RESIDENT EVIL DS, WIPE OFF THAT BLOOD

OMG this is awesome

http://ds.ign.com/articles/644/644741p1.html

Seriously; do you get this? It's everything I could have hoped, you use the stylus to slash at your enemies (in first person no less), there will be some form of wireless support (COME ON MULTIPLAYER), zombies can now come through obstacles... invading rooms you thought you had cleared; and you even have new traps and character models staring you in the face. Also; you get to wipe blood off your screen with the stylus... beautiful; I'm sold, that makes game #14 or so on the AAA list of DS titles

EDIT: To clarify though; it is another version of RE1, not exceedingly pretty I guess but seriously to have this on the go must be the ****












*goes ape*****

Awesome.

And for everybody who wants screens, go here.

That is horrible looking so far.

Damn, another remake of RE1? XD No way they'll be able to top the remake, but this still sounds like it'll be cool, ESPECIALLY the fact that the zombies will be more active in trying to get you.

The screens do look icky so far, but that can be attributed to being so early in development. And it looks like it's based on the PS1 version's mansion instead of the GC one. No Lisa Trevor.

Not much to look at, but the whole slash with stylus thing, the fact that they are hunting you and blood wiping will make for one incredible gmaing experience.

Well it's apparently still early in development, so it'll hopefully be polished up a bit... And after all, the DS isn't exactly thought of for its graphics.

I think it certainly looks interesting, but I hope the touch screen is used more than just for puzzles... why couldn't they have the top screen show where the character is, while the bottom screen shows a first person viewpoint. You can use the D-pad and stuff to move your character and where they are facing, but you can also direct where they are facing with the bottom screen and use it to aim ALL of your weapons, so it's easier to get headshots and shoot things that you want.

While they probably aren't implementing that, it'd certainly be cool... Maybe one day =P

I guess this looks better in motion... :|

It honestly doesn't look like it's ready for our eyes. But most if not all DS games look better than this as far as that last comment goes. XD

I suppose I'm just spoiled because of Resident Evil 4. Dunno.

The graphics look amazing for the DS.

Much better than the Playstation version...

Could be a little smoother though.

I'm a bit disappointed that it's just a re-telling of the first game. :\ Would've been nice to have a new story, but ah well, if they continue with the plaga storyline I don't guess there's much more they can do with zombies, and of course they should save the next big chapter of the storyline for a home console

And SP, I don't know what you're talking about, that looks pretty dang good for a DS game.

Well, this is one bloodfest i'm gonna miss. Since horror gives me gas. And heart attacks.

You don't know about RE5?

One should also notice that the screenshots you're looking at are shown to you in resolutions higher than what they will appear on your DS, the game will appear much smoother on the small screen, as is the case with all portable ttles.

This gets me all pumped for Scarey Game 2!

But I'll actually play this one more than I have the other Resident Evils just because they've made it more "fun" with the blood wiping and the first-person aspects. Seems like it'll bring a lot more to the old "trot around in a mansion while using Klik N' Play And now here they are! The most daredevil group of daffy drivers to ever whirl their wheels in the Wacky Races. Competing for the title of worlds wackiest racer. The cars are approaching the starting line. First, is the Turbo Terrific driven by P movement."

DO'H! Silly me, I completely forgot that had been announced. Haven't done much research on it though.

*goes off to do that now*

Yeah RE5 looks good; but really, only marginally better than 4, while not a bad thing, it puts Nintendo's perspective on next-generation graphics in... perspective

I don't know if I'll get this... the GCN remake scared me enough. XD

EDIT: Just looked at the screens. afjdkdlsfjadfa they look worse than the original Playstation game. Seriously, it's like I'm looking at Doom for the SNES.

I'm obviously going to get this. I'm wearing a S.T.A.R.S. jacket right now.

Do you have a picture? I want to get the RE4 jacket/cologne they're selling

I just got my jacket today at Hot Topic. And I lack a camera to take a picture of it.
