Good, but not quite..., 29 March 2009
7/10
Author: angie2911 from Scotland, U.K

Having just completed R.E 5, I have to admit to feeling somewhat disappointed. As a HUGE fan of R.E 4, my expectations were set quite high. After all, Resident Evil 4 was ground breaking stuff. Sadly, I don't feel this sequel delivers.

The plus points are fairly obvious - huge similarities in terms of game-play, controls and the overall feel of it, just like R.E 4. Alongside stunning graphics.

The minus points were, in comparison to 4, 5 only lasted approximately 10-12 hours for the main story whilst 4 lasted about 20+ hours. The depth of complexity the former title had was missing (the many cut scenes requiring quick reactions, the deeper story line, the riddles, puzzles and various locations). Granted, some of these featured, but they were scarce.

So in closing, 5 is a good game. A very good game. Nicely done, and enjoyable enough. But, it's not a truly great game in terms of a follow up to 4. It was promising, and something we fans eagerly waited for. But Resident Evil 4 STILL reigns supreme. R.E 4 - 10/10. R.E 5 - 7/10
