Oh how I shall sing the praises of the Resident Evil series. While RE3: Nemesis is the best of the bunch, IMO, the rest are quite good... well, Zero did fall a bit flat, but the multi character usage was nice... i will never forgive it for not having an "item stash box" in the save rooms, though. The remake of the original was great, even if the reanimated zombies were a pain...

So i have been stoked about RE: Outbreak forever.. and i preprder it... and get my cool free stuff from GameStop.. and I play it.. and i hate it. Tiny inventories, no voice support so teamwork online is next to impossible, and the same old "someone stole the virus for profit" sort of theme.

It is so bad that I don't think i will get RE:4 when it comes out. I guess the series is just played out. I can only hope that Silent Hill 4 doesn't go down the dumper as well.

>> thanks for telling me. I was thinking of getting it cause you were all excited.. but now I wont :D saves money this way XD

oh come on. Playing as Jim running around yelling every random thing was comical :P

Comical, yes.. not $50 comical.

I thought the game play was RE solid, thought it did get kinda boring fast. (Bought the JP verson when it came out) I never got to play online since I don't have the JP HDD or Network hub. I wish there was more than 5 levels. :/
