pedrocasilva Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 This thread needs more RE4 greatness: :love: (yes, I love images)
Cookyman Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 More good news for RE fans - I'm a happy camper today. I've not played the extra features from the PS2 version so I'm interested - and the budget price is icing on the cake! Mind you, I say budget price $29.99 roughly translates to us as £40 as we normally get royally screwed! I just hope they add more villager models so your not constantly chased by the same guys - dude with gray hair, bearded guy from the 1st house etc. I'm fairly sure I won't be able to resist this and end up buying it anyway!
Guest Jordan Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Wow, nice. You know, with the Wii's extra GPU/CPU power and ram i'd be happy if they just got some Anti-Aliasing in there.
DanielTimothy Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 WOW... Ashley ears were that big?!?! Still hot.
ViPeR Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 This sounds more like they're testing the franchise with the Wii setup rather than anything else. Why go to the trouble of porting RE5 when you can do the same with RE4 and see if it works. I'd guess if this was successful they'd probably try an RE5 port down the line. As for Umbrella Corp, well that's probably just to shut up the whining fanboys complaining the Wii didn't get RE5.

I think it's meant to be really pushing the PS3 and 360 so it would have to be a completely new build of the game to get it on Wii and I don't know if Capcam would bother!

Yeah Resi 5 is never gonna make it to the Wii not as it is on the 360 and PS3 anyhow, its meant to be really pushing the machines as far as they can go...
Darkspine S Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 When they say budget title do they mean £20 or £30? Please £20! I'd get it then.

Might get a sideline story to RE5 though. Who knows with these things.
Teppo Holmqvist Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Yeah Resi 5 is never gonna make it to the Wii not as it is on the 360 and PS3 anyhow, its meant to be really pushing the machines as far as they can go... It could be probably easily done on Wii if they would cut unnecessary crap off. I mean, Capcom has boasted how they are going to render each hair invidually, do muscle simulation for faces, etc. All stuff that is only visible on cut-scenes, and most people wouldn't even notice them if someone wouldn't tell them.
Retro_Link Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Might get a sideline story to RE5 though. Who knows with these things.Yeah maybe! Hopefully the Wii get's another third-person Resi game at some stage, that uses an updated Resi 4 engine. If sales of Resi 4 Wii and Resi:UB go well there's every chance!
Teppo Holmqvist Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Comparision picture between Cube and Wii version: Of course, it is hard to judge from scans, but at least it isn't looking worse. And Dr. Salvador's bag face is little different:
Retro_Link Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 And Dr. Salvador's bag face is little different: Yeah I mentioned this earlier in the thread!It's wierd you can see more of the face. Maybe it's one of Capcoms many attempts to make the game more family orientated!
ViPeR Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Yeah maybe! Hopefully the Wii get's another third-person Resi game at some stage, that uses an updated Resi 4 engine. If sales of Resi 4 Wii and Resi:UB go well there's every chance! Yeh, I don't think it's something that should be ruled out. The whole RE4 Wii idea seems like testing the waters. It's not like they need the money and gamers haven't been asking for it. It came from nowhere.
Cube Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Yeah I mentioned this earlier in the thread!It's wierd you can see more of the face. Maybe it's one of Capcoms many attempts to make the game more family orientated! Remember, these pictures are of the Japanese version. There are quite a few differences.
Retro_Link Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Shinji Mikami apologises about PS2 Resi 4; http://www.cubed3.com/news/7204/1/Suda51 Suda51's New Game & Mikami Apologises About Resident Evil 4 Quick News - Shinji Mikami has apologised to Nintendo fans about porting Resident Evil 4 to the PS2, stating it was not his decision. Mikami, now at independent company 'Seeds', also told Famitsu that Goichi Suda will reveal a new game this summer.
Cube Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Well, why doesn't he do what he said he would do? (i.e. cut his own head off). Or did he think everyone had forgotten about that.
canocha Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 the bag looks more tight... Remember, these pictures are of the Japanese version. There are quite a few differences. If i remember correctly it Japanese version was only missing chainsaw decapitation and explosive head-shots! Well, why doesn't he do what he said he would do? (i.e. cut his own head off). Or did he think everyone had forgotten about that. Im still waiting...
Aimless Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Well, why doesn't he do what he said he would do? (i.e. cut his own head off). Or did he think everyone had forgotten about that. Maybe he's the new final boss for this RE4 Wii-make. Think the Krauser knife fight, but more apologetic. The comparison that Teppo Holmqvist made makes the Wii version look better, I think. That might just be due to the vagaries of scanning, though.
canocha Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 The comparison that Teppo Holmqvist made makes the Wii version look better, I think. That might just be due to the vagaries of scanning, though. That comparison is not that fair.. that GC shot is not from the final game. Decent one!
pedrocasilva Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Im still waiting...It wasn't his decision and he efectively quit capcom for that, he refused to work on the PS2 port and asked to be transfered to the now closed Clover Studio. I don't even think he should apologise, let alone references to the "cut his head" incident, I rather have new games than a talented producer dead. I don't even care that much about the port, we just know it's how Capcom works.

It would already be a big help and I agree with you, but it would definitely be more difficult, in instances like doing the same game twice, with different engines. Capcom never said they won't do RE5 for Wii although I find it unlikely, but I also believe they are testing this market, releasing RE4 and REUC this year, if the games sell through the roof they might consider porting, IMO. I mean, if RE4 sells one million I don't think that's something they can say no to.
DCK Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 I certainly hope we won't only get on-rails shooters like Umbrella Chronicles. I mean, what is the point of the nunchuck then? If they could import the RE5 rescources in the RE4 engine, if it's backwards compatible enough, we may see 'a port' happening. That's not likely, though.
