He means that the cart is only RE4. 5 and 6 are digital download codes.

"Only" the best as in it's another one of those cop-out physical editions where one piece (RE4, the best RE) is on the cart and the rest of the package is offered as downloads. Honestly don't know why there isn't more pushback against this practice, because it seems really dumb. CDPR, at least, has the decency to put all of Switcher on the cart itself.

It’s cheaper and official. Of course it doesn’t have sticks but I personally don’t want sticks on a controller that’s trying to be an SNES one.

Capcom is putting everything on the cart for the Mega Man Z collection so maybe they’re learning.

This game has been $5 on Steam and PS4. The port added a loading screen when entering levels because version 1.0 had all sorts of slowdown just popping in.

5 and 6 are both worth at least 1 play each but not sure I'd want to go back to them again like with 4.

5 is stupid good in coop, but IMO don't bother if you're going to play with AI.

6 I couldn't get in to after loving the hell out of 5.

4 Is Good.

oh i agree on that but dont agree on the chore parts. the end run of 5 is still an all timer imo.

i did enjoy 6 more on my 2nd playthrough when i did the chapters in chronological order most tho, despite the clashing gameplay switch ups.

Once you really get a grip on the core game mechanics the Mercs mode in 6 is actually pretty fun.

There’s no saving that main campaign though

It might be better than Code Veronica. Maybe.

But I doubt it.

And it's certainly not as good as 7.

Fine print says 4 per account for the SNES controllers. But yeah, get your point.

I feel the complete opposite. 5 feels plodding and tedious when you have to manage your partner and their inventory the whole game. 6 removes this headache completely and offers much more variety in its combat and its campaign scenarios.

Everything up to code veronica is unplayable today. poo poo like fixed camera angles and tank controls had their place, but they should have been dropped as soon as analogue controls became standard

5’s inventory blows. Slows the game down.

RE2 Remake looks amazing on Xbox and I’m excited for the new one.

When I see a bunch of posts about whether 4, 5 or 6 are the best I immediately start typing about how *clearly* Final Fantasy 6 is the pinnacle of the franchise and...

...oh. Resident Evil? Those games are cool too I guess.

I played RE2 for the first time last year and it's extremely playable today, I had a blast with it. RE3 is also still good although I didn't enjoy it as much. The original is pretty rough though, hard to justify when REmake exists.

Resident Evil 5 played co-op is legitimately as good of a game as RE4, but it's strengths are really different despite how superficially similar it looks.

Anyway those are my hot takes, hope you're all having a good evening
