Not as sad as the one where Ian (I think) tried to "play" a PS3 game.

I'll do a swap for Dishonoured if anyone's clocked that and fancies moaning about this (360 for 360).

All done!

Those final stats:

Total time: 26:57 (so a good length then, really)
Emblems found: 38/80 (I wasn't looking that hard then)
Completed: 14% (seems you've got to get gold for each five chapters for each of the 7 characters on all four difficulties for 100%. That means playing it through a whopping 28 times. No thanks.)
Saved by partner: 64 times.
Average time to be rescued: 3:16 mins
Times restored own health: 16 (wow. Really?)
Skill points: ah, who gives a shit. I got Firepower maxed out - 3 measly levels. Critical hit maxed - only 2 levels. Steady hand maxed - again 2 levels. Could I tell the difference? Could I fuck.
Weapons: used all but the ones the other character carried. No special weapons as far as I can tell. No levelling up weapons.
Enemies killed: I'm not adding them all up as they're grouped up into small sub sections (so there's J'avo, J'avo with pistol, J'avo with knife, J'avo with wrist blades etc) but its an obscene amount. Close to or over 3000. Probably over 3000 by the looks of it.

That's a shit load of killing and I'm pretty sure I've seen almost all the game has to offer, like:

Collections: Rubbish story text and ace best toys. Worse still, the text attempts to recreate the old papers found in Resi 1. It just doesn't work outside the game - idiots. Also, pointless.

Cutscenes: Replay cutscenes. No ta.

Dog Tags: erm, customisable dog tags. If you join someone's game you see it for a few seconds. Er, great. Gotta collect em all. Or not.

Agent Hunt: annoy fellow gamers as they try to play it properly! Actually quite fun. You'll also play it once.

The Mercenaries: Still awesome. But now with fewer maps and characters! Thank god, the choice was far too much for me to handle.

Campaign: Ok, after all that moaning, I've enjoyed it. Sort of. Underneath its pretty graphics (and it is very pretty) its bare bones are arthritic. They're solid enough but lack the polish and zest for life that the younger Resi 4 set years ago. It's not scary. It's a shoot em up in a very long corridor. It's not Resi. Well it is, but Resi off the rails. It lacks atmosphere. It lacks any scary looking enemies at all in fact (the mutated flesh-chainsaw man is particularly poor. A man with a brown bag on his head a few years ago? FUCKING TERRIFYING). It lacks danger. It won't let you die. The variety of QTE are rubbish. Sure you might think pressing A or waggling or pressing the trigger at the right time might keep you on your toes... But it doesn't. QTE's are best when they're simple: press A. Or X. Once. That's enough. Waggle stick! Repeatedly press A! Rotate stick! Wait... press x! HAMMER X TO DEATH. Oh do fuck off. But the biggest problem of all is this: the 6 (of Resi 6) is meant to represent a web. THERE ARE NO SPIDERS IN THIS GAME.








Oh it's a metaphor? Oh right.

Anyway, I've been forward to this game since I've been working for Capcom. 10/10.

(Nah, it bloody deserved those 5's. Fun to play but it's an average game. If you've played all the Resi's in particular you'll even want to play it and probably should. it's not a terrible game at all but given the legacy and what should of followed Resi 5 it IS a massive disappointment. They've taken 5 too far and perhaps to its logical conclusion. 4 was heralded as the era and a fantastic reinvention but it's already got stale thanks to a startling lack of imagination and perception of what people want to play these days.

Co-op ruined Resi.

Anyhow, here's a video. Of it.

Where "did" we discuss the Resi Remake?

Well worry no more by not discussing Resident Evil Revelations 2.

And what's the Big Idea for this new version of a game that I've never played? Weekly episodic content, perhaps?

http://www.vg247.com/2014/09/10/residen ... odic-disc/

OH MY GOD it totally was weekly episodic content. Amazing. I've not seen barnstorming money rinsing ideas since erm, the last one that was thrust upon us people who enjoy playing video games (we can't say "gamers" anymore, right? Who knows).

The new control scheme is a revelation (no pun intended). No more tank controls, yay!

COCK !!!

‘Moist barrels of fucks’ !!!

Talking about Cock with Revelations 2's Producer Went Better Than Expected
By Leon Hurley on 06 Feb 2015 at 11:55AM

I recently talked to Michiteru Okabe, Revelations 2's producer, and Matt Walker, a Capcom production manager, about Resident Evil Revelations 2. And, while much of it was pre-approved press messaging stuff, I did get to ask them about the unusual swearing in the game.

You see, Moira, Barry's daughter, distinguishes herself pretty early on with some bizarre and unforgettable swears. At one point, after a monster attacks, she asks "What the cock did I just see?" She also describes the situation of her kidnapping as "a moist barrel of fucks". It's weird but endearing; it made me like the character more.

It's even caused a little controversy, with 'cock' not going down well in the US, although, weirdly, the moist barrel of fucks is a-okay. Sitting down with Okabe and Walker I asked them more about it. They told me that the bizarre use of language is, in part, a deliberate attempt to tap into the series' history of corny/weird/stand out dialogue.

Here's the conversation as it happened, because trying to editorialise it destroys the creeping realisation that you're about to have a conversation with another man about 'cock being taken out'.

Leon - When we first saw [Revelations 2] Moria had some interesting swear words? Has it been changed? I thought it added character. ‘Moist barrels of fucks’ is my new favourite swear.

Matt - Really? Leon, I love you!

[Actual hugging.]

Matt - It’s part of the story. We do have to be careful. The fact of the matter is that, around the world, certain words are okay and certain words are less okay, right? This is the conversation we had at the bar last night.

Leon - Is the cock...?

[Laughing]

Matt - Oh, yes. Please, tell me more about cock!

[Laughing. Blushing. Sudden really intense examination of the ceiling's tiling.]

Leon - That was more offensive in America than anywhere else, than any of the other words?

Matt - Exactly, I'm from the States, right? So I can understand when somebody says they’re uncomfortable with certain words. Although, I use a really bad words all the time so I'm not probably not the right person to make this decision. What happens is, the way she speaks is very intentional. You’re going to find out, there’s a specific reason that she speaks the way she does.

Leon - So, regional variations aside they haven’t taken some of the more colourful stuff out?

Capcom PR - ‘Moist barrels’ is still in, isn't it?

Matt - ‘Moist barrels’ is still in there. I worked with the scenario writer, this guy called Dai Sato, he wrote the scenario for Revelations 1 and for this one. This time we did a new thing, we said.’what if we write the dialogue in English?’ Usually, we write the dialogue and the scenario in Japanese and then we localise into another language. Depending on how good your localization is that can come off smoothly, and it can come off less smoothly. What we said was, we know we have all those fans that love all those lines, love ‘master of unlocking’ or ‘you were almost a Jill Sandwich’. So we were like, we want to take that and make a wink and nod to people, so we actually wrote the dialogue in English this time. I remember playing through episode one for the first time after we’d got the first bit of voice actor dialogue in the game and hearing ‘What in the moist barrel of fucks?’ The guy that wrote the dialogue sits a couple of seats away from me, and I got up and went over there and shook his hand. I’m like 'this is brilliant.'
