Although I've tried to stay as uninformed as possible on this game so that I get atleast a few surprises when I play through it, has anyone seen the screens of this in the new Game Informer? It was voted most anticipated game of E3 and I couldn't blame them.
Spoiler:
The areas included in the article (which I couldn't overlook this time) were farmland and forested areas. Now being in the middle of a corn field with a horde of zombies hauling ass at full speed closing in from all sides is fucking suspenseful as hell. I don't care what anyone says.
The tragedy is that the Biohazard/ResidentEvil series is not getting a Left4Dead treatment with proper coop & multiplayer on a large scale. There hasn't been any word on an Outbreak File 3 for next-gen systems and frankly, they screwed up big time with the Outbreak series. The first game Outbreak File 1 was originally titled Biohazard Online, planned to be something like a Resident Evil MMO, it had 20 or more scenerios but they seriously cut it down in scale, with less than a third of those scenerios making the cut. Biohazard as a franchise is in serious need of rescueing in terms of multiplayer treatment. Hopefully Capcom will see the light and either make a Resident Evil Online or make an Outbreak File 3. It's just sad that Left4Dead is not the game set in the Biohazard universe and it's sad that the Outbreak games are not the Left4Dead game they should be.
XBL and the PSN are really two un-tapped resources for Capcom. They could modify the games to run on both networks and release them as "Resident Evil Online" and have the new scenarios, and then have the older scenarios available later as DLC. But Capcom doesn't want to because Outbreak online was heavily interweaved with SEGA's SNAP architecture and it'd probably be too hard to reprogram the online portion even though they are doing it for RE5 and already have the online experience with a various games like Lost Planet and such...
Well, SNAP stands for Sega Network Application Package which is Sega's online gaming software. Capcom used that for games such as Auto Modelista, Monster Hunter, Outbreak 1 and 2, and probably a few others...
It's been delayed a few weeks until November 20th (tenth anniversary of Half-Life). I'm really hyped up for this game so it's disappointing.. hopefully SH5 is released in early November.
What I like about this game is that you can choose to be either a survivor or be part of the infected group which should be an interesting twist to the gameplay... Hopefully there are still enemies in the game like Boomers and such... Can't say I've seen much on them, then again, I have also deprived myself of content to be surprised by the game...
I'm a little behind on L4D screens and news, but the last I saw of it looked amazing. The animations were pretty jerky and needed a lot of work, but otherwise it looked pretty good, this was a fair while ago i saw those trailers as well.
I'm definately buying this for the pc when it comes out, ill be playing it for hours on end no doubt
Does anyone rememeber Brain Bread, the Half Life 1 modification?? That was brilliant fun, and had an almost perfect RPD recreation!
Oh ho ho! It's funny because curbstomping is something you do in Gears of War but you used it to describe what Gears of War 2 would do to the sales of Left 4 Dead. Oh ho ho!
