(sorry for doubel post, typing on the PS3)
Anyway, to answer that, Canas... I haven't heard any of the bulk of the dialogue, so that pretty much eliminates me from Noobdom. Now, I don't know how it was written, maybe it wasn't too bad. But from the odd 1 sentence clips that I have heard from characters like Wesker, Excella(rate your breath), and that guy with a Salazar wannabe voice... What was his name? Diego or something? Anyway, what I heard from them, the way the dialogue is delivered is pretty ******** terrible. Like, it's terrible even by horribly cliche' JRPG standards. So yes, it makes you a noob in the context. Let me remind you, that RE5 is supposed to be... SUPPOSED TO BE taken more seriously than games like Kingdom Hearts. But how can it be?
Does it make you a noob if you think that the ideas of Las Plagas, and mind controlling crystals, are believable?

Not necessarily. It was made for both n00bs and veterans of the series' storyline.
*Ahem*
Correct me if I'm wrong, because it's been a while since I played RE4, but I'm pretty sure the El Gigantes were manufactured in some way. And I've heard this whole thing before, Bio. And I agree with you. For the most part. Yes, RE4 broke the rules of the established artificial universe, but that doesn't mean it's in the fantasy genre. Fantasy is a genre that uses magic and other supernatural forms as a primary element of plot, theme, etc. Las Plagas aren't magical or supernatural. Fantasy doesn't pertain to them; it pertains to things like moving statues. But more importantly, it doesn't pertain to Jill's mind-control device, as it is explained scientifically.
Alkaizer, play RE5 before you make statements like that. Or watch the cutscenes on Youtube or something. Or just... know your s**t before you speak on it. Wesker does use a secondary electronic device to control her. What, do you think he needs an actual video game controller or something to control her every individual move in order for it to fit into the realm of science fiction? He just brainwashed her, dude. He programmed her to do certain tasks. And finally, the whole Jill thing is explained better in the actual file contained on the RE5 disk. What I posted was just an excerpt from the RE wiki on it. I couldn't find the actual file in its entirety on the net, and didn't feel like typing it out word-for-word.
My suggestion is... you guys actually play RE5. That way, the things you say might actually have some merit. But as it stands, you're speaking on something in which you know nothing of the details and nuances. And I don't feel like sitting here and explaining it all to you. It wouldn't even matter if I did anyway. I could give you a scientific explanation of every little facet of the mind control crystal thing, and you'd still say it's fantasy. Well, the mind control crystal is no less believable to me than the T-Virus or G-Virus, or anything else that has ever happened in RE's plot. And on a final note before I pose my question, I have never taken RE's plot seriously. It's always been silly and cheesy. Fun silly and cheesy, but silly and cheesy nonetheless. And if you ever took RE's plot seriously, then you're a n00b.
Does it make you a n00b if you only read/heard some things about RE3, or watched some cutscenes, and then said that the Nemesis didn't make any sense; that he wasn't explained, and that he was, in fact, fantasy?

Well, if it's not fantasy, then it's soft, soft, soft, fluffy pillow, teddy bear soft science fiction. Where, soft science fiction is something that's less believable, like The Matrix, X-Men etc... And Hard science fiction are shows like ReGenesis (like you know what I'm talking about), or... Well, pretty much any show where you have to do your research to actually disprove its possibility. And hey, if you're that much of a skeptic, that's too bad. Because Viruses CAN be synthesized, there ARE big corporations out there, that COULD be working on stuff like this. That's what made Resident Evil scary. But El Gigante, mind control devices, gigantic parasites, it's laughable.
To answer your question, yes, it makes you a noob, because you haven't played RE3 and haven't done nearly enough research on it. And if you're a person like that, I'm betting your favorite RE is 4.
Does it make you a noob if you think Las Plagas are a virus, and don't know the difference between a virus and a parasite?
