sounds more like a fanboy case to me..........still at least you seem to be interested in decent games like Wanda and Colossus...........

To me it does, because that's how I play pretty much all the games lately.Dr_Cogent said:
There really is no reason not to use HDL in my opinion. HDDs are cheap, and there's no modding involved.
I've already said that I'm going to finally get the Cube if this game turns out to be crappy on PS2, but I doubt loading will be a problem.
It'd be a smart move since all the work is pretty much done, they could probably port the extras in a week or two and nab an extra 300-500k worldwide with little effort. Personally I think they should port it to Xbox/PC as well, RE4 should be pushed as hard as possible to as many bases as possible. It really is Capcom's most important title this generation imo, even if it can't match up to DMC1 or Onimusha 1/2 in sales.CVXFREAK said:

Well, he asked, so I answered.Bluemercury said:
I only have a PS2 and PSP, but not really because I would objectively consider myself a blind sony fanboy, but because I don't have time for 2 or 3 home systems and multiple portable systems. I need the best bang for my buck, so PS2 it is. I was never really interested in GBA/SP/DS because I want this-gen graphics. I played sprite-based 2D adventure games when I was a kid. They aren't that interesting to me anymore. Now, a portable 3D GTA? Giddy up.

Just throwing this out there:
Mercenaries levels + assignment ada = 5 levels
The other two quotes sound like blurb of the back of the existing GC box.
If it's 5 seperate Ada levels then I'm wrong, but this just reads very suspiciously to me. Like instead of doing anything really exclusive, things are unlocked from the start.

FLAWLESS VICTOLY!
It says exclusive to PS2 version but you suspect it's the GC content unlocked? That seems a tad unlikely. I'm not saying it will be worthwhile content, but you guys are stretching things now.

It just read wierd to me.. I probably am thinking too much along lines conspiratorial...
true widescreen is great though. Anyone who hasn't bought this game already is a fucking douchebag who'd better buy it on one or the other. Or else...well... nothing actually.

To be fair its not like the Resident Evil game is coming to the DS and PSP with people choosing the DS version over the PSP version. With RE4 you have people not only taking the inferior graphics but there willing to wait 9 months to play it. I mean if the DS Resident Evil was coming to the PSP I wouldn't expect ANYBODY to pick it up.
Kinda disappointed that all the extras don't even sound like anything extra. I mean I'd pick this baby up if it had new levels and bosses but it doesn't. Hopefully they will release this version with better graphics and some actual new content for the Xbox because I'd shell out another $50 to get that.

Solid said:this game have a nasty habit of bringing the worst out of fanboys
I always find it funny that Nintendo fans keep spouting their graphics don't manner mantra when it comes to talking about DS games and PSP games but when it comes to this RE4 on PS2 graphics suddenly matter.

you cube owners who already own it going to seriously buy it again? It was a great great game, but was it that great?
You people must be filthy rich buying a game twice.

RE4 is an all-time favorite and I ponied up full price for the GC version, so I'll likely be picking up the PS2 version if the new content is worthwhile. But only when it hits $20 or less and when enough time has passed to hear any news or not of any possible Xbox version.
As a former Gamecube owner who bought a GC just for RE4 there wasn't anything compelling me to keep the system after I beat the game.
Bought all my GC stuff for 240. Sold it off for 220. You don't have to be rich. Just smart! It'll be worth it to play this game again in true widescreen mode! Extras are icing on the cake!

That graphics do matter? Well, yea I would agree with that. Despite what the holier than thou people want to act on forums of course graphics matter. If not we would all still be playing nintendo's and genesis. You do have extremes on both ends as well, and those are the funniest ones (especially the ones donating their money too Nintendo through paypal). For instance I could care less how beautiful most FPS are turning out, the gameplay is just getting really old too me. On the flip side really bad graphics (see Black and White DS) can be a turn off.
I also agree with the sentiment of people should have, and still should, just get the RE4 Gamecube version. The system is cheap enough and their are enough good games on the system to warrant a purchase. Especially if you are any sort of RE fan. After RE 2 the series kind of died for me but RE4 was just jaw dropping good in every way.

Hmm, very tempting, I adored RE4 so some extras would be nice. I can't even begin to imagine trying to aim with the same accuracy with the Dual Shock stick though so i'll probabily have to pass

I may get it for the extra Ada missions.
Probably will wait for a 20$ tag, though.

The director isn't making the PS2 version. He quit (sort of). RE4-PS2 is more of a "Publisher's Rewrite".Guy LeDouche said:
The real RE4 Director's Cut is "Mikami's Head Off", and the director already promised that to GameCube owners, except that it seems he's never going to get around to making it. :lol
Graphics do matter (I'd never say they don't) but there is far more to games than how they look. If the PS2 version plays at a steady framerate, and doesn't look too bad in motion then I'm sure it will be very playable
No, they say that graphics matter for PSP vs DS, but they don't matter for the home consoles (ie RE4 GC vs PS2)
I mean that some people (not saying who) go on and on about graphics when they're trolling every topic about the DS. But when it comes to RE4 they're willing to play a graphically inferior game just because it's not on the GC
Hell, I don't care what people think...if they think graphics are all that matters then that's their choice. If they want to restrict themselves to inferior versions of games because they hate Nintendo then that's their choice as well.
I'm sure I'll get called a fanboy for this but I can assure you I'm not. Nintendo, Sony and MS fanboys all piss me off equally. I'm well past the stage where I care about fanboys and pathetic fanboy arguments

I think the RE4 on the PS2 is a little bit more then just people hating Nintendo, though yes their are fanboys everywhere so there may be a few. Alot of people only have money for one console and from obvious sales numbers alot chose the PS2. And for those people thats fine, they will get their version of RE4. For those that didn't play it on Gamecube but could have and didn't get a Gamecube because they hate Nintendo for whatever reasons, then yea thats stupid.
