Resident Evil 6
 

Capcom released the logo and confirmed Resident Evil 6 is currently in development during Comic-Con.

The company also announced the official debut and more info regarding the game will arrive during the Tokyo Game Show on September 15 this year.

If the design of the logo is any indication, Resident Evil 6 might be more similar in style to Resident Evil 4 and 5 than past games.

LOL So much for the end of the main RE line

I don't think the logo tells us much. Capcom seemed done with the RE4/5 engine from how they talked about this. I imagine it'll resemble Revelations on 3DS, back to survival horror with more freedom of movement.

Hope there is less/no co-op. Hated RE5.

Pretty much in the middle of you two.

On one hand, RE doesn't seem like a co-op thing looking at the series as a whole. On the other hand, RE5's co-op was very fun.

Kinda getting tired of Resident Evil, tbh. It used to be great, but now with so many spinoffs and bullshit plot twists, I find the series to be...well, stale. They need some fresh ideas, and a generous infusion of actual horror. In other words, Dead Space ftw.

Used to be really into the RE series before 4, still havent even played RE5 even though I was lent it by a friend about four months ago so I'm not really as excited by this news as I would like to be :(

Dead Space is fluff, imo.

Give me the suspense of RE 1 + 2 with the gameplay of RE 5 and it can do no wrong.

Give us back something RE hasn't had in a long while. Actual ZOMBIES

Zombies have been run into the ground. I don't mind new cannon fodder.

Alot of ppl hate 4 and 5, but I think at the time, RE needed more interactive games. Both 4 and 5 had great stories in them and advanced the gameplay more. Not to mention, gave the franchise a different look and feel.

I do admit I loved the actual zombies and mutated creatures in RE1, RE2, RE3, and RE:Code Veronica. And the puzzles featured in them were awesome.

But what I want is a combination of the two game types. Having elements of all the games would be a perfect game to me. RE6 will definately be on my to watch list for the TGS...

Awesome!

Resident evil needs to be scary again. End of story.

Resident Evil Revelations looks like it is bringing that back from the older games.

While I never ended up liking the old tank-style controls, I did love Resident Evil 2 the most in the series before RE 4 came out.

Honestly, unless RE6 introduces new characters the series will never be scary. Chris, Jill, Claire, Leon, Rebecca, Barry, and I guess Sheva are basically superheroes. I don't mind them headlining action games with horror elements.

If you really wanna get technical, there's never been zombies in RE. Only a virus that at first corroded their brains and bodies, but through development has advanced them to more intelligent beings. And by intelligent I mean organized. Because clearly Wesker was never able to figure out how to advance the virus to defend against ROCKET LAUNCHERS. FOR EVERY FUCKING GAME!!!! Still, you're not going to nor did you ever get zombies. So just enjoy the most dangerous form of AIDS attacking you in every RE game. I'm kinda anxious myself to see what'll surpass the Super AIDS (Uroboros)

They were zombies.

RE5's co-op was awesome. How could someone hate that? The only thing that sucked was the small split screen.

Playing the single player and having that fucked up by a retarded AI partner all because they wanted to wedge co-op in.

Playing with a real person however totally negates that and makes it an awesome game which was a blast to play both in co-op story and in mercenaries.

The co-op feature was a cool addition. Having it improved the gameplay, not hurt it. Maybe with the AI it sucked, but with friends it makes the game more awesome.

Gotta say, I didn't enjoy RE5. It felt like a monotonous chore by the end, the story sucked balls and the atmosphere was lacking.

The series could take some lessons from the original Dead Space (and to a lesser extent, the sequel), which had the perfect amount of tension and suspense for a survival-horror game.

RE is like frollicking in a sunny wheatfield after playing Dead Space. Series needs to really crank up the horror if it wants to be as scary as DS. They are more action games than survival horror at this point.

I think the reason RE has fizzled out is b/c they focus more on story and less on horror. The first game had the perfect balance of the two. Of course, nothing ever lives up to the original. Plus, getting away from the zombies and leaning more for infected villiagers isn't a great idea.

Yeah, but kalyx is right about zombies being run into the ground. They were stale for me quite a few years ago.

I want zombies, I'll play L4D or Call of the Dead.

I really don't like Dead Space at all.

Ah well, I'm gonna go drown my sorrows by either playing Code Ceronica or RE4 again :heart:

Resident Evil can't be beat as far as zombie games go. Alot of imitators, but nothing as fun to me as RE...

L4D > RE in that case.

For me, zombies were besides the point in RE.

I didn't enjoy RE:5 (Gear of war edition)

I would still love for them to re-boot RE:1 (again I know!) but as RE:4 gameplay, would love to be back in the mansion with an over the shoulder camera shot

Someone managed to record the teaser trailer for the game at the Tokyo Game Show before Capcom officially shows it off later to the media.

<object width="640" height="390"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/i3Uz18tX0DI&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/i3Uz18tX0DI&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="390"></embed></object>

Capcom is claiming RE 6 will be the scariest game in entire the series and possibly the scariest game in the horror/zombie genre for games.

Also someone figured out the coordinates shown means the game takes place in Canada.

Didn't they say this was fake?

Capcom of Japan has said its fake but reporters and people who have seen the pre-released trailer meant for Saturday say this is the real one.

Also Capcom USA refuses to deny or confirm if the trailer is fake.

Its assumed the trailer was taken during one of the closed door private viewings.

Not private enough.

The place is Thunder Lake, up in Alberta

yeah boy

Nice... poster.

Logo clearly indicates the presence of zombie giraffes in the game.

Also

Looking badass.

Leon looks to have RE4 style sections and Chris will have RE5 style sections. New guy doesn't seem human.

Jill? Claire? Ada? Sheva? Sherry (an adult now)?

The other Wesker siblings?

Looks like they might be going back to the classic A/B scenario for the story although no way that mercenary guy stays alive through the whole game.

Yeah he's doomed, or primed to be a new villain. I like him.

Some new details were revealed by Capcom with the big one being the main reason for the RE games becoming a lot more actiony is due to the Call of Duty series.

Capcom wants the series from now on to be a lot more action-oriented so they can bring in the CoD and shooter crowds to the series. The goal is to generate mega sales like the CoD and Battlefield games.

Kotaku thinks the unnamed mystery guy shown in the RE 6 debut trailer might be Hunk unmasked due to his place in previous games was to clean up messes and save the situation he was brought in for.

Also the big monster shown in the trailer is a new enemy for the game and goes by the name of "Javo." This monster was explained to be a lot more dangerous and makes more of an impact to the game than the zombies.

6 player co-op? I heard that it was. Also, is that blonde bitch Ashley from RE4?

Or Sherry Birkin. But with the president's fate, most likely Ashley.

Dunno if I can, let alone want to, babysit her again after RE4.

Don't think it'll be like that again. We'll see. More interested in the 6plry coop. Most likely involving Chris' saga. Hope RE5's Mercenaries/Score Attack thing returns. Loved it.

As long as the 6 player co-op is a legit co-op, I'm thrilled.

It probably is legit considering Xbox.com was the one to leak all the features especially online multiplayer allowing up to 8 people per match (2 minimum).


It never got mentioned in RE 4 which term the president was in but since that game was set in 2004, its very possible the same president is in RE 6 which means Ashley would also be there.

RE 6 is supposed to occur 10 years after Racoon City got infected which makes the game set in 2008.

Capcom revealed some new details with the main setting being in a fictional city called Lanshiang located in China during the year 2013.

The J'avo, the new creature shown in the trailer, is a Siberian demon monster who can regenerate similar to the Rgenerators in RE 4 but are a lot smarter and can use weapons.

The gameplay style has evolved allowing moving while shooting, sliding, a better cover system than in RE 5, and the ability to roll. Melee attacks have been tweaked to allow more options.

OMG I would. one of the reasons I loved RE4 is cause Ashley is so hot.

Mmmm.

Happy I could see her again!

Or you could just google artwork of her?

OMG

Still not sold 100% on this after the utter shitfest ORC was. Then again, I didn't expect a whole lot from it in the first place.

ORC was by a western developer and was a silly alt. side story to the franchise. You did know that, right?

Yes, I knew it was shit cannon. Why else would Ada be in Racoon City? She just stopped by to give Leon a quick bj while he fought off ODZ?

I'm not just talking canon, but it's a side thing on a production level. Don't let ORC be the basis for future expectations.

I thought Capcom stated before ORC was always going to be more of a side project than actually becoming a basis for the series. The only real thing it could contribute is the shooting aspects of future RE games.

RE 6 looks like its going to be one of those games where its a 50-50 split between action and horror but done mainly with which character gets used (ex. Leon for survival horror stuff, Chris for action stuff).

Aside from the trailer there is also a good number of screenshots and who the three teams will be. Leon/Helena, Chris/Piers and the Mercenary character called Jake Muller will be teamed with Sherry Birkin.

I am looking forward to this, the three different stories weaving into each other could be good and although it's probably going to be a bit silly, interested in seeing the whole Weskers son thing and what his role is.

It is, I just thought it was odd that Ermax's rightful displeasure with ORC influenced his early thought on a main series game.

I hope theres a co-op mode with Ashley so u can stare at her cute little butt

Sorry, I hope their isn't a retarded AI that is my co-op.

Ya. Didn't play a single second of the game without another person there helping me. Co-op was a blast, and mercenaries was incredible and intense.

I enjoyed the co-op in RE5, and Mercenaries was shockingly addictive. I can understand having a single player RE, though. So a decent compromise would be to have a badass Mercenaries mode, and maybe a separate co-op campaign like Lost in Nightmares.

Anyone who hated the AI in L4D was retarded. The AI in that game was far more helpful than in games like Army of Two, or Brink for example.

Even though it had a single mode.

And I played L4D on my own for ages until I got it on PC. It wasn't even just the AI though, horrible level design in RE5 too.

I'm cautiously optimistic about this after reading previews, but fuck me Capcom has been dropping the ball a lot recently.

Just read that 3 different stores will be carrying 3 different "DLC" maps as pre-order bonuses.

*sigh*

Gamestop, Best Buy, and Amazon. I wouldn't bother because you know it won't be "exclusive" for long. It is Capcom after all. They'll milk this shit for every penny. Speaking of which, this is likely right up Kalyx's alley.

http://kotaku.com/5900944/resident-e...ctors-edition/

I don't buy special edition packages. Personal policy of mine. Last one I got was Devil May Cry 4, and that was for the anime DVD that made it a good deal.

But Kalyx, this $1000 CE comes with Leon's leather jacket!

Yeah, which is a really dull jacket.

If I was to get a special edition with a leather jacket, I'd get a Wolverine movie one.

So get it, I'm straight.

I have plenty of friends with XBL, none of whom had RE5. So being forced to play with an AI, who while standing in a conveyor belt headed into an incinerator gets called back and responds with "Are you crazy?" Before promptly turning into ash and causing a level restart gets a little irritating at times.

I had her carry all the stun rod and all my ammo after firing four of my Magnum hurts at normal majini.

Add me on Live then, I still cycle RE5 into my rotation from time to time.

Helmsphere

Ill add you, but I sold it as soon as I finished it. Might pick it up again cheap though since id have someone to play with.

RE5 was feces. This better be just like RE4 or it's going to get shit on again.

I really need to play RE4.

I want another RE game that let's you explore and do your own thing, like the mansion or the police station in the first 2 games, or pretty much all of Code Veronica. You get stuck on a puzzle, you piss off to another room and do something else, unlike the newer ones which have an invisible hand behind you shoving you from A to B and so on.

I did enjoy RE 4 and 5, just didn't see much RE in them.

Official box art released by Capcom. PS3 version is exactly the same except for the brand logos.

http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-6s-cover-art/

Pretty generic.

said D Mac

sorry, i didn't mean to ejaculate semen all over the front of your game box.

Yeah your special

my special what?

I don't know.

I wish they would bring back Ashley and let u play as her :naughty: :naughty: :naughty:

*sigh*

2 collector's editions were revealed with one set just for the PS3 and the other for the Xbox 360. Both are priced at $90 and arrive on the same day as the regular game on October 2.
