    The more I hear about this the more I think this version is going to shit all over that disappointment that was standard RE5.

    It's not often that added stuff far surpasses the original game but RE5GE sounds like it will do JUST that.

      It's not exactly like it has a high standard to surpass, to be fair

      Have they added Hunk yet?

    I still haven't completed this game. I got so tired of the whole none scary vibe it was giving me, the almost endless hordes of enemies was just a pain towards the middle I just couldn't be bothered with it.

    The feeling of monotonous dread when you see like twenty infected, you finish them off and the game is like.

    "Well done, here's three Dr Salvadors to face to get rid of all your ammo just in time for the next room which has thirty infected and four Dr Salvadors in."

    The cheap tactics just got on my nerves.

      The game's totally worth completing, if only for the ridiculous final boss battles and being able to smack Wesker in the face with a missile.

      You just gotta struggle through alot of random crap to get there D-:

          Haha, you got me there. I actually loved RE5.

          Which is kinda weird, considering I have so many complaints about it. I guess seeing Chris, Jill and Wesker again softened me up.

          THIS! A Chris, Jill, Barry, Rebecca STARS team would be awesome!

      Well, the way you said 'It's not often that added stuff far surpasses the original game but RE5GE sounds like it will do JUST that.' made it sound like you were surprised by the fact, is all

    I'd be bloody surprised at anything coming out from Capcom that had the stamp of quality on it. Maybe that's what Gamesta was getting at.

      Not exactly but I guess with how disappointed I was in RE5 I didn't expect add on stuff to be so damn good.


      RE5GE is giving us back some of what made the older games so great.

      While RE4 wasn't scary at all either, the dark and gothic style made it more of a RE than 5 did.


      That and it had better stuff like the merchant and I loved finding all these treasures and being able to mix them together to get more money.It was fun picking stuff up and thinking "oh this must go with that item I picked up earlier" and disappointing when you would pick something up and see that it went with something you already sold.

      I'm glad I wasn't the only one who got bored of the hoardes of Majini. Gawd, by the time I'd finished the Indiana Jones-esque temple (who's genius idea was it for that location?!) I wanted to smack whoever's idea it was to shove so many of them into the game.

      I was so glad when the Lickers showed up. So frickin' glad.

        But the lickers sucked. I mean they really sucked.

        And also 20 enemies? What game are you playing? 20 enemies where in the superior RE5 Beta, this game barely handles more than 8 at a time =/

        Mercenaries excluded.

    Now all we need is Claire and Hunk and shirtless Wesker and it'd be perfect.

      They add Claire in and I'll be getting this within a heartbeat.

        But...but Jill stars is the only surviving stars member left!
        That's bullcrap, if Barry and Rebbecca are in why can't jill be in.

        And Razz, the last thing we need is Wesker competing against Chris in "sexiest RE character" even though billy clearly wins

      Technically. Rebecca's new look is based off her.
