When did Ada get longer hair? °__°

I haven't played much or finished RE5, so..perhaps I missed something...?

I can't find it in me to support and like this game, but it makes me happy to see the characters.

Nah, she's always had the same length of hair across her few appearances. Only thing that changes is what dress she decides to wear, before she leaves the house to go do backflips and flirt with Leon.

I don't think Chris and Wesker will ever star in this. For starters, the selection is made up of characters specifically involved during the Raccoon City Outbreak during RE2/RE3. And CAPCOM have been holding off the Chris/Leon pairing for a long while now; they even omitted Leon from Mercenaries 3D, which, of all games, you'd think would star Leon since half of the maps are from RE4, and it of course even featured Krauser...Krauser. Essentially Leon's ''Wesker'', and someone who's pretty much solely connected to Leon only. If they weren't going to feature Leon in there just because Chris was in there, too, I'm pretty sure it'll be the same here and they're instead saving the upcoming duet for something a little bigger than a spin-off title. RE6 maybe...

So judging from this video the two character personalities for Resident Evil characters seems to be 'cocky' or 'professional'.

HA! For a second there I was excited and confused. I thought they dropped the "kill Leon" story mode (I don't know much about this game, cause when I heard an objective was to hunt him down instead of playing as him I lost all interest) and replaced it with something I, as a RE fan, could get behind. Instead it's just a multiplayer mode with a Jill imposter. I got pretty happy at the idea of Ada as a playable character too. Oh well. I will continue to not care about this game.

None of the characters look quite right. Leon especially looks weird.

If I were a Resident Evil fan, I might be interested. Very slightly interested.

Holy shit, this looks so bad.

It looked bad the moment Slant Sux--er--Six came into the picture. Also, OH MY GOD WHAT THE FUCK @ Jill and Carlos' faces. More proof Slant Sux has no art department.

Man. I really hope some polishing goes into the character models before this goes out, they all look a little... off. Carlos and Jill in particular, but everyone's looking a bit... hm.

If this was the next numbered title, I'd be right next to you up in arms (and flabbergasted, having it set in Raccoon City again, but that's beside the point). But this is just a spin-off, and one that isn't even apart of franchise canon, either.

It's just like how there's an RTS Halo game, or a FPS Command & Conquer game out there, too. Nothing wrong with a little experimentation within the margins. The real problem here is that it simply doesn't look that great of a shooter... But they know that, hence why they're exploiting on people's nostalgia for all of these classic characters and locals, and are hoping it's enough to sway people into purchasing it.

And far as I'm concerned, it totally works. @_@ Preordered and Paid for because goddamn it, I GET TO PLAY AS NICHOLAI GINOVAEF IN RACCOON CITY AGAIN WOOOOO.

This is not a Resident Evil game. Just like how DmC is not a Devil May Cry game. =/
