Biohazard 5

Short review Is it a bad game, no. Is it disappointing to fans, yes. I fortunately wasn't a fan, and found this game to be loads of fun. I have put in a lot of time playing through the story, mainly just for farming loot. Once you get an fully upgraded Magnum with unlimited ammo, then the game is a breeze. That gun kills every thing. And you can also give Sheva the Desert Eagle. While it is fun playing with these weapons, it does ruin any sense of threat or difficulty. And I never had any problem with the partner's A.I., lucky for me I guess. There are plenty of unlocks to be had, and collectors items to be found, so it adds to the replay value. Of course there is the online co-op, I've never tried it. And lastly the mercenaries mode, pretty much just a horde mode type game-play, it's still fun.

The game is really goofy and over the top, but the game play is fun, and it's fun to watch ( Xcal and Waldo-dude). There are plenty of oh sh-t! moments during combat. It isn't all that bad, surely not as bad as RE6 anyways. I like it, that's all I have to say.

Chris need more protein.

Having just completed R.E 5, I have to admit to feeling somewhat disappointed. As a HUGE fan of R.E 4, my expectations were set quite high. After all, Resident Evil 4 was ground breaking stuff. Sadly, I don't feel this sequel delivers.

The plus points are fairly obvious - huge similarities in terms of game-play, controls and the overall feel of it, just like R.E 4. Alongside stunning graphics.

The minus points were, in comparison to 4, 5 only lasted approximately 10-12 hours for the main story whilst 4 lasted about 20+ hours. The depth of complexity the former title had was missing (the many cut scenes requiring quick reactions, the deeper story line, the riddles, puzzles and various locations). Granted, some of these featured, but they were scarce.

So in closing, 5 is a good game. A very good game. Nicely done, and enjoyable enough. But, it's not a truly great game in terms of a follow up to 4. It was promising, and something we fans eagerly waited for. But Resident Evil 4 STILL reigns supreme. R.E 4 - 10/10. R.E 5 - 7/10

I had been wondering whether to buy this game since mid March, and I pretty much forgot about it after it first came out. Then I was shopping the other day and was looking for some new games when I came across it again. I decided to buy it and I was quite surprised at how impressive it was overall. The graphics are especially beautiful and near perfect, and the storyline, though pretty much the same as RE4, is still great. I have no problems with the new game style except that I feel they should have done a different type of storyline, not one that was obviously copying RE4, which was pretty much the best game I have ever played on PS2. Still, apart from that, I have no other faults to pick with this game. Seeing Chris and Jill again, and also Wesker, made the game even better for me. Sheva, the new character, is also great, I took a liking to her almost at once. Seeing Chris and Jill, and Chris and Wesker together in a new game is brilliant and I praise the makers of the game for doing this for us. The enemies, boss enemies and locations in this game are also great fun. I can't really say that there is a part of this game I didn't enjoy. The only thing I would like to say in closing is that I hope the next game (if there is one) chooses a completely different type of story, without the Las Plagas. I would really like to keep the new game engine though, since I really enjoy it. 8/10

the original resident evil was a huge classic when it came out but after multiple sequels definitely in need of a revamp and then came along the game that would revolutionize the industry RE4 and it was awesome to say the least but 5 years later we have RE5 and its not quite as good but its still a total blast to play and shows its worthy to have a spot in my library of games. Story- the game has a decent story but its nothing jaw dropping. one part that really ruined some of it for me is the "big twist" which was absolutely horibble due to its presentation but it wraps everything up well. Graphics- this is the prettiest game I've ever seen from the beautiful to texture work to every detail capcom managed to get in there this game looks awesome but the animations could use some work as they quickly grow stale but that wont stop you from gawking at this game. Gameplay- this is gonna be different for everybody but in my opinion the controls aren't very well done in this game capcom deliberately did the controls the way they did but moving and shooting doest take all the tension away from the game but it wasn't a handicap i dint get used to in around 10 mins or so. melee attacks are awesome and the game will keep u enjoying yourself. plus co op is just the best simply put next to left 4 dead and even then its pretty close enjoyment- this game has replay in mind and with the best pacing in video gaming ever in my opinion u wont get tired of it and then there's is planty to unlock and keep you comin for more and even if you get tired of that you have the surprisingly addictive mercenaries mode to keep you coming back believe me you wont be getting bored of this one for awhile. overall- this game isn't as good as RE4 but it still is one of the best on the market if you can get over a few minor blemishes like the controls and bland story 9/10

i think this game is absolutely excellent i think its the best resident evil game so far plus they brought back Chris red-field and Jill valentine they are my favourite resident evil characters apart from Leon s Kennedy he was brilliant in resident evil 4 game, plus the camera views are better and easier than the previous resident evil games plus you get better warnings when a bad guy turns up because you'll see straight ahead not on different part of the rooms walls ha ha... anyway the graphics are much better for resident evil 4 and 5 plus i love the music for those games it's really good as well plus it suit's it as well ha ha... all I'm saying is hopefully the Japanese creators are going to continue on making more resident evil games...
