Are cut-scenes real-time on engine or pre-rendered?

They're real-time, and more often than not, involve some kind of quick time event.

Was it specifically officially confirmed, or is it just an intelligent guess based on general information available?

pretty much every version of Resident Evil 4 had real-time cut-scenes. and seeing the game is a wopping 15GB. i doubt its pre-rendered xD

also look at Resident Evil Revelations. it originaly came from a handheld. but all the cut-scenes are real-time and updated.

Except for PS2 and PC versions. So if this new re-release is based on the old PC version, only with better textures, then we are screwed. It must be ported for a second time almost from scratch to fix the issue.

Resident Evil Revelations cut-scenes are actually pre-rendered, so you are wrong here =(.
So I get it, it was only a guess on your part about RE4 cut-scenes.

Not only CGI. Check 'em up for yourself again.

its been a while i played this game. so i might just do that. but RE4 will be real-time. specially with the 15GB base game.

Actually 15 GB sounds a little bit too much for a game with no pre-rendered videos, so I fail to see how that proves anything.

check the store page.

I know this iteration is 15 GB.
What I want to say, the fact it is 15 GB is kinda alerting. Kinda too much for a re-release of a game that old. What is there to take so much space? Nowadays the worst offenders to disc space are indeed often pre-rendered cut-scenes.

if you read closely. the game has higher textures, character models and all objects has been updated as well. pre-rendered cut-scenes usually takes less space then actual real-time cut-scenes. and as what i've seen from the the trailer on steam. it looks real-time. its the exact samething they did with the X360 and Ps3 version. those versions had real-time cut-scenes too. because all the custom outfits showed up in all the cut-scenes.

CGI scenes in HD? (very unlikely since I doubt in 2003 they rendered them in anything higher than 480)
Does anyone know how much the PS3 HD version is in size?

[Astro-rjs]

Resident Evil 4 HD is only 3.59 GB on Xbox 360.

lol 2003. the game is from 2005. Resident Evil 4 had only one pre-rendered cut-scene. which was the intro. the rest was all real-time. so that wasn't difficult to update each time it was re-released. i only played the X360 version. it was around 4GB if i remember correctly. but i need to re-download the game to be 100% sure.
