Capcom seems to enjoy making these games into action shooters. I don't really know what to think of them these days. Of course, I'm still dedicated to their games, but something just seems 'off' with them these days. They also seem to enjoy copying ideas from horror movies and other games, as I've often pointed out on Biohaze and many other forums. It's like they are just plodding it along.

I prefer they do a full reboot of the series because the story was a mess post 2 with Dino stalker you fight dinosaurs in hyperspace and Dino crisis 3 is completely unrelated.

I'm in the minority but I actually enjoyed the third game for what it was and loved the weird dino hybrid designs. I do wish it was a brand new IP and not called Dino Crisis 3 though.

To be honest, I feel the same way about games such as RE4. While RE4 is a solid action game, it kind of sucks as a RE game. It felt dumb how the older games established a story with Umbrella, and they axed it just like that. It has taken years for Capcom to get back on track, but they're stuck living in the year 1998.

People may get bored of the same type of games, sure. However, changing things radically just to go with newer trends, can really piss off even the most loyal of fans.

One is apparently a "soft reboot" that has been in development for over a year by this point, and the other is speculated to be a revival of...Silent Hills itself. :oops:

There's a lot of evidence to back up these claims too, as opposed to the usual, 'I heard that, blah blah blah...' type of stuff that you typically find on Twitter, and whatnot.

Also, I'm glad that the game that's likely to come first, is a new game that will NOT ignore the rest of the series. And a third movie is allegedly in development now, as well.



:geek:

A part of me hopes that this is not going to happen. The last Silent Hill games were so far away from what made the original Silent Hill games great that I wish the series would be put to rest forever.

If they just handed over everything to Sony and made some deals it might work. But the Pachi-slot overlords would probably want a terrible one sided deal for even basic use of their old IPs. Then again why bother when the actual lore and connection to the original trilogy has been severed for so long now.

Yeah. Maybe this is their way of making it up to the fans, after all the times we hated on them. But as you say, Mocata, the shine has already been taken off the diamond too long ago.
