@mclaren

Start game like normal, and then press start (or possibly A or X) on second pad.

Seems very awkward, but that is the way Capcom chose to do it.

Thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed playing this game. My hubby and I played it as a two player and we were totally addicted. I could play this through again and plan too. We have now borrowed Res 4 on the Wii to see how that fares.

Everyone here makes good points, but quite simply Resident Evil 5 is a great game and shoud be bought by all to ensure another will emerge. I played it and loved it. True, Resident Evil 4 was freakin amazing, but give this game its dues it’s not bad either. Peace out. Enjoy the game all you game freaks. PS3 rules, 360 good also.

It was the same in Resi 4, head shots have % chance of a critical shot, you can upgrade this percentage. It adds to the tension somewhat otherwise the regular zombies would be very easy to take down.

That’s what annoyed me too Steve! When my mate and I tried the demo in Co-Op, we both lined up a shot on a ‘Zombie’ and both hit him in the face at the same time. He stood up and carried on!! Huh?! Headshots don’t seem to mean sh!t in RE5!

I don’t think ammo conservation is a problem, since even when you do score a head shot the zombie doesn’t die.

Ok, the last comment was littered with typing errors and i accidentally sent it before i’d finished.

To the other Rob, he must have played it right through in order to discuss Mercenaries in such detail. Good review.

Can’t wait to see what Capcom do with possible DLCs

So far, played on my own, not the most impressed, still good.
PLayed with friends, amazing.

A must buy for anyone of Resi4, definately worth it.

A very good review. I am about halfway through so far and although I am enjoying it, I’m not blown away like I was with Resi 4 (also one of my favourite games). A big problem I feel is that I am playing it on co-op. In co-op at medium difficulty it’s very easy; we’ve only died a few times each so far. Only a few times have I felt that sheer panic that Resi 4 induced around every corner, where there was no one to come to your aid. I agree with the guy above; there is way too much ammo. This is the problem for me so far, the atmosphere is just a little flat, the environments and enemies jsut aren’t quite creepy enough. The control system I feel is perfect for inducing panic though, it doesn’t feel clunky at all after a few levels. Perhaps I will feel differently playing it on a higher difficulty.
That said it is a top-notch adventure. The graphics are simply stunning, particularly the light effects and character models. Some of the set-pieces are thrilling and the story-line is fun. It’s very idiosyncratic; nothing else plays like Resi, besides I don’t want another Left 4 Dead. I’m sure I’ll have a blast playing mercenaries too if it’s anything like Resi 4. I’d also give it an 8/10.

Rob i tihink is a action survival horror, it is a lot of action, sure, but is also survival horror, take for instance you cant shoot and run,like in RE4,that makes you sometimes been trap in a corner trying to dish some pain, the survival part is diferent thats all. , and the scare tactis are also different, so i dont what is all the fuss about, i really like the game like a liked RE4.

The only reason I ask is that the review seems to differ significantly from my own experiences of the game and every other review I have read. For example, RE5 is by no means an example of ’survival horror’, the game is action through and through and one of the greatest criticisms of this game is the fact that ammo is far too abundant. One of the great things about all the other numbers RE games is the scarcity of ammo and the strategies you need to use to survive. RE5 litters each level with barrels full of ammo. I certainly never had a ‘personal ammo crisis’. The 8 out 10 is dead on in my opinion but just didn’t think the review itself critiqued the full game very well.

I think it’s pretty clear that he completed the game, Rob.

Did you read the review beyond it’s intial paragraphs? Comment certainly doesn’t read like it.

By: Rob

Just a quick question – did the reviewer play this game beyond the initial stages? Review certainly doesn’t read like it.
