Ok. My Resident Evil thoughts. 

Resident Evil 5 is a better third person shooter than Resident Evil 4.

Resident Evil 4 was a poor game. How it reviewed well is beyond me. Resident Evil 4 had by any standards bad third person game controls. Now heres thing. It wasnt at all scary or tense either. The whole point of Resident Evil was to shit you up. Resi 4 and 5 did not do that. They tried to keep the suspense by making you fire when stationary and all that bollocks. But in the end you had 2 games where it lost 'ALL' suspense and had 'BAD' third person controls. 

Alan Wake is how third person controls are done while keeping suspenseful atmosphere.

Now the video in the OP. Yes I totally agree. It has gallons more suspense than anything in Resi 4 or 5. They should have stayed completely away from third person view unless they were willing to give it proper responsive controls and learn how to do suspense in third person.

Yes the video in the OP is definately what REsi 4 should have been.
