General RE Project Platinum

The most important thing to take away from UCorps is the many companies that exist that compete in the black market. There’s like 10 or something which I don’t know all the names, but one of them is Shen-Ya. Calling the Umbrella Corps faction canon only to have them featured in an untranslated manga (Heavenly Island) 90% of fans won’t read was extremely underwhelming and stupid.

If they intended for the supplemental material to be important they should of saved it for a much better game. It can’t even be considered canon as a game because all the story was gutted out, the only glimpse of any is in the loading screen text in The Experiment, and it sounds like an 8 year old came up with it. I don’t know what the point of adding depth to the universe of RE is if it will never reach its full potential, all they care about now is one-off self contained stories.

I can’t wait for this game to be over with, but finding reliable boosting partners for this trash is one of the hardest things to pull off.

UCorps is done… I can’t believe it’s finally done! The grind was real towards the end with 500 matches and Multi-Mission randomness. It seemed like the more you played the more you discovered what you had to do, it took roughly 50+ hours. The U-Trials… whoever decided we had to do ALL of them I hope they are not working at/or with Capcom anymore. It was one of the most grueling and boring experiences I have had in recent memory.

I’ll be taking a break from RE but I will be resuming with Rev2 PS3 and RE8 PS4 when I pick it back up.
 
We’ll so much for the break, I decided to do RE8 on PS4. After a year of not touching the game and letting the dust settle, I have come to enjoy it a little more. What this game does best is letting the player actually explore for goodies, which no other RE has done to this extent. When I played it once a year ago I didn’t bother looking for everything which I regret, it was the most fun I had with it.

The speedrun was fun to memorize where to go (did it in 2:20:00) but I really dislike how messy the Village feels. It was like they copy pasted buildings together in a day and called it good. I still don’t really care that much for the story, but they all can’t be winners. Will be saving “The Mercenaries” for last since I heard it’s annoying to get through even though it’s more like Raid mode.

For now I will be making mince meat out of VoS mode with my infinite high powered STAKE magnum, it’s too good.

You actually did U Corps? I'm shocked lol!

Outbreak 100% collection would also be a wild one. No GameShark nowadays, those 100%'s would mean something.

Haha I actually did those back on PS2! The collectibles in that game were an absolute nightmare. Those were like 200 hours spent on, but sadly I don’t have those saves anymore. Unlocking all the stick figures was very rewarding and you could show them off to other players. Mr. Gold in particular was super broken.
 
To my horror I fired up Rev2 on Vita and let me tell you all.

IT IS ATROCIOUS!!

I cannot believe how badly this game runs on portable. The FPS dips to single digits at times and the loading rivals that of the Outbreak games, but even those games loaded faster than this! I am baffled this was green lit by Capcom and this is acceptable performance to them!? I don’t know if it runs better in PSTV but I am looking for any advice. I even installed a plug-in to make my system run faster and that did nothing.

Platting this game is going to be an absolute nightmare on Vita.

That is absolute hell, I couldn't but commend you for it. The most portable that game will ever get for me is Steam Deck. Not a huge fan of it already, but I'll at least say its silky smooth 60fps gameplay was a plus, take that away and its pretty torturous.
 
Thank you! This has started to become a massive undertaking the further I go into it. This is my progress according to PSNProfiles.com. There are a total of 1,224 trophies across all versions.

Speaking of recv; ripvanx, what do you think about recv's ps3 and ps4 ports?

I remember watching game footage from ps3 port and ı actually think it's a very good port. It improves the visual and atmosphere from ps2 port very well imo. It also makes lighter more useful from what ı understood due to increase atmosphere of the environments. It makes recv look like a very modern game to this day and this is yet another reason why ı dont need to see a re engine version of it.

Ps4 port however felt like a very lazy one from what ı've seen. It's pretty much ps2 port just adapted to a different console. The quality drop in terms of visuals and overall feel makes itself very obvious there.

If the game had an infinite ammo unlockable for story rather than it being exclusive to battle game, ı actually would consider getting recv's ps3 version from digital store. But it doesnt and due to that; ı would still stick to pcsx2 emulator since ı managed to find a way to apply infinite ammo cheat there.
You can unlock infinite ammo for rocket launcher in both versions but you have to beat the game in under 3 hours without continuing or dying, no saves or something like that. Yeah the lighting was much better on PS3, the PS4 version is literally just PS2. The no plat situation for RE4 is definitely stupid, we didn't even have to get all treasures or do Mercenaries.
 
I'll update my to-do list as I complete the games. I am definitely going to take a couple months off after doing Rev2 on Vita though. Really starting to get burnt out because what's left is either repetitive because I have done before or frustrating to play and simply not that fun. My shovel really started hitting the bottom of the shit bucket with UCraps which I am still recovering from lol. Once the RE8 DLC drops at the end of October, I will most likely kickstart this journey again. IRL is also starting to get in the way and with college starting up next month it will become way too stressful to continue. Thanks for all your inputs and motivation guys!
