I do agree with you on 4, but it did still have elements of the original games. Like puzzles and parts were you really did feel trapped (First village area and a few other parts). It also didn't just give out ammo like candy. My biggest problem with 5 is the fact that you can just jump into any section of the game at any time. So I can just go back to an easy level and get ammo and jewels to sell. I understand why they did that for net play, but for single player that should have been different
I look at Nier like an experience, there really is not anything out there like it, and the soundtrack...don't even get me started on the soundtrack....
Do you mind if i ask rob. How come when looking for reviewer averages you quote from GameRankings? Almost everyone else who does that uses Metacritic. Just wondering.
I knew this game would suck before it was released. I dont know how people couldnt see it. A RE game that is a shooter? Then they make some crappy "what if" lets go kill leon story. 6-15-12 436pm
so rob, if i had to choose between a shitty socom rehash (this game) or wait until a shitty hybrid of gears of war and rainbow six comes out (RE6), what should i pick? (inb4 neither)
alright bro. ORC is definitely NOT a bad game and will be remembered for it's greatness among the Resident Evil games....(eye roll)...listen...why the hell should I listen to you?! You are just a damn mental patient!
Re4 is the best in the series:possibly Re4 led to shitty call of duty style future games:true fact. Each one got worse until everything after 5 was vomit.
Thank you. Very much enjoyed this video. The content you've produced since your most recent return has been the best so far, in my opinion. The honest, (I assume) unscripted opinion videos are definitely my favourite of yours. Keep up the good work!
my biggest problem with 4 was it enerally lack of interaction, everything was done by simply pressing a/x when the game tells you to rather than having a button for separate commands. the game feels just half assed to me, like they tryed to make a survival horror game, then started to go into action but didn't go through. just my two cents though lol.
the ai kinda reminds me of the gears of war 1 and 2 ai. in one the ai trys to kill themselves then in 2 now this use to piss me off in 2 most times if you go down but not out they will just sit there until you die but it only happens in the story mode
Here's a nice suggestion: Take that really awesome possibility of multiple endings and being able to kill protagonists, use villains and put some effort next time in that than focus on multiplayer which is practically Gears of Zombies!
The old REs with the classic camera are so unique that they will always hold a place in my heart. But I will always see RE4 as a classic too. It took the series to a new direction (in a good way) and improved the controls and horror element. I played RE 1-3 for the first time a couple months ago and it didn't really do much but made me run away from Nemesis xD
The only thing I found good with RE6 was the idea of having intersecting stories. That was pretty cool. But yeah, I remember it being so hyped when the first trailer came out.....IN JANUARY!!!! Who releases a trailer that early? Seriously? And come October, the game's release, everyone's like "OMGOMGOMGOMG CAN'TWAITCAN'TWAITCAN'TWAIT!!!!................Awwwwww (.____. )"
i swear before developers make a game they should sit down and go to youtube and listen to what the fans say about their previous game and read some of the comments. If I could be in contact with a developer you would be one of the youtubers i will tell game developers to watch and i would say it is mandatory for all game developers to watch and take notes.
watching the game being played and playing it for yourself are two different things, you can't judge a game on review scores from other people, and you can't have a valid view on a game without playing it for yourself first, doesn't matter how long you've been gaming, you can't know a game is good or bad without playing it.
i have always been a fan of resident evil for the 15 years of my life i played it when i was 5 i loved resident evil and yes i consider myself a die hard fan, i have the books and the games. I personally believe 0-3 were amazing it was original and just had the best replay capabilities to offer in my opinion now 4 did change a lot and so forth but i must say the AI was a disappointment and i truly felt like my heart was just broken after seeing the crap that has been made throughout the years. i have resident evil operation raccoon city and i seriously was like no... they screwed the story and just made something for what it seemed like shits and giggles to me. i couldn't even finish it and this is coming from a die hard resident evil fan i even played the ones for phone apps .___. sad isn't it but i was just disappointed...
With code veronica, you need to use your knife to conserve ammo. The knife can actually be used to kills zombies, unlike the other resident evil games.
I was looking fwd to RE ORC but having seen footage on you tube I will wait a long long time before considering buying it. It will have to be £5 or less it looks so bad. How could they release this and expect gamers to like it?
I have said this many times before BUT my first Resident Evil game was 4 on the Gamecube and I absolutely loved it. I suppose I could see how old school Resident Evil fans could think 4 began a downward spiral but for me, I just can't see it. I enjoyed 5 and Revelations as well.
4 was also an action game. the final survival horror one was zero. But i do agree that 2 and 3 are the best. Code veronica and zero were also really cool.
Rob , very good video , agree on most of what you said. Surprised you didnt mention RE6 having AI co-op gameplay and being fully action oriented . :( keep up the great work
yes re operation raccoon city sucks, and the number one thing is the fact it messes up the RE2 Story line, resident evil 6 was ok i like how there brought back sherry, thats it
I personally enjoyed the game solely for the fact that it opens another universe were the bad guys actually win. While yes the game sadly wasn't executed the way we all wanted, Wolfpack is one of the most badass teams in the entire Umbrella Corporation.
Yes it is, it is the worst game ever developed. They do not put time and effort into their games. If their wasn't anymore kids playing it, your precious little games fanbase would go plummeting.
Rob, this is Slant 6, the same dev's who had to defend themselves every single day after SOCOM Confrontation was released. This being a game that was worse than Skyrim for game breaking bugs and glitches. So this don't surprise me one little bit.
You know, I really wanted to like ORC because, to me, the WOLFPACK were the glue that held the game together. I wish that WOLFPACK was part of the RE canon.
I haven't heard anyone bitch about resident evil 4 . Everyone wanted something new, something other than zombies, and guess what we got something new. However with resident evil 5 the resident evil series got a lot of new fans, but lost some in the process because of the way it was going.
Actually Destructoid gave Deadly Premonition GOTY juxtaposed to IGNorent's 2.5 or something... It's a great game though, if you like Twin Peaks and story.
04:21 i love that bionic commando song is a classic..i wont go to far to say that i hate RE orc cs it has he good points,& is a background story of re2&re3..i dint feel like i loved but it stillno bad,but honestly i like RE Revelations alot more..it felt like a true RE game to me..i prefer RE revelation way more than Re orc..btw i love RE code veronica is 1 of most favorite & beloved RE games of all times,you should to get through the whole game is amazing RE experience!!
Theres things about it that suck. The characters have no personality and it doesnt really classify as an RE game. Its survival horror not shooting. I wouldnt be surprised if some developer came out with a new RE game and its a puzzle solver.
this isn't a review, the game looks like shit, that's what I stated in the video, the majority agrees, nothing in this game looks exciting and as a matter of fact looks janky as hell, glad you like it but that's your opinion, and this is mine. however, your opinion, even after playing the game, is still the minority. this game is shit and will be remembered as such.
RE sucks since 5, cuz they weren't developed by the original creator, Shinji Mikami (I thinks is his name), and he wasn't agreed that the games was't created by him... if he makes RE7 I think it would save RE again returning the survival horror we like and love...even RE4 has their scary moments (like the fucking regenerators)... I'm praying for shinji to come back to develop RE again.
totally agree on that too. I hate those interactive cut scenes that are not really interactive at all. Press A really fast guys!!! Shit is dumb. That's why I say it could have been better, because of annoying shit like that.
I think the real reason this game was made is because people kept bitching about how resident evil5 played like resident evil4 and how you couldnt move while shooting and shit like that, so they made a game that didn't play like resident evil4 or 5 or well, hell any of the resident evil games.
i think they wanted to "try stuff out" after seeing that games like L4D are successful. so which next game could satisfy killing zombies? you guessed it..
Resident Evil 4 was amazing imo. You were totally alone in a hostile village, it was scary because it's difficult to handle mechanics (you know, you can't move while aiming and such) and you had that Ashley who was useless (people call her a bad AI, I don't think she was that bad).
So this seems like a last second 'let's fuck everything up' It also seems like a terrible side project to RE6 which from what I have seen looks pretty similar to racoon city.
i dont think the biggest problem with operation raccoon city is its choice of genre, seeing as it is a spinoff. the problem is that its made by "slant 6," the people that made "socom confrontation." Thus, the game is lacking in polish, the controls are clunky, the mechanics are all flawed or broken, there is sub par presentation, there is little strategy or tactics, the graphics are mediocre, and the online is a joke. this game could have been done decently well.
These old videos are still gold.
all I know is if it's between playing a poorly made Resident Evil squad based shooter or death, I choose death.
it's from bionic commando, it's called heat wave or area 5
They eventually made a final fantasy battle royale shooter…. Rob is a psychic
Music in the background?
Background music that starts at 7:15
is that Zoda's Revenge I hear in the background.
6:32 -> Is the music from Bionic Commando?
Silent rob giving his mind to the internet public that makes us happy a voice to speak it up
Resident Evil Code Veronica is awesome!!! I loved that game
But I thought the origins of XxDungeonMonstersxX's screen name was just a legend, only spoken in hushed tones.
Rob, what's your opinion on Resident Evil 0, and Revelations?
I do agree with you on 4, but it did still have elements of the original games. Like puzzles and parts were you really did feel trapped (First village area and a few other parts). It also didn't just give out ammo like candy.
My biggest problem with 5 is the fact that you can just jump into any section of the game at any time. So I can just go back to an easy level and get ammo and jewels to sell. I understand why they did that for net play, but for single player that should have been different
Off subject, can you please make a video saying what you think about a Twisted Metal Movie?
Hey Rob, what was the name of the song in the RE misprint video, man? I can't find it.
hey rob what do you think about the resident evil 6 that is coming up?
I look at Nier like an experience, there really is not anything out there like it, and the soundtrack...don't even get me started on the soundtrack....
Loving your old videos Rob
Can anyone name the song at around 04:22?
Do you mind if i ask rob. How come when looking for reviewer averages you quote from GameRankings? Almost everyone else who does that uses Metacritic. Just wondering.
I knew this game would suck before it was released. I dont know how people couldnt see it. A RE game that is a shooter? Then they make some crappy "what if" lets go kill leon story.
6-15-12 436pm
Is there a demo version of this game on play station network I want to try it before I even consider spending money on it
6:54 - 7:05
Rob rap.
What is the background music used?
so rob, if i had to choose between a shitty socom rehash (this game) or wait until a shitty hybrid of gears of war and rainbow six comes out (RE6), what should i pick? (inb4 neither)
alright bro. ORC is definitely NOT a bad game and will be remembered for it's greatness among the Resident Evil games....(eye roll)...listen...why the hell should I listen to you?! You are just a damn mental patient!
Re4 is the best in the series:possibly
Re4 led to shitty call of duty style future games:true fact.
Each one got worse until everything after 5 was vomit.
Nah the resident evil remake on gamecube was the best.
Its not re4 its capcom
That]s the kind of smile that warms my heart...
The troll music in RE ORC's result screen made me physically ill.
Left a like on this video because of the background music~
You know what song it is?
Thank you. Very much enjoyed this video. The content you've produced since your most recent return has been the best so far, in my opinion. The honest, (I assume) unscripted opinion videos are definitely my favourite of yours. Keep up the good work!
What do you think of Resident Evil Zero?
Cheat codes might have done the trick for some people because they couldn't be bothered going back and getting ammo.
my biggest problem with 4 was it enerally lack of interaction, everything was done by simply pressing a/x when the game tells you to rather than having a button for separate commands. the game feels just half assed to me, like they tryed to make a survival horror game, then started to go into action but didn't go through. just my two cents though lol.
That rhyme was incredible. Literally made my day
lol i just subscribed. i love your type of rage.
The way i see it, the day a regular super mario bros game becomes a first person shooter I will consider that the end of gaming and the crash begins.
I'm an OG Gamerankings fan. I loved their old layout a lot more and hate the new one but I just go there out of habit at this point. lol
LOL, if someone get scared in RE5, have you seen Ju-On: The Grudge? (is only for wii) and GOD, THAT is scary as shit
the ai kinda reminds me of the gears of war 1 and 2 ai. in one the ai trys to kill themselves then in 2 now this use to piss me off in 2 most times if you go down but not out they will just sit there until you die but it only happens in the story mode
this comment was for his resident evil video
Here's a nice suggestion: Take that really awesome possibility of multiple endings and being able to kill protagonists, use villains and put some effort next time in that than focus on multiplayer which is practically Gears of Zombies!
Resident Evil Revelations just came out and everyone loved it. It went back to the roots.
The old REs with the classic camera are so unique that they will always hold a place in my heart. But I will always see RE4 as a classic too. It took the series to a new direction (in a good way) and improved the controls and horror element. I played RE 1-3 for the first time a couple months ago and it didn't really do much but made me run away from Nemesis xD
this sums it up perfectly.
One of the best videos you have ever made.
The only thing I found good with RE6 was the idea of having intersecting stories. That was pretty cool. But yeah, I remember it being so hyped when the first trailer came out.....IN JANUARY!!!! Who releases a trailer that early? Seriously? And come October, the game's release, everyone's like "OMGOMGOMGOMG CAN'TWAITCAN'TWAITCAN'TWAIT!!!!................Awwwwww (.____. )"

resident evil 4 was the peak of the series there was no way in hell they could ever top everything else is going to down to the base of the mountain
i have always been a fan of resident evil for the 15 years of my life i played it when i was 5 i loved resident evil and yes i consider myself a die hard fan, i have the books and the games. I personally believe 0-3 were amazing it was original and just had the best replay capabilities to offer in my opinion now 4 did change a lot and so forth but i must say the AI was a disappointment and i truly felt like my heart was just broken after seeing the crap that has been made throughout the years. i have resident evil operation raccoon city and i seriously was like no... they screwed the story and just made something for what it seemed like shits and giggles to me. i couldn't even finish it and this is coming from a die hard resident evil fan i even played the ones for phone apps .___. sad isn't it but i was just disappointed...
Do you know how much you say "okay" ?
RE4's escort mission was anoyying, but it had some decent humour!
With code veronica, you need to use your knife to conserve ammo. The knife can actually be used to kills zombies, unlike the other resident evil games.
Resident Evil R.I.P. 1996-2012
The enemies take way to much damage and gameplay is atrocious 🗑️🚮👎
I was looking fwd to RE ORC but having seen footage on you tube I will wait a long long time before considering buying it. It will have to be £5 or less it looks so bad. How could they release this and expect gamers to like it?

4 was also an action game. the final survival horror one was zero. But i do agree that 2 and 3 are the best. Code veronica and zero were also really cool.
some of the music in the background sounds familiar, they all sound good though... better than the crap getting pushed these days
Rob , very good video , agree on most of what you said. Surprised you didnt mention RE6 having AI co-op gameplay and being fully action oriented . :(
keep up the great work
yes re operation raccoon city sucks, and the number one thing is the fact it messes up the RE2 Story line, resident evil 6 was ok i like how there brought back sherry, thats it
1:30 needs a sparta remix.
The sad thing is that they kind of are. Search for "Book of Memories"
I've heared that they said that from now on they wouldn't listen to the gamer's criticism.
I like RE1 the most, was the first I played on PS1 and the GCN REmake perfected it to me.
I'm from the future too Rob and Raccoon City is good. You know why? Because Umbrella Corps exists
I personally enjoyed the game solely for the fact that it opens another universe were the bad guys actually win. While yes the game sadly wasn't executed the way we all wanted, Wolfpack is one of the most badass teams in the entire Umbrella Corporation.
Fuck that...I hate survival horror.
Yeah I got to the same boss on Resident Evil Code Veronica and quit for the exact same reason.
I have the same issue with Code Veronica. It's my least favorite before 6.
@LeisureSuitGaming2
It is not that terrible. I enjoy seeing all the events that occurred, rent it and the online play actually good.
Yes it is, it is the worst game ever developed. They do not put time and effort into their games. If their wasn't anymore kids playing it, your precious little games fanbase would go plummeting.
Rob, this is Slant 6, the same dev's who had to defend themselves every single day after SOCOM Confrontation was released. This being a game that was worse than Skyrim for game breaking bugs and glitches.
So this don't surprise me one little bit.
You know, I really wanted to like ORC because, to me, the WOLFPACK were the glue that held the game together. I wish that WOLFPACK was part of the RE canon.
dude i had that SAME problem with that Tyrant on Code Veronica xD
RE 1 will always be my favorite, such a classic.
I haven't heard anyone bitch about resident evil 4 . Everyone wanted something new, something other than zombies, and guess what we got something new. However with resident evil 5 the resident evil series got a lot of new fans, but lost some in the process because of the way it was going.
Actually Destructoid gave Deadly Premonition GOTY juxtaposed to IGNorent's 2.5 or something... It's a great game though, if you like Twin Peaks and story.
try to play the game on pro and tell me ammo is not enough
i basically need to kung fu from the start till the end most of the game
I think you can beat that boss in Code Veronica without shooting him lol.
amen brotha. The Last of Us is probably one of if not the only game im really looking forward to and will pay the full price tag for it on day one.
04:21 i love that bionic commando song is a classic..i wont go to far to say that i hate RE orc cs it has he good points,& is a background story of re2&re3..i dint feel like i loved but it stillno bad,but honestly i like RE Revelations alot more..it felt like a true RE game to me..i prefer RE revelation way more than Re orc..btw i love RE code veronica is 1 of most favorite & beloved RE games of all times,you should to get through the whole game is amazing RE experience!!

I hear the next Resident Evil is going to be like Tomb Raider
I think the real reason this game was made is because people kept bitching about how resident evil5 played like resident evil4 and how you couldnt move while shooting and shit like that, so they made a game that didn't play like resident evil4 or 5 or well, hell any of the resident evil games.
i think they wanted to "try stuff out" after seeing that games like L4D are successful. so which next game could satisfy killing zombies? you guessed it..
i rented ratcoon city from block busters and played the first level and took it back
Resident Evil 4 was amazing imo. You were totally alone in a hostile village, it was scary because it's difficult to handle mechanics (you know, you can't move while aiming and such) and you had that Ashley who was useless (people call her a bad AI, I don't think she was that bad).
i don't see where i contridict myself or this is a valid point. i know what you ment, but you didn't tought this trough.
it wasnt the type of game that made it shit, it was how they did it
So this seems like a last second 'let's fuck everything up'
It also seems like a terrible side project to RE6 which from what I have seen looks pretty similar to racoon city.
Anyone can say any game is gonna be a game changer...
i dont think the biggest problem with operation raccoon city is its choice of genre, seeing as it is a spinoff.
the problem is that its made by "slant 6," the people that made "socom confrontation."

Hahaha this guy rants about almost everything! His videos crack me up, they´re awesome
A sadist causes harm to others. A masochist causes harm to himself. So I think you mean "I am not a masochist"
Nier is an amazing game one of my faves! Very underrated also it has one of the best soundtracks i've heard in a game to date.
