Are you kidding Madmel? The Ps2 version had one new weapon, and Separate Ways. The difference in visuals was BARELY noticable, and the progressive scan, and widescreen support easily made it surpass the GameCube version.
The Wii version IS the Ps2 version with a visual upgrade, but whoop, it was the best game of 2005, let it be already.

New weapon was shit. Why not have a new hat as well?
The difference in visuals was noticeable to me, having played both many times.
Jill is shit.

Have I not launched your "PS2 version is better." argument into such an orbit that you were telling me to commit suicide?
"The PS2 version had one new weapon!". Says it all really.
The GC version was better where it mattered. The PS2 had superficial additions that did nothing. Ways is your only argument, and that's not even part of the main game. The main game isn't better because Capcom gave PS2 owners an additional game. The main game isn't better than the GC version. It looks worse, the torch is inconsequential, the new weapon isn't even part of the first play through.
So if your argument is "The PS2 PACKAGE is better because it has a sub-game." then you have a point. Don't sit there claiming that a dulled down version of a better game is any better, though. That's just nonsense.
Main game Vs Main game, Cube wins. It looks better, it was made for that console. It had to be dulled for the PS2. How noticeable it was comes down to either naivety or bad sight, because it was obviously lesser to the Cube graphically. Fact. No "But it was barely...", no. It was factually lesser. I'm not a graphics-hound, but if we're discussing such anal tech specs as progressive scan, which have NO impact on the actual game itself, then I'll mention everything.
So as little as the differences are, Cube's main game is the original and best.
If you prefer the PS2 package because it had an extra game, fine. It doesn't make the main game better. The main game having extra things might make you PREFER it, but it didn't enhance the game in any way that would make it a better game, just a more enjoyable one to you. The torch didn't have an effect or make the story better, neither did the Las Plagas Removal Ray.
So you're about making excuses, only to turn around and accuse anyone who proves you wrong of being fanboys.

Yes, because this forum is Trump Tower of KMC based on the fact that you dwell here, right? Laughable. Anyway, why are you now begging to get back on topic? You were happy to debate RE4 before I arrived.
Can you stop being silly and reply civilly? Is it really that hard? If you dislike having your debates shredded, formulate better ones. I'm not here to argue, just discuss.

This on rails BS is completely stupid. With it, it fails to even be RE and becomes an arcade shooter. Stupid. Pointless. Who cares? Not me. I wont be getting this game if it turns out like this. Plus I don't want a retelling of the story, I know the story. Add to the existing one, don't just retell it and then throw it on rails, wtf are they thinking? Might as well just call it 'House of the Dead Wii' and be done with it, at least it'd still be true to what it is.
Yeah, and now there's rumors of two modes, the main game being this on-rails garbage, and the second mode being a scenario post-CV, Pre-4 with regular gameplay. I hope so, but I doubt it, it looks like every RE this generation is going in the toilet.
I sure hope RE2 is remade for the DS now, so I have SOMETHING to look forward to RE wise.
I could careless about multi player, I never played it, and they didn't even make it Wi-Fi, so that's Nintendo's fault. Give me my 3/4 great scenarios, the sub-par Claire A (IMO), Hunk's Game, Tofu's, and Extreme battle. That will be plenty for me, new costumes and Hard mode from the computer. I'd pay $35.
it wasnt even about wi-fi.. if I wanted to play with my friend shaped like a star (because they're to lazy to learn some basic networking), I would have left the game on the shelf lol
in my opinion.. DS's shining area is multiplayer... whether it be local or wifi
no doubt the games single player was fine.. but IMO the real deal would be some RE Co-op... and not that outbreak crap

CRIMSON HEADS were introduced in the REmake in 02'. Running Zombies are old news.
And Chris is in it, because he is overrated, and Capcom somehow thinks he deserves a third game. Chris is a chore to play as in the first, Rebecca should of been the second character considering she DID half of the things he had to do. Code:Veronica is a bad game, the worst in the series next to the Survivor series, and Chris didn't help it because he sucks.
RE5 consists of the recycled gameplay from 4, when Capcom promised each game would have UNIQUE gameplay. They sure dropped the ball with Umbrella Chronicles that's for sure, pathetic on rail shooting. I don't care about hallucinations, or going to the stupidass desert.
I sure hope Capcom changes all of the garbage they showed of 5 so far.

Well, I have Mario Kart and that's enough for me multiplayer wise, and I never bought Metroid Prime:Hunters because from what I saw it looked like they put more into the multiplayer than the single player. So, I'd much rather have the perfect single player recreated, with Hard mode from DC/PC included, rather than a crappy single player and good multiplayer.

I have to agree with you there. I originally bought Hunters because I'm a Metroid nut, the multiplayer thing was just an interesting bonus. I didn't even touch multiplayer after a week, because it just became inundated with people using hacks and glitches to make sure they didn't lose.
I much prefer single player on pretty much any game for the DS.
Let's not overlook the fact that Chris Redfield is the main character in Resident Evil. Jill is just an additional option, she's even less of the story (As it stands.) than anyone else. The only game she got besides the original was 3, and that didn't add to the story, it just said "This was happening at the same time.". It didn't reveal any crucial plots or anything. Infact, half of it happened during 2, in which major plot events WERE happening, which happened to involve a member of the Redfield family. Not a member of S.T.A.R.S, not some supporting medic, not some escaped convict.
The only reason Jill will return is if they make a part for her, because as it stands she isn't necessary. She was just part of S.T.A.R.S, it could have easily been Barry in her place, or in Rebecca's place. Chris was given more because he is the main character. This is proven by the fact that the man has a relative in the series, also a main character. Capcom think he deserves another game because, and you may not know this, they created RE and everything surrounding it and inside of it. They decide who is and who isn't worth it.
Wesker is the main villain and I don't know about you, but I haven't seen anybody else in vicious feuds with him besides Chris.
They say Chris is a main character, so therefore he is.
Chris is a chore to play as? This is why Resident Evil isn't for most people. His route is harder and isn't filled with shortcuts. Jill was the "Easy" option and Chris was the harder difficulty, it's not Capcom's fault you need an easier option (Which is precisely what people are implying, before anyone gets all upset.). It's called Survival Horror for a reason, it's not meant to be a comfortable, easy experience. This isn't Devil May Cry. Hence why most of the fun is gone after 5 minutes if you use any kind of infinite weapon. Chris's controls are exactly the same as anyone else's, so I can only conclude it was too hard.
If you don't like him, fine, but to deny his place is silly. Capcom make the rules, they made Chris the main character. Don't go around saying "Rebecca should have been, Billy should have been.", because they aren't. Chris is.
Furthermore, people want to say how overrated Chris is, then go and say "Billy rules!", or "Rebecca rules!". Billy was in it for one game and revealed next to nothing about his character or involvement, we may never even see him again, as for Rebecca, she's just a simple recurring character.
People are essentially saying "WHY NOT PUT *Another RE character* in?!" just because they dislike Chris. That's not how it works. You wouldn't say "Why not have Jubilee? Why Professor X?!" just because you happened to be a fan of a supporting character.
So basically, neither of these people (Rebecca or Billy.) have any long-standing, irreplaceable parts in this game. Rebecca's role in Zero or 1 could have been played by any sprite, same with Jill, same with Billy. They weren't "main" characters in terms of the grander RE storyline, whereas Chris's role was made for Chris, hence why there's a character in two other games called Claire Redfield. Not Claire Coen, Claire Chambers or Claire Valentine.
