Resident Evil 5. RE4 is one of my favorite games ever, so to follow that one up would be difficult, but RE5 was just not fun to play.

Uh, good choice! RE4 more or less changed my gaming life, I loved that game, and was extremely hyped for RE5. I played the demo and was so disappointed that I never picked up the full release. It just felt so generic, lacking almost everything I loved about RE4.

It is of course possible that I could get into it if I gave it a more proper chance, as some say it is decent in its own right. But even "decent" is a major letdown from one of the greatest and most important video games of all time. I don't know what Capcom were thinking there, throwing away such a massive opportunity the hype of RE4 gave them. The series arguable didn't recover until RE7.
