Going to guess it'll land around 90. I've avoided looking at coverage of the game but what little I have caught has been extremely positive.

+90 MC is gonna be hard I think. Personally I'm expecting 88.

No seriously what the fuck is that and why did he use that instead of his superspeed and matrix shit?

It's like the script needed him to lose and behold, "mouth Las Plagas".
Pretty much the same as all RE games, enemies are pretty much invincible in their human form but for some weird reason they love to transform into slow ass blobs with a big yellow target for our heroes to strike.

I'm going 87. It will be praised, but its clearly going to have a few rough edges, and the DLC unlockable bullshit is just god awful. Not only should that stuff be free, but there isn't even anything decent, and stuff that should be here is clearly missing...

Doing some early morning errands where I am so I'll have a couple hours to dedicate to updating the OP with reviews when they start hitting, but definitely some things to post while waiting and seeing people vote in the poll.

The classic George Romero RE2 commercial, worth bringing up here:


And I really like this "retrospective" RE remix composing all the mainline RE games from RE1 - RE6:



fuuuuuu.

how do you people determine whether to get this for PS4Pro or PC?

Could try the one-shot demo for both and see which one you prefer?

The demo sold me. I'm really torn on the platform, though. XB1X is quieter, but I have most of the series on my PS4P.

It's also amusing how they usually declare that they are becoming the ultimate lifeform who will rule the world, only to turn into some gross flesh monster with tentacles or some blob.

Suppose they succeed in killing the heroes and fulfilling their plans, are they really going to rule the world as ugly animalistic monsters that can barely talk (if even that)? Unless they are going to pull off being the Virus/Plaga version of Leto II Atreides from Dune.

I really wanted to vote 89-92 in the poll, but I think some points will be docked because of its horror aspects. I think an aggregate score in the mid 80s is more likely. I'm still trying to stay optimistic, so I voted 85-88.

Loved the demo but think reviewers might go mid 80's review wise. Time will tell, didn't realise the embargo lifted today
