Best Resident Evil Game Yet!!!!
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I'm an avid Resident Evil Fan/Player and I have to say this is the best RE I have played yet! The graphics are great...there are intense scenes of action and horror...and the game kept me glued to the screen. I couldn't put the controller down. The only thing about the game I did not like was the fact that you could not run and shoot. But that's about it. My advice is to search high and low and KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN!

Good Game to Have in Your Collection

I played this game through the campaign with my boyfriend and it was incredibly fun. The game is a good kind of challenging in the beginning, as you have to conserve ammo and medicine. Later, you can upgrade weapons to have unlimited ammo and play the game like an arcade game. Very fun, decent story, fun boss battles.

Not RE 4 but still a success

The game is really fun and interesting story once again. It does not compare to RE 4 that I played on the Wii but its still very fun. The aiming is not hard and the standing and shooting is just another challenge that I think is fun. The AI is not great but pretty good. Much better and way more fun when you play with someone else.

I love zombie-shooting games to begin with - add that with my affinity for the entire Resident Evil plot makes this game a winner! Its an easy game to play. Having the option to choose from so many weapons (that you can upgrade in so many ways) is my favorite part about the game. I highly recommend this to people who love zombie-shooting games!

RE5 Demo, thats 4 out of 5 for the demo
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
For one the demo is only avalible so you didn't get the full game from the PS Store and two the demo has some bugs thats the point of getting a demo out before the whole game, so they can fix them. You and a few others are gonna be the only ones giving it a score like that, see if any critic will be so harsh. And the COD games are great too, oh thats CallOfDuty if ya didn't know. Two different games FPS and Suvival Horror, can't you recomend a game of the same genre or maybe all you play is FPS. I play and love almost all games. Anyway RE5 as a demo, I can see just like RE4 (Game of the Year) voted best Suvival Horror of all time, with updated graphics and physic. Plus online co-op campaigne. To quote X-PLAYs Adam "if RE4 was re-released next-gen, thats after PS3 and 360, we would still buy it. Hit me up PSN ID GranTurismoKing and for 360 FPSking.

Download the demo from the Playstation store or XBOX Live. The demo is great and gives you a chance to play through two levels. The game has great graphics and great action so far. This will be a must have, I highly recommend to pre-order this game.

This is my first time playing any RE game. RE5 is really fun because of its innovative coop mode. It's cool that anyone can join your game as a partner.
Other than that, you can easily lose yourself to the gameplay.

This is the best Resident Evil Game so far, I just recently purchased a playstation 3 along with 3 GREAT games (Resident evil 5, metal gear 4, mlb the show 09). Guess which one im ADDICTED to? I really love the co op online play it makes the game much more interesting along with the superior graphics. Now you dont have to rely on the computer and its crummy mistakes, you can actually cruise through the game with a friend with the same or similar skills, which I think is cool and it's also a first in the resident evil series. I am a long time resident evil fan from all the way down to the first resident evil and Ive completed them all, so fyi GET THIS GAME trust you wont be disappointed.. once you get used to the controls it will be zombie slaying time!

Co-op Finally Done Right!!!!!!!
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This games is a masterpiece from start to finish! Let me first off say that for those that are complaining about the controls, are not true RE fans, as this is what makes the game! Many of the same features in past RE games carry over, but the co-op is really what makes RE5 the best in the franchise! Each time you start the game, you have the abilty to play solo, with an invited friend, or allow anyone to join the game! When playing solo, you still have both characters there, but be weary of giving Shiva your favorite gun. She is a bit liberal with the amo, and the health. Also, they just released a $4.99 add-on that allows you to play VS against 3 other people in a death-match style game. Well worth the $$, but it should have been included.

Best heart pounding game

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Resident Evil 5 is one of the hart pounding games i have played. I love how the graphics have improved since the first Resident Evil. I recommend playing it at night and with some good head sets. What i don't like about this game is that many of the game players out there don't have it. Don't be one of them and get into the Resident Evil mania.

I have been playing the demo non stop on my PS-3 all week. Im an old school RE fan who lost interest with part 4, but boy have things completely changed for the best. You can play in single story mode, Co-Op offline, or online with others which I love the most since I get to use my PS-3 headset. This game is totally awesome on my Sony 52inch LCD, and the graphics are mind numbingly good. I would definately recommend this game to anyone accept anyone under 18 lol. If you have a headset, and want to get down on some RE 5, then hit me up under schematics1 this fri, or sat.

Great action game

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Resident Evil games were known for being genuinely scary. This game is more action driven. I never once feared for my own safety. This game does not set the mood of fear like the older games did.
That being said, this is a fun game. It is a co-op zombie shooting game. It can be played by yourself, and the AI companion is pretty suitable. The AI can be annoying at times, but she will never get in your way and you can still easily beat the game.
Try to find the gold version as that contains a lot of the dlc content.

Best resident evil ever!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This game i Think is the best resident evil so far! The AI are faster, smarter, and can do everything a human can do but as a zombie! As a little kid(which hasn't been long, Im 14) ive loved this game series cause it has everything survival horror gamers want
The only drawback is when you are surrounded by enemies you have to run, turn around, aim, and then shoot. But who really cares if your a diehard horror game player. Anyone will love this game!

"you can't run and fire"
Kidding right? It's RE. It comes with the name. Running + Fire =/= Resident Evil.
Now for my review
The game demo was fantastic. The single player is a blast. Add in Co-Op, and you will have an incredible time.
Downfall would be the split screen in co-op. I feel that they could have implemented it better, and not wasting part of the screen with black background just to make it look different from every other split screen.

Exceeded My Expectations
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I played the demo before it came out and was fairly impressed with it but didn't like the fact that you have to stop cold while you shoot at the bad guys. After I bought the game, that was soon forgotten as I got used stopping & shooting-got comfortable with it. This game exceeded my expectations as I found myself having a hard time putting it down. The storyline will captivate you in a way that you can't wait to see what lies next. The inventory management design is a solid plus similar to "Dead Space", they do share a lot of things in common. The graphics are very nice but at times they look unpolished but you won't notice it for the most part. This game reminds me of "Dark Sector" in a lot of ways due to the over the shoulder camera angle but only a lot better. The camera angles can be confusing at times that you don't know where the enemy is when you turn. Still highly recommended but I was a bit skeptical at first, oh and before I forget they added some "Uncharted" puzzles/problem solving roadblocks which I think is a nice touch.
