I agree about the fact they should take a break of so much Leon and Chris, but especially of Leon for the movies. They have so many characters they could focus on.

I only watched Vendetta for Chris and Rebecca but Leon's forced presence with his weird action scenes ruined the whole movie for me. Also some of the fight scenes/choreographies of Chris VS Glenn which were pretty ridiculous.

I'm trying to be excited about Infinite Darkness but the way they're treating Claire just makes me really angry. When they announced the Remake, Claire only appeared for one single shot in the entire trailer and they wouldn't show gameplay of her until a few weeks if I remember well. In Degeneration Leon stole the show and the movie ended up being about him and Angela (even though the best scenes of the movie were all Claire's imo). I really hope they won't play the damisel in distress card again with Leon having to save Claire or something. It's time they give female characters the importance they deserve. It's time they leave Leon out of the movies and start focusing on other characters.

Yay, Claire! Though I hope she's less Rev2-like. Slightly at least, since her character wasn't a major departure back then.

But I can't stand RE6 Leon, unfortunately. Kill him with fire. Not that it would die, anyway, but it's worth trying.

EDIT: If it was RE2 Leon (any RE2 version) I'd ship them together. But this being RE6 Leon...he can keep pursuing Ada, for all I care.

Someone has played a demo of RE8 and has screenshots. Some of the details are insane. Gonna really shake up the horror landscape and could indeed set itself up to being as iconic as RE4.

Jesus ****ing christ, if you stay inside the houses the enemies will burn it down while your inside. Ammo also being restricted and your forced to use the environment to combat the enemies.

I can't wait to see it in action myself.

I wouldn't go that far. Or you could and I quote, "Be living in a van down by the river."

My guess is it will be PG. Or it will be the kind of fan disservice one can expect from a series like this. Would most likely be a horrible naked abomination. Much like the skort from the RE3 Remake.

If they do remake RE4 I'm not buying it. They best thing they could do is remaster it. With a better engine, graphics and the removal of all QTEs.

RE: Infinite Darkness

I like both their models, though they both look like they are wearing a smidge too much makeup. And Leon's hair looks too big for his now more narrow, angular jawline.

Infinite Darkness being in an episodic format does sound more appealing. But I do think Jill deserves to be in the frontline, we've seen too much of Leon.
Damnation isn’t bad. Ada and Svetlana fighting was one of the best female fights I’ve seen in a movie

Shame part of it was reused from RE4 though. That really ruined it for me..

That's the only scene I still remember.

Ada's model did look really amazing though.
