OMG YOUR SAYING THE GAME ISN'T AS GOOD BECAUSE OF THE CREDITS?

[TotalMK]

@marinerockkid Its part of the reason. Re4 had more style even down to the credits thats how much they cared about Re4. There was love in that project!

RE5 is fun I will agree, but I don't think it is a very good RE game...

It was a great action game, but it just was not scary. There were no puzzles... I think it was too easy.

The other RE games will scare the piss out of you. For me this game just was missing the horror element that the others had.

I've never played any of the remakes - but the original were great for their time.

Both Games Are Really Good In Third Person Shooting, But i Like the Remakes in the Gamecube!

I think the problem with this game was that it said "I want to be like 4" I don't think it's bad, but the only different thing was co-op (which really did not help when playing alone) and there are noticable recycle things. Basically after Shinji left, I guess they wanted to repeat the success they wanted that was 4, but met with little success. Even after 6 years, it's always gonna be 4>5

@startup97 Shinji has avoided RE5 because he wasn't involved in the development (he did some art production for it thats all). He doesn't know what its like because it will be different to what he would have made. So no, he doesn't hate it, he hasn't played it.

@NTom92 Shinji himself hated resident evil 5. This is how he wanted resident evil 4 to be watch?v=9NLUzU8Z_NI

@BIGBOSS1983100 well what you are remembering is completely wrong. Shinji Mikami, he directed RE1 and RE4, but not 2 or 3. He then directed the remake. RE5 was made by a lot of the team that made the original game, which is surprising.

[BIGBOSS1983100]

From what I remember, RE4 was directed by the same person that created the original RE1,2,and 3. RE5 was made by a entirely new group at capcom that worked on previous titles at capcom, but no Resident evil. RE 5 was okay in my opinion, but RE4 is so much better. There is more info about the game development in the RE5 collectors edition strategy guide.

resident evil 4 had some horror moments of greatness that took advantage of not beign able to see behind you as the old games took advantage of not being able to see in front of you. I.E scaring you with what you don't see other than what you do see. resident evil 5 had NO scary moments in it at all :/ what made re4's daytime spooky was fog mist and like a real grotty looking daytime not super duper bright

@sgc316 i think u mean 1997

[jazpyy]

RESI 2 was one of the best of the series, I totally dissagree with this review, rejecting a game because the credits were black? I agree that 5 isnt one of the greatest, and that it was similar to 4. But the credits being just credits? dude, wtf?
