      It's the reason I bought my 3DS, but no not really. Played up to the first boss. Left it at that. I love the atmosphere in the Zenobia, really comes across well, very immersive even on a handheld. But the controls… Much too cumbersome. For the action game the series has become, really need twin sticks. Not buying a hideous lump of plastic. So both the game and the 3DS sit gathering dust. I used to take it on holiday, but I've not been away for over a year...

      Sorry Shoque, you probably wanted a yes or no answer didn't you? :).

        Actually I wanted to know how you liked the atmosphere, and I am with you. They definitely tried to recapture the atmosphere of the "old" RE. I bought it on 3DS as well on the cheap, but then heard they are gonna release it on consoles and Steam, so I played it on Steam. I think I will play it again some time soon because I rushed through it during exams time. 😕

        Still have to play Zero and 4. I would kill for a decent HD remake of part 2.

            It's been talked about many times (HD remake of 2). From what I remember, Capcom's official line is something like "we'd like to do it someday".

            Zero is extremely atmospheric, the Partner Zapping mechanic is what the co-op on 5+6 should have been.

            4 comes 2nd in my personal favourites, Shinji Mikami's last Biohazard game… It's all gone a bit wrong now. If you want to discuss RE more, please send me a PM, otherwise I'll derail the broad nature of the thread...

              Zero was easily my favorite. it introduced the drop item mechanic which was so convenient! Shoque i would def try to get my hands on Zero and give it a run through a couple of times. Also, leech hunter was much more fun for me than the mercenaries mini game. And agreed with Morose, 4 comes in second fave for me as well, it was the perfectly paced and put together video game. Did it revolutionize anything..no, but it made a fantastic game that is extremely replayable and very entertaining! And the best part about that game is you can buy it right from your psn/xbl.

                  ^ Only done around 16% so far… Lagging behind a bit 😞

                  Everything bad I ever said about Rakuten... I take it all back. Posted on Wednesday, arrived today. Must have been under the value for tax.

                  Bought both to shore up my stock of Biohazard merchandise to eventually resell on Ebay when I run short of cash… Might end up keeping both, this could set another dangerous precedent for my wallet 😞

                    Just had a further update from Amazon… After I had an email stating that my pre-ordered PS4 will now arrive for the U.K/European release date (29th November) a week or so ago, today I get one stating that my order of ACIV:BF will arrive 22nd November??

                    Why push the date of the PS4 ver ahead of the console release???

                    So the game arrives and I get to stare at it for a week before I can play it... ???

                          And I've just remembered that the Beyond Two Souls demo is released today… Must remember to dl it later and then not play it... No wait, that's not right...

                                  Finished Splinter Cell Blacklist a few days ago on the WiiU, superb game which is a combination of the rather action-y Conviction and the old parts. I like that it is pretty skillbased.

                                      MGS: Legacy Collection
                                      GTA V

                                      On order for the near future:

                                      Castlevania: LoS collection
                                      ACIV:BF (PS4)
                                      PS4
                                      Watchdogs (PS4)

                                      Think I need a few months off work…

                                      Although I did manage to both download and play the Beyond Two Souls demo. I sort of like the fact that you can't really fail at the game (pretty much any missed QTE eventually cuts to Jodie managing to extricate herself from danger) but I think I'll wait until next year to buy the full game.

                                      And my latest merchandise haul:

                                      The Beams x Biohazard I have been waiting pretty much 2 years to find… Sometimes I love Rakuten. More pics:

                                      T-shirt is still sealed, book has never been read. The only thing that stops this from being brand new is the cellophane taken off the box.

                                      Now to agonise over whether or not to look at the pictures (I won't pretend I understand any Kanji… I can puzzle out some Kata-kana sometimes) and try the T-shirt on  :-\
