No Split screen co-op! Gutted.
What about those of us who have real friends?

I really like playing the game despite the lack of AI intelligence or common sense, Definitely worth having a friend around to play it with though.

I never got RE5 but now I kinda want to, if I had enough cash. It seems like a really enjoyable and fun action horror game.

Coming from a long time fan of the series i would say this is a great game. Besides the little annoying stuff like Sheva’s AI and the fact that Jill was obviously the bird lady from the beginning. Its good as a series game and on its own. You definitely have to play with a friend to get the full experience. It awesome that Chris is back and buffer then ever, but sucks that Wesker is finally out of the story. It would have been nice to see another “tyrant” but you cant get everything. Those Emblems were a bitch to find, but gave you something to do. I liked Re 4’s mercenaries a little more. Overall this is a very beautiful game and is worth the money. i wish the Usa collectors edition came with the same stuff as the japan one, i would recommend it to others.

I love RE5 (I’ve beaten it 3 times already), it’s a freakin gorgeous game and the co-op experience is one of a kind. The ending was disappointing to me though.

@Naoto G.

I really liked it. As someone else in another review said “It adds realism to it; you don’t pause to stop the action”. It goes hand in hand in my opinion with stopping and shooting. It adds a lot of tension, and when you master it, you’ll be combining, switching, and managing no problem. The key is to minimizing what you start with (restrict to 2 guns, upgrade their capacity a lot to prevent some slots holding ammo).

Forgot to add, I did like the limited inventory system. Felt a little old school and having the inventory open up in real time made the game more intense.

I thought the presentation was at least a 9.5, but thats just my opinion.

Both are excellent reviews, but I am going to have to favor with Chris, but that is probably because I have not has as bad luck as other people with the AI. We also cannot forget about the Versus DLC which will be coming later on…

@Tim
I just wanted Mercenaries, it’s great
I’m lucky to have a friend who doesn’t suck at games, have you tried playing online with someone random? They’re worse than the AI.

@ Cloud

Playing through all 6 chapters with that dolt is a taxing experience, haha. You’re a lucky man

@Tim
Well i only played chapters 4 and 5 single player, and they seemed to be okay.
