Who in their right mind would buy RE games on PC???
 
Brando is a true fan, he isnt a walking contradiction. He may not like current direction of the franchise but atleast i never have to actually worry about him not knowing what he is talking about and trying to influence the way other people spend their money by pretending he knows more than he actually does. If you havent noticed by now, im not letting you BS people out of their money with false information just because you want to feel part of a community.

The best version of Re 4 is on PC ( the ultimate HD editon with the new textures and 60fps ) i havent encountered any bugs, same for Re 5 and Revelations 1. Both are the superior looking versions of the games and a nice silky smooth framerate. Rev 2 is nearly unplayable though unless you have a top top range pc and 6 you need to tweak around a bit. Upon initial release PC games can be buggy as hell. PC is notorious for that. But they do get updates and fixed in the end.
 
To be fair Solidus bought some RE titles on PC :monkey3 whether or not he's in a right mind............as for RE4, not all textures were updated on super ultra Ultimate HD remix

also Kiva, P_A contradicts everything. He's a futanari for God's sake, NOTHING makes sense! :panic:
 
Likewise. I know some people like the gamecube version because of the Turok fog that hides the draw distance and some people like that visual effect but from a technical standpoint there is no argument that the PC version as of right now is the king. When the RE4 HD releases on the ps4 comes out, and if it is indeed the ultimate HD release id dare say its better on the ps4 for the general person as you do need a pretty powerful PC to play the 60fps mode, with the HD textures at the same time. If the Ps4 can do that then hats off. But im not sure it has the juice.
 
Wii version beats the other non-HD consoles...the GameCube argument doesn't have any merit. It's like nostalgia bias
 
would be a shame if someone reported that for by passing the censor filter...hey Kiva, now's your chance :monkey3
Nah, im not out to attack anybody or run anybody off the board to be spiteful. I just have a low tolerance for BS

I dunno there are some people who should be driven off :monkey3 but how long till P_A would drive you to the breaking point?!

PA couldnt force me to break for the same reason i dont have them on block, i dont feel an intellectual threat from them. I almost feel guilty Whenever i bring up a point, and i get some Housewives gif as a reply. Its like the internet version of puppy eyes when you tell off a dog. But i do not agree with the practice of giving your opinions based on nothing other than speculation and second hand hearsay when people are wondering what to do with their money when you try to pass your opinion as first hand knowledge. Its a very scummy move and on a forum where its basically merchandise based be it hot toys, statues, props or even games and alot of us have to put trust in the people who are replying to us as to know what they are actually talking about
 
Hey guys. Umbrella corps confirms Wesker is still alive! :rotfl

O…kay. This is interesting.
So considering the abysmal player base on Steam and how freakin’ long it takes to find a match on PS4, it seems like a pretty safe bet to assume that almost none of you are playing Umbrella Corps, the new online competitive shooter set in the Resident Evil universe. That said, while delving into the game’s single-player mode, The Experiment (a series of Mercenaries-esque missions across the multiplayer maps), I’ve uncovered a bizarrely complex, and maybe even important story to Resident Evil lore.
First off, Umbrella Corps is a canon entry in the series. No alternate realities like Operation Raccoon City, or just for funsies plotless gameplay like Mercenaries 3D. Umbrella Corps is a new addition to the universe with new information about what’s going on- from the bad guy’s side. Set just after the events of Resident Evil 6, we play as a mercenary code-named 3A-7, working for The Organization (the underground string-pullers that Albert Wesker led in RE4) as you fight through hordes of the undead and Plagas-infested Ganado and Majini to acquire combat data, DNA samples, and more. When selecting which mission to play in The Experiment, you can read small journal entries by your commanding officer and lead researcher, Abraham Jackson, which fill in the story. He seems like a pretty twisted S.O.B., not caring if you live or die in these experiments, and eager to learn more about the virus and Plagas in lieu of anything else. Completing each level will reward you with extended information for each entry, which expands on the story.
We’re sent across the globe to the sites of many famous Resident Evil disasters- which still stand to this day, walled off behind quarantine zone barriers, still full of zombies and monsters. We begin by exploring an underground Umbrella lab, a Tricell base that was struck with a bio-terror attack sometime after Resident Evil 5, and move on to more famous locations like Los Pueblos (the village) from Resident Evil 4, Kijuju’s autonomous zone from Resident Evil 5– and even a full-scale recreation of Raccoon City, built for the sake of testing both the virus and the new Umbrella Corps soldiers. It’s very interesting to learn that these locations still exist (doubly so for the Raccoon City recreation. Recreations of famous landmarks aren’t alien to RE, Spencer couldn’t help but rebuild the Arklay mansion every few hundred miles it seems) and that they’re, for the most part, left exactly as Leon, Chris and the others left them all those years ago.

Anyway, when we reach the village location, Abraham starts commenting on how a higher-up from The Organization has come to inspect the experiment and how it’s progressing. Here’s what the journal entries say:
A certain… individual… from the high ranks in the organization will be watching. Be sure to put on a good show for him.
The commander seemed more interested in the subject than the mutated Ganados. His facial expression never changed but he asked a couple of questions. I guess this is my chance to talk you up.
The organization is watching. And that man seems very interested in this village. The way he talks about it… it’s almost like he was there when everything went down. Just who is this guy?
I promised the commander that I’d move on to the next level of trials. He made sure to let me know that he’s te one responsible for these experiments. I don’t think he came outta nowhere, he seems very familiar with everything. I’d better get on his good side.
Someone who was there? Very, very few people survived the events of Resident Evil 4, and only two of them were male. Leon Kennedy, and… Albert Wesker. Sure, he never actually visited the village, or got his hands dirty in any way- but he kept a constant bird’s eye view of the event via satellite cameras, and directed Ada Wong throughout the ordeal.
I’m fascinaed by what happened in the past. And with this guy it seems like he’s trying to make a show of his own strength. And with that my suspicions increase tenfold. I have to figure out who he is. If I can just access the DNA data that’s in the the archives…
Just who is this guy, and why is everyone so terrified of him? The more I see him, the more questions I have. I’ll do my own background check. In secret of course. I managed to get one of his hairs…
People are terrified of this man you say? Apparently with good reason. The very next entry is by a completely new person, Beatrice Bertrand, who comments on how the previous lead researcher has mysteriously disappeared. ****. There goes any chance of finding out who this man is… right? Maybe not.
During the game’s multiplayer, you will receive instructions from both Abraham Jackson and Beatrice Bertrand (not at the same time tho, it’s one or the other), and they will also comment on your performance. Chiding you if your team blows it, praising you if your team does well. If you manage to get a shut-out (defeat the enemy team without losing a single round), a very… interesting message will play which would seemingly answer our questions. I managed to get a recording of this too, during my live-stream the other day. Unfortunately, I’m dumb and talk over it, but you can still hear it. Abraham speaks to someone new, saying:
Well sir, what did you think?
In response, what is undeniably D.C. Douglas playing Albert Wesker says:
That was… satisfactory.
So… uhmm… Albert Wesker is apparently alive. I really don’t know what to say. I’ve never been someone that was pining for Wesker’s return in the series, as I was fairly satisfied with his death in Resident Evil 5. I mean, he dies pretty conclusively in RE5 if you slow down the footage. You can actually see his head disappear as one of the rockets goes flying through it.

I’m just as surprised as you probably are. I never actually expecting them to do anything like this, and I’m really not sure how I feel about it. It does raise a few questions, however. How did Wesker survive RE5? Was that a clone of himself that we fought? Is this a clone speaking in Umbrella Corps? Wesker was brilliant and evil, and always had an extra trick up his sleeve- including surviving death once already. He remained dead for years after the release of Resident Evil, until it was revealed he was not only still alive, but imbued with super-human powers thanks to the T-Virus. Could Wesker have done it again? Assuming that the Wesker in RE5 is a clone, it could explain why Wesker goes so off-rails in RE5. He quite literally loses his mind, and becomes a screaming lunatic with grandiose, comic-book villain plans for the human race by the end of that game. If it was just a clone, that might explain why Wesker’s cool deminor basically just evaporates.
What’s also worth talking about is what this means for Resident Evil’s future, especially Resident Evil 7. The demo for RE7 showcases an Umbrella-branded helicopter, and there’s lots of questions surrounding what in the world is actually going on in the final game. Could Wesker be involved? Could he be the man in the wheel-chair we see in the trailer, weakened after his conflict with Chris, or just really old (he’d be almost 60 now)? Guess we’ll have to wait to find out.
who
I’m hoping there’s more to this than just “Fans really missed him and we kind of wrote ourselves into a corner” the way that other franchises have brought back dead but popular characters (here’s looking at you, Star Wars). I’ll keep you updated as I find out more information, I haven’t finished The Experiment yet (it’s really hard). If any more information comes to light as to Wesker’s survival, I’ll be right back with everything I’ve learned. For now… I just don’t know what to think. Such a huge revelation for the Resident Evil universe feels wasted in this game, but who knows. There may be more to find.
