when they first announced it i was hoping it would be a better version of Alone in the Dark, that game had so much potential it hurts that it sucked too much.

To be honest, RE5 sucked worse. Alone in the Dark imo was the best of that type so far this gen. I enjoyed and thought RE5 was boring.

2 words...Deadly Premonition. Makes both Alone and resident look like an excercise in polygon rendering and mediocrity.

I will definately try it. My mate played it though and said it was really bad. He said he understood why Remedy decided against openworld. But then some here say they liked it. So I'll give it a go.

I know a few that took it back though.

It is bad if you hope to see great hi res texture maping and incredible lighting with some nice particle effects. If you don't really care about technical aspects of a game, and are willing to play something original...you are in for a treat.

If you are a fan of Twin Peaks you will love this game.
