearded guy who can kill you a few times, but he rather injects you (smart guy indeed)
- Ada Wongs is there too... emmm... this chick loves problems
- Did I say that she is dressed in a one piece dress?
- Stupid villagers are stupid, but they can plant bombs (in Spain everybody knows)
- Oh! The stupid villagers can take more than five gunshots (yeah, as you probably guess, spanish guys are tough)
- Well, I only played a few hours so I cannot say much more than that, but you get my point... and it's a shame because I loved Resident Evil 1 and 2.
By the way, I know my english sucks, blablabla...
lol, i couldn't have put it better myself.
FAIL!!
I've got to go to Spain.
I got RE4 the day it came out for Gamecube. It was immediately side lined so that I could play, enjoy and finish Zelda: Minish Cap. As soon as I finished Zelda, I marathoned RE4 so that I could sell it back for maximum value.
RE4 is one of the most boring games I've played. All of the charm of the series was removed and even lamer dialog and vague hints of Leon's disinterest in females was added. RE4 is fail.
I'm also glad you put "by me" in your title, as before that I wasn't sure if it was by someone else or not. I am glad you cleared that up. Do you do this kind of analysis for everything you watch? I bet you hated die hard because it would be impossible for john mccain to walk on broken glass then not die from blood loss or be severely crippled, or able to jump on top of a flying harrier jet. You must lead a very boring life. And so that you can understand this I have translated it into Mexican for you. Thank you google!
Well, I only played a few hours so I cannot say much more than that,
I only played a few hours
guess you hated the sims with their Simeoleans as well then? or WoW? ( I mean who really pays with gold in a store?)
I also fail to see what is bad about scarcely dressed women, are you gay?
also, if villagers would just require 1 gunshot to die, RE4 would be boring as hell, what game has your opponents die with one frigging bullet, have you ever played games??? ( CS with AWP does not count!!! )
basicly anybody that can read can find out how to create a bomb so the villagers could most certainly do that too :-)
no offence man, but I like RE4 and the reasons you put forth won't change my mind :-)
also immagine RE4 without all the stuff you just said, now THAT would SUCK (no way to buy guns, euros make everything a fuckload more expensive then it used to be, no hot women...) damn...
@ Bahamut Zero: Looks like I speak english much better than you speak spanish... and I loved Die Hard
@ Fadakar: Lion, Leon, whatever... you understand me isn't?
@ Trevor McGee: Thanks for the appreciation about my english. Also Resident Evil 1 and 2 were much better.
Also, I love you all, hard-fanboys
either you accept video game logic with a certain humor (and a lot of the time that humor is intentional) or you don't have fun. Those are your options. I choose fun.
Also if you're playing Resident Evil for story, you're a fucking halfwit fanboy. Because that is the ONLY thing you are complaining about.
"Also, I love you all, hard-fanboys"
So you like hard fanboys....eh
RE one crap, 2 was awesome, 3 was meh all the gun survivor ones sucked and Code Veronica X wasn't that great either, and I freaking LOVE RE as a series.
The "stupid villagers can take more than five gunshots" last time I checked they were infected...hrrm indeed. I bet what you mean is that if they were REAL and infected it would only take like, one shot or two shots to down them. I used to think like this until back in '97 when I had the encounter with a zombie. They seriously take a chest full of rounds without stopping, then I remembered the video games and was like, oh yeah heads shots. That zombie fell like a sack of bricks. Good times, good times.
And Wedge won the smarter post of the year award! :)
Do you guys realize how much you flame someone who doesn't like what you like? Some of you should go buy a life
its not that we flame you because you don't like what we like, we flame you because you use bogus reasons to dis something that is generally considered a great game...
nilcam said he hated it too, but his reasoning is far more acceptable to us, why because he's using decent arguments :-)
also I'm at work so I haven't got a life atm :-)
but srsly, no offence meant though :-)
it's a fun game, and i dont think you said otherwise at any point in the cblog written by you. play the game through, so you can hate on how the castle isn't traditional spanish architecture.
Exactly how many games have you played in your life? Obviously not alot if you count the fact that you shoot guys five times before they die as a negative.
anyways...
i know es muy diferente el español latino ke el ezpañol de españa (no ofensa)...
a example of this is the spanish voices for total overdose (ps2)...
mexicans talking like spanish people...
so esto nunca va a terminar...
Gorgoncete; dont tell US to buy a life on a hardcore gaming site. Go learn proper english before you try to rip on us in our language, pendejo. (i'm not gonna bother spelling in an inferior language)
Sure, a lot of stuff in games are silly, but that's why you suspend you disbelief accordingly where needed. Compared to RE1 and RE2, and as much as I enjoyed them RE4 is a milestone in the series and third person games in general. Unfortunately in your rant you fail to see the positives of RE4. Things like there would probably be no Gears of War the way we know it, were it not for RE4 influencing Cliffy B. As a result, many other games have benefited and third person games now rival FPS games an a fairly equal footing.
Fact, Leon did not go alone to the village, he had police with him, who were killed. Spanish is a language, and mexican is the same language in everything but name. Learn some history as Spain existed long before Mexico was founded.
Also, if you think RE4 is that bad, take a look at the huge list of awards it won, and that doesn't sway you, then don't play it. Capcom don't need your love, so fuck off.
Lion is also in VF4, not RE4, get it right.
