New Resi 5 Screens are Snap Happy

New Resi 5 Screens are Snap Happy
Written Friday, February 06, 2009 by Dan Webb

Capcom today released a new batch of screens for the hugely anticipated Resident Evil 5. Generally the batch of screens released to date have shown a huge range of environments from the game; from the shanty town,  the warehouse, to the orange desert; and the new set is no different.

This time, the Resident Evil 5 screens take us to the lake which seems to be infested by some gigantic croc and a group of angry locals ... kind of reminds me of Florida (see what I did there ... Gators? No? *facepalm*).

Anyway, enjoy the screens. In a while crocodile ... Sorry, couldn't help it. I'll take a virtual slap from everyone for that cheese infested close.

Check out the full Resident Evil 5 gallery here to see all 10 new screens.

#5 Capcom has never considered Resident Evil as a FPS game and more of a Action/Adventure (Survival-Horror) genre. The controls are very simple and what have made RE what it is today.

Just because you have been babied into gaming and can't see anything outside of FPS doesn't mean every game has to follow suit. The demo was actually not that hard nor frustrating if you had a good team mate.

I can't wait for this game!

that no problem for me i jsut want to be able to pause and select a gun. its so annoying going ok that one while a big axe/chainsaw is going trough youre head and its not like its unrealistic you dont have a menu to slect a gun you just pick one. but yeh the shoot and move is a bit mad arnt these guys supertrained special forces? who carnt handle the reciol of a pistol while moving,

@6

I've been playing RE since RE1 and i'm going to have to agree with #5.

YES you should be able to move and shoot, walking forward or backwards and still being able to shoot would make the games controls seem more natural, just because you want to be stuck in the 90's doesn't mean all gamers do. Granted the controls have been pretty simple in the past blah blah. Things evolve, games evolve and so should these controls.

@6 you need to take it easy! did capcom pay you to say that.running and shooting is something i would prefer.i like res evil games i have been playing them since the first one came out so no need to defend it like a fanboy!


ps dead space was better and did more for the horror Survival genre then res evil has done in a long time.

i cannot w8 for this game!! the demo did not really do it justice but these screens look awesome!! by the way Webb you chattin some grade A stilton there m8 lol

Yeah they should let you move, slowly though. And maybe get more ammo unless thats just the demo. Cos I always run out and yes I take my time with headshots...But then again if they gave us unlimited ammo it would be easy and not as scary and get boring quick

Comment #15 by ademlakey
Friday, February 06, 2009 @ 11:15:26 AM

fighting a croc while not being able to move while we shoot should be fun.

Hey people who want to move and shoot at the same time, there's an OXM report on xbox and Capcom have confirmed you're able to do this...

was hugely dissapointed with the demo. I have to say the graphics are probs the best iv ever seen but im not too sure bout the gameplay.

Just bcos we ppl want to move while shooting does not make it a run and gun game. i mean it would be almost impossible to aim anyway if you could run i would only want to be able to walk.

Plus there is far too little ammo, aiming is poor and abit messy

Comment #18 by MG6490
Friday, February 06, 2009 @ 11:31:27 AM

I think the addition of a simple 'strafe while aiming' system would improve game play tenfold. Seems a bit last gen that you cant move at all when aiming. Sort it out Capcom!!!

Think Capcom will ever release another survival horror RE or just keep pumping out more terrible RE4 inspired actiion games

Comment #21 by Elimination

to everyone wishing that you can move and shoot, your wishes are true. the makers announced that there will be a control scheme on the full game called action controls that allow you to move and shoot. its on a video on inside xbox. its friggin awesome

This looks suspiciously like the crocodile/alligator from Resident Evil 4, albeit more terrifying.

The game looks great, the mechanics are horrible though. I played the demo for 2 minutes before I was so disgusted with the controls/mechanics that I had to delete it from my HDD.

Test the demo before you buy the game. Controls sux.

@6 you are 110% correct!

Comment #33 by MakoBallistic
Friday, February 06, 2009 @ 07:33:22 PM

Oh no! you cant move while you shoot! that means it sucks!!

cry me a fucking river, just because you cant move with the speed and grace of a ninja doesnt make it a bad game. yes, it will be hard, but its a japanese game, its supposed to be fucking hard!!

welcome to the world of Tactical Zombie killing.

Friday, February 06, 2009 @ 09:15:47 PM

wow...this looks tight but i thought they would bring something new...i believe there was a giant croc named del lago in the last game in a lake...and the controls r kind of annoying so i hope the demo wasnt on the easiest difficulty...and i used to play numba four way too much and i cant say i like not being able to pause while selecting guns...

So, in other words, Resident Evil 4.

When playing the demo go into settings and change the configuration layout to 1 (Resident Evil 4) personally found this much more responsive than the default.

Comment #44 by SteamingClown
Saturday, February 07, 2009 @ 05:59:32 AM

Gotta say, this game was awful in comparison to it's hype. I didn't enjoy the Demo at all.

It was resi 4 with improved graphics. Same terrible character control; it felt like Skate 2. It even had the infected villagers and the Chainsaw guy Fgs.

Comment #45 by MetalMike 420
Saturday, February 07, 2009 @ 07:18:15 AM

do none of you guys know that you can go switch the controls to a type that is like gears of war...running and shooting anybody?

Comment #46 by XII Blackhawk
Saturday, February 07, 2009 @ 08:30:48 AM

You do understand the reason you cant aim and walk is to make the game harder dont you?! its supposed to be like that they made the game purposefully harder!

noobs who cant deal with that must suck.. i mean look how impossible devil may cry gets!

Comment #47 by porkfriedtar
Saturday, February 07, 2009 @ 08:33:53 AM

action shooting=moving while shooting: control type added to res 5 for anyone that wants a more realistic experience

Comment #48 by MetalMike 420
Saturday, February 07, 2009 @ 12:23:07 PM

ahh, nobody here read comments?!? , there shouldnt be any fighting...they have multiple controls...

Comment #49 by vsbv-lightstorm
Saturday, February 07, 2009 @ 03:31:02 PM

all of you who keep complaining about not being able to move and shoot watch inside xbox videos on it and you will know that they added control scheme where you can move and shoot =].

Saturday, February 07, 2009 @ 03:48:02 PM

yeah i think people should just chill and wait until the games out before they judge the final product off of the demo. yes, maybe the demo has some flaws but you can't expect it to be perfect. its a small preview of bigger and better things to come, relax and just play xbox :)

Also, I know it's the same style of movement as the other games but It'd be nice nonetheless.

Well who cares>?
seriously, its how the came is made,
BTW im pretty sure CAPCOM is coming out with an "Action controller layout" which will let you walk while you aim..

Looks awesome. It never even entered my mind that Capcom might have "infected" African wildlife in the game like the crocodile. I wonder if anything else will show up? Lions? Zebra? Elephants? Rhinos? Water Buffalo? Hyena? Oooh, infected Hyena would be crazy.
