Resident Evil 5

[haloOfTheSun]

I would say the first RE the first time played is a little scary and pretty suspenseful. Mainly because you knew nothing about the plot, only that something crazy is going on.

Then again, the first time I played it I was also like 12 or something.

I get kinda freaked out when I turn a corner and there is a zombie in my face.

I played the original RE when I was like five...it scared the hell out of me!
And the my brother and his stupid friend made me watch them play it when it was really late at night.

The game came out some days ago (March 12?), I was sorta expecting this a bit to be revived? I just got hook up to it this weekend in a way @__@ (Co-Op is just awesome!)

Yeah, it's pretty amazing. I'm almost at the end, but I had to stop playing because I have too much work to do.


But yeah. Thread is alive and should be...

I heard the game is more like a generic run and gun monster shooter than a survival horror, and not very scary.

I heard that people like to make up negative comments about games that aren't even released yet.

Incidentally, he is correct. The game isn't very scary, or even that suspenseful. The older ones were suspenseful because slow moving zombies are just kind of ... creepier than fast ones. Fast moving zombies really just make me think "oh, they're humans, but mad at me." When they were zombies, it was like "these are undead creatures that want to eat me."

So yeah, kind of suspenseful, I guess, but not that scary. Really, it might as well be a first person shooter, but it's not, because first person shooters have WAAAYYYY better controls.

But it's still a gorgeous game, and it's still a fantastic play experience. And co-op is amazing.

I can't wait to play this game... 20 years from now, when I can get an Xbox 360 and resi5 for 8$ in some kind of retro bargain bin. I'm so damn poor...

As soon as [spoiler]the goddamn ganados started throwing flashbangs and using assault rifles[/spoiler], it was no longer a Resident Evil game to me.

[Moss.]

That's where I stopped playing...

The cover system was tacked on and shitty as well, I mean, really?  Not being able to move in cover?  I have to stand up and get shot to move, then get back in cover?  Bullshit.
