For those who Dislike Resident Evil 4

Well then I must right some very angry letters...  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

But until that day, which will never come, realistically speaking, I won't bother with RE4 and anything that was released thereafter (aside from Outbreak FIle 2).  

[Zombied_Squirrel]

what if they made and Outbreak File 3?!?!  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

Well, just because they did that, doesn't mean it'd be just like the others. It would depends on lots of things.

1. Does it reference anything relating to Las Plagas, or certain events of Umbrella Chronicles in it?
2. Does it have the same gameplay mechanics of File 2, or similar to classic RE games?
3. Does it have T-Virus, Umbrella and Zombies?

If the answers are no, yes, and yes, then yes, I would play it.  

[Zombied_Squirrel]

Well that's good....  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

But then, if the storyline is really really terrible, then I'll sell it off as well.
For example, Umbrella Chronicles didn't mention RE4 or Las Plagas, and I liked the on-rails shooter aspect of it.
But it just ruined the original storyline so badly that I wanted nothing to do with it.  

[Zombied_Squirrel]

But was the gameplay ok? and if so what would be a number rating out of 10 for it in your eyes?  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

Well, depends. I like House of the Dead, I play those games at arcades all the time. So in that respect, yeah, UC was cool. But it wasn't scary.
It's not something I'd want Resident Evil to become permanently, but if you look at UC for what it is, "Gun Survivor 5", then yeah, the gameplay is great. I liked the gameplay better than Survivor 1, or Dead Aim.  

[Zombied_Squirrel]

So it has morbid hope...?  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

Well, it's actually enjoyable, when I muted it, and put on my own heavy metal music, (RE movie soundtrack.)
But put it this way, and I've said this before...
If my only Gamecube game was REmake, or even RE0, I'd still think that the console is worth keeping. (Let's say this is when the GameCube was still relevant.)

But I did not think that UC was worth keeping my Wii for. It was mindless fun, and if I had OTHER Wii games that I thought were worth keeping the Wii for, I would've kept UC. But as far as having an installment of your favorite game franchise goes, UC isn't worth that at all.  

[Zombied_Squirrel]

You are right there...  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

So, I mean, if you have a Wii, and think it's worth keeping, then UC should be fun, when muted, or at least without Sound Effects, cause the music in it wasn't bad, if you liked the soundtrack to the first RE movie.

But I wouldn't expect much of the storyline. Of course, if you expect total crap, you might actually not think it's so bad. I expected something good, and I was very disappointed.

Yeah. To me UC's a party game. Me and my friends laugh as we shoot zombies in the head for a few hours, beat the game, and then put it up never to get it out again. *shrugs* It's fun, but it's not even close to having the right feel to it.
Oh, and to your earlier question, RE4 for the wii. I have that version too. Personally I like it better than other versions. Don't know why. I think it's the more realistic aiming and shooting. I mean, still not scary, but it makes it more edgy for the action game that it is.  

[Zombied_Squirrel]

YAY!!! XD... I am getting positives from the evil one!!! lol

But therein lies the problem. Survival Horror and Action are two different genres. Just because guns are involved, doesn't make it action. And RE4 officially crossed that line, into Action genre.
