I loved RE4 and I have literally beat it about 10 times on both ps2 and gamecube combined, and I played the demo andreally enjoyed that (I beat it about 10-15 times on both maps) but there are a lot of lack luster reviews for the game and im afraid to buy it. I was hoping for better reviews like RE4, is it worth the money?

Well in my opinion, it's totally worth it as I found it much better than 4.

It hasn't been getting Lackluster reviews!

Anyways, You already told me what I needed to hear about YOUR gaming tastes.

YOU LOVED RE4.

YOU LOVED THE RE5 DEMO.

The problem ANYONE has with the game is the controls, which CLEARLY, you like, so get on it buster.

Who cares what I think of the game, the GAME was Clearly made for fans like YOU.

Im guessing that the controls dont bother you and you really liked the demo.... based on that then yes, go get it now.

I loved the controls, using the shooter controls with RE5's gameplay is perfect together. The whole complaints about Moving and shooting is mute, atleast in my opininon....the limited gameplay made things more intense.

Do you have a good buddy to play with? If yes, you'll ADORE the game. If not, you'd better get Dead Space.

Where did I say I liked or disliked the controls or not?

I was simply using the details from the OP to figure out his problem, if you want to know my story well...

I own every RE ever made, and beat RE5 multiple times....but I know many people that have issues with the controls because games like GeoW cater to the new breed of gamer.

If you loved RE4, you should love RE5, assuming you have someone to coop with.

i agree with this

I agree with both of you.

Let me speak for all of us :

RE5 isn't worth a broken cent, Halibut's Bones, an Elephants moonpie, or three skunk whiskers.

We also are apart of a clan of articulate gamers, so join our union today.

theirs PLENTY of horror in RE5 and is by no means a crappy shooter. i think what your missing is the bits that make you jump. so how about get a friend to sneek up behind you and burst a balloon while your play to give the same affect.
