What an ass, he lists what makes survival horror survival horror, and then goes and makes these things out to be bad and say that you have always and still will bitch about it.



That is like complaining about having to shoot in a FPS, and saying peopel always complained about having to shoot in them. What a moron.


It is another review that highlights gameplay changes from old school RE games and brands them negative, but the same sites did not brand this negative when RE4 done it.


Example: Lack of puzzles, or very simplistic ones. He frowns on this in comparison to old games, he does the same for the linear paths. RE4 did these both and got high scores for it?


This is why reviews are bollocks, they are inconsistant crap.


The best quote, though it had good competition:


"a significant part of what made Resident Evil appealing has been removed, and what remains is the shooting portion. Pushed front and centre, it morphs what was a survival horror adventure into a survival horror shooter, and many will find Capcom's transparent desire to appeal to the action gaming audience a little troubling."


This is all crap RE4 should have got when it was released, but instead reviewers praised it, now they had a changed of heart and RE5 is frowned upon for not going back to the old ways which were cheered away on departure?


Inconsistant crap.

They've played and reviewed RE4. They want a different game now.
