I thought RE6 was pretty good. Granted it has some room for improvement but I don't see the need to reboot the entire series back to its "roots". I hope to holy hell that doesn't mean the return of those shitty fixed camera angles. I hate those so much that I haven't played anything before RE4 in years.

Oh and WHERE THE HELL is the team-up with Chris and Leon they kept hinting was going to happen in RE6?! All the promos and what not I remember seeing for RE6 had Chris meeting up with Leon but it ended up being in one freaking cutscene...nu-uh that shit's not gonna fly. There's your RE7. Chris and Leon kicking ass and taking names. You'd think it'd be a no brainer to put two of the series' most popular main protagonists together in a co-op story.

I'd definitely be cool with Chris & Leon, but I bet co-op will be one of the first features dropped to make RE7 more survival horror.

Contrary to popular opinion, I can still find scariness in co-op. It's like going into an abandoned, seemingly haunted hospital with a friend as kids and both letting your imaginations run wild. I actually miss the fixed camera angles though. It was a nuisance walking right into zombies that your character should have seen, but it could be done like Silent Hill, where the camera angles would only become fixed at times to highlight something important and never when enemies could exploit it.

I thought RE6 was pretty good. Granted it has some room for improvement but I don't see the need to reboot the entire series back to its "roots". Completely agree. I did miss the fixed angles until RE5-Lost In Nightmares. I didn't realize how dated it was until then. I actually miss the fixed camera angles though. It was a nuisance walking right into zombies that your character should have seen, but it could be done like Silent Hill, where the camera angles would only become fixed at times to highlight something important and never when enemies could exploit it. That works though. Have you guys been finding the the present codes for Revelations. I found some of them here. www.gamefaqs.com/boards/605603-resident-evil-6/65748445?page=3

Ah darn, they're for in-game guns? How do you get the present codes? From the scratch cards?

The codes basically pop in random places and are only good for a limited time. For example, the last one "herb" was revealed on the biohazard japan twitter page and I think it was only available for a day or two. One of them was revealed on some radio show. I've just been doing searches for present code every couple of days.

The link to Gamfaqs.com reed posted above is where I've been checking for them but only a few of them still work so use them fast. I guess I'll have to start checking it daily.

HEADS UP: PSN is having a Resident Evil sale the week of 4/23! Part of the Spring Fever sales event. They won't be unveiling the specific discounts until that week but you'll probably want to hold off on any RE purchases until then. What kinda deals are you guys hoping for? I'd love to pick up the ORC spec-ops campaign again (got it for 360 and really enjoyed it) for $10 or less, it's ridiculous that it's still selling for $20. There's a lot I could get depending on the values though, my XMB's RE folder is still missing 2, 3, 4, CV, & Umbrella Chronicles.

Maybe the Chronicles games for a cheap price. Not really anything else I need from the PSN.

^If you get them my advice is to start on easy. The boss fights can be crazy tough and you can't lower the difficulty if your save is at a mid-level checkpoint. So if you get stuck your only option is to go back and beat an earlier mission just so you can retry the current mission on easy. It seems like a minor issue but it's such a hassle and it totally killed the momentum I had going. Other that it's been awesome.

I have both chronicles games for the Wii but I just can't get into them.

Light gun games are like the ice cream of video games, a fun treat but I'm only in the mood for 'em every once in a while. I didn't know you had ORC Reed, if we both end up getting the add-ons at the same time and you wanna co-op, my PSN ID is the same as my board name.
I finally started up RE5: Desperate Escape for the first time and I forgot that the checkpoints in these add-on campaigns don't actually save when you quit. They're short so it's not a huge deal but I wish it reminded you so you didn't have to start over. That's why it took me months to beat Assigment Ada before I realized I kept quitting when I was like 80% of the way through lol.

Awesome! I've been FUCKING JONESING for a new survival horror game. The fact that it's from Shijni Mikami and Bethesda is tremendous!

I found this leaked list of the PSN Spring Fever RE sale. Not positive if it's the real thing but it seems about right:

Yikes, that could get costly for me. I was hoping for a RE6 Gold edition but I might just crack on those as well as the ORC DLC.
Mikami's new game looks pretty cool. Very Silent Hillish. Too bad its next gen.

Ignore that list of RE sales, it's just someone guessing by adding the standard 30% off, 50% off to every RE thing on the store. So it's a good estimate but not at all official. That's kind of good news though cuz now we'll probably see some even better deals, though I doubt every single piece of content will be on sale.

Well, the top portion is confirmed and Sony said, "There is also a lot of RE Add-Ons on sale; watch the PlayStation Store Update post tomorrow for the full list."
So, it's not entirely unlikely.
Going to finally bite the bullet and get those 2 HD bundles if they are on sale at that price. Been waiting and hoping they would come out on disc here to no avail, and the Japanese version only has English voices, but menus and item descriptions are all in Japanese. So, not really playable for me.
Like reed I was going to wait for a "gold edition" for ORC and 6, but if these sale prices are correct, I might as well grab the lot of DLC for the pocket change they'd cost.
