Not everybody did. Compare RE4's Japanese sales to that of RE1-3. :P |
What did you expect? It was first released on the shitty Cube and it was too late by the time they released it on teh Emotion. :p
To be honest, I didn't like Resident Evil 4 that much since it didn't feel like the previous Resident Evil games to me, and I hated it's crappy story so for me it was like a game that ruined Resident Evil franchise. However, I did like the gameplay of 4, and I appreciated the new stuff, it was a great and solid game, but I didn't like the fact that they ruined the RE story.
Now that 5 is around, I don't think the game ruins the franchise anymore. Resident Evil 5 is a continuation of Resident Evil 4, they are similar games, so if you liked RE4's gameplay, chances are you will like RE5's gameplay too.
People should know that Resident Evil re-started from 4, so it's not like the 5th one hurts the franchise more than the 4th.
And to scottie, Resident Evil 5 is the best looking Xbox 360 game, and it's almost on par with Killzone 2. The game also has the best full real-time cutscenes in all videogames. I am sure the graphical leap is as huge as RE4, if not huger.
