People bashing RE5 don't 'get' it.
Resident Evil 5 is fine.
The issue people have (which I don't get) is that the controls are very similar to Resident Evil 4 for GC/PS2. Yes, they're not run & gun, but they're not Resident Evil 2 (which, if in a modern game, would make RE5's controls feel like a godsend).
The Co-Op was very nice. My fiancee were yelling out commands to eachother while fighting off the zombie horde in the public assembly. It was a lot of fun.
Add back in the fact we'll be able to upgrade our weapons ala RE4, and it's sold me pretty easy.
Should it adopt run & gun like Dead Space did? Yes, I think it needs a more Western control scheme, but for now, it's OK.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
