- AmishRefugee, on 03/25/2009, -5/+272Are there any videogames out there today that Yahtzee can't make a triple-***** hooker metaphor out of?
- twtmc, on 03/25/2009, -11/+240Yo Dawg, I herd u liek armor
- teamr, on 03/25/2009, -10/+196Oh man..that was the best ZP in a long time. The part about Chris Redfield's head had me rolling!
- LordXykon, on 03/25/2009, -4/+172OH DEARS he didn't mention anything about Chris being able to punch boulders out of the way.
- Trifold, on 03/25/2009, -9/+170I assume the giant enemy crab is exclusive to the PS3 version.
- Rikushix, on 03/25/2009, -2/+136OH DEAR.
Also I like the way he pronounces "inventory". - isayre020888, on 03/25/2009, -3/+133That's what you get when you buy a PS3. Giant enemy crabs in every game.
- pseudo.hero, on 03/25/2009, -17/+130Probably cause they weren't bad once you played it for more than 5 minutes.
- Koush, on 03/25/2009, -5/+117As a long time Resident evil fan, it was quite weird when you watch Resident evil 5 reviews and not even get a mention of if the game is scary or not.
- lektroluv, on 03/25/2009, -62/+146Too bad he didn't mention the god awful controls.
- reyoo30309, on 03/25/2009, -2/+78I hope to hell your joking...
- churler, on 03/25/2009, -2/+76Games haven't been scary for a long time.
Take something like Clock Tower where you're a little defenseless school girl and there's a dude with a giant-ass pair of scissors chasing you around, and you have something potentially scary. - Jeremyz0r, on 03/25/2009, -3/+60He's British.
- VelvetoneFusion, on 03/25/2009, -1/+54He's not.
- velveetaavenger, on 03/25/2009, -4/+56Portal has lots of holes in it too though ;)
- barrakuda, on 03/25/2009, -1/+51I'm pretty sure they bulked up chris redfield just so he could uppercut that boulder.
- NathanielJ, on 03/25/2009, -1/+51How the hell did you mess it up when it was set up for you so perfectly?
- FLarsen, on 03/25/2009, -0/+44You're walking peacefully in the woods, and then a ***** CATERPIE appears!
Ash shat bricks, it's not very effective. - Mewchu11, on 03/25/2009, -14/+56I was hoping for a bonus ending but just got a longer shirt ad. If the damn shirts weren't so dang esoteric maybe they would sell better. If I want to wear an advert I'd want to wear a shirt that doesn't take five minutes of explaination for the uninitiated.
- JesusHimself, on 03/25/2009, -2/+43Watch his portal and psychonauts reviews
- TomRemixed, on 03/25/2009, -0/+39there are 4 different control options and the default one is to fire with the trigger.
- Niih, on 03/25/2009, -3/+39What I dislike about RE5 is how it tries to be serious (mainly with the plot, the real time inventory, the perfect but depressing graphics so far away from the lively castle in RE4), so realistic, while leaving so many holes behind.
For example, enemies still disapppear in instant bubbles; while it was not a pb in RE4, the desired realism of RE5 + the power of the next gen consoles make it ackward.. (at least their clothe could remain).
Also, as pointed out in the review, the inventory system sucks big time, and the game has become a big ammo/barrels hunt, hoping a dead dog will magically turn into shotgun shells.
Plus I miss the old 'Welcooooooome', 'Come back any tiiime' of the merchant; he wasn't perfect, but at least offered a reason why we could suddenly buy/upgrade weapons.
This realism point put aside, although I love playing co-op, I have to say it doesn't fit very well the franchise, as it's really impossible now to be scared with a friend shouting in your ears; It really kills the immersion, and at most, you'll be stressed out, but never scared. And given how stupid the AI is, you can't say you can play alone and feel the fear, because it's just impossible to play the game this way.
In a nutshell, I was really impressed by RE4 and fell in love with it, but to me, RE5 is just an average game, with a lot of bad choices, and very few innovations.... A big disappointment imho. - cmf2071, on 03/25/2009, -4/+39With more holes than a triple-***** hooker in 19th century Whitechapel.
Instant classic. - thejwac, on 03/25/2009, -0/+35Have you ever played Resident Evil before?
- PaperJesus, on 03/26/2009, -0/+33http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xuXkVzBdJQ
- Cheesepuffly, on 03/25/2009, -8/+40I have and will digg everyone up in hopes to continue the fight against the Yahtzee digg down brigade
- LaughingMan11, on 03/25/2009, -2/+34No.
- pk7677, on 03/25/2009, -5/+32Meh. When are they going to host HD videos? I want to see more pixels.
- Emtoor, on 03/25/2009, -12/+38Yep.. back to l4d.
- ShogunWarPig, on 03/26/2009, -1/+27Why are you assuming that he is playing it on the 360?
- ZurMacht, on 03/25/2009, -1/+26Maybe because it so obviously isn't. :/
- pfhayter, on 03/25/2009, -1/+26Wrong game dummy
- HughesAP, on 03/25/2009, -4/+29He is right that this game isn't as good as RE4 unless you have a partner
- Circuit, on 03/26/2009, -0/+24He's a Brit living in Australia.
- Naidel, on 03/25/2009, -0/+24Shalebridge Cradle is one of the most awesome levels I've had the pleasure of playing through.
After playing for a while I was convinced that the strange grunts and voices you could hear throughout the level were merely for ambiance, and that there wasn't any actual danger -- just creepy lights and perhaps some ghosts floating around. Thus my shock was exponentially multiplied when I, whilst preoccupied with picking a difficult lock, hear one of the grunts get louder and louder as if something is approaching -- and then I suddenly get hit in the back by some goddamn freak with a _cage_ on his head. Seriously. I get attacked from behind by a moaning monster that could have been the lost brother of Leatherhead, except that this one is wearing a ***** cage. On his head.
It's the only time I've ever screamed from playing a game. - inactive, on 03/25/2009, -1/+24Yahtzee is King of metaphors.
- mbraynard, on 03/25/2009, -2/+25win
- Tooooon, on 03/25/2009, -1/+23British: Inn-ven-toury
American: Inn-van-taury
Yahtzee: In-ven-terry - KMartSheriff, on 03/26/2009, -1/+20"You're carrying your armor in a pocket of your armor!"
That made me LOL out loud. - strictnein, on 03/25/2009, -1/+19Exclamation points!!!
- ZurMacht, on 03/25/2009, -1/+19Because, it is cool to hate what is popular, you silly goose.
- thh204, on 03/25/2009, -0/+18That's a bit harsh. I thought it was pretty good in COOP with a friend.
- Shazbuckle, on 03/25/2009, -4/+22@dsmx
Realism sucks. And realistic games are not fun. - LordofChaosIori, on 03/25/2009, -0/+17I'm hatin'.
- SpeedSteamBoat, on 03/25/2009, -1/+18I get Fatal Frame, but Dead Space? Really?
- itsripitsrip, on 03/26/2009, -0/+16more of..
SO WE PUT ARMOR IN YOUR ARMOR SO YOU CAN WEAR ARMOR WHILE YOU WEAR ARMOR. - dsmx, on 03/25/2009, -5/+21have you ever tried moving while firing at the same time?
- bdfariello, on 03/26/2009, -0/+14Is that what "lolol" means?
- themastersb, on 03/26/2009, -1/+15Although the giant crab boss in this game is much more of an innovative boss than what would be seen in other Resident evil games. With this boss you strike the weakpoint for MASSIVE damage. In fact I don't think that anything like that has ever been used before in another game.
- Triplastic, on 03/25/2009, -2/+16It's hard to find a decent CO-OP game now days. RE5 delivers.
