Resident Evil 5
- Thread starter WT SAVAGE

As the original "fixed camera, clunky controls, backtrack puzzling" genre that it was, yes. I think RE has evolved very well over the years.
I agree with that (mostly), but it took 4 GTA's before anyone could even come close to it, and technically speaking there would be no Saints Row if it weren't for GTA in the first place.
Really? Do I need to answer that? Show me any game before GTA 3 that could even touch it. Most "sandbox" games back then were open cities, but you couldn't leave a car. And frankly, Rockstar had already been making incredible open world sandbox titles with GTA on the PC.
When things like Saints Row or Crackdown come out, people immediately compare it to GTA. Micheal Jordan didn't invent basketball, but he came in, dominated, and innovated the sport so much that to this day people are still comparing players to him.

Yes you do. What genre did the GTA series create? These are still sandbox games no matter how you slice it.
Adding a new feature like getting out of a car, or raping a hooker, isn't creating a new genre--it's still a sandbox title. GTA & Rockstar may have refined or revolutionized the sandbox genre, but they in no way created the genre.
Yeah, but see you said, "GTA invented a whole new genre of video game that didn't exist" (bold and underlined emphasis mine). I'm not saying they haven't done well with refining the genre. They took the ball and ran with it just like Epic took Kill Switch and Winback and came up with Gears.

i played like 10 levels on gta 4 last night, its not bad but i have to smoke a ton of weed just to get interested in it..
unlike vice city or san andreas
that jamaican dude is the man for giving me a gun
cuz getting weapons definitely isnt as easy as fucking up a cop, they pull out on you quiiiick
lol i punched a woman and a bunch of dudes came to her safety.
its alright. i enjoy the driving in the game alot more than i did in san andreas
and nicos a square. he coulda boned that chick in like 20 seconds. talkin about lets go to the carnival. loser. thats why i restarted and saved his cousin instead, if you aint gonna get no ass i mean lets stick to crime.
im just not too interested in russian shit. early 80's yes, early 90s on the west coast sure, but wtf? im not from fucking turkey.

You're being irrational. GTA3 deserved a 10 any way you look at it. I don't know if you're horrible at it and you have your panties in a bunch about the game, or what. I'm still trying to figure out what came before the first GTA's from PC, and exactly what game was out that was anything like GTA3 at the time.
That was a driving game. GTA isn't a driving game. I see what you're saying and I was actually thinkin about that too, but besides the fact that everyone hated that game, if you left your car, essentially you lost. I can't justify comparing a driving game to an open world like GTA.
