"There he goes over there!"
- Stops, aims.. Target has moved behind a building. - Comes out of aiming stance and runs to building - close combat! - switches to inventory, selects knife, back to game - Slashes!... Too far away - Comes out of slash stance, edges closer, Slashes again!... Misses - Gets shot in the head by the other enemy player gonna be lame i recon. Like a sucker, I'll pay for it though.. |

Benno: No. You're paying or stuff that IS in the retail version.

Aaaah! Another comments page full to the brim with the same old pent up frustration that has littered every other page on the subject since this news broke several weeks ago.
I'm thinking 150-200 more comments to go yet, can't wait!! (and yes, i know none of the above makes it any better that Capcom are doing this) But let's be honest...most of you complaining were probably wise enough to shop around and pick this up for under the RRP, so another £4 will still bring you in under the RRP anyway. SUCK IT UP. On the topic of the actual content and what's within it though, none of the unlockable characters are new, they're the same people you've played with in the Mercenaries mode.

First time I've heard of this. But then I always did think the Resident Evil games were one of the most overhyped under average series of games ever made.
So now they want players to pay for what is standard in other games. I'm sure there will be plenty of gullible idiots out there who will think paying extra for this is like a second birthday. It will be popular for 4 weeks and then it will be difficult to find other players. I can't see this being a download, just something already on the disc you unlock. Sad!

So it's clear from the lack of interest in this article AND the number of negative comments versus one or two positive that the few people who bother to pay for what is essentially a patch will find that there is actually not one person online for them to play their new versus mode against.
The same thing happened to me with AO2. I was one of the few who loved the game. Lapped up the new DLC for it and managed to only ever play the new stuff twice online. Every other time it failed to find a game. Money well spent. NOT. |

Wow, it would be utter crap. Stop, start, shoot, miss, arrgghh, run, swivel, aim, shoot, miss, yawn.
Anyone tried going through the game as Sheva yet and noticed the Chris AI is even worse? Gets in the way constantly, never take his eyes off her tits, even when running forward, and just generally is a pain in the ass. I though no AI could have been worse than the Sheva routines, but well done Capcom for out doing yourselves. |

Yes. It's definitely clear when you take one page on the internet and compare it to how many million copies it's sold. *slow clap* |

"Boring, Where is Resi 5's Assignment Ada? or Seperate Ways?"
Agreed with everything there. Although for the final third of the game it just felt like Capcom wanted to just push the game out of the door, so i won't be holding my breathe for them to give us something like that. Maybe we'll get some map packs for Mercs and Versus down the line...like Konami have done with Metal Gear Online, let us play some older locals from the series, the mansion, Raccoon City, places like that!!

The idea that Capcom would go out of their way to write separate AI routines for Chris and Sheva is delightful and nutty. I've been through the game several times as both characters now and there is no functional difference between the two partners. |

Pay for more modes? Hell, after one playthrough I can't even be bothered touching the retail game again, totally uninspiring game, no wonder Capcom jumped in so quickly with "it's the last one!"! Still at least this time I actually finished it unlike 4 (switched to amateur at the last chapter tho, couldn't be arsed with it) .
I'm glad RE5 is out of the way tho I can go back and finish my replays Remake/Dir Cut/CV games now, and I plan to pick up a VERY cheap Outbreak I saw today. Playing the turd that is 5 has urged me to purge it from memory by playing as much Resident Evil as poss! |

How will this work? if people have upgraded weapons etc can they be used? if so I won't bother as a lot of people will have fully upgraded weapons and I can't be arsed to upgrade the ones i've got.

Cheers hobo, might download it then, seeing as it's a few quid, although I agree with others that it should of been included with the game.

It does sound a bit retarded given the shooting mechanics. But on the other hand this could encourage some forward thinking. Stealth, stalking and the use of traps (dangerous objects waiting to be shot)...
So it could be good after all. There must be SOME reason why they thought it was a wotrhy addition despite the obvious flaws. |

Capcom is competing for worst DLC policy trophy. Making people pay for shitty SFIV costumes and some RE5 versus mode which all should be alreaady part of the retail games...
Competition for the worst DLC policy trophy will be tough but Capcom surely has some assets out there, and did make a very good start for 2009. |

I just finished playing thorugh on the hardest setting last night - ALL ON MY OWN!!!
Well, I had to get human help to take down Jill, but the rest was done solo. Mucho Hardo. So yeah, get some better players to review your games EG, instead of average Joes that dismiss it as a single player experience |

Jill is actually pretty easy on professional. Use the grenade launcher with nitrogen grenades and she is stunned long enough to grab her. Just rinse and repeat and she is a doddle with AI or a human friend.
I really enjoyed the game all in. Mercenaries was awesome too, especially going for the SS rank on each map. |

God, I feel so stupid. The DLC is absolutly disgusting, the sad thing is Capcom won't feel ashamed of themselves at all. The gameplay just doesn't lend itself to online 'deathmatch'. Avoid.
