Forum Merge

Hi guys,

There's a suggestion in RQFS to merge this forum with the PS2 and PC versions of the game. This merge would be permanent and would move all the communities into one forum.

Would you guys be interested in this occurring? Are you for or against this? Please let me know by posting here!

Thanks!

re: Forum Merge

Sounds like a plan. There's no point having seperate forums unless the versions of the game are actually different somehow.

I'm not AWARE of any differences...

re: Forum Merge

PS2 and Wii versions have some extra content, but I don't think it's enough to justify leaving all the forums separate. I support this idea.

re: Forum Merge

Oops, I forgot about Seperate Ways.

That and the lazer gun thingy. But honestly, that shouldn't be a problem. There's nothing the Gamecube version has that isn't in the other versions, right?

re: Forum Merge

Only just noticed this thread but yeah the PS2 version has an extra mini-scenario called "Seperate Ways" that the GameCube version doesn't have.

Nope, the only thing that the GameCube has over the PS2 version is that the bonus outfits can be seen in the cutscenes whereas in the PS2 version Leon and Ashley would be seen wearing the default outfits regardless of what outfits you had selected.

re: Forum Merge

Yeah I remember reading about it, found this on a site that is pretty much says the same as what I had read a while back:

quote residentevil.wikia.com
The PlayStation 2 version uses pre-rendered FMVs recorded from the GameCube version instead of real-time footage for cutscenes, though these FMVs have comparable graphical quality to the rest of the game.
Would explain it, as they would have only used one set of pre-rendered videos from the GameCube version - the ones with the default outfits.

Also this pretty much sums up the differences:

quote residentevil.wikia.com
Exclusive content

To compensate for the late release, Capcom added new content made specifically for the PlayStation 2 release and later the Wii and PC versions.

* Separate Ways (The Another Order in Japan), a five chapter minigame which revolves around Ada Wong's involvement in Resident Evil 4, and her connection to Albert Wesker, a former member of the Raccoon City S.T.A.R.S. squad, who is now attempting to revive Umbrella. During the minigame, the player can use two exclusive weapons (a pump-action shotgun and a bowgun with explosive arrows).

* Ada's Report, a five-part documentary, which analyzes Ada's relationship with a particular character and their role in the plot. One unlocks portions of the documentary as they progress through the Separate Ways minigame.

* New costume set, which portrays Leon as a 1930s Mobster, and puts Ashley in an indestructible suit of armor. If equipped while Leon is in his mobster costume, the Chicago Typewriter turns into the 1928 model, with a drum magazine as opposed to the regular box magazine. In addition to the Mobster and Knight Outfits Leon can be equipped with a Raccoon City Police Uniform.

* P.R.L. 412 (Plaga Removal Laser), a laser gun which can be used to instantly destroy enemies. Unlocked by beating the Professional difficulty setting.

* Movie Browser, a feature that allows the player to view cutscenes from the both Separate Ways and the main game. The feature is unlocked after a player beats the game.

* Amateur mode, an easier difficulty setting which is exclusive to the Japanese and the Spanish version.

* The PlayStation 2 version also offers support for widescreen televisions.
