GameSpy writes: "In the three days that I've had the three-chapter preview build of Resident Evil 5, I've heard a lot of criticisms from a lot of different people. Now, some of these are totally valid criticisms, while others are more subjective and seem based on individual tastes... still others are completely ludicrous. So, I thought I'd take a moment to take these criticisms on point by point and let you in on which are grounded in reality and which are simply trumped-up hokum."
Circana data shows Resident Evil 5 as the best selling Resident Evil game in the US, ahead of Resident Evil 4 remake and Village.
So the most successful RE is the one where a white man is killing Africans.
This can't be real.
New leaks from Dusk Golem detail cancelled Resident Evil projects, including a Rebecca focused Revelations game, while stating no Resident Evil 5 remake is in development.
Capcom's willingness to invest in experiments and scrap them sets them apart form many other developers (Nintendo have a similar methodology). Far too often companies push a game setting or game mechanic that is just not that good and the final product is middling or poor.
Dusk Golem claims a Resident Evil 5 remake is not coming this year, with a Code Veronica remake expected instead.
Dude Code Veronica is bad too but RE5 and 6 were mega successful and to me it makes much more sense for Capcom to do them instead. Nobody cares about Code Veronica except niche fixed camera era RE fans, i bet most modern RE fans probably don't know Code Veronica even exists. Based on all that i don't believe CV remake is coming but we will see i guess.
Actually RE5-6 was not Classic RE game.. They are not even Survival Horror game.. They are just an action game with coop and named by RE... And for me RE Code Veronica was masterpiece.. I remembered the first time i played it in Dreamcast.. It was absouletly excellent game. And specially for RE6.. I was quit from game after the camera shakes when Leon's kick to zombies.. There's a video about RE6 and they are telling the truth about that shitty game https://www.youtube.com/wat... here it is.. Enjoy it..
people are DYING for a Code Veronica Remake. Not sure who you are talking to, but the die-hard RE fans of the series are very familiar with every entry. That's what it means to be called a die-hard fan.

I am sure If they were to remake CV that it 2ont have fixed camera angle. I hope whatever they do they take their time like RE2/4 remakes and not rushed with cut content like RE3 remake
Before they should do RE5 they should go back and remake earlier games. In a perfect scenario we would get CV and RE/Zero before RE5/6
It makes more sense for them to remake earlier games like Code Veronica. RE5 is a good game though - it's not THAT different from RE4.
RE5 just doesn't really need to remade in general. The co-op element makes it tricky - you'd probably add more moments where Chris is by himself enhance the horror but some would want co-op to stay.
RE:5 Was and still is a great game, with hands down the best Merc mode, that I still play from time to time with my brother.
RE:6 blah, I agree, it was awful.
Other than Code Veronica, 6 is the one ai want to see remade the most only because pretty much everything has to be redone; can't streamline that hot mess.
6 was pretty bad. 5 just tried too hard in being an action-oriented RE4.
In some fairness to Capcom, 5 was the first Resident Evil on then-new hardware for them (X360 and PS3). And it was pretty damn hard to follow up RE4.
Imagine everyone's surprise when EA of all companies dropped Dead Space.
The first half of 5 wouldn't be too hard to do in the more grounded style the remakes have gone for, but the second half gets pretty silly and uncomfortable at parts.
6 is a wash. You'd have to basically make a whole new game to salvage that one at this point.
Hopefully if and when they do a RE5 remake, they give it the RE3 remake treatment, because this is certainly one title that I don't want a faithful remake of.
Just because RE4 was great for its time and had the same control scheme RE5 is going to use,how on Earth does this mean RE5 is automatically going to be awesome when it launches next month?
Games and videogame code EVOLVES over time,I honestly do not care whether RE5 is an action game or a horror survival game,I DO CARE whether or not the gameplay experience is fluid and responsive.It's not fluid and responsive,and it-the sluggish controls-being deliberately cumbersome doesn't add a layer of thrill as the developers might have hoped for,rather,it adds a layer of annoyance that all and any gamer interested in the product shouldn't have to deal with.
I'll never spend $60 bucks on a flawed gameplay experience.In other words,I'm never going to own RE5 until the controls allow me to move while shooting/attacking the enemy.
Because its on 360. There finding excuses to give it full marks. What I find really odd with this site is that they have not given yet 1 PS3 exclusive full marks(its always 4.5/5)
1up and even gamespot are better. They are a biased site(check all there metacritic ratings).
are just clueless NOOBS. If played right this game is as fluid as it gets. Unfortunately there are way to many ppl without skills playing video games these days. getting the hang of the controls was always a part of RE and it's called LEARNING CURVE.
When are people going to stop passing off bad control design as "deliberate" for the sake of making the game more frightening?
