y'know, i was re-watching the cutscenes in RE5...something didn't sit right with me. and it has to do with chris' lack of...action?
don't get me wrong, we all know both chris and leon are the very definition of bad asses. both with communities devoted to their awesomeness and undoubtedly sparking debates over who is more of a badass.
now my problem is this:...we really didn't see chris do much in terms of kicking ass, all we saw was him getting his ass kicked. granted, he was facing wesker, who, with all intents and purposes, is a superhuman. and even with all the weight lifting and eating sandwiches filled with knives, chris really couldn't do much. not to mention juiced up jill, also superhuman.
leon on the other hand, you actually see him go toe to toe with someone, and that someone is krauser. now, no one can argue that the close quarters knife duel between the two former comrades was nothing short of awesome, and was definitely memorable. in fact, it's one of my most FAV cutscenes that i posed leon with his knife. what i'm trying to say is: we saw leon do something other than point his gun at something in front of him. hell, the scene between him and ada was the closest thing to the CQC from the MGS series!
in retrospect, i wish they threw in a normal adversary for chris to face off against, a scene that can show chris doing something extraordinary other than getting his ass handed to him on multiple occasions. maybe if the director of the cutscenes from RE4 was involved with RE5, maybe we could've seen a different chris altogether. but seeing as how capcom wanted the CS in RE5 to match those of hollywood movies, i guess we kind of lost that 'cool' factor from RE4.
not talking trash about chris, and definitely not saying he's a wuss, i'm a huge fan of both chris and leon...but ugh...just hate seeing him getting his face broken so many times.
YOU WIN
