Resident Evil 5 (PS3) Reviews

This game has changed the resident evil series a bit there are not really any zombies the enimies are more human in this game than in any of the previous editions. You have a partner with you throughout the game and can be controlled via a second palyer which is good when you don't want the sluggish computer AI around. however the in game bad guys ...  Read the complete review

Completed this game recently and can honestly say I really enjoyed it. Its not so much a survival horror anymore, rather a decent 3rd person action - adventure title. The graphics are top notch with some of the level designs looking great. Sheeva's AI gets a lot of praise as well (apart from always picking the weakest weapon availabe) She is ...  Read the complete review

>> Plot Summary: You play as the familiar character from "Resident Evil 1" Chris Redfield, who um, seems to have hit the gym a lot recently judging by his arms! The plot is set in Africa and builds upon the last game's notion of the enemies mostly being humans controlled by the las-plagas. Further plot details can be ...  Read the complete review

Resident Evil 5 is the much anticipated follow up to the critically acclaimed Resident Evil 4, and the first RE (Resident Evil) game on new-gen consoles. On the surface, there is not a lot of difference between the 2, except that RE5 was a new story, characters, and obviously a next gen game. The controls have been subtly modified, to ...  Read the complete review

I'm not the biggest fan of the RE series. Not to say I'm not a fan, just not the biggest. I loved the first game, so much so that I even got the ported DS version so that I could play it on the go. I even enjoyed some of the non-numbered games in the series; I played through most of Code Veronica X and, while I never got round to finishing it due ...  Read the complete review

I bought this game when it was 1st released. It's a great game, graphically; this instalment of the franchise is good, not brilliant, but good. This is probably down to the ps3 more than the game. The controls and the camera angles, on the other hand, are pretty dire. I mean a simple thing that you don't realise until it's taken ...  Read the complete review

Resident Evil 5 is highly enjoyable but feels like it is taking the series in a new direction. In comparison with previous games in the series, I think that this is nowhere near as scary. Instead it is much more focused on the action. Which I think isn't necessarily a bad thing. You play as series veteran Chris Redfield as you tackle ...  Read the complete review

Firstly, the Demo of this game was average at best. It really put me off and i no longer looked forward to it's release. However i arrived back from holiday on Saturday to find RE5 through my door and decided to play it on Sunday. Now my ONLY 'good' Resident Evil experience was 4 after my girlfriend insisted that i'd enjoy the more ...  Read the complete review

Brief Summary: You are Chris Redfield a BSAA (an organisation that was set up to counter Bio-Organic Weapons Threats) operative sent to a part of African to intercept a BOW arms deal taking place. Of course the mission doesn't go according to plan as the local inhabitants are all infected with a type of BOW, a virus that turns them all ...  Read the complete review

The first and most obvious thing to state about RE5 is that it looks STUNNING. I mean, graphically, this is the best we have seen on the PS3 so far. The dusty shanty-town levels feel as hot and as drab as you think they would in real life. The character animations are superb - realistic and never cartoony. Cut-scenes are rendered beautifully and, ...  Read the complete review

Yes Resident Evil is back with the new edition Resident Evil 5, set in the heart of Africa, Chris Redfield (Known through-out the Resident Evil Series) is sent by the BSAA, on an investigation mission. There he meets his assigned partner Shevs Alomar, a freaky, strong female who reminds Chris of his ex-partner from the 1st Resident ...  Read the complete review

How do you top the amazingness that was resident evil 4? that's right, release it again with knobs on. this is essentially more of a revolution of part 4, instead of the evolution we were all expecting. the main difference is the addition of a second character, a 'buddy' sort of borrowing from the team management ...  Read the complete review

I've always been a fan of the Resident Evil series since the first game for the Playstation 1. I remember being scared out of my wits at that game at a young age! Resident Evil 5 marks the franchise's first game on the next-gen systems. This game is almost identical to Resident Evil 4 for the Playstation 2 apart from a couple of ...  Read the complete review

I've always been a big fan of the resident evil games, playing through all of them. Obviously I had to get a hold of the latest instalment and give it a bit of a spin. I decided to hold off until I could play through the game with a friend (as its basically been designed as a two player experience, and single player with AI can be ...  Read the complete review

Resident Evil 5 continues where Resident Evil 4 left off, taking the gameplay that revolutionised the Resi series in the last game, with enhanced graphics and a new partner to work with. The graphics are some of the best seen on the current generation of consoles, with stunning lighting effects and fantastic scenery and main character ...  Read the complete review

The Resident Evil franchise really needs no introduction but for those of you that haven't heard of it let me tell you. Resident Evil, or 'Resi' as fans know it, has been a hugely successful series of computer games which has also transferred well into a trilogy of movies. The storyline is rather simple in its origin as, for one reason or another, ...  Read the complete review

Since its origins, ...  Read the complete review

While the most recent game in the popular franchise offers a new set of missions allowing you to save the world from Bio-logical weapons and flesh eating critters, there has been a discernable change in gameplay since the franchise began. Like Resident Evil 4, there is more of a Tomb Raider feel to the style of game play; at times it feels as ...  Read the complete review
