Like the title says, which do you prefer?
Do you like the Umbrella-themed monsters and zombies from the first set of Resident Evil games (RE: Code Veronica and before)? Or the Las Plagas inspired monsters from the new Resident Evil games (RE 4 and beyond) more??

Classic RE for me, although I enjoy the new games as well.
-
Classic monsters... but yet, RE4 was my fav.
-
I like them both.
-
Both are good, though Las Plagas are far more interesting to fight.
-
I like the classic monsters better, too. But then I'm biased, because I love horror movies, ESPECIALLY zombie movies.
And unlike most, I don't think RE 4 is the best in the series. I don't think it's the 2nd best, even. I like all the classic-style RE games more. RE 2 is the best one, IMO. I can't wait for the remake to come out!
-
While I do like and appreciate RE4, I sort of hold a grudge against it for sending the series into the direction it is currently in. It became more of an action shooter than a survival horror game, and with that the story (and monsters) became a lot less interesting to me.
-
I think RE4 will always be the greatest RE game by ridiculous margins for me, but then again I'm biased because I hate the control schemes of the old games lol

That's how I feel. Resident Evil 4 reignited my interest in the series because it was so fun to play, whereas the first games with the tank-like control scheme were only fun to watch while someone else suffered/struggled with the controls.

RE4 has tank controls, too. Up is always forwards. You just move faster.

It's more of a third person shooter than whatever the previous games were and you have proper aiming controls so you aren't just vaguely shooting in the direction of where you want to hit. I actually need to go back and replay RE4 again sometime. Haven't done that in years. I was waiting for the high quality texture pack to get finished on PC so that I can utilize that which would be real nice.

Exactly. There's the ability to turn quickly, aim at certain body parts and just an overall smoother feel. It's been a hot minute since I played RE4, too. After playing The Evil Within, it made me want to replay RE4 but I never got around to it.
-
They added the turn quick thing in RE: Code Veronica, actually. But yeah, the aiming is MUCH better, and you move more quickly in general.
-
Here's that RE4 HD Texture Pack page if anyone is interested. They are still just over half-way done, but they at least have the village area finished and seem to be close to getting the castle done. http://www.re4hd.com/

Interesting, I have yet to try Code Veronica. That might be worth checking out.

Let me clarify this, after re-reading it. I mean the aiming and movement is much quicker in general, IN RE4.
-
Can you still do a quick-turn in Veronica?

Yeah. Well, I know you can in the PS2 version, I can't say for sure if it's included in the original Dreamcast version.

If you don't mind me saying this way i kinda like both equally as long as A the story is good/as long as the plots any good & B as long as the characters is not annoying don't know what i mean this scene you might remembered to prove my point.
Ashley Gramm: Leeeeeeoooooon Heeeeeeellllllllllp
I hopefully i did it correctly it's kinda hard to phrase it properly on here don't get me wrong RE4 is still is 1 of my favorite games & most of all C as long as the game is good and scary if you know what i mean and it's a + if the soundtrack fits perfectly with the scene,with the atmosphere and most of all it's a + if the soundtrack fits perfectly with that moment in the game &or in the series :).
