Do you think someone at Digital Extremes (the folks behind the upcoming Dark Sector) played a little game called Resident Evil 4?
Still, Dark Sector looks pretty good; dark and violent, like Rob Van Clief -- just the way I like it. To think, this game could have taken place in outer space, and do you know what that means? Someone else would have posted this video, because I think outer space is dumb.
Hey, I always thought RE4 was too short; this could defenetly fill the void. When that (I'm just going to call it) 'zombie dog' jumped on him, I totally had flashbacks of great RE days past.
Mizar..my first play thru RE4 was about 18 hours (and no I don't suck at gaming). Is 18 hours really too short? I could understand if it was an RPG but not an action game.
It seems more of the better action games have decided to copy RE4, I mean look at Gears of War.
Don't sweat it. Sorry for being an ASS, it's just 10am and I can't construct blueprints with a hangover, so Im fucked, therefor, Im also pissed. Again, sorry. (goes to crawl under a rock now)
When is this supposed to be released? It looks awsome but it still seems to suffer from slow frate rate in a couple of places. Hopefully that can be fixed before release.
To be honest BlindsideDork, I usually finish RPGs in 20-24 hours of gameplay. 18 hours is not bad for an action game. Sometimes I think people say games are short because the game was so good it left the player wanting more.
I was skeptical of this game when they changed the setting from Sci-fi to what we see now, but it's starting to look really good. I can even see some GoW elements in there.
I could see that with RE4...I've played thru it at least 4 times (2 Normal and 2 Hard) and I have been meaning to go thru a 5th on Hard with the Chainsaw Controller...if it was 40 hours, I'd die and be in heaven.
speaking of RE4, I just shattered that frozen motherfucking lizard demon with a motherfucking rocket launcher. nothing will ever be as good as that game.
And yeah, that blade looks like the thing from "Krull". That movie scared the shit out of me when I was a kid- I haven seen it in two decades or something.
I'd much rather have the original iteration of Dark Sector which was of a MMOFPS with UT-like ground combat and wing Commander-like space combat. I never undersrtood why they thought something like that wouldn't have worked.
What is up with Framerates on the 360, sometimes it's like playing it on my 9800 with max settings. I would sacrifice a little extra detail/effects for a solid framerate.
This game looks pretty promising. My only qualm is that the guy doesn't look very agile. Is it so much to ask to have a guy that's fast and can jump all ninja like? Imagine how much cooler that disk weapon would be if he could do that. I don't know. Maybe they're just trying to keep it more grounded in realism.
I'll admit to being disappointed by the new style of the game. The original trailer was one of my first exposures to "next-gen" gaming, and the Chris Cunningham-esque style sold me on it. Admittedly, the gameplay in the new trailer looks pretty decent, but I really miss the Squarepusher/Bjork video style.
The blood effects are really cool. But i still wish it was a stealth game on a space station like the original trailers were showing. I just loved that setting.
Actually, I thought RE 4 kinda dragged on near to the end. Maybe it was the fact that Ashley couldn't go more than five minutes without being kidnapped/sepparated, or that I didn't find the castle to be particularly interesting.

That blade thing reminds me of that movie Krull... speaking of which will we be able to shoot fire out of our hands?
This one wins!

Isn't this a PS# exclusive?
So that is one more reason to go the PS3 route than the 360.
dark sector looks like it is using it pretty well as well..
hopefully this came will be out soon since the vid looks like much progress has been made on the game
I think I confused with a different game and not opening my eyes....

That gunfire looked sooo much like the Gears gunfire. This game has potential I say!!!
I downloaded the trailer from XBOX Live
and I'll be looking forward to the release !
