Posted August 27, 2008 If it's a full remake WITHOUT DOOR LOADINGS fuck yeah!Come on, you'd take a remake even with door loadings surely! They left them as 'tension builders' in REmake, so there's a chance they'll do the same here. This thread needs to be taken with: A crane hand over a marble dish? havn't heard that one before!

Posted August 27, 2008 What the fuck?! Put the loading doors back in. It's part of classic Resi Evil lore. I love them. If this is true, then as a person who unfortunately missed out on 2, but has always wanted to play it, I'll be delighted. This has been rumoured about for some time, hasn't it?

Posted August 27, 2008 if this is true I don't know why there would be bits where there is a traditional view and where there is a RE4 view, surely everyone wants it thew new way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 27, 2008 if this is true I don't know why there would be bits where there is a traditional view and where there is a RE4 view, surely everyone wants it thew new way? The game wouldn't be right with the new controls all the time because the levels aren't designed that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This has been rumoured about for some time, hasn't it? a very very long time.. I dont ,i dont mind the door openings tey made it feel nostalgic to me also.. its the loading of going up the stairs etc that bothered me.. The original remake did an excellent job of fixing this.. I hope they dont wreck it with re4 viewpoint sections id be happy with a re gamecube remake again. Some things just dont work in that view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 27, 2008 If it's a full remake WITHOUT DOOR LOADINGS fuck yeah! Door loadings are part of the old school RE atmosphere, IMHO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 27, 2008 I'll believe it when i see the first screens or scans. Still, it would be so awesome if it were true. Should they decide to use the RE4 viewpoint, I'd imagine they would truly remake the game. Re-designed levels to accommodate the camera, but keeping the story in tact. They've already got the Ada and Leon models. Story is there. I could see this happening. For now, it's still wishful thinking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 27, 2008 FFS!!! FORGET IT... Grr, this pisses me so much, why the hell... Grr, words can't explain how much frustation i have over this announcment. Wouldn't be easier to get it into the VC, or something like that? FFS!!! I want to play a new game/a Resident Evil 5. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 27, 2008 This has been rumoured about for some time, hasn't it? yes: Masachika Kawata has expressed interest in remaking other RE titles (of the first three) for the Wii (in RE4Wii style, from the sound of it).Source: http://www.gamekyo.com/news20790_interview-video-masachika-kawata.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 27, 2008 Depends on which version he means. If he's referring to the N64 version, then it's definatly possible. I assumed he was talking about the GameCube version. If it's a full remake rather than a straight port (cough - Biohazard 0 - cough) then surely it'd be worth it? They've already said that Resident Evil 5 isn't coming to the Wii for the time being.
