What the? Someone better post this on the main page

I swear, if this is a movie tie-in....

[Krispy]

Well, I didn't hate the first movie. It was ok-ish and the Red Queen was a pretty good character. Given that the RE developers did "steal" from the movie in RE4 and did something really cool, I trust them with that one, too.

Oh? What did the developers steal for RE4? I had no idea about this one... or its something too subtle for me to make the connection.

As far as the tie-in woes go, I'm more afraid of what that would mean for continuity. That utterly destroy any hope of intelligently putting together Umbrella and Raccoon. The Hive just has no place in RE canon. I just hope they use the AI defense mechanism as an entity solely to the game.

Given that the voice-work for UC was done just a few weeks ago, it's probably save to assume that this other guy who mentioned to play Billy Coen in RE5 a few weeks ago (and removed this information from his website), really meant UC - not RE5. This is, of course, speculation on my part.

Yeah, I think so too. I fact, I already commented here the news about Billy, for the ones who didn't read it, i said:

"IMDb has updated his site, and fix a little error. The game they just to call Biohazard 5 is actually Biohazard The Umbrella Chronicles. Now all makes sense and Billy does appear.

About the hole red queen thing. I really don't wanna see Capcom stealing more material from the movies. Even if she is a good character in the movie, it just don't have any sense put her in the game.

[MarkGrass]

I hate to admit it, but I think it's a great idea and i'm honestly looking forward to it. I vaguely enjoyed the first movie, so no complaints here really. However, I must mention that other movie ideas = bullshit. I for one wouldn't buy a Bio title that had Alice fighting Nemesis on the roof of a building.

Well they finally updated the Resident Evil: Extinction sony website. All that is on the site is a wallpaper and the teaser trailer for the movie. Here is a link

have y'all seen this ? re4's high rez patch thingies ..

[Dot50Cal]

No, thats just that moron who took the existing textures, applied some terrible sharpening to them and adjusted the contrast levels a bit. Its not a fucking high res pack, its an insult to texture artists out there.

[A-J]

okey, calm down

[Scream]

Pwned.

[Dot50Cal]

lol, I just really dislike the guy. The fact that people are stupid enough to follow along with it and not see it for exactly what it is just pisses me off.

[Krispy]

While I agree that generally the textures are simply filtered, it looks like he did some genuine work on the jacket. The original jacket texture has much less detail than his updated one.

[Dot50Cal]

He didnt, He even admitted it on neogaf when I confronted him about it The white specs give it away pretty well.

[A-J]

conspiracy theorist eh, ..

[Arlumit]

I read game book that UC is coming in July 2007.

and also, Black Virus will be added into BioHazard 5 too.

[Krispy]

I believe your sources are faulty as July 2007 is passing us by and no one is even preordering it.

[Project Omega]

I have it pre-ordered, but the date I have is in October >_>

[wBirkin]

yeah i preordered UC as well...not sure the release date. kind of a random thing to ask, but does anyone know when "The Story Behind Biohazard" will be completed?
