[vet3600]

What is up whit this over the shoulder view now days first gears of war now all the 3 person shooter games are starding to come out on the  over the shoulder ogly ass view

[Semolika]

Jeez I'm tired of people complaining about how long it takes to switch weapons. Just set it to one of the four directional buttons and you can switch on fly.

[BillvallTv]

It's hard to hear what you are saying cuz you talk so fast :(

[mm1aa1x]

have you got the game yet i have it rocks

[skullgamer44]

please watch my review i feel i did quite well oh and comment

[reconleader07]

Not horribly bad game but disappointing for me.

[starpopcorn2]

same

[accounttocomment]

I can barley understand him due to his accent, which Is kinda cool because this must be what english sounds like to someone who doesn't speak it.

[milkandmeat]

can i play this if i've never played a resident evil game before?

[EddieGman1]

the controls will be REALLY awkward for you if you've NEVER experienced RE.

I played co-op with a friend who never played and he got really annoyed by the control scheme. It just takes time to get used to it, but its soo worth it!

[clankbot9]

ya i just recently got the demo and have never owned a RE game so the controls were really ailian but i caught on pretty quick...i guess im just a fast learner.

[thewarlord282]

dude shut up this game is really good one of my favriote the controls r fine i do miss the puzzels though

[Arcticboi1]

This game is the best one

what there a few things i would change but overall i think the hype was good it a good game the buttoms are easy to get and the story great is it the last one there making too i didnt know that but a great game to end on xx

[TCproductions11]

Waa Waa Waa dude stop complainin, and ur playin the damn demo, can afford the real game?

[rex2325]

keep this vid. in britin not america nobody can understand what the fuck your saying cause you talk to fast and mummble don't talk.

[INPUTxUSERNAME]

ummm... wtf did u say u speak really fuckin fast it sounds like u recordd ur voice and pushed fast forward and u shouldnt review games if u suck at them

[Sabartooth101]

dude its not a review if its a demo

[dude2989]

a review of a demo?!

[applepieestgood]

what the hell are you saying.....

[inlandprosound2000]

You should not talk... ever. And you should quit playing video games too. You suck

[THEPRINCEOFALLSAYINS]

lol what ????

[buickgod]

Okay I tried to listen, but seriously, you sound like you have a dick in your mouth.

[Halfbakedx]

I was just about to listen to this review but then i heard his voice... peace

[lulumanmanhihi]

lol

[Ahead818]

wow no wonder you don't like the game you suck at it it's three shots with that pistol to get a kill you took like 4-7 the puzzles were fun and I'm sorry they tormented your little brain. The controls work perfect if you actually use the quick turn and take a short glance at the load screen

[jacobrlb]

you guys are stupid cause if they put it where you could walk and shoot then it would take out alot of the fear in the resident evil series cause if you can move and shoot then you are never in a bad situation and trying to survive. i beat this game and find it amazing and look foward to playing it more

[tranquilmatt]

ok if you've ever played and third or first peson shooter on xb360 or ps3 those are pretty basic controls.. so people need to stop complaining.

[Crusader3337]

your right they should stop

[seancolorado]

they are making a reboot for the RE6 so expect change

[cooldudekatty]

They ought a simplify the control scheme and make it so you can walk and aim at the same time. This would be a great game.

[warmitt]

My God, man! I can't understand a word you're saying.

[DonMatteo13]

lol you can go online in demo

[JohnKindle]

no see the ps3 has slightly more framerate hiccups because it is v-synced, meaning the 360 will have more screen tearing. Also, the dpad on the ps3 is reason enough to get that version.

[jupiterblue169]

actually the ps3 version has more screen taring and makes you do about a 4 gig download which takes about 15 minutes, I'm glad I have an xbox 360 and wii

[yankeessuck193]

the only thing that sucks about the controls is how you can't walk and aim at the same time, but other than that, i think the controls are fine.

[liambuzzy]

u r all gay....its a fukin game get a life

[bloodstain86]

why are u watching a fucking review for a game, if you insist that everyone that discusses games are gay and lifeless. Your a fuckin loser.

[Marioman269]

nobody every tries to get head shots in this game

[1983Dave1983]

I do, and so do thousands of other people. Plus we 360 owners get an achievement for the first 20 ;-)

[nalexc123]

both xbox and ps3 are the same so stop complaining

[VanDam08]

who gives a fuck there both the same thing

[americathefat101]

get out of your moms basement and take some responsibility in your mesreble fucking life.

Shitbox 3shitty? Wow NEEERD ALERT

[jonnymorrow]

play the 360 version, controls are actually good

PS3 controls are retarded for most games

[Raizen22]

Can you upgrade your weapons in RE5 like RE4??

[JakeLikesJoking]

you're talking way too fast and ur accent doesn't help lol

i think it's going to be great, gameplay is a bit slow but i'll get used to it

[SensesFailx13xx]

wtf r u saying? if u cant speak english dont try. im catching like every other word, if that lol.

[0mguusehaxub1tch]

To uppercut them.

[Oneiroi729]

you say plaga like playgah. Use the same formula for an entire sentence and you have a confused audience. But I don't care, nice job :)

[jojopooo]

Im sorry, but i have no idea what the heck youre saying buddy

[richymartin06]

you talk like a retard

[GamMan93]

Your not suposed to just run around.You shoot the exploding barrels when they walk by or shoot it in the head and run up to uppercut it.

[masturbator99]

you don't know how to play!!!

[ZakanzSkadooshTD]

Great, you gave us a review, for a demo, what the fuck were you thinking?

[mehrdadshiralipour]

good review but man you're really critical of some what i would consider small issues.thanks though.

[Abidi09]

I don't care if you can't shoot and walk at the same time. It worked perfect in RE4. My only complaint is not about silly things like being unable to run and shoot at the same time. What bothers me is that both Leon and Chris turn very slow.

[Abidi09]

Thanks for talking about the controls.

[re4gamez]

y they didn't just made it the same control on re4 since re4 was great

[abdul398614]

I played the Demo and love it. the only bad part about RE5 is that you cant shoot and run at the same time. really gay!!!!still i might even pre order it something i never done before. I feel like a geeg

[mikeyg345]

Its more of a survival action. But they don't have to call it that. I mean, come on, a huge executoner chasing you with an axe/hammer trying to kill you would be scary to some people, and should be pretty damn scary. The controls are not suited for an action game BECUASE THATS NOT WHAT IT IS which is why you don't have 100 shotgun shells on you at one time like a game like gears does.

[GearsOfChainsaw]

It's not fucking zombies, stop being a moron.

[BodyX93]

And I meant people like Derek14packers when I said "And I'm tired of people calling it "Survival Horror" because it isn't in any way, shape, or form." Somehow, he thinks it's "Survival Horror." He said: "i hate when people say they hate the controls.. its not a god damn first person shooter frig its a survival horror holy shit" That is just plain stupid.

[tobspursman]

Buuur-ming-hum

[yiggum123]

HMM... i'm fed up with everyone commenting with the controlls.

RESIDENT EVIL 5 is not an fps. In an interview with a producer, he stated that stopping to shoot and reload is to build suspense and a sense of urgency. Not just some run and gun. Good review.

[phoenixkissme]

If you lke Dead Space you will like Resident Evil 5. If you hate Dead Space you wont like Resident Evil 5 gameplay but you will like the story of Resident Evil 5

[fatbohi]

i can not wat for the game and how long do you have to surrive to wn

[MarioMarker]

I cant wait for this game!

[staddik]

push direction buttons 4 qwik weapon switch.

[Derek14packers]

i hate when people say they hate the controls.. its not a god damn first person shooter frig its a survival horror holy shit

[durge666]

It's not survival horror! It's survival action. There is no horror! If you get scared by RE5, you need some help cause you've got some serious issues. And theAI isn't just stupid, it's horrible. They'll run at you, then stop, crouch down, raise their weapon, and slowly inch towards you. You know why that is? It's to compensate for the horrible controls! If the controls were better like in every other Third Person Shooter, the zombies could charge at you. It'd be quicker paced and scarier.

[Leonesaurus130]

I think your missing the point that the guy was trying to make. He's saying that it's a RE game so controls are not meant to be played like it's a FPS or something of that sort. Controls aren't a problem if you're used to these kind of games. Plain and simple. Oh, and don't dis Chris Redfield bro, no offense.

[durge666]

I don't care if RE5 has its own special genre. Making the AI stupid as hell to compensate for the poor controls is not good game design. No matter how you look at it. The only reason the AI is so dumb in RE5 is because otherwise, the horrible controls would make the game impossible to beat. It would actually be scarier and more suspenseful if the AI was smarter and you could run and gun. And I'm tired of people calling it "Survival Horror" because it isn't in any way, shape, or form.

[Leonesaurus130]

First off, durge666, I never said it was survival-horror, it's more action/adventure now. I don't mind, I enjoy both genres, as long as it's Resident Evil / Biohazard. Second, A.I. is not a serius problem here at all. Not for Sheva and not for enemy A.I. Their not zombies, nor are the regualr humans. So, how smart do you expect a parasite to be. It's a RE game! When has enemy A.I. ever been an issue in ANY Resident Evil!? I also found the controls to be quite pleasantly improved, just needs use,

[durge666]

Yea, they're parasites, but they should be able to KEEP running at you. Why do they have to always stop running, crouch down, raise their weapons, and slowly inch towards you as soon as they get to a certain distance? They run at you, stop, and then slowly inch towards you. Wtf... The AI isn't just inconsistent and bad, it's intentionally inconsistent and bad. That's what irks me. The developers made the AI stupid and inconsistent to make up for the poor controls (compared to other shooters).

[chewy814]

yes but if enemies ran at you consistently and did not stop to give you time to shoot them people would be complaining it is to difficult and would say why is it so difficult to shoot enemies.

[durge666]

Not if you have the ability to run and shoot at the same time. I wasn't saying the AI was just plain stupid, I was saying it was intentionally stupid to compensate for the horrible controls. If the controls are like every other third person shooter, then the AI can be better and the action can be faster paced.

[durge666]

And I meant people like Derek14packers when I said "And I'm tired of people calling it "Survival Horror" because it isn't in any way, shape, or form." Somehow, he thinks it's "Survival Horror." He said: "i hate when people say they hate the controls.. its not a god damn first person shooter frig its a survival horror holy shit" That is just plain stupid.

[Leonesaurus130]

Yeah, I guess your right about that. LOL.

[mikeyg345]

Well maybe he got confused calling it a survival horror when capcom called it that themselves at the end of the demo?. Just becuase you don't think it is, doesn't mean it ISN'T a survival horror. Sure alot of people won't be scared of it but theres always people who are. And along with the controls WHICH ARE SIMPLE i repeat SIMPLE AND EASY! ammo is alot more scarce than any action game. So yeah, its more of a survival action but they don't HAVE to call it that.

[durge666]

It would be scary...if he posed a thread. Unfortunately, he doesn't. I got through the entire level without shooting off a single shot once I got out of that room. I just ran around the map in circles and was able to easily avoid everything until the helicopter came. And the controls are NOT simple and easy! You have to stop moving every time you want to freaking shoot or knife! How is that intuitive? How does it even make sense? It isn't intuitive, that's why the AI sucks so much!

[mikeyg345]

What does that have to do with the AI?. The AI is like that becuase there is so many of them. You really think you could kill all of them if one of them was skilled enough to smash your face in with a rock?. Remember its a survival..ACTION if you will, adding co-op is intuitive enough for that type of genre. What you control complainers have to understand is that this is not an action game and the devolpers are not wanting to turn it into an action game. They are not clumsy for this genre.

[durge666]

HAHAHAHA Yes, I do think I could kill them all if I could run-and-gun. Less, smarter, zombies and a better control scheme>tons of stupid zombies and a horribly outdated control scheme. And yes, they're very, very clumsy for this genre. Just take a look at Dead Space. Dead Space> RE 5 in every aspect imaginable. From the graphics to the atmosphere to the AI to the controls to the weapons to the horror and on and on and on.

[mikeyg345]

Except Dead space was piss easy BECUASE you could move and shoot and the enemy AI was not good enough to match that decision. I completed dead space on insane in one sitting and it felt like i was playing on Normal difficulty. The resident evil 5 demo already feels challenging and capcom said they have it set to Easy. Better controls doesn't always mean better game, it can ruin alot. For example i hate GTA4's handling of cars from the older versions but apparently they "improved" it.

[mikeyg345]

Can i just add aswell that Capcom have said the demo is an OLD build that they used to show the game off to the press months and months ago. Scince then, they improved both the AI of Sheva and the AI of the enemies. Im thinking not alot, but they still improved it.

[durge666]

Then that would mean Capcom has a shit marketing department, which I know isn't true. Which means it hasn't been improved enough for them to make a recent demo which means the full game doesn't have much better AI or run-and-gun.

[durge666]

And I swear, if anyone gets scared by any of the stuff in this damn game, they have no backbone whatsoever! Honestly, nothing in that demo was scary in the slightest which means nothing in the game is scary in the slightest and the run-and-gun control scheme they were talking about isn't in the demo either which means nothing in the game will be scary and it means that the run-and-gun control scheme isn't in the final game either! The whole point of a demo is to get people to buy the game!

[durge666]

If you leave the parts of the game that would attract the most sales out of the demo, they aren't in the damn game! To not put even a little bit of the best parts of the game in the demo is just plain retarded from a marketing standpoint! Which means, Resident Evil 5 is a survival action game with horrible AI and clumsy controls!

[neatie38]

wow your a fucking moron, this is a demo so the AI is going to be lousy and the controls are meant to be realistic, try to shoot a gun while running let alone walking with any accuracy. your a fucking moron who has obviously never shot a gun

[durge666]

Why can every soldier fire a rifle and walk or run at the same time? Because it's possible. Chris Redfield should be trained to keep his hand steady, he should be a pretty good shot. Instead, he acts like a civilian who's never actually shot off a gun before.

[neatie38]

Do you really think shooting a rifle is the same as shooting a pistol? Do you think they hit their exact mark unless they are in close quarters? And you never answered my question, have you ever even fired a gun?

[SMB1to3]

Didn't see your last comment, and yes I have fired a SA-80 ( With Blanks), I have fired a 9 mm at a range in Greece and I have a hunting Rifle (Legal/old), and a replica PPK . Have you ass hole ?

[neatie38]

im asking durge not you

[durge666]

This argument is boring. Apparently you choose to ignore just about every military on the entire damn planet.

[SMB1to3]

I agree with you

[neatie38]

ummm why the hell would I call you out you if i haven't? I fired a glock just this weekend and i actually tried it while moving and my accuracy was garbage....no I'm not a bad shot moving makes shooting extremely difficult especially against a moving target

[supayamum]

the game would be gay then it would be just like gears of war thats half the gameplay ur taking away if u could run and shoot

[BoneyHead95]

At 03:18 BoneyHead95!

[BoneyHead95]

I have the DEMO it's just like Dead Space but it's has more Gore.

[durge666]

And you can't move while shooting and it has a formal HUD and you can't dismember enemies and it isn't scary and the AI sucks.

[BoneyHead95]

I hate the shooting it's rally bad wan you have 14 Zombies on you.

[durge666]

Yea, isn't Chris Redfield supposed to be a trained combat specialist? He looks like he's smuggling cantaloupe melons in his arms, yet he runs slower than a fat man chasing after a donut and he takes ages to aim, can't run while shooting, and he can't even take out his knife and slash at something while moving. No offense to Chris, but I would NEVER want to be stuck with him during a zombie invasion of any kind (or "infected" invasion).

[BoneyHead95]

Yeah I thank he should lose some pounds and the boss you can kill if you can shoot whan you can run. And you can run out of guns in sec this was going to be my frist Resident Evil but now am not sure.

[durge666]

Same, I thought I'd give the series everyone was so hyped about a try with the demo... Bad idea. Worst half hour of my life. I got through the level with the executioner without firing a single shot once I was outside the cabin. Literally, I just ran around in circles all over the map until the helicopter came because I hated the shooting mechanics so damn much. And on the second map, I got stuck behind Sheva and the chainsaw guy chopped my neck off... "You'll never get stuck behind her" my ass

[BoneyHead95]

She can die to but to kill the chainsaw boss you shoot the red thing and than boom!

[Derek14packers]

its not a god damn first person shooter

[Derek14packers]

its a survival horror game holy shit not a fps

[Derek14packers]

its not a friggen fps and the AI are supposed to be zombies so i dont' think there supposed to be the brightest

[tomag143]

hey wts ur psn ?
