the fact you're comparing L4D and RE is proof the resident evil lately is just gunfighting like the others. remember when RE was the original strategy/survival horror game? i miss those days.Guardian_Ekim wrote:
Resident Evil 5 for PC has the potential to be a good game. I've played most of the RE series. However, I think Left 4 Dead blew my Resident Evil experience out of the water and I believe that Left 4 Dead 2 is going to do the same. Therefore, I plan to save my $50 until I can order L4D2.

RE 1/2 scared the bejesus out of me when I was a young lad. I hope they eventually go back to their roots. I think the series got a little too wonky right around the Code Veronica game.. But RE5 ties the RE4 plot lines to the rest of the culture which I thought was cool.steelie34 wrote:

@OP... there is no comparison between RE1&2 to RE5. it's nowhere near the franchise roots, unless you just like picking up herbs. there are plenty of those.
also, if you have Nvidia 3d glasses and a 120hz monitor it has 3DOmniDeath wrote:
I too am d/ling it as we speak. I played through the 360 version when it came out and loved it (except that wearing a bulletproof vest takes up a slot in your "backpack" which makes no sense). The co-op made it even better.
From the reviews that I've seen the PC version is supposed to be better than the console versions due to some control and graphical differences.
If you're hoping for something like the original games then you may be disappointed as the last to installments of the Resident Evil series have been much more action oriented. I personally like the change. I liked the old games, but I prefer the new ones.
