Customer Review: Really Disappointing ...wait till the bargain bin
Summary: 2 Stars
This game was very disappointing!!!! I played the crap out of the Resident Evil 4 and loved the game. The 4th one was scary and a very engrossing single player. NOT THIS ONE!!! Resident Evil 5 is primarily a Co-op experience. To really have some sort of fun is to have a friend to play with online or offline. Though, when you play the game with some one its just not satisfying. Resident Evil games are built on tension with the feeling, AM I REALLY GOING TO SURVIVE THIS GAME? With some one else playing with you, it completely ruins any tension, NOT UNLESS this is the first time your playing a Resident Evil game.
The story is meh. Though, after playing Uncharted 2, all game stories seem sub par. Though this story is b-movie material and its kind of predictable. The dialogue is garbage. Again, when your playing co-op the story really takes a back seat because face it, when you play co-op its all about the thrills and moving to the next level. Resident Evil is a heavy story based game. They slacked in this one. They DO create thrilling co-op thrills though, I will give it that.
The graphics are great, no complaint there. The game play is the EXACT same thing as RE4. You have an inventory where you can only fit so much of your gear into. Its stop and shoot game play like all resident evil games. Though, this game is very easy, even on its normal setting. I mean, this game is made me laugh. Your not fighting zombies but these infected african villagers, that are like zombies. There exactly like the Las Plagos from the 4th one. There slow but gain you in numbers, but easy to kill. Since when do zombies or infected drive motorcycles and whip you with chains while doing so??? See, what I'm saying? Since when do you laugh in a RE game?
I barely had the motivation to beat this game. I started the game with a friend and got half way through it until i switched and played it on my own. Again, playing on my own was a little more satisfying, but then you have to take care of Shiva. Go heal her when shes getting her butt kicked, and look back to make sure shes following you. The AI for her is dumb.
I would highly recommend this game when it reduces in price. As a RE fan, this is very disappointing. It let me down big time. RE games are single player experiences. Co-op works fine and is fun, but its not a RE game, its an action game with the RE title!! If you really want scares, and an atmosphere that make you wet your pants, pick up Deadspace. Its the NEW best thing.
Customer Review: Too much trouble
Summary: 3 Stars
While I've enjoyed other games in the Resident Evil series, this one simply require too many awkward button combos and has far too many cut scenes. The offline co-op was awkward and frustrating.
I was also surprised that the graphics weren't better considering it's PS3. Heck, the graphics on "Little Big Planet" are better than these!
Customer Review: Fun factors far outweigh the bad
Summary: 4 Stars
Yea, there are some annoying things, but the fun far outweighs thems. One big plus is that all of your stuff from one difficulty level transferes to the more diffucult level. So you beat the game on amature mode, and the weapons and goodies transfere to vetran level and then to profesional level. Once you fully upgrade a weapon, you can make it have unlimited ammo. The annoying parts are when you have a high combo on mercenaries and a zombie puts you in a full-nelson. Probably the most annoying thing in video game history is that an enemy hits hard on mercenaries and enstead of taking a first aid spray, you have to rapidly hit o to pull yourself together.
I have beaten every aspect of this game, but it's one of those games that makes me want to play it again from time to time.
Customer Review: Captures the Resident Evil Feel
Summary: 4 Stars
this game really captures the resident evil feel. from shooting zombies to dying by the hands of a chainsaw weilding zombie this game offers amazing video game quality. heck dyings fun sometimes. i try to let every different zombie i meet kill me at least once to see how i die. what i mean is, if u die by a chainsaw weilding zombie he will cut ur throat up with his chainsaw as ur blood shoots out of u. ur partner ai can be a little annoying and u cant run-n-gun. u have to stand still to shoot which makes the game difficult. thats why i gave the game 4 out of 5 stars.
