By the way, survival horror is not "I have only 2 bullets left and I have no way out other than this street full of zombies, I'm fucked".
I never got how people run out of ammo in Resident Evil. I've played thought the classic Resident Evils a good bit and I've never found myself worried about ammo. Granted the ammo is more limited but if you don't use it idiotically then you should generally have enough to kill everything that moves.

I ran out of ammo once. It was the first time I played a Resident Evil game. I was also 12.

Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

Something like Revelations would be great. As long as they don't put in things from Tomb Raider and/or The Last of Us that wouldn't fit in with RE as a series, I wouldn't be worried. And since there's no information about the next game besides, panicking is a bit premature.

I'm with Byakko still. I still don't see how a BAD game trying to emulate 2 GOOD games = a BAD thing.
Well, I mean, if they were trying to emulate Yoshi's Island or something, I don't think that'd be a good fit!

Yeah, I don't think it's much of a problem, and when it happens, it's probably because you've been shooting everywhere for no reason, and it increases your tension and the feel of survival. It's not overdone, and when it hits you, it's because you deserve it. I was more talking about this theme that pops up in discussions about the "new Resident Evil", about current gen games that give you infinite ammos or close to that, to me it's not a problem because not having it is not a critical point, it just pushes you to be careful just a tiny bit.

Yeah, Revelations was a really good midway point, keeping the old atmosphere with the new freedom of actions. On the ammos, it was tight so you had to watch it, but if you could do that it wasn't much of a problem.
Also Jmorph, the knife was broken as hell in Code Veronica.
What, did they emulate the success of Call of Duty or whatever, where you can just run up to a guy and slice his throat even though he's trying to empty entire clips of bullets into your head ?? That's too much riding on the success of other games ! :woeh:
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

You think 12-year-old Jmorphman knew that?

I liked the way knife worked in C:V, it was actually useful, and wasn't super overpowered.

And it multi hits just like Ken's Shoryuken! It's emulating fighting games too! Resident Evil get your own identity for craps sake!

I figured that out and I was used to the knife being godawful in the previous 2 resident evils. However I might have been 14 or something so there's that?

I would say that it was super overpowered.  You know something's wrong when I don't even bother to find the Magnum with Wesker in Battle Mode to save time even though the last boss instant kills with her grabs.

Yeah, I guess it was a bit too powerful. When I first played the Tofu Survivor I was like "oh I got this I beat Wesker's Battle Game after all". WHOOPS.

Then RE5 happened and knifes were nerfed into oblivion. 6 and there are exceptions in Revelations that kinda changed it back a bit.

Knives were never as bad as they were in Resident Evil 2 and 3. It took around 20 something to 30 stabs to kill a single zombie. That somehow didn't stop me from vanquishing Nemesis on the first encounter of Resident Evil 3 with a knife during a particularly boring day of my teenage years though.

I'd stretch it out to at least say knifes in 5 toke away any fun they were in 4 and how when you actually slashed someone, be it mook or boss it felt like I did something. Should have been a damn crime.

Depends if it's just an HD remake that simply makes every graphics HD (that's if they're lazy and take the easy way out to chug out a "remake"), or if it's actually a full remake, where they could add new control schemes and stuff. I don't really know how they could pull tank controls again aside from going straight for the retro/nostalgia look and that alone.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.
