I've played a bunch of Mercenaries and I think I prefer Re5 mercenaries too but it's not so bad, my main complain is I miss Sheva ( I always played mercenary with her and the bow) and there are only 3 maps included...
Otherwise I think Mercenaries is easier than in Re5.
My top score on the first map is already 200k and I know I can beat that...
One thing to note is that you earn skill points much faster in mercenaries than in the campaign...( you get 10-15k per mercenary game provided you get over 75 kills or so).
