    There's a Tiger Heli collection? I'll have to check that out.

    i think it actually just came out in Japan a few days ago. It's an M2 Shottriggers release so basically the Cadillac of shooter releases. And a physical copy to boot, that will only appreciate in value. :glad:

  2. The movie just looks awful, like some schmuck hipster had a list of RE moments he read off the internet and pieced a shitty scrip together. 

     

    'Ha... Jill Sandwhich?! I'll make her eat a sandwhich in [scene X]

     

    Itchy tasty? I'll write that on a window

     

    none of this makes sense. it's all haphazardly thrown together. all it shows me is the director knows nothing about the games.

    BC, what did you think of RE8? 

    i liked it but i'm kind of over that style of game tbh. 7 was spectacular but 8 didn't hit the same. Especially towards the end where they justified Ethan's superhuman power (LOL @ him re-attaching his arms and legs over and over), and the dumb, lazy allusions to Spencer and the old games. It just isn't RE proper. 7 is kind of an outlier because it was so fresh at the time, and manages to allude to/reference pretty much every horror movie worth a damn. It's a horror enthusiasts dream come true. 8 really doesn't do any of that.

     

    Gameplay wise 8 just turns into a a run of the mill FPS by the end. 

     

    i won't stand for a 3rd game in that style, and I think capcom knows that i'm not alone on that.

  4. remember when RE was half dead on the table? I specifically remember 2 times where nobody really cared for the franchise anymore.

     

    first was ~2003, with RE Zero on gamecube. check the reviews from that time. Every single review said how dated it was and how RE was a thing of the past. then RE4 came out and punched everyone of them in the mouth (i still laugh when i see the revisionist history from fake/nu-gen RE faux hardcore fans and faux Hardcore gamers trying to say they only like the originals. my ass - no one did back then, i was there).

     

    Second was after RE 6. the franchise had lost all popularity. it was about to go the way of dino crisis or dead rising never to return.

     

    then someone @ capcom had the bright idea to re-release REmake outside of gamecube. that re-release single handedly saved the franchise. when PC, PS4, and Xbox gamers saw what a real RE was, the tide had turned. then RE7 came out and was a bonafide hit. Everyone came rushing back.

     

    But really, it was RE2 Remake where you could safely say capcom was back on top. what an absolute masterclass, legendary title for the modern era. that one game alone has propelled RE back to a top tier franchise and brought a new slew of fans just like RE4 did in 2005.

     

    Capcom has really done the unthinkable with this series and kept it alive for a quarter of a century now. It used to be niche but now Its up there as one of gamings top tier franchises of all time.

     

     

  5. yep i feel so bad for Sasha Zotova, the RE3 remake girl. she has so much of her heart into the role and loves the character so much. she IS jill as far as i'm concerned. Russian or not, dub over her if her english isn't good enough, or get her English lessons. Her English seems good enough judging by her TY videos and streams. Even if she's rocking a Russian accent who cares at this point? is that going to break the immersion? LOL What's less authentic than the current jill? :rofls:

     

    this was her moment, and her character, and it was stolen from her.

     

    Awful film, director, and cast.

  6. so basically MS is future proofing itself for the inevitable sinking  console sales problem they've created for themselves.

     

    Xbox will live on as a service for PC and.... [fill in the blank platform X] that will allow Xbox Gamepass on their hardware.

     

    imagine what Series X successor will sell. Half of the Series X which will probably do half of the Xbox one, and so forth.

    It was obviously going to perform worse. Despite the huge PR blunder for xbox one it was still releasing off the back of the 360, it had some momentum. I remember that year while most gamers were looking towards the PS4 all the women at work were saying how their kids had pestered for the new xbox, and the casuals were eating it up too. This was reflected in the software sales that year I believe where most games sold better on PS4 but kids games and CoD sold better on xbox.

     

    After a gen of nothing though MS has no momentum and a lot of people switched. Somehow casuals still eat this shit up, the generation that got more into gaming with 360 and CoD4 seems to refuse to let go of xbox. It’s funny when you talk to them, they’ll cry down xbox is better than playstation and PC but literally all they play is CoD and Fifa two multiplat games :den:

    i've noticed that too with a lot of people my age. they have no gaming history before COD4, Halo 3, and assassins Creed. 360 is literally all they know, many it was their first console or the console that they really started to get into gaming with.

  8. how long can MS sustain a downward trajectory for their brand?

     

    Xbox One: 10 million
    Xbox series S/X: 8 million

     

    PS4: 13.5 million
    PS5: 13.4 million

     3rd party games have especially taken a hit on xbox due to gamepass.

     

     

    PS at roughly double the share of xbox for 3rd party game sales.
