RE 5: Now I'm Conviced It's Gonna Rock
by DethSkematik on Comments
Just played the demo version of Resident Evil 5, and I have to say, "Awesome" is an understatement. It's intense, gorgeous, and just as great as RE4 was, just a little better. Although I'm still not a fan of being planted to the ground while aiming, it's a minor complaint compared to what the rest offered. For those of you who are unable (or too lazy) to download the demo, I'll give a summary: you choose two scenarios, either watch a mob witness a live execution then go guns blazing against said mob while fighting a seemingly invincible medival esque executioner half the size of the Hulk. The other scenario is running through a winding path in a small city, and later fighting the infamous chainsaw weilding dude. (and I never thought possible, but Capcom's made this enemy even more creepy) And you're partnered always by Sheva, who does an outstanding job of watching her own back, so babysitting is at a minimun, only a few occasions did I have to intervene. Still, I insist that you play the demo to see for yourself, because my words do no justice towards this game. It is freakin' spectacular, man! March just got a little too long to wait now, people.
