Resident Evil 6 Trailer #1!

[Headhunter99]

I honestly really never thought crisp, black shadows of REmake would ever translate into the 3D realm of this generation and yet, here we are.

Also noticed that almost all the lighting came from actual light sources in the Leon portions?

i noticed that to and to me the game still as a long way to go yet but for what it is its looking good

[Nomad9026]

Well yeah, it does look like a Gears of war game, so what! This trailer's amazing, Leon and Chris together, zombies are back, new racoon city, and as good as I've understood, there's gona be a lot of both action and horror a like. Really looking forward to it!

Lather, rinse, repeat cycle for RE6 until RE7 trailer is released.

I'm pretty sure you once blasted me for saying the exact same thing awhile back.

Hypocrite much?

Just because we disagree on many things doesn't mean our thoughts can't sometimes align. If you've said that in the past then I commend you, even though it's not common knowledge that RE fans (and gamers in general) are fickle.

Otherwise, stop being a douche and insulting me just because you don't like me.

hate to say this game ACTUALLY looks kinda good. in the last 7 motnhs games have either bit my ass or just sucked out right but i gotta say capcom you still have al ong way to go before fans start to respect you again. after the UMVC3 fiasco and the basic killing of megaman last year you better be giving us something so awesome it makes us explode!

[Headhunter99]

this seems to suggest the game is between RE4 and 5 http://www.nowgamer.com/features/121...d_to_know.html

[Dark_Chris]

It is only speculations on their side. They have the same info as everybody else now. Famitsu says RE6 is OVER 10 year after Raccoon City incident.

Resident Evil 5 trailer released = RE community is full of hope and excitement; expectations WAY beyond reasonable levels

Resident Evil 5 game is released = RE community buys the game en masse

Shortly after immediate thrills subside = RE community expectations not met; game referred to as terrible and too action-y (though it contains nearly the exact same amount of action as previous installment)

Years following RE5 = RE community bitches about series, the emphasis on action, lack of scares (NOTHING in 4 was scary either!), story's lack of closure, under-development of characters, etc; many of community call the series dead, in need of change, etc.

Resident Evil 6 trailer released = RE community is full of hope and excitement; people who bitched about action are again OVER excited for next installment despite trailer showing more (much more, even) of the same elements hated on for RE5 such as action and co-op (or at the very least partner characters)

Lather, rinse, repeat cycle for RE6 until RE7 trailer is released.

I think you just described what is known as the Sonic cycle. . . .but that's pretty much what the franchise has become at this point.

[Rancid Cheese]

Gotta say I am excited for this and I say roll on November, plenty to happen between now and then though, a release slip for instance

[Vector]

I think Resident Evil is death (form 2004?). Be honest: This is not Resident Evil.

BTW, from NeoGAF (XD):

Because RE1, 2, 3, 0, etc. had no explosions or helicopters, right?

[Darkmoon]

I'm not seeing anything game breaking yet, just worrying. Chris fighting possibly uninfected enemies, Leon's power slide ability and Baldy punching out enemies that also don't seem to be infected by do seem to have robbed a carnival is kinda worrying. Not enough to make me think it'll be shit, but enough to make me cautious.

I just really hope the Majini are gone or modified to a point where they aren't such a crap enemy. If you're gonna have a smart enemy, have them act remotely intelligently.

[Dracarys]

Just have to say that the "10 years afer Raccoon incident" doesn't mean that the game events take place in 2008. It can took place in 2009, after March, and before October, and still would be set "10 years after Raccoon incident".

What stupid logic, if you refer to something in 23 months time you do not say 'in one year'. You say 'In two years'.

The highly anticipated "Resident Evil 6" is finally here. Set in 2013, 10 years after the Raccoon City incident, the world faces the horror of a global scale bioterrorism attack. Immersive gameplay experience, horror, excitement, deep emotion and dense storyline, set in an epic scale. More horror, more realistic and more drama. The best horror entertainment experience ever.

So the game is set in 2013, but takes place 10 years after Raccoon City? lolwut

[alexdz]

Maybe the president gets killed 10 years after Raccoon City but that's just a flashback or maybe only Leon's section is 10 years and the rest 2013.

[Vector]

None of this shit is official. It's all speculation. All we can do is wait for word from Capcom, or, you know, for the game to release.

To be honest it looks to me like capcom is actual trying to make a game to suit everybodies needs, in the trailer theres evidence of horror in Leons part of the game (which is what most of us have been screamign for since RE4), then theres chris's action packed Gears of evil style of game play and then im guessing that the Ashley/Scarface section will feature a fair amount of co op game play. As a fabn of both the old RE and the new style im pretty dman happy with what ive seen so far. Also the range of different gameplay that this game seems to be offering (ofcourse this is all specualtion on my part since it is only the first glimpse of the game) is very appealing to me as well, if done right it could serve to keep the game fresh through out the whole campaign (unlike RE5 which gets stale after a while).
Im loving the new epic scale of story that capcom is going for these days too, also the decent dialogue and voice acting is really welcome to the series.
All in all if capcom doesnt completely scrap this version of RE6 (resident evil 5.5 anybody?) for another, less impressive version then i think that 2012 is looking like a great year to be a Resident Evil fan.

lol the game avolves and changes over time it's just the way it is to me its more resident evil than re4 is at lest for now i have played all RES since the very beginning and like most original fans i miss the old ones to but things change the series would not survive if it didn't

Pretty silly to think that a series survives by changing what made it successful. The classic games hold extremely well in sales. But if a Gear of Evil is required for the series to survive then let's see how long this action trend can last for them.

[Archelon]

Pretty silly to think that a series survives by changing what made it successful.

Not really, considering sales for the series were on a downward slope until Resident Evil 4 was released. Just because it was once successful doesn't mean it's going to stay that way forever. And even if sales were still solid, the RE series wasn't nearly as well regarded post-CODE: Veronica as it was prior.

It should also be noted that very few series out there have remained successful in the long term, or at least as successful as they were initially, while changing very little from their original inception.

Well, unless we're talking about Call of Duty.

[Rombie]

It's definitely the most active year since the birth of the series.

It the most active since the TGS in late 1999. At that point we had RE3 just about out, Code Vernoica due in early 2000, and Survivor and Zero both officially announced for 2000. Plus a port of RE2 due for N64 and Dreamcast before years end, plus the Game Boy RE. Oh and Okamoto took it upon himself to say Capcom was working on RE4 for PS2.

Also, for the lolz:
