    I'm still slightly irked that the alternate costumes weren't useable in campaign mode. It's about the only thing that could have given the highly linear campaign some replay value, and they blew it.

      I blame Helena's alt costume and crawling sections.

        ...and as alluded to in a previous post, it isn't such costumes destroy the characters.
        I'd agree, if not for two factors - there are more playable male characters (Leon does count) and far fewer revealing male costumes. I know, I know, female ones sell games. It would be nice if, I dunno, decent story and gameplay sold games instead and women could dress like normal women in most of the alt costumes.

          I don't think "sex sells" makes such a difference in sales numbers for videogames. Sure, there are some people who'll buy a game because it has women wearing sexy outfits in it, see Dead or Alive, but when you look at the best selling games you don't see much of that, for example: I don't think there's even women in the Call of Duty franchise and if there is than it's on story mode but nobody plays CoD for that.

          Way I see it, it's the game developers treating the consumers as a bunch of prepubescent boys who go crazy at the sight of a pair of boobs. The developers, or most likely the investors, are stuck in thinking we're still in the 80's and 90's when only kids played videogames and boys were 99% of the market, they forget not only that there's a lot of women playing games nowadays but that people grew up, so it's not that character with a big pair of tits on a skimpy outfit that'll make them buy the game.

          It's a waste of resources, even if minimal, during the game's creation and only helps in keeping the image of videogames as an immature form of entertainment.

            It's one of the arguments I most often see for why this stuff is there, and in some cases why it should be there. 'Because the main market is young men, and young men like breasts with there own centre of gravity covered by two bits of tissue and a lot of string.' Personally, I think what they loose from men who can't handle a game with realistic bosoms would probably be made back up by women who are tired of seeing there gender portrayed mostly as spank bank material, but...

              The women should be wearing heeled shoes though, imo. No fug cross trainers.

                I think the alts have some really low-res underwear texture applied under their skirts (yes, even Chris' kimono alt ) but you only rarely get to see it when the camera glitches. Not that it matters.

                  As far as I'm aware, isn't the average gamer of 30 years old? In that case, doesn't really make sense if Capcom are just trying to appeal to younger audiences with tits.
                  To be honest, I just think the developers and higher ups are pervs. Case closed. Though, unfortunately the sex appeal actually works - GameFAQS go crazy over Helena's ass for some reason...

                  That's correct yeah, if you die usually the camera will point up their crotch and it's all bad quality / low res / ugly. Especially Chris, people mistook it for his bare ass because of lighting and low quality textures.

                    That and we have to accept that they're also selling to a fairly large market in Japan, not just USA/European customers... The Japanese video game consumers love their boobies. And seriously, you're not going to see too many people complain in the US/EU either.

                    lol Reminds me of the RE4 days, Ashley screaming "Pervert!" any time you looked at her from below... Wait, Japan. I forgot. XD

                          Would it be alright to request a nicer version of Carla's promo CG render? Capcom has released high-quality promo shots of all the other characters, but not Carla's.

                          @Gradon

                          Speaking of underwear. Seems like they made concept art of Chris', but none of the ladies':

                                I can't believe Chris' weight is 100 kg in RE6! He looked a bit slimmer than in RE5.
