I m not feeling it =(

The game will be good not doubt, but i dont think it will be as epic as res 4 was. I mean over the shoulder is pretty much common on any action adventure game now adays.

Graphic wise wont be as much of a WoW as res4 was ( Killzone 2 will make this game not look as good :p )

and the gameplay well.. is just the same.... and thats kinda the bad thing IMO. I saw videos and pictures of the game, and it looks like you ll have many enemies coming at you from everywhere and the movement of the character is just too slow, which i think will make the game very frustrating.

The other thing is the annoying chick that fallows you everywhere AGH!!!!

Btw when is it coming out?

I think it looks awesome, but I'm not dying over waiting for it. I can usually contain my hype pretty well, because get let down is not easy. :(

I played the demo, its ok. It really feels just like an HD version or RE4. but... if you enjoyed RE4, i bet you will enjoy RE5 even if they don't change the sound effects, but make the graphics look amazing. Something tells me the storyline and COOP will be very entertaining. Mainly, the coop portion of it. Think RE4 storyline, expanded and all coop with a friend.

I am with you. I have never been too hyped for this game even though I loved Resident Evil 4. To me its much more of the same. I am now getting hyped for truly new games, i.e. Mirrors Edge, Dead Space, World of Goo, L4D, Street Fighter 4 (yes, that is a sequel, oh well). Resident Evil 5 looks great but just feels meh.

The view , aiming , and speed of the game are intentional and fitting choices for the type of game they are making.They want you to feel fear and despair often. When in doubt ..... RUN AND REGROUP !!!!!!!!! There are jombies everywhere !!!!!!!!!! Jombies , jombies , jombies.

I'm not psyched at all. It looks like it plays identically to RE4, the graphics aren't particularly impressive, only solid, and Capcom looks to be putting all of it bets into the co-op feature, which I don't really care for.. in other words, it looks to have virtually no selling point.

Hate to break it to you, but there are no jombies in RE5. Only plombies. Oh, and as someone else said, being multiplat also = next to no hype..

I want to be hyped,I really do, but I don't see major replay value. Maybe it is because I haven't played a RE game since good ol' N64. Everyone I know tells me to go play RE4 though and since this game will be better than RE5 must be a masterpiece. I'll just wait a few months afterwards for a pricedrop I suppose.

It's not being hyped because it was announced so long ago. Hype tends to die down after a while.

I'm getting more and more hyped about it. I hope there are plenty of things left secret though I must say that the inclusion of Co-Op is. HUGE Imagine having a mate back at your place, turn on the big screen and play trough Resident Evil 5 late one night. That is going to be awesome.

I'm playing my first RE game right now (RE4 on the GC) and I'm loving it. RE5 seems to be RE4 + Co-op which is just fine with me since I can't wait to play with my best friend.

I think it looks great, but my hype has been dwindling as of late. It's just too similar to Resident Evil 4, which isn't bad, it just doesn't get me super excited.

I'm defenitly not feeling the hype. Analog control doesn't work for me with the new REs. I tried RE4 on the PS2 back in the day and couldn't stand it. Hopefully it gets ported to the PC well, and not crappily like RE4.

After Resident Evil: Code Veronica, i just don't care anymore. Its more like an action game to me rather then a survival horror game it felt like way back when. I will say this though, that co-op looks interesting.

I'm probably going to end up renting it, its one of those games you play once then never go back to play again although co op may help.

re5 looks to be a good, albeit rehashed third person shooter from the good formula of RE4

the co-op is cool but after watching some videos, it'll be dumb co-op where one person stands on one side of door, unlocks it for person on other side

the AI is just as mediocre as it was on gamecube, the enemies, albeit 40 or 50 on screen now, still slow down 15 feet away making the game easy like RE4, so you can shoot everyone easily in the head

the graphics look good, not amazing but good for a console game

i'm in it for the RE story, it won't be scary, it'll be a good shooter thats all

i know it will sell well, but i wish capcom would make it more about thinking puzzles to solve in the co-op that actually require two people and are challenging for two not push this object to block that

i hope it flops critically though most reviewers won't see the rehash of RE4 that it looks like, i mean alot of the animations are the same from RE4, it even uses an advanced RE4 engine for HD consoles

another thing, though i will prolly buy this for my ps3, it should be on Wii. 1.5 million Wii owners bought RE4, and after seeing what little need the PS3's horsepower fills for this game, i can't imagine this game wouldn't be just as enjoyable with 480p RE4 graphics on wii

its a huge slap in the face to wii owners, 1.5 million of them in fact

you can get 40 enemies on screen just like RE5 and have them play dumb while chris redfield blows their heads off, its been done on ps2, its called dynasty warriors! jk, seriously though the enemies pick up the ladder i knocked down!!!!oh wow!!!! where have i seen that? oh yea RESIDENT EVIL 4!

That's why I'm going to rent it. The problem is RE4 essentially destroyed the RE storyline so I'm skeptical as to whether this game will continue down RE4's derivative path or bring the series' plotline back to where it should be.

I think he's referring to the fact that the RE series is getting further away from survival horror while dead space has more survival horror aspects. At least that's how I am currently looking at it. RE4 was good for the camera angle change but it just feels too actiony now. And RE5 is just looking like RE4 + coop + black zombies. I'd rather rent and be disappointed than buy the game and feel like an idiot.

The mercenaries minigame, Operation Ada, and unlockables gave it that over Dead Space. Gameplay-wise Dead Space had a better atmosphere, more "horror," and on the hardest difficulty it felt like you were playing a futuristic survival-horror game (instead of an action horror). RE4 just felt like an action game with shooter elements on every difficulty, which is why I prefer Dead Space too.

[QUOTE="Solid_Snak3Xx"]

I m not feeling it =(

The game will be good not doubt, but i dont think it will be as epic as res 4 was. I mean over the shoulder is pretty much common on any action adventure game now adays.

Graphic wise wont be as much of a WoW as res4 was ( Killzone 2 will make this game not look as good :p )

and the gameplay well.. is just the same.... and thats kinda the bad thing IMO. I saw videos and pictures of the game, and it looks like you ll have many enemies coming at you from everywhere and the movement of the character is just too slow, which i think will make the game very frustrating.

The other thing is the annoying chick that fallows you everywhere AGH!!!!

Btw when is it coming out?

i can certainly see your point. personally, i'm hoping for the best (i'm an admittedly huge RE fanboy). i do think that the coop aspect will take some of the scary factor out of it. especially after Dead Space. that sense of isolation really made for an eerie mood, IMO.

I'm sure it'll be a good game butI'm not overly excited for it. Not keen on the art style, animation/ai looks really sub-par and tbh it just looks very clunky.
