Asking a little question here, seeing as I haven't seen it answered on any other forums.

Regarding

Spoiler:

Sherry. Her mother and father both die in the game. Following that, we are told that she is going to be "taken care of" is there anymore mention of Sherry, or appearances? I finishing up the RE: CV scenario, and haven't heard all that much.

[Ray]

Oh. Okay. Thank you guys!!

Though not what I thought it would be (well, I kind of saw that coming), DSC sounds, to me at least, still pretty cool. While damnable for the fact it answers almost NOTHING, practically shifts around CV/x, and is rather motion-sickness-inducing, it seems more... human, than most of the other REs. More character involvement, I like. I liek verrri muccchhhs.

I'll agree with the opinion that lesser weapons isn't necessary a bad thing either. I couldn't tell much different the various hand guns in the first game. I think this choice was made due to the change in control scheme of mapping the weapon selection to the D-pad.

[Skunky]

This might seem like a trivial question but is there a calibration screen? (a screen that allows you to correct your Wiimote's aim, for people who want to use a gun-shell or zapper. It would be handy to have the Wiimote actually aim where you point it)

Hmm, this is a good question.

I'd like to know this too.

Can anyone help out?

I don't have the game yet (fucking game retailers), but I have seen the ending to the RE2 scenario, and the way Sherry cried made my stomach twist. It sounded so real.

I have a few questions:

Was Annette any different?

Did the game showcase all of Birkin's/G's forms?

Albinoids?

Was the Nosferatu fight the same? Differences?

Why did Alexia Spoiler:

kill Alfred the way she did, unlike the original?

So, Manuela was Spoiler:

infected with the T-veronica virus, which made her bleed fire like Alexia?

1) Annette seems to have at least a little bit more sense in this game than she did in the original. In the original game, I think she took the whole "till death do us part" thing a little too literally. In this game, she's more trying to atone for what she and William did. She even tries to kill William. She's not as cold when it comes to Sherry, either. Though instead of splitting up to go find Sherry like she did in the original game when you heard Sherry's scream in the sewers, she says she has some "unfinished business to attend to" instead.

2) Unless I'm forgetting one of his forms from RE2, all of Birkin's transformations are present and accounted for. Also, he apparently knows kung fu now.

3) No albinoids in the game.

4) The Nosferatu fight is totally different from the original game. You even get to fight him while swinging on a cable. No, really.

5) It's not really explained, except for... Spoiler:

show spoiler

Alexia saying that he was no longer fun to play with, and he wasn't much use to her anymore. Also, she mentions he didn't wake her up on time.

6) Yes.

An update on the voice files, I unlocked all three from the RE2 scenario. They're phone calls shared between Annette and Sherry, with Annette telling Sherry to leave school early, head home, and then to head to the police station.

My guess would be they simply screwed up and called her Hannah instead of Hunnigan. If Ingrid was married, I'm sure she would have mentioned it when she turned Leon down in RE4.

Maybe she got divorced, then? XD

- yes. Annette isn't as cold blooded as the original. The later part depicts her cooperating with Leon/Claire to take down William in her own way.

- Yes

- No Albinoid

- Very different. He even mutate a little halfway through the fight, the fighting moves are different, you fight him in a different place and there's also no sniper rifle

- there's a change in her personality. she's more cold blooded and twisted. Apparently she is unhappy that he didn't wake her up on time.

Yes, but the administration seems to be different as the T-Veronica was used as a part of the treatment with regular organ transport. It implies that other medical drugs has been involved too. But generally yes

Annette was very different. In RE2 she was protective of William; in DSC, she wants to destroy him and put an end to the G-virus.

All five of Birkin's G forms are present.

No albinoids.

The Nosferatu fight was very different; it wasn't on the helipad at all (but still outside). Overall, I thought the fight was pretty cool, although the ending is kinda cheesy.

Annette I thought was done well...Sherry too. I found the end when they were off the train to be the best part so far.

I unlocked one of the voice files. They aren't just voice clips, as I originally suspected. And you unlock them the same way you do anything else in the Archives section, by finding the little Umbrella symbols hidden in the stages. It doesn't matter which difficulty you're playing on, apparently.

Anyway, the one I found is the first one in Operation: Javier, entitled "Communication from Krauser 1" in which he reports in to an Ingrid Hannah before meeting up with Leon. It sounds like it might be the same voice actress who did Ingrid Hunnigan in RE4 and Degeneration, except she might be trying to sound younger. I could be wrong, and it could be someone else entirely.

I guess this means Ingrid got married between the events of Operation: Javier and RE4? I can't imagine it being a different character with the name Ingrid.

So far the only things I've unlocked by playing on Hard are Trophies.

My guess would be they simply screwed up and called her Hannah instead of Hunnigan. If Ingrid was married, I'm sure she would have mentioned it when she turned Leon down in RE4.

I've finished RE2's bit..and I must say...some parts are downright laughable. The Leon/Ada thing...oh my god. That was just...absolutely terrible. They hardly exchange ten words but they seem to be head over heels. I had really hoped Capcom would have changed that but...meh.

Annette I thought was done well...Sherry too. I found the end when they were off the train to be the best part so far.

Right now though...I'm stopping for a bit to play some Assassins Creed 2. I'll play a bit more tonight...I'm hoping O:J turns out better than I think it will.

Anyone played 2-player yet? I'm interested in this game and a Wii in general so I can play with my family, so I'm curious to know if it's a fun 2-player game. Also, is it easy for non-gamers to play or is the shaky camera a big problem?

It takes some getting used to with the shaky camera, but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty fun.

How is the last bossfight and the endings? Does Manuela re-sing her song?

Yes. In fact I''ve died several times from that.

Spoiler:

Great, bues she still looks like a flower in that stage? Talking about that, Looks like now Progenitor is the dominant virus in the mix

RE DSC Tweeter party is closed... Finally. Last posts imply Leon wants Manuela to be his new love interest. Or that he is actually gay. "Delicate girl... Most beautiful young girl ever... Angelic girl..." And crap like that.

Maybe a gay pedo?

Hey, are the files as shrt as they were in UC? I mean, compared to the ones in RE5... though maybe that is to much, since RE5's files are really long (wich is great!)

I preffer RE5 files to the RE4 pathetic files, they were so cheap

His winter outfit from the End of Umbrella scenario in The Umbrella Chronicles.

I like that one and it also fits CV

I'm probably going to start a Hard difficulty playthrough today or tomorrow, just to see if I unlock anything by playing through the game that way.

I really hope that it does unlock something, you know, In UC you got the Deaths Door by finishing Raccoon Destruction with a A or a S
