Uncategorised L4D ripping off crimson heads?

Well, I think they used a Bandersnatch character model for his mutated form. For his battleready form he was just a black tyrant.

Yeppers. For his mutated form they should have come up with a new mutation, not slap the Bandersnatch model on him and say "It's Tyrant Stage 2!"

Come on Capcom. We diehard Resi fans know a Bandersnatch when we see one. lol

Well, its much too large to be a Bandersnatch, but what they did, was blow up the model, and gave it a new skin.

I know itd be cool to see him though. does Thanatose remind you of a really big, really tough Bandersnatch?

I'm not quite sure what that means

Well it ripped off the premise, 4 player co-op, zombie invasion. ect. ect.

Zombie shooter games have existing years before the Resident Evil series and will continue to exist way after, so it doesn't rip off Resi just for having a zombie invasion in it. Resident Evil may be the biggest selling survival horror series of all time but it's not the instant go-to for zombie game ideas for developers. Lickers aren't the same as Smokers - I see the long-tongue resemblance but they're completely different zombies. Same with Crimson Heads and Witches - completely different. The co-op is also very different, the entire feel of the game is different. I think, aside from having undead as enemies and having the option to have 4 players, they're completely different game franchises altogether!!

I agree. But do you agree that Tyrant- 002 would kill a Tank?

He is missing an arm, and he waves a really big one around like a weapon. just like a bandersnatch.
