So I'm a huge Fan of the resident evil series in fact its my fav games of all time and I have been waiting for RE5 to come out for over a year and I have to say I’m very disappointed in the direction that capcom took the game. This paragraph from game spot describes what they did pretty well :

"Thirteen years ago, Capcom helped revolutionize the action-adventure world with Resident Evil, a game that would define an entirely new genre dubbed "survival horror." In the years that followed, the series continued to build upon the standards set by the first game, until 2005, when Resident Evil 4 radically departed from its predecessors and broke new ground as a more action-oriented game. Resident Evil 5, the latest offering in the long-running series, expands on the action-heavy formula of its forerunner and is built from the ground up to support cooperative game play. Though it can no longer be considered a survival horror game, Resident Evil 5 manages to retain and effectively translate the most important aspect of that genre--tension--into its new mechanics, crafting a fun, collaborative experience that will keep you on your toes the entire time."

Resident Evil was an awesome game series that was fun, scary and exiting and it involved some fun puzzles and item collection. Capcom turned it into your everyday action game that you shoot anything that moves with puzzles that are meant for a 10 year old.

I’m so harsh on this game because the bar was set really high for this game along the lines it was to be the best game ever. It is a great game and it is fun .... for someone who is new to the series I think any veteran RE fan who has played this game since day one and has beaten all RE games on all systems will enjoy playing it but it's just not the same …...

bring that beat back

RE5 is so shit .... I DLed the demo and played it for 3 mins and it's over.

It's more of a "American" no brainer game.

MGS4 is the shit

I don't see what you guys are complaining about. The series has evolved.

I welcome the change.

Resident Evil 4 was awesome.

I was with the series since I read a review of it in 1996 and the game may have changed, but a lot stayed the same.

Anyone seen the RE1 video of the jap dude who beat it in 11mins without killing anyone? MY GOD!!!!!

I feel it has evolved in the wrong direction, RE4 was great but it was more like the previous titles then this on is like i loved 4. Even Code veronica was good on the DC and resident evil 0 on the game cube. But this is just an action game like too many others RE was different thats what people loved about it.

Did you ever think the reason you aren't scared is you are older?

Resident Evil 4 came out in 2005, this one in 2009.

The game isn't scary, but even the jump from 1 to 2 people weren't complaining it wasn't scary even though 2 was a way better game.

That's an edited video. There's no way to beat the game in 6 or 11 minutes.
