Again, I can't have spoken it. This isn't a verbal discussion. It seems you aren't even thinking about what you are typing, just repeating stock arguments thinking they are valid.
It doesn't matter if I played it. Even before I got a chance to try it out, all impressions at launch time were that was what it was like, whether it was from those that liked it or hated it (as opposed to some games getting different impressions depending on those).
So unless you are going to call every other gamer who played it a liar, it's not really that more advanced than RE4.
The biggest issue is the co-op, but even that can be done with some work.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
