I just felt the whole serie's hope die with that one, I mean after seeing the fight with jill & chris vs wesker, I was like holy s*** I hope we dont ever have to find him, then you play against him and he walks slower than an old lady shopping at walmart with a walker. I was more expecting a final epic battle in another game with more people or something, with the way wesker was moving like neo/goku

Spoiler:
I know what you mean, when he's with Jill and the first time you fight him it's like holy shit, this is awesome, then when you come to the end of the game, and he merges with the Uraboros you think OH SHI- this is going to be amazing, then it turns out his greatest attack is to walk real slow and slice the ground as if theirs so imaginary guy standing their, really ruins the whole ending experience.

As for him walking like Neo I guess he kinda fills that category to a T considering he has basically become Neo from the Matrix now.

Yeah I just read your post on that, how are you finding it personally?

Excruciating... some of the achievement are much easier to do with the help of someone than alone.... hopefully I'll renew the account next month

Ahh Capcom your greed, does it know no bounds?

don't you just hate when they charge you for in-game content that should have been in the retail package to begin with?... I can understand charging for add-on content developed after the game launches, but strip the game of something just to sell it at the same time the game hits... that's low...

To ask people who own the game, I've seen some achievements and some of them involve eggs, what exactly are eggs and what do they do?

I know their is an achievement for killing a Majini with a rotten one?

they're just what they sound like... eggs... there are levels in which you'll find chickens, if you mess around with them, you'll find they lay eggs in their nests.. there are 4 types of eggs, I think the hardest one to find it's the gold egg... mostly brown chicken lay those

I think the rotten egg you find once you'd defeat a majini on level 5 or around that (he drops it). To kill him with it, you first need to weaken him and then just throw the egg on his face

I think you can get the achievement for having all 4 eggs if someone you're playing online with already has them, he just needs to give them to you as any other weapon or healing item, and that's it

Sheva doesn't let me get the "deflect an arrow with your knife" achievement, she always kills the majini before he gets a chance to shoot me 😐

and damn it, the dogs are real beasts, even on easy it takes a lot of bullets to put them down

Yeah I agree, it's just greed, that mode obviously should have been in with the game when it was shipped, it's sad to think this will be a common theme within the industry for many years to come.

I also heard from Reviews it's a game designed for Co-Op more then anything else, but I was glad to hear for the most part Sheva AI is bearable.

Ahh cool, thanks for the info, when I was looking at the list I was surprised to see Egg based achievements as well as killing a Majini with one, seems kinda random on paper.

I imaged that the Knife achievement would be tricky, also is their any special area you need to hit the dogs, or are they just durable enemies?

It's so annoying that there's no dodge button when a maniac swings his chainsaw around. Sheva keeps going right behind me and when I see an enemy in front, she shoots but not at the enemy but me. She's waisting friggin ammo. Sometimes I wish I can leave her dead but when she dies, game over. She annoys me so much I wish I fought fear alone.

But aside from all that, the game is friggin sweet. Even though our old friend the T-Virus isn't around, Las Plagas sure is an awesome enemy.

Dunno about the dogs, I even shot them in their faces with the shotgun, and still they get up... I don't know if there's a time-reaction button attack with them either, they get up pretty fast before I get the chance to get near them to see the X button popping up

but you can still unload any weapon on them as easily. There are plenty of bullets laying around

Did you just say "I wish I fought fear alone." Haha last I checked RES 5 was an action game over a horror game, also the enemies aren't Las Plagas, they are Uraboros.

Ahh I guess you just have to use the shoot until they're dead formula, I heard about the ammo stock in this game, as I said above it's become an action game over an horror game now.

I only said "I wish I fought fear alone" because at the back of the cover of the game it said "You don't have to fight fear alone" so shove it.

I agree, it's more of an action game but there are some things that can put a scare in you.

They look like Las Plagas to me.

1) No need to be aggressive, I was mealy stating a fact so stfu and learn some manners and civility.
2) I imagine it's like Dead Space then, I would hardly call that horror the most you get from that are the odd jumps now and then, but it's a long shot to call RES 5 "survival horror"
3) Well they're Uraboros but you'll find out more about it when you actually buy/play the game then again I guess you just watched all this on youtube.

1) As if you're civil.
2) It has some horror in it okay?
3) I bought the game yesterday so shut it.

1) such a witty comeback, that was amazing, totally pwned me their dude. 🙄 Oh and yes, yes I am, to those who deserve it.
2) I liked Dead Space, I really liked it, still doesn't change the fact it's not scary.
3) Of course you did, last I checked the game wasn't for 12 year olds and unless you're parents don't really care about you, I doubt they brought it for you.

1) Your comeback there sucks.
2) I ain't trying to argue if the game is horror or not so drop it.
3) Do you like making an ass of yourself online?

Just got this game, about to play it.

haermm

Spoiler:
I broke into tears after seeing that thinking in the series you would have to fight him someday then the ending comes....... worst boss fight ever, i had more trouble on pong, seriously.

also is it just me or does wesker look like a badass version of Rick Astley ermm

So far I think the game is outstanding. Personally I don't get the complaints about how it's no longer horror, it's no less scary or creepy than the other games, though the enemies are definitely more intimidating, which does obviously make them more frightening in a way.

I'm greatly enjoying what I've seen as well. I've only made it to the Docks, but the Uroboros are proving themselves to be Las Plagas' nastier cousin. I approve.

The only thing I miss is Leon's unnecessary but defining 90s-style badassery. Chris is seeming the generic manly-man.

Man, I aint played RE in a long time. Never thought I'd see RE like this. This is the shit, I picked the right time to get a 360.

You just managed to sum up Chris in two words effectively for about every game he's been in.

Alright. I give up. How the hell do I kill

Spoiler:
Wesker in the final volcano fight?

You have to shoot the glowing bulbs, and then get close for a quick time event to defeat him.

Aha. I'll try that. Thanx.
