Resident Evil 5

Post by gargoyle67 »

Just started playing this, Pretty good stuff so far, although I have noticed in games lately the amount of cut scenes has gone up, After the intro cut scene You only have to walk 2 paces at the start and your right into a cut scene after that open a door and your in another one :lol: then another and so on. It does get a bit annoying, I'm all for story lines but it's a bit OTT.

Nobody listened 10 years ago when I was bitching about cut scenes. Now look where it's got us. :(

If it's not up to RE4 standards or better, I won't bother. Keep us posted. :D

Chris has an unrealistic huge biceps and triceps! I really have mixed feelings about RE5 but I'll see myself when I get mine. Gianni will sort me out as the German version will be cut and censored - bloody politicians! :evil:

I think I'm going to wait until it gets cheaper. I loved RE4 and played it to death, but the demo of this left me a bit unimpressed. :(

Been playing for a couple of hours now....And I've gota say it does feel same old same old, The levels feel very constricting (very narrow streets) e.g box levels you start at the bottom and work your way to the top picking up bits around the edges, R4 felt a bigger where in you had a little more roaming outside room, R4 had bags of atmosphere R5 really doesn't come close in this area. That being said R5 has great graphics and the action is top notch I'll keep you updated as I play some more.

We should have a rule like NTSC-UK where first play threads started before the release date have to include a picture of the box. Garg would be very quiet :awe:

My limited edition with chainsaw USB key is in the post 8-)

Lol no, In the good old days of the 64\Amiga\ST\ I still never used cheats, Can't really see the point you may as well watch a demo if you take the challenge out of a game :lol: .
