Only Resident Evil games I've played and thoroughly enjoyed it
This is the only game in the series that I have played which puts me in an immediate disadvantage with regards to the story behind Chris and everything else, however I found the storyline with this game remarkable and kept me determined to beat the game to find out everything.
The visual effects put into the zombies that you face is nothing less than amazing and adds a great deal to the gore factor of the game, however I didn't feel completely on the edge of my seat with fear which was a slight disappointment.
The difficulty of the game feels at a just about right level which does give the gamer some slight challenges, especially with some of the bosses at the end of the levels.
Unable to move and aim at the same time can be annoying to begin with however you soon adapt to it and put up with it as well. The range of weapons in the game is good and being able to buy them as well after finishing missions is an added bonus. On your first play through, the quest to find ammo for some of your guns can be annoying, however on completing the game you now have infinite ammo (thank god!) so that's cleared as long as you get through it at least once.
I think the co-op mode is good and is balanced between working together as a pair and then sometimes having one person going off to another bit of the map to complete a task required for you to go forward through the game, it's not just the two of you shooting through thousands of zombies just to complete the game.
The amount of characters you come across is just about right and doesn't leave you confused and whose who at any point.
Even after completing the game once, it still provides you with more things to do afterwards which gives it amazing replay value.
To me it is a must buy for any person who likes horror games and is a worthwhile buy.
