Summer 2011. That was when I first really noticed shitposters like (You) shitting the place up. And to think you're still shitting the place up like you were back then. It must take a special type of auism and lack of life to be so perseverant.

I'm so excited about Resurrection coming out next week. The art style has really grown on me, and I'm glad capcom isn't too woke to make a game in 2021 where you save a damsel in distress.

It's a great game, and your complaints seem to compare a home console game to an arcade game, which is questionable at best.

Idk anon it looks like shit
Hopefully the gameplay is decent but why they don't do something with a pixel art style similar to the originals I don't understand

And since when is this a good story?

[Anonymous No.7427524]

>>7427494
When they first showed it, I literally laughed at how ugly it was, but honestly it's grown on me a lot since I've watched the dev diaries. It looks way better in motion than I thought, but I'm sure lots of people will be turned off by the art style, which sucks because it's such a rarity nowadays to get a classic-style, non-cinematic video game from a big company like capcom. I just hope it does well enough to show there's a market for this sort of thing, I'm still hoping for the pendulum to swing in the opposite direction of 4 hour long cinematic experiences in favor of clean, well-designed games like we used to get. An old man can dream.

It's not a novel or a movie, it's a video game. A simple story =/= a bad story.

The new one looks like a fucking Flash game, bro. It does NOT look good. Hopefully it plays better than it looks.

[Anonymous No.7428174]

SPLATTERHOUSE is my favorite. Monster Party and Monster in My Pocket are also great!

>>7427482
Yeah looks like it has potential. The arcade games are coming to Switch too, if you want to buy some ROMs.

I think the graphics look really nice, the problem is the animation makes the art look really bad

Abbadox is gross as hell and fits the "spookemup" genre. Dark arms is creepy too.

You posted it. With the slowdown fix of course.

Almost all SNES games were half or 100% gimmicks, not that the mega was better in that sense

For every mario world, you had castlevania '' rotating room '' iv and super gng is not an exception to the rule

Can you take your consolewar faggotry elsewhere?

[Anonymous No.7428738]

It is not console war, I have been playing about 20 snes games now and I keep wondering why they are so glorified. if a game is good, some gimmick destroys the fps and the others are bad because they are created around gimmicks.

what about the arcade version? I don't think I played the SNES version much
>>7428738
they were gimmicky but I feel like slowdown was much more acceptable back then, like you said it was common across all consoles

[Anonymous No.7428756]

>what about the arcade version?
Ghouls 'n Ghosts is a totally different game. It's cheaper with its random enemy spawns and stuff. It feels more sloppy and like an arcade game that wants your money. Still a great game though.

I have also been playing about 20 games on the mega drive and so far I am satisfied with the console's stability. but I feel that the design of the games could be better

The animation is kinda wobbly-looking, but for certain creatures I think it's an appealing way to go. The way the zombies and skeleton murderers animate in particular, I think, looks really great. Arremer's flapping wings look cool, too, but again, to each their own. I can definitely see it turning some people off, I was one of them at first because the announcement trailer made it look particularly shitty. I just am so happy this series is getting some love without it being re-engineered from the ground up to have light crafting elements or some other gay non-gameplay bullshit from modern games.

takes being old having actually played the games on an arcade or the attention span to emulate them, guessing OP did neither
I played Ghouls through one of those Capcom compilations back on the Xbox but this thread makes me want to emulate it properly now

It reminds me of the hatred that the arcade version of castlevania receives.

I know it's not a good game, but do you want to tell me that the game didn't inherit anything that already existed in the franchise?
