Resident Evil 5 - 7/10
Good: Co-op is fun, better graphics.
Bad: Still can't run and shoot, nothing new brought to the franchise, no longer survival horror.
Resident Evil needs some upgrades. It's pretty pathetic that even in it's 5th outing the game still doesn't allow you to run and shoot at the same time. Survival horror has been gone since Nemesis and it has turned into an action game. Don't get me wrong I loved RE4 despite some of its flaws, but 5 is practically the same with the only notable additions being co-op and better graphics. Toward the end of the game I was hoping it would end soon so I could send it back to Gamefly and get something else. It's a good rental, but I wouldn't recommend purchasing it. Hopefully Resident Evil 6 goes in a new direction seeing as in 5 Spoiler: You finally(?) kill Wesker.
