I just have a bad feeling that RE:5 isnt going to review well, and by that I mean mid-low 80s. None of the preview reviewers seemed to have had the level of excitement that a really great game would have.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
