After playing the japanese version of the demo, I feel it's both. I really can't explain it, but while playing the demo, Resident Evil 5 felt like little more to me than a poor man's Gears of War. I honestly really want to love this game, but right now I can't.

I'm hoping that the full game will change my mind or, at the very least, I'll be able to appreciate the game despite not personally liking it, but as of right now this game just feels mundane to me. It used to be the title I anticipated the most, now I regret placing my preorder, and am seriously considering canceling it.

Anyone else feel like their hype has gone down for RE5, or am I the only one?

 

I feel exactly the same, and I haven't even managed to play the demo.

Until the first half of 2008 RE5 was my most anticipated game this gen. But after the side-kick was revelaed and I've seen the gameplay demo showings, I feel it's a poor mans Gears of war without horror feel.

I hope Im wrong but I believe the best case scenario now is that RE5 will be a good splatter zombie shooter.

 

What do you think of the graphics when seeing them in motion?

 

 

 

Honestly, I'm not the best guy to ask about graphics. I'm content with RE4-level graphics, so anything above that I don't really notice that much. But from what I saw, it sure looked good. One of the better looking next-gen games so far, but I wouldn't put it above Gears 2... Well, not from the little I played, anyway.

lol, then you certainly ain't the guy to ask. But at least you gave an honest answer. ^^

 

 

Haha, just to clarify, I can clearly tell the difference between RE4 and current-gen games, I just can't really tell what looks better than something else :) I mean, I can't say either Gears 2 or MGS4 looks much better than the other, I don't really notice.

@SHMUPGurus, very true. That was a big irk factor for me as well.
