Insert-credits writes: I'm tired of seeing all these fools defending Resident Evil 5 with classic quotes like " The only people who will complain with the control system are those who are not truly Resident Evil fans. " or "Fans of the original series would know that the it wouldn't let you run and shoot." and "If you had a gun what would you do, would you run and shoot or stand and shoot. People stand still, crouch prone or shoot." This is going to be easy…

Resident Evil 5 launched 15 years ago today - and it continues to stand as a stepping stone from the good to the bad.
One of my favourites because of the co-op. Then Resi 6 arrived and the series nosedived further.
I enjoyed the game co-oping with a friend I know the game in solo the AI can be an idiot but RE5 is way better then RE6. I played RE6 with a friend if it wasn't cheap when I got I would have avoided RE6.
5 was excellent, still play Mercs with my brother.
I would love a fully remastered RE:5, with some added, reworked content. The DLC for 5 was also excellent.
6 was awful.
I never understood why the game was misunderstood. It was a fantastic game at launch and is still fun today to play. It’s as action packed as Resident Evil 4 was, yet that’s regarded a masterpiece 🤷♂️
it was "misunderstood" because they introduced co-op into the franchise at a time when people loved to have fake rage about co-op. like, you could play the game as a solo experience, but people chose to have their bandwagon rage because it was cool at the time lol

An exploration of whether RE5 is truly the most logical next step for a remake, or whether there are others in line who deserve their day in the sun.
Remake of Resident evil outbreak as well as file 2. Same gameplay as the recent remakes. Choose what ever character you want to play as. With online co op.
Nope.
Rather remake other past Capcom & non-mainline RE games ... IF they have to continue churning out Remakes.
I'd rather want a new 3rd person RE spin-off
Dino Crisis and Onimusha Reboot
New IPs after Pragmata ships
Stop complaining and B*tching if you don't like the game don't get it for PS3.
I played RE1-RE4 including the GC remakes,and after playing RE5 in 2009,it's a goddamn shame that it still controls like a last-gen game.
It looks amazing,but that's all it has going for it.The story is very flawed and the setting is wrong,the way the Inventory management is setup is unnecessarily difficult,and to top it off,the controls are sluggish,clunky,and succeed only in bringing forth a feeling of "This sh!t is outdated".
I'm going to give it a 7.5/10 when I review it
I don't understand the hate. The game is fun and the demo was great. The controls are there to build fear of combat. We don't need RE to become Dead Rising. The game isn't scary but I think most of that has to be because of the abondance of Sunlight. The game is a blas t to play with co-op. I had a fantastic time and I can't believe people are bashing it. In most zombie movies the main characters are trapped somewhere and mobility often becomes and issue. It's a good game.
I agree with your point. Next generation should mean more than just upgraded graphics, gameplay should evolve also with the times or even innovate. That being said, I still like the demo and I'm familiar with the controls so it's not a huge issue for me. It will be to people who aren't familiar with previous games though.
Maybe you need to set your gaming standards higher ^ ,if Capcom want to make RE an Action game then that's no problem at all,but give us some controls that make the experience smoother and more enjoyable,I don't want to have to walk up right next to a Zombie/Mutated African set in the WRONG setting,only to swing my Knife and realize that I need to walk up to him a little more.
