    I bought this game out of nostalgia for the original Resident Evil games. I miss the more openness of the older games, but otherwise this is a good addition to the series.

    Resident Evil 5 features a great action story which is different from the original RE series elements we have grown up with. The two player co-op can be done locally or online - which is very fun.

    This is a fun game to play through with a friend in co op, playing solo is meh at best, but if you're a resident evil fan I'd recommend you'd play it, 20 with all dlc is a good deal

    If you don't own this game like me and have been wanting to pick it up. Now's the time to get it with all of its DLC and with a better framerate and resolution for only $20.

    I loved this game on PS3. Had a blast playing co-op with my buddies as I made my way to the platinum. Love it again on PS4 and am inching my way towards another Platinum......

    Action zombies, but fun. Good price at $19.99, but Best Buy was running a special where you could get parts 5 and 6 for $14.99, but I got it cheaper thanks to my Gamers Club.

    Great Co-op game!

    Resident Evil 5 is primarily focused on co-op action, and no one should go in expecting a horror game. However, what you should expect is an excellent action game with outstanding combat and great overall design. Co-op is where the game truly shines, but I would also like to note that the single-player is also very enjoyable from the beginning to end. The AI cannot match having another person playing with you, but I think that's a bit of an unreasonable expectation, and for what it is and what it's meant to do, I think the AI does it's job well enough, and that playing solo can be alot of fun, just not as much so as co-op.

    What can I say. This is just a port of RE5 to the ps4. Nothing new, textures aren't that fantastic. Though good value and comes with all DLC. New trophies gave me the want to replay it again,

    I played it a lot on my old xbox 360 and especially the coop option is a great addition to the franchise in my opinion! The graphics here are better and running on 60fps!

    Originally played this for last consoles. It has improved graphics as well as fps. It's definitely a game anyone should buy, especially if co-op games are your favorite!

    Resident Evil 5 for PS3 was awesome and at 11.99 with the gamers card it was foolish not to get this for PS4. Its great as my friend and I play this for hours and hours.

    A graphically polished update to a rather divisive entry in the RE franchise. Gameplay remains the same (for better or worse), but it's the best way to play the game if you haven't so far.

    Remaster is wonderful, It's worth the double dip. Co-op has a little wonkiness to the interface, but its worth the time invested to play with a friend. Highly Recommend.

    Love the HD version on PS4. It includes all the DLC for a great price. If you didn't play this on the PS3 I would recommend to get it now. It's mixes action and horror.

    Far better than part 6 but not as good as 4, Resident Evil 5 is in the middle. A little too much action and not enough horror. Still, at a discount price it's hard not to give it a try.

    pretty much the same game. I was disappointed that they left the partner AI unchanged. Play with a real person if you can. Sheva is still suicidal and brain dead on the PS4 version.

    I love this game. I have the original one for the PS3 so when they made a remake for the PS4 i just had to buy it and for the price it's definitely worth it.
