GCN version is the best. The game wasn't meant to be played with widescreen, and the motion controls are too OP. You can perfect the gallery games in a matter of plays. It takes all the challenge out.
>MUH SELF-IMPOSED RESTRICTIONS
It's not about making a game challenging. It's just the way RE4 was meant to be played. Also, the PS2 additions all suck, including Separate Ways.

Finally, only the GCN version has analog triggers for your gun. Feels good on a horror game. Pressing a button to take out your gun is an immersion-breaker.

How retarded are you? Every dungeon in OoT is a straight line except the Water Temple, the Shadow Temple is the worst Zelda temple ever because of how linear it is.
The dungeons in MM actually ask that you pay attention to the dungeon as a whole rather than just linearly gating you behind a bunch of independent puzzles.

You know a game doesn't have to be scary to be considered Horror. It has plenty of the typical themes and elements, and the atmosphere, especially in the initial levels (and later on with Regenerators) are very in line with the 'Horror" label.

Except they aren't since MM's aren't straight lines and are based around a hub with a lot more backtracking and asks more of the player in terms of using the structure of the dungeon to progress such as Snowpeak and Stone Tower.

>>377252263
Aside from REmake and Zero, no RE game is about ammo conservation and inventory management. RE2 and 3 are just as much shooting games as RE4, just with prerendered camera angles and bad voice acting and dialogue.

if anything 4 is actually the scariest in the series.

>>377252910
It is a godsend video game though.

>>377252668

You retard. You faggot. Wii version has GOAT controls (wiimote+nunchuk) but if you want to be that guy, you can literally use your gamecube controller, or a classic controller if you prefer a PS2 style controller.
That, plus it has all of the additions from the PS2 version.

>>377251869
The OoT experience was subjective and part of what made it so great was playing it before all the stuff that learned from it. In 1998 that game was straight up "blow your fucking mind" territory. At this point the only truly great 3D games(not including early FPS like Doom and Wolfenstein they aren't the same) were racing games and SM64(I don't like Banjo fite me). Zelda was a fucking mind blow nothing matched it's quality of presentation or had it's breadth of unique and memorable locations. It's OST is legendary as well. Ask anyone who played the game as a kid and they can probably hum tons of different tunes from it. Yes Half-Life had just released as well but way more people who are in the age group that would browse 4chan had an N64 as a kid than had a computer that could run Half-Life on release.

It set a standard for presentation that took forever to match. Anyone who wasn't fortunate enough to play System Shock 2 didn't see something that was as well presented(and was fully 3d) until Halo:CE.

>>377252919
>Aside from REmake and Zero, no RE game is about ammo conservation and inventory management.
I have to disagree because I think if you manage to find people who have never played the tank control era games and randomly let them play any of them for the first time they will all have equal trouble their first play-through with ammo and item management. But if you have played one game you already know how things go for the others, but that doesn't mean in a vacuum they aren't still survival horror games.

>>377253327
>doesn't have real time cutscenes

It does have this. I don't know about the other stuff.

>>377250681
Wind Waker, Majora's Mask, Link to the Past, Link between Worlds, Breath of the Wild, Twilight Princess, and even Link's Awakening were better than Ocarina of Time.

>>377253327
>Wii version doesn't have damage reduction on Leon's armor

>doesn't have the GCN fog or hair effects, doesn't have the original Semi-Auto Sniper.

>>377253327
>Wii version doesn't have damage reduction on Leon's armor, doesn't have real time cutscenes, doesn't have the GCN fog or hair effects, doesn't have the original Semi-Auto Sniper.
All this is untrue besides the ps2 ported stuff like Seperate Ways that retains the pre rendered fmvs from that version.

>>377253595
RE1 MAYBE, but in RE1 the zombies all have a preset amount of health and the dogs can be hitstunned by anything, and that's MOST of the game.

RE2 you can run n' gun the entire way through, same with 3.

>>377253327

>those reasons

Kill yourself. It has real time cutscenes, and it has more content, best controls, and most control types.

You're just being difficult for no reason. Literally nobody thinks the GC version is better except you.

The original Semi-Auto sniper on the Gamecube version had a much, MUCH faster fire rate, it was nerfed in all post GCN releases.

Also, Wii version uses the garbage reworked PS2 AI where the standard farmer Ganados are all projectile-happy, 80% or so of enemies who have a throwable weapon will throw them, also they try to flank around you more.

>>377253934
WW is far better than OoT by virtue of better item integration, something done very well in the 2D games that OoT decided to throw away.

So in one post you complain that the Wii version is easier because of the controls, even though you didn't know there were more control types(because you're a dumb faggot)

And now you're saying it's worse because they made a weapon worse?

Maybe i'll have to play through RE 2 again and refresh my memory, but again knowledge of the game makes shit so much easier. I could load up a RE1 right now and beat the game in sub 5 hours and end the game with a surplus of ammo, killing a majority of the enemies in game. I really don't think that its a very good metric to deem something survival horror. By that metric no silent hill game is survival horror for the same reasons because Melee is OP.

Ah I completely forget about this flaw of the PS2/Wii versions all the time. I just remember it cut down the on-screen enemy count from like 20 to 8. I think I remember frowning at the burning truck mob scene because they don't even rush you. But I could be misremembering.

I wouldn't post DMC1 as my GOAT if I thought it was shit. Still worth playing by all means, it's just more of a direct action game with great enemy design, and aggressive enemies like say NG, than how the series progressed to be more combo-heavy from 3 onward. Don't listen to fags who parrot "dated and clunky", they're just upset they can't play it like DMC3. It still has plenty of tools to switch the combat up.

Also best atmosphere by far.

Just like RE4, it's not as immersive an experience as the original controls. Pointing to switch modalities rather than using the C-stick for Samus' gun signs sucks. The ability to aim anywhere freely like in MP3 is nice but it doesn't make up for that and the lack of texture effects on the gun when charging, and the inability to get the hover boots early like in the non-Player's Version of Prime 1. I don't care about the water effects being missing though. Also I don't care about Prime 2 so I don't know what benefits the Wii version adds to that.

While you are free to like whichever version of the game that you want I don't really understand this point. In one game you are a highly trained U.S. Government operative and the other you are a superhuman bounty hunter. How is not having tighter, more responsive controls more immersive?

>>377256212
>The only GoW I think should be up there with the best games of all time is the 1st. Beautifully crafted game from start to finish. The others.. meh. Especially #2.
Well, to each to their own. I think the first game hasn't aged that well compared to the later ones, and I really miss stuff like Golden Fleece and using a bow when replaying the first GoW. The third one looks great, plays smoothly, gives more tools for you to use in battle and has most of my favorite boss battles so I'm gonna go with that. Even though I think 3 > 2 > 1, the first game is still a solid 9/10 and all of them are infinitely better than the blunder that was Ascension.

>>377254841
did the combat differ a lot from 3? it seemed like you were more open in 1, but 3 shoved all your skills into "classes" and that put me off.

>>377256680
I would argue that the the controls in RE 1 - CV aren't clunky, but that is a different argument.

>>377252374
I tired it anon. I really did. But after the 20th time of being killed then having to back track aaaaaaall the way back just to get killed again, it just got to be too annoying to keep playing. Its rwlly not for me. Some of the best world and character design ive ever seen though.

>>377250451

>>377257036
1's combat is more about the action-reaction dynamic of enemies, you have a small repertoire of moves but they get the job done. 3 is mostly about memorization of combos and muh freestylan on enemies with large health pools with the occasional dodge or royal guard, at least outside the boss battles.

They're both very different styles of combat. I don't know why people can't see this and appreciate the differences without resorting to superiority wankfests. Some people just judge an action game based on how well you can combo shit.

Since RE4 was already posted, I'll post the game that contends with it for me. Dark Souls isn't perfect (the quality dips after Anor Londo ) but it has given me memories I will always treasure and is a game I can replay infinitely.

>>377257036
>did the combat differ a lot from 3?
Yeah, DMC1 has slower more methodical combat. Regular enemies are also more aggressive in 1 than in 3.

>it seemed like you were more open in 1,
Quite the opposite actually.

>but 3 shoved all your skills into "classes" and that put me off.
In DMC1, you had three different basic actions: jump, attack and shoot. DMC3 added a style system so that on top of those three basic actions you had one specialized action based on your currently equipped style.

This and Four Kings are the only things that I dread fighting. The former because it isn't even a boss; it's a stage with a health bar. Four Kings is bullshit because it's a dps race and you have to waste one of your ring slots so you can fight a mandatory boss.

>>377257819
I just saw some video and the only real thing I'd have a hard time going back to is the way you change weapons. but yeah, the slower more deliberate style is definitely better to me. something more than the souls games, but not so but not so button mashy as later entries. besides, most of those skills were just for show.

Games are meant to be challenging by definition, and are such tailored to a specific control. To change those controls is to change the very foundations of the way was meant to be played. That it is. "Tighter, more responsive controls" is sweet and innocent talk that only those whose hands have never known the ways of hardcore retro gaming can believe.

>>377257559
You are likely pampered and playing them beyond their time after other games have copied the conventions they introduced and done them worse. So you associate their failure with OoT when you see the primeval state of those conventions and so you think they're nothing special.

Nah it had lock on, the biggest difference was that you couldn't move and it's a pretty big difference but alas Mega Man did do lock on before.

>>377263085

I'm just curious. no need to get your jimmies rustled, bud.
same with re4. people confuse well made for being influential. in fact, most influential games aren't very well made, since they were the first to do them. no one talks about how amazing space wars is.

>>377263624
RE4 is influential though, for bad reasons. It killed the horror genre

>>377255259
Possibly, he should have been the final boss though.

>>377263712
Angra remains one of the worst final bosses in a video game, it's a shame too because the Azel fight is perfection.

>>377263793
I wouldn't say that, it just seems that way because Azel is so perfect, and then it's followed up by a boss that's just sort of mediocre. It's still a better boss fight than something like the final boss of Raidou 2 or the QTE boss fights in games like Shadow Of Mordor, if you want to count those.

>>377250983

Yeah I guess, just disappointing since Angra is one of the few bosses that isn't a humanoid so you can't launch him and get cuhrazyee on him and he doesn't require the amount of pure skill that Azel does.
The fight really is just getting up to him mashing Square and then dodging his heavily telegraphed moves, I mean it's not awful but he's probably the second worst boss behind Psycho Midget.
I'm not really sure what else I'd do with the concept of him either though.

Only after I finished witcher 3 I started wanting to play witcher 1 and 2 just to have one more quest with Geralt. One more curse to lift, one more monster to slay.

Great game

This, I bought the game and played for 30 minutes tops and threw it away, some weeks after I picked it up and tried to beat it just out of spite and that's when the fun started.
>the running around thru shortcuts you opened along the way
>the slow and punishing combat
>sen's funhouse
>doing the frampt ending and hearing about this other snake in the DLC and being like "wat"
>actually researching about Kathe and doing the totally opposite ending that you have been so focused in doing first
>the hidden in plain sight lore

Most games make me feel alive once or twice but Dark Souls just took it to another level, too bad the sequels didn't live up to that legacy.

Played this nonstop with my little brothers, got really good with Sauske but my little bro was a god with Brock lee and Gara

The sequels don't live up to it, but Bloodborne definitely does. It's not as good, but the gameplay is better and it's got that interconnectedness that Dark Souls had. The new lore is also very good.

Lost Izalith is shit and I'll always take the shortcut in new playthroughs to avoid it. Every other area is perfectly fine if not amazing (Dukes archive). Admittedly the Tomb of the giants is a lot more pleasant with sunlight maggot than the skull lantern. I found O&S overrated in terms of difficulty and Seath and Nito pretty underrated. If you play blind Nito is a bitch. O&S is a much fairer fight.

Anyone else really like this game?

>>377271063
yes but I liked 2 more

>>377271063
I remember really liking it, though I never got far. When I look back at it, I can't understand how they managed to make the game control that good, when it's such a weird concept.

I still feel like the concept is kind of wasted on a platformer, it could be so much more.

>>377266458
I- I liked TOV more, but I agree with the rest of your sentiment.

>>377270764
too bad I own no consoles, it was a pain to properly play dark souls but at least I could play them

>>377272109
It sucks. I recently got a PS4 mainly because I needed to play it, and I knew that it wasn't the end of its colaboration with From.

Demon's Souls is supposedly pretty good too, though I've barely played it, if you have or can get a PS3.
