Umbrella Sciences website opens

There's a new clue up.

I think it's neat plus you can win some RE stuff.

I mean why not get swept up in it. At least they are trying to give us stuff to look at and get hype.

While I find a lot of this type of advertising to be gimmicky, trendy, and somewhat annoying, I really did enjoy reading the Birkin files and looking at the sewer map. Stuff like that is a treat to us old-school die hard fans of the early games, and gives us more insight into the side characters we all know and love. It makes you start to see William and Annette as actual people within the universe, and makes the story feel all the more real.

I'm not opposed to seeing another gameplay video, though. All we've seen in the last few months was the same area over and over again played by people who are generally terrible at the game. I'd love to see what they've done with the RPD and the hospital; hopefully we'll actually be able to enter the buildings!

I really like this ARG campaign.
Will it be important for the game? Probably not because the game is a simple multiplayer run & gun. However at least the campaign got my attention, something that various screenshots and videos from the game didn't manage to do.

It's a shame that there's so little content on those sites, though. Would love to read some more stuff.

And call me crazy, but I liked the live action commercials for RE5. At least the first one and the one with Claire. Chris' actor was kind of hot >_>
And I thought the idea of Chris being traumatized after the Kijuju incident was great; you know, character development and stuff. Of course that was before RE5 turned out to be just another shooter with a happy ending.

I still like RE5 though ;)

Well then its also okay for me to say stay out of it its a public forum right ;)

[nemesiswontdie]

Lol, has nothing to do with Blade Runner. I can couldn't give a fuck less if you don't like Blade Runner. I'm saying he can say what he wants. Its a public forum. Just because you weren't talking to him doesn't mean he can't reply to you.

[rehunk88]

just because i dont care about bladerunner XD

[nemesiswontdie]

I never spoke to you so just stay out of it thank you

Its a public forum. He has a right to speak what he wants.

[rehunk88]

Good advice, I recommend taking it.

[Wrathborne]

Newsbot people got the right to moan about stuff if they like .. if you dont like it then just leave no one ask you to stay

I still think ORC will be at TGS, and of course we are going to get new environments, for example we get a website for Raccoon City's Sewers? looks more to me like a direct indication of something that will be in the game, same as William Birkin.

If ORC was a Half price or simple little 10 dollar game I would udnerstand us not getting all these things, but even though Capcom has been bashed for content already on the disc I have NEVER seen them release a game that has not included a decent amount of content.

Streets: Obviously

R.P.D

Sewers

Labs

Hospital

And one more is my guess on the scenarios we will get in ORC

I really hope your right

You know exactly what you're getting from Operation Raccoon City, and yet people are still expecting it to be something it cannot and never will be. I'm sure there'll be some nice cutscenes here and there, but for people expecting a story-heavy experience, you need a reality check.

It's a squad-based third-person shooter. SHOOTER. Just like RE4 and RE5, except now you can move while you shoot. If you can accept the fact that it's a run-and-gun bulletfest placed within Resident Evil mythology, you might be able to enjoy it. If you're expecting more than that, you won't.

As for this viral stuff, meh. That's all it is, nothing more or less. They didn't have to do something like this, especially the Birkin stuff. It seems there's really no pleasing people. Capcom does something, you bitch. Capcom neglects to do anything, and you still bitch. It's asinine.

[leftshoe18]

It's pretty neat that they're doing an ARG for marketing - I love those. It's too bad the game looks like a steaming pile of crap.
