Resident Evil 5 Preview

Alright so I got this game at a Blockbuster's out of business sale. This post is completely useless except for some foreshadow: the game sucks. I have been known to jump the gun on games, but I understand that games tend to start out slowly. This game is different, the shooting mechanics are all screwed up. I hated Fallout 3 because of VATs but I could at least play the game how I wanted; I had a love/hate relationship with Uncharted 1 but hated it because the shooting was bizarre (the enemies could dodge point blank bullets!), but again, at least I could play how I wanted. This game is completely different. I can't play how I want. Why? Well.........I CAN'T KILL 10 zombies, a sub-boss, and a boss at the same time if:
A) Headshots don't kill them, hence I waste the 10 ammo rounds I get
[MOST IMPORTANTLY] B) I HAVE TO STAND STILL TO SHOOT! WTF?!
C) My guy moves slower than a dead person (pun intended)

Review, or more like slaughter, to come soon (if I can bear to play this game again).

  1. You picked it up anyway after I told you you can't move and shoot? In case you didn't notice, I gave this game the Fable 2 award for worst sequel of the year.

  2. I had it before you told me; when I got home it was one of the super cheap blockbuster games.
