| One of the many reasons why, after owning an Xbox 360 since the time they came out, I got rid of it about 2 months ago, and picked up a PS3. :/ Getting tired of Microsoft, and most games are released on both consoles anyways. |

| Personally, I'm just gonna get whatever system the next RE come out on (if exclusive). That said, there is this saying about deciding between two things. "Get Both."
Now, about Microsoft Points. I don't mind them... No different than going and buying an expansion disc or the new version of the game with the extra content.... actually cheaper in most cases. |

If the story is going to be spectacular I might do the same, although I wasnt that impressed with RE 5 as I expected it to be. Good story... Thats what makes a good game. I guess the good old games wont come around. As you can see I changed my sig. Bioware is great example of what games should look like. It aint about graphics. Come to think of it... Id like to see future Resis based on RPG system or just to see small RPG elements in game, like the parts where you have to choose to proceed with the mission or like, for example go save teammate from zombie attack and stuff like that. It would be awesome. And of course it might affect your ending. That would be great thing IMHO. Like imagine that you are just random bad-ass going to do your mission and you're just thinking of it or you are some sort of good guy, help and work with others and it affects your ending in way that you might live or die. So like you save everybody through the game and they save you in the end. Basic survival story. Nobody is going to last alone. Every man on his own
Yeah a bit off-topic now  |

Oh how I long for a zombie based MMO. However, personally, I don't think RE should go that way, I think it would take away from the story of the series (which is why i love it in the first place.) Then again, they have deviated from the original storyline so much anyway....
A zombie/survivalist MMO would have great potential, I just don't see RE characters being applicable to that type game. |

I don't think it should go that way either...maybe something MMO could be cool, but in Raccoon...perhaps like Outbreak in some ways.
I doubt RE has deviated too much from it's original storyline, I mean it seems like it is going back to some of it's rivalries from the very beginning, Chris, Wesker, Jill, etc. Not to mention RE4 showing more of the Organization trying to get ahold of various samples, G, T-Veronica, Las Plagas, etc. _________________ How much liquour could a licker lick if a licker could lick liquor?
