GamesRadar: "By now, you've probably had a chance to play through a little of Resident Evil 5, if not the whole thing. And if you have, then you probably already know that it doesn't bring the scary like its forebears did. Instead, RE5 delivers its own strain of gruesome, Africanized awesomeness, with monstrous set-pieces and ridiculous over-the-top action sequences that make for a satisfying – if not exactly terrifying – action game.
Of course, some of those sequences are more awesome than others. What follows is a showcase of our five favorite moments from throughout the game's six chapters, hand-picked for surprise, challenge and general ridiculous fun."
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
Try to cope with your friend through terror with this list featuring the best horror Co-Op games you can play today.
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
When I was like, surrounded by enemies that move really fast, and I was like, hey! Ima gonna pop a cap in that ass! And then I aimed, and my character stopped. And I couldn't move and I was like. HEY! YOU MOVE YOUR ASS CHRIS!!! And then, it was all like, PSX control scheme ownage!!!! And I was like, killed by zombies that move too fast for the real-time inventory interface and outdated control scheme to handle and I was all like, HEY! This sh!t is whack!
I then proceeded to eject the disc, return the game to my local Blockbuster and get back to Killzone 2.
