Why do people diss RE5?

I didn't mind it but it was nothing compared to RE4. Don't get me wrong, I played through it in online coop with a friend and we had a blast but still not as good as RE4..

The game is utter garbage :)

Im still playing itand really enjoying, but with that said it isnt as good a 4. IMO 4 was the best in the series.

I'm just so glad that I rented it:D

And to tell you the truth Imade itto the end boss and Idid't evencare to beat him. I died once and I never tried again

Nothing can beat the first 3. 4 and 5 were really bad when it came to story telling and I always prefered the old clunky gameplay because it was scarier that way. 5 was good as an action game, but as a Resident Evil game, I hated it. Sheva is a terrible character and the way it ended really pissed me off. It had so much potential. Doomtime

Because it try to balance what everyone wants and so some does not get what they want so they diss it.

I hope in the next one they focus less on the horror and more on the survival like the earlier ones.

Couldn't stand it. Terrible controls, simple gameplay, and little replayability. No scare factor either. KHAndAnime

That about sums it up.

I loved the game, but after beating it on professional and nothing changes level after level, it just got boring quick. I thought RE4 was far better, but the co-op was a plus. I hope RE6 has more replay value in it. What would be cool in my mind in this. Since Umbrella has special task forces, they should have a multiplayer mode where you play a group of four or six task members in a story mode. Custom characters and equipment. Id like that.

It felt dumbed down to me.

I played the demo and hated it. Didnt bother renting/borrowing.

Overall, I enjoyed the game. I didn't like the fact that it was more action packed then scary... T.T

RE 1 and RE 2 [ Best in the series IMO ]

I thought that it was a pretty good game.

well its a good game for sure but it def just felt like an RE4 expansion with co op they didnt really make a new game is the problem for me. Also the fact that it was even less scary then RE4 which is really bad since RE4 had like 1 scary part in it.

I don't get the "it doesn't follow the RE scary gameplay tridition" hate. That just dosn't make sense to me if it's fun then it shouldn't matter if it's not like the rest of the series and I don't see why just because it's different from the other games it should hamper your experince

People didn't like it because it wasn't scary boring story and unoriginal and Sheva AI was dumb.

Don't confuse a minority or 1/3 of the audience as 'everybody'.

Personally, I was never a Resident Evil fan, simply because of the fact that I was a young'un. I didn't find killing zombies to be kickass, I found it to be a nightmarish goul-fest that kept me awake for countless nights.

As for RE5, I just didn't like it from the start, especially since I was new to RE to begin with.

Akward controls, not being able to run and shoot, ammo is scarce....It just completely turned me off.

I wonder if those who say RE4 is better than at least the first 2 Resident Evil's actually played the games back when they originally came out. I never liked the change in direction that RE4 took, therefore I didn't enjoy RE5 much either because it felt exactly like RE4 with improved graphics and annoying AI.

I loved it better than RE4. But then again I seem to like the games no one likes and dislike the games everyone likes :D

I thought it wuz awsome i just didnt enjoy the friendly AI and also the story wasnt very impressive I thought RE4 was better

The game is utter garbage :)

took the words right out of my mouth, Resi peaked with number 2 and after that It was downhill for me.

It was nothing more than meh

especially following RE4

In RE5 you get an AI partner that 'helps' you and she ruins the game hands down

In RE4 you get an AI partner with no form of attacking and I barely even notice she is there she never gets in the way and it's funny whe she thinks I'm looking up her skirt

That is one thing that is amazing to me about RE4 a large portion of the game is an escort mission that actually DOESN'T suck

When compairing Resident Evil 5 and Dead Space, I would say Resident Evil 5 was better. Dead space was too easy. Part of the reason is being able to move and shoot. I felt more fear and tension in Kameo. It should not be see enemies seconds later the enemy die.
