is it playable if you don't know japanese?

 

[WK416]

YEEEASss!

Quick! Everyone who likes this game buy it (or wait for the US release) so Capcom will make more for DS! (they're basing it on customer interest)

By the way. Did anyone pick up the Limited Edition pack? The one that comes with the S.T.A.R.S. DS case?
I hope the R button on my DS doesn't get worse when the US version comes out. That would suck...

Edit: All Biohazard games are playable with no knowledge of Japanese. It just takes some trial and error in the puzzles (or a helpful guide) and you don't miss much of the story since the voice acting is all English.

 

[tshu]

Hm, didn't know it was coming out so soon. I might try it out.

Now i remember why i didn´t like the RE series. Horrible control, bad voiceacting and a terrible manuscript. Why, Oh, Why coulndn´t Capcom impent better controller in the Rebirth mode. The purists will play the original anyway.

I remember seeing my friend play the original game. It looked horribly clunky so I didn't play Resident Evil.... until RE4 came about and I loved it.

 

[Hadrian]

Only Res games I could play were the 3rd one (on PC), Code:Veronica (mainly for the story and it was the DC game I had!) and of course the amazing 4th one, hope Capcom dont mess up Resi 5 and also bring it to Revolution.

 

[Reserver X]

Sweet, i can wait to get this. Resident Evil is one of my favorite games.

"they're basing it on customer interest"

I also didn't expect this to hit so soon. Any more impressions from those who've played it?

RE games are best played in the dark, so it seems a little strange to see it as a portable game. RE-make on the Cube sure kicked ass.

 

[ConraDargo]

My impression: not to shabby, pretty amusing actually - especially the poor voice acting

And I have now confirmed that co-op is in, as is a competitive multiplayer mode (they're both "get out of the mansion alive").

 

[WeaponXxX]

How do the graphics compare to the N64 version?

 

[brassica]

N64 version was the sequel, Resident Evil 2, not that one.
But i think you can compare it to the PSOne version.

Ok, the controls in this game are REALLY bugging me. Do ALL RE games have such bad controls? This is the first time I've played a RE game

The voice acting is horrible too. I've never seen such bad voice acting. Ever. Their intonations and such are exactly the same everytime they say the same word. Hearing them saying "What is this?" in the same drag everytime is really annoying.

Btw, does this game freeze up for anyone else when you die? Whenever I die, the game just freezes.

Oh yeah, how do you save in this game?

 

[Westside]

RE games does have controls to get use to... RE4 does have amazing controls tough.

 

[rkenshin]

Uh.. RE4 has the same tank controls as the rest of the series.. It's just better to aim, that's pretty much it..

To save, you need ink ribbons items and save in a room with a typewriter.

 

[Westside]

...I played the RE4 ps2 version and it was more like max payne type of control with good aiming... I remember RE2 having awful camera angles from top while you're controlling character from almost a bird's eye POV.

 

[Scorpin200]

Hey you beat me to my question, cause i was happy to see the game booted up after the problem with that lost magic game. I realised that the game had a bug right after i died, cause it never went back to the title screen when i was dead. I like the game though i have no problems with it other than the crash whenever you die, but for some reason the game seems harder that i remember since they went to the trouble of putting in more things to fight.

I tried the game out and I must agree the controls are horrible! Very flakey indeed. And the voice acting.........

I'd be laughing if I didn't think they were trying to be serious. You can certainly tell this is a dated game and to say the least it's no longer on my flashcart.

 

[skywarp]

The controls in an RE game are supposed to be slow, it makes you feel more helpless. What do you want, FPS controls, or some standard third-person controls? Than you'd just have a generic game, and it wouldn't be scary, and more importantly, it wouldn't be Resident Evil.

The voice acting was incredibly bad in the first game thou, I'm suprised they didn't redo it. There's still a good chance they'll change it for the US version thou.

 

[rkenshin]

They aren't going to change the voice acting, Capcom already stated that they would keep things to the original instead of using the voice tracks from REmake
