Biohazard 5

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

First game I played.

• Positives

Chris is awesome Great graphics Super challenging Awesome bosses

• Cons

AI To much action Needs to be in the dark more

The Resident Evil/Biohazard games are some of the best experiences a player can have. You're constantly looking over your shoulder to see if there's something behind you and not looking forward to going forward because you just know some maniacal monster wielding a chainsaw is coming to get you.

A few years after the fall of the umbrella corporation, The leftover biological weapons that the corporation created have wound up in the hands of Terrorist organizations.The BSAA (Bio-Security Assessment Alliance.) is formed to deal with this new threat. BSAA Agent Chris Redfield is tasked with going to West Africa to track down a man named Ricardo Irving, with the help of fellow BSAA agent, Sheva Alomar. When they arrive at the Village of Kijuju, Something goes horribly wrong - the villagers begin attacking the agents, and pretty soon, biological monsters join in. Also, Chris Redfield's long lost friend, Jill Valentine, might still be alive.

Where the first few games took place in dark, creepy, spooky environments, this game takes a more grittier approach - in a 3rd world country. and while some may think that it's not as scary as it looks, it's definitely not a place you want to be. Considering how West Africa had an Ebola crisis recently and every form of communicable disease will form in a poverty-stricken village like Kijuju. I find that to be almost as scary, if not scarier, than the dark, spooky mansions the previous games took place.

Also...when this game's trailer debuted back in '07, Almost immediately, people began accusing the game of being 'racist' due to the fact that it showed a white American guy killing African people who were infected by the biological weapons. But the game wasn't even close to racist. Even voice actress Karen Dyer, who gives Sheva her voice, said "This game is not racist, because if it were, I would not be doing it."

I recently picked up the re-release version of this game, which isn't much different than the 360/ps3 versions, other than the faces are more detailed, and the framerate is much more smooth. It also includes more stuff to do, so for $25 it's worth the purchase.

I never played any resident evil game because i never been interested in any zombie movie or plot but definitely i have been curious about Resident evil since it have a lot of fans. So i began to play Resident Evil 5 the visuals really impressed me, and i mean the movements, distorsion, dust, details etc. but to be honest i didn't like at all the gameplay in the beginning. After finishing one time i figure that Resident evil 5 is made that way because the creators want to maintain a tactic gameplay, i like Resident evil 5 a lot because you have to think what to do and where to go before all zombies are in your back. The plot is real interesting is one of the best i have seen in PS3 or Xbox360 games because the plot is detailed and argument very well all characters and story maybe the only i dislike in the plot is that Chris and Sheva (the protagonists) don't get too well because both are very serious. Cutscenes are another great part of resident evil 5 the cut-scenes have been done extremely well, cut-scenes are in real time but they aren't in full screen ( disappointing ). Action is intense and add a lot of fear and make player think what will happen next, bosses are simply amazing and extremely fun to play i know a lot of resident evil fans dislike all the action in Resident evil 5 arguing that resident evil will transform into an action game instead of horror; but for me the action in Resident evil 5 leave me more tense and anxious to see what next in the game.

GOOD -Stunning Graphics; distorsion, details, human movement, environments. -Amazing gameplay: very tactical and intuitive -Accion and Horror; at hand one to another can be an extremely good mix -Co op: at last some game that can be played both ONLINE & OFFLINE -Plot: complex and intriguing -Great bosses

BAD -Sometimes i wish Sheva and Chris don't was partners, as they can be friends. -Sometimes the IA parter can be frustrating -Cutscens should be fullscreen

9.3 out of 10
