The Crimson Reaver....
|
Okay for those of you who really care (probably not many) i recently purchased Resident Evil 0. This is the one that spawned it all. Except it comes before the first :rolleyes: anyways, In RE0 You have a brand new system to the RE series. The ability to control multiple characters at the same time. Unfortunately this is a bit hard to master at first, But those who have played the series before or just this type of game, Should catch on and master it very quickly. Now heres one of the clinchers in the story, This game isent centered around just the same 5 enemies. You will encounter all ranges of enemies from roachs and moths, to fly's and fruit bats, and yes you will fight the old stand by's to. The Hunters, Cerberus, Zombies, and The big guy himself, Tyrant. Now this is what weirded me out. This game takes place 1 day before the events of RE1's Arkly manor. There are at times VERY BIG plot holes. Such as tyrant. WTF?.... He is still in an incubateing jar when this happens and yet you fight him twice.... Weird.... Anyways the gameplay was fun and the puzzles at times got VERY challengeing. the fact that many of the puzzles required you to act as a team with your partner was great. On the downside besides the plot holes, Theres the very large load times. I got this game brand new outta the box and at times the cutsceenes took anywhere up to 1:00(minute) or more to load. But they where VERY well done. These sceenes are done in flawless 3d and the voice overs live up to the series in every way. Now the final thing on the choping block for RE0 is the fact that it was TO SHORT, and the story line just fell out half way through. Basicly your trying to escape the mansion(Why have 2...?) And beat this games baddy trying to spead plague and death for revenge on umbrella. But around half way through, THE BADDY JUST DISSAPEARS! You wont meat him again till the very end! I meen come on man.... That really hurt its score. So in the end, The good-Team system, Tough puzzles often involveing team work, Graphics and cutsceenes are beutiful. The bad-Plot cuts away, Tyrant(WTF?), Long load times, Bad guy pulls an Al capone(SP) till the end after half way through. I want to see Wesker and William more! The number rateings- Origanality-8,Still the same basic plot but really revamped. Gameplay-9,It is very fun and addictive! But for those new to RE may be a bit hard. Length-7,It could have been longer. Plot-5,It really took a hit here..... They needed to put much more thought into this, It seems like it was rushed. Graphics-10,These are beutifully rendered, the shadows, the rain the lightning all are just stunning! Cut sceenes-10,Same as above but with the adittion of flawless Matchup of the lips the voice acting as well as many other perfect effects. Enemies-8,Some of these guys were VERY hard. But the zombies just get to be old and tired after you aquire your good ol' shotgun. Overall-57/70 ,This game was absolutely great! At 21.43(Thats tax included)its worth the buy, definately worth it! Or even if your not a fan of the series you should at least give it a rent. (Game is rated M for Violence and gore. Expected length is 36-48 Hours first play, but lowers as you improve.) |

I need to get it.... But I'm not a big fan of RE (cept 4) so I dunno if I'll enjoy it. |
