Operation Raccoon City is a totally different Resident Evil than any other. While easy to grasp as a third-person shooter it doesn't come with out challenges. Enemies can be nothing but bullet sponges or a breeze to take down.
That being said though this is a good game for any fan of shooters. Allowing you to choose different classes weapons and abilities. Fans of the Resident Evil series can enjoy this as well due to the general story crosses.
The controlles can be a bit finicky some times especially with the cover system. But after the first level it is all easy enough to pick up on.
Summery: Its worth picking up! Its a challenging shooter who's flaws can be over looked easy enough.
