[MVP]

Soooo, is anyone else picking this up tonight/tomorrow? I am seriously considering it, but that damn demo was frustrating me a bit. The control scheme is

, but playing online with someone else is fun.

All these dudes who get it early are getting it overseas.

Not true i could have had it last week from game depot.

 

[DownByLaw]

Should be in the mail today via GameFly

 

[theyoungestgun]

dont get the collectors edition, cause it's wack. the action figure of chris redfield is barely 3 inches tall, like it came out of those gumball machines,the keychain is the size of a quarter and the bag is ugly. so don't waste your money... and learn from my mistakes.. capcom sucks #%!!!!!

 

[supersaiyan415]

Anyone know how long campaign is?

The graphics definitely don't suck, actually better than KZ2, and KZ2's controls aregarbage. Co-op on KZ2 is well...nonexistent. Co-op on RE5 is worth getting game alone. Then again I actually have both games and have played both of them andam not basing my opinions on a limited demo.

 

[i3allistic]

imma just gonna rent it ....play it and return it ...and people that always complain about game control...RE aways had weird control

 

[nickle dime bay]

I got it reserved but i dont know if i should return it, demo was okay.

 

[xdahcreator]

Almost picked it up today but only thing you can do online is play co-op so when you beat it there's nothing else to do. Will rent instead.

 

[vansoffthewa11]

i got it early as well. and not from overseas

 

[Bend_The_Knee]

i want the game but only if i can trade it for killzone 2 straight up

 

[shatterkneesinc]

word..when i went there n copped, she gave me the 20 dollar gift card...thought she was tryna bag

.

 

[rowbot626]

pretty much the same as re4, but chris is more of an annoying character. they need to bring back Leon and Ashley > im surprised x-play gave it a 3/5.. itspretty good game granted that its just re4 with co-op and better graphics.

 

[jordanpinoy]

im going to go hop on the xbox 360 right now with my bro and try out co-op...
(would have gotten it for ps3 but it overheated, have to send to sony and get it fixed ftl $150)

 

[badboyf0life420]

lol i sucked.... my cousin and i played co-op and we dint even last long in legend, we couldnt even pass the very first part with the boss with the axe.. wejust couldnt wait around, running around in that first part waiting for that helicopter... maybe because it was 12 am..

had it since wednesday got bored went back to trophies in KZ2. havent touched re5 since. how can this game be HD in splitscreen coop it doesnteven fit my HD tv. cmon capcom.
Gametrailers reviews:
Presentation (graphics):
RE5= 9.7
KZ2=9.8
Dont compare RE5 with KZ2 i barely see any particle effects except for fire/explosions in RE5 in KZ2 you actually have wind if you dont believe play the desertmission particle/wind effects are crazy. In killzone you have a trail of sand floatin behind you when you move in RE5 what do i see nothing in desert missionslike that lol
oh yea and you cant compare two different genres. RE5 is 3rd person shooterKZ2 is 1st person shooter.
also x-play gave it a 3/5 because it is simply RE4 with new graphics and coop

 

[parada45]

Game is really easy so far. I got to this cave and stopped playing its ok so far.

that whole no widescreen splitscreen coop support is just a *#* moment when you start the game

 

[streetchemistry]

Anyone get to the oil facility yet? Those chainsaw dudes are handing me my #%+

 

[that guy]

Rented it yesterday i haven't played it but i have seen my brother play it looks good so far. I think i might start playing it right now.

 

[finnns2003]

i chose between this and SFIV, ended up with SF. i'll pick this up by midweek, spring break FTW.
