I don't think there's a problem - it's the gameplay that counts. So they replace the zombies with something else, big deal - the game will still have the RE feel. |

Well, if it is for anything other than nintendo this makes perfect sense. Nintendo holds the contract for any RE games that tie in with the story line. They can still make games for PS2 or XBOX but they cant have Umbrella corp or that virus or the characters. |

It has to do with something a little more vile. Notice how the people aren't dead...Something is getting to them? There is that giant creature in the water. We saw shadows that morph around.
I'm sorry, but this is going to be way more interesting than the last ones. It means that the T-Virus, or whatever, has mutated. |

IGN: Are there ever zombies in the game?
Kobayashi: "No zombies,"
There, happy?
Anyway, The game looks great. Although there aren't zombies, there are plenty ugly villagers and I think there might be ghosts.(which scare me a helluva lot more than zombies/crimson heads) |

So they're going more along the Silent Hill road with the monsters? |

If a zombie can support their own weight and get up off the ground in previous RE games I'm sure they could throw.  |

there are no zombies in it...... they are villages that seem to be possesed and wanting to kill you by chasing you down and throwing things at you... ( now tell me how can a zombie throw weapons, they cant) so that proves they arent zombies at all... |

Look at it this way, Konami made Castlevania Aria of Sorrow, and you didn't fight Dracula in it like you did in the others. It was publically announced in the game that you won't fight Dracula in it. Now that turned out to be the second best Castlevania game around.
Just because they try something new doesn't mean it is going to suck.
Though I think that Capcom (who I'm not in good terms with at the moment) has a problem with trying something new. Everytime they add something or try something new, they fuck it up. Breath of Fire V, Megaman X6... They aren't on a good streak.
Also on a side note, Leon looks like Squall from Final Fantasy VIII. I don't know what they were thinking, but oh well...
So I'm saying... I don't know what I'm saying... NEVERMIND! |

Personally, I think that this idea is awesome. I mean, I certainly cannot say I am the biggest RE freak around, but I am a fan. And I think that the series needs a change. And RE 4 is delivering more than one of those. Plus, Leon looks VERY badass as opposed to his bishounen look in RE 2. |

GC-exclusive. Also, I think I read in an article that these "villagers" are possessed or something so they're techniqually ARE zombies... but smarter... |

But when it comes down to it, i bet it scares the living shit out of you in the end.
I don't get scared of video games, I grew out of that stage of my life 10 years ago
And yes I do remember Lickers, Sharks, Nemesis, Tyrant, Dogs and all the other enemies the RE series has had but the main enemies we're always zombies I will be rather dissapointed if they make a no show, in RE4.
And uh people what system is RE4 on anyways, I assume PS2 and Gamecube? |

I saw the article on RE4 in Edge, and it actually looks really good. I'm pretty sure Umbrella will show up at some point though. Its good that they're going for something a little different. |

Nowadays, when developers release info about a game that's really different from the rest of the series, I take it with a grain of salt.
Why? Well, remember MGS2? The developers actually modified the cutscenes, replacing characters, to keep Raiden secret for as long as they could. |

Zombies != scariest creatures for a video game. Doom 64, with it's ambient music, Satanic monsters and demonic graphics, scared me more than any RE game ever did. I'm glade RE has moved away from the zombie bit. If you want rehashed Capcom games, stick with MegaMan  |

Almost the same reaction people had when Nintendo showed the first screenshots of Zelda the wind waker.
It's gonna be diffrent, get over it... I don't think you can change the minds of the devolopers. 
Hopefully it will be an good game.  |

"As for CC, if it isn't supposed to be the a FF why use the name Final Fantasy? Why not Crystal Mana? It would make more sense considering the game uses the same system that the other Mana games used."
Because it was Final Fantasy-esque. It had FF like characters, FF spells, FF montsters, etc... Simple. |

Um, RE4 has monster type things in it. Who cares if their nomenclature isn't "zombie"? Apparently you want to play the same game over and over again but set in a different location. No, that sucks. You need innovation in the gaming world.
CC nothing like any other FF games? Uh, GOOD! It's not SUPPOSE to be.
What Capcom is doing is great for both the series and video games in general. You can't crank out the same game day in and day out. You need to change it up and keep it fresh. Capcom gets a huge thumbs up for this.
Your right I do want to play the same game over and over again just diffrent storyline and diffrent locations. I enjoy what the RE series is right now, as you can tell by my list it has yet to make me stop buying the games but then again even if the monsters do change I will still probably buy the game 
As for CC, if it isn't supposed to be the a FF why use the name Final Fantasy? Why not Crystal Mana? It would make more sense considering the game uses the same system that the other Mana games used.
Anyways RE4 may work out or may not I guess only time will tell. I will be sure to try it thats for sure. |

It's not a matter of making it diffrent then the other ones it's just that Resident Evil is supposed to be zombies not this other shit when you change stuff bad things happen, a perfect example is Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, the game is nothing like any other FF and guess what, it sucks.
I'm hoping though that this game will work because I own RE0, RE, RE DC, RE2, RE3, RE Code Veronica so as you can tell I'm a big fan of the series |
