Have you ever tried getting a program for writing novels or stories? There are a few really good ones out there that are free downloads and give you tools to help write and organize a story. The one I found that I like is YWriter4. What exactly does a program like that do? I mean, obviously it can't write the story for you, but... Is it a program like Microsoft Wordpad or something thereof?

I meant the big deal the guy himself made. The "big deal" is purely in his head. But the fact of the situation is that RE5 is set in Africa, so there's obviously going to be a majority of dark-skinned inhabitants. Unless he thinks everyone in Africa is white or Asian or something, in which case he needs to go back to school.

Curtis Miller injected himself with the G-virus to prove his anti-Umbrella/TriCell point.
Personally I don't understand his logic.

I don't know who I hate more, Ashley or Steve... No, wait, scratch that: I hate Steve more.

They could have given us a character pairing we hadn't seen before, but other than that I had no complaints about it.

You've gotta give it time to get going. You're too impatient.

It'll be in the last place you look. Trust me, it always is.

Yep, it's always gotta be about race. Yeah, I put those last three options in for comedic purposes.

I doubt people see that though. Pose? What pose? All I see are a killer set of legs... ;D

I found another interview or whatever with that N'Gai Croal, the guy who originally cried racism, and he had an interesting comparison between RE4 & 5. Ah, so it's racist when the enemies are black like you, but everything's kosher when it's another ethnic group? Hmm, I wonder how you'd react if the situation was reversed and it was a black protagonist killing white people? I'd bet my right arm that you wouldn't have a single word of complaint. In fact, you'd probably praise them for "putting whitey in his place". So because I don't think RE5 is racist, I'm incapable of understanding racism and racism can't be discussed with me? That's pretty much the same thing as you saying "F you, the game's racist because I say it is" to every individual who disagrees with you. N'Gai Croal, sir, you are a hypocrite and by perceiving RE5 as racist, you are in fact admitting that you yourself are racist and narrow-minded. Yes, racism is still prevalent in the world, but not everyone in the world is racist like you. Here's the full interview if you want to read it, but it's full of this guy's ignorance and hypocrisy. multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2008/04/10/newsweeks-ngai-croal-on-the-resident-evil-5-trailer-this-imagery-has-a-history/

This is true, and he really didn't do anything wrong. I remember seeing an interview with him in which he said he knew people would be upset with his take on the games, but that he viewed the movies as another side of the story. In other words events that just didn't make it to the games. Well, if you think about it, he really had no choice but to go in his own direction. The first Resident Evil movie was originally intended to be a prequel to the events of the first game, but Capcom really screwed him over with RE0 (not that Capcom didn't have the right to write their own backstory, but you get my point, I assume) and as a result he was forced to write his own story. That's my attitude in regards to the live action movies. I would much rather see an original story than sit through something I've already experienced, whether it's canonical to the game series plot or not. But the only argument people seem to muster is this: Well, who the frack cares? I mean, what's the main demographic that a video game movie like Resident Evil is made for in the first place? The gosh-darned fans of the game, right? And as one of those fans, I want to see something I haven't played, that I don't know what will happen, that I don't know who will live and who will die, or who will betray who at the end. But on a side note, we should probably try to refrain from chatter in this topic, though, don't you think?

Yeah, if you beat it on normal or higher with both characters on one file, bomb zombie is automatically triggered. Invisible enemy mode is separately selectable, though I don't recall if it's unlocked separately or concurrently with bomb zombie mode (I haven't played REmake in quite a while).
I play on two files, though. One for each character, since you have to re-unlock the extra outfits for one if you play as the other on the same file.

You would be altering the core facts of the story, and it may not be received well, as many do not like liberties taken with their Resident Evil. Exactly. Look at how so many RE fans want to crucify Paul W. S. Anderson, for example.

Yeah, I played the very beginning of that, blew myself up, then never played it again. After that, I made it a point to only play the game as Jill on normal or higher, as completing it with both characters on normal or higher unlocks the bomb zombie.
I've never had any inkling to bother with invisible enemy mode.
