Resident Evil 5 has arrived, after 5 long years of waiting and anticipation it's over, and it was worth it. R.E. is set in Africa which makes sense considering the virus came from Africa. (As mentioned in Code Veronica). First I want to talk about the visuals in R.E. they are phenomenal, the intense sunlight you see is just great. Very deserty, and just looks like Africa should be. This game's visuals are done really well the water effects are just beautiful. Now on to the controls this is what some people had a problem with, the main thing is you can't move while aiming which is fine to me it's just like the controls in the originals. Now some are saying but this is next gen, well some classic features just need to stay. The zombies in R.E. 5 are smarter they will shoot at you and use grenades but nothing that a shotgun or SMG can't take care of. Over to a new feature your A.I. partner, it's actually nice to be able to have some help in this game, she does alright, once in a while she will sometimes empty an entire clip into a zombie but not too bad. This is one of my favorite R.E. games the story is great and of course so are the visuals, and gameplay. Buy this one!
