Nah, I'll wait for price drop.

They should change the name of the series; this is nothing like old resident evil games. So much more focus on action than anything else.

Nope, cant afford it. HOWEVER I will be playing Bomberman Live or if somebody wants to play any other game im up for it. I too agree that this isnt Resident Evil asside from the story. I still think the 1st one was the best besides CV on Dreamcast.

Seen tons of videos, including a lot of spoilers, and it seems like all my expectations have been met. We have a new worst core entry to the series. The series can't be salvaged at this point. It's right on Sonic the Hedgehog's tail. It's like they're actually trying to make each game worse than the last.

I think I'll be passing on this one. The problematic AI with your partner is enough to sway me away from it. It looks like the game was focused with co-op being almost necessary.

Not to mention, the game does not pause when managing inventory. Fuck that. Sure it heightens the tension, but I don't need that kind of frustration in my games.

It's funny how 50-60% of the GT video review complains about the game's issues, but they give it a 9/10 still.

My thoughts exactly. I thought I was going to see something between a 7 & 8 at the end.
