That's how it really went down. That stuff in CVX and RE5 was just some fanfiction. Albert got bitchslapped, wet himself, and ran away.

Interesting. I never had a Dreamcast so I never knew this scene was changed from the original game. I think I prefer the CVX version of this scene since it shows what Wesker can do without downplaying Alexia and he gets some lines with Chris.
They changed a fair bit in CVX. That scene with Wesker beating up Claire was new I believe. They originally wanted to "tease" the reveal that it was him and he was still alive.
Also Code Veronica Steve had different hair. Poeple say he looked like Leonardo DeCaprio.
First it sounded like he was saying Craig. Then train. Now it sounds like he's saying Crane.
What do people think is next for the series? RE5 and RE6 had a fair mix of reviews.
Well, who knows. Maybe Capcom will get over themselves and their fear of releasing a game that won't sell well and make a decent B-Movie Survival Horror type game.
Alternatively, they'll keep going the same way, and make a dumb cover based shooter with zombies maybe.
I haven't been following the series since 4. According to some of my friends who follow it closely some think a reboot combining the first three games would be best, others think it has enough stories that it can just go on from here with what they got, then I keep hearing from Shadow Leggeh's channel that Capcom wants to compete with Call of Duty and that's why 6 was the way it was.
Then there are people moaning over Jill's face model change as if we haven't already gone through a kabillion models for her already. The girl's been through enough changes to qualify as a Time Lady.
I'll be honest, I have a weakness for blondes so I'm okay with her new look. Some people call RE5 Jill "Big Nose Jill" I believe but whatever. Some people make fun of Ashley's ears too and they don't bother me.
Also a guy elsewhere linked me to a few cutscenes from RE6. This one is kinda spoilery so be warned.

It's not at all what I expected. Whereas 4 was intentionally dumb and 5 was unintentionally dumb, this game seems to be going very much for a very grounded, very serious story focused on character development.
It's interesting if nothing else. Can't say if it was well done but there you are. It's something new at least.
I actually wasn't talking about RE 5 Jill. They changed the model her character design is based on in Revelations and there was a 30+ paged thread on the Capcom forum dedicated to bitching about it. I found it humorous at first, then it was just sad.
Blonde Jill didn't bother me. Making her look like a dominatrix kind of bothered me, though.
Capcom Sales Figures, including RE titles obviously

RE4 is surprisingly low. I keep forgetting that for all its revolutionary impact on gaming and beloved status, it has never been the top dog in terms of sales in the franchise.
Original RE1 being so high is interesting though. I thought for a second they were just adding up all the sales from all the crazy number of ports and whatnot but nope, just PS1 and only the original PS1 game at that. But seriously, if you add up every version of RE1's sales, I think it be #1.
That and REZero selling over a million copies (thus being a success, according to this) makes me feel vindicated in those two being the only RE games I care about anymore.
