Res 5 doesnt really strike me as a game that would need competitive multiplayer but this actually looks ok, pretty laggy tho.

I'm writing this comment before seeing the video, and I'd just like to say, versus mode in RE5 sounds really terrible.

Dood, what is it with Capcom and their matchmaking setup?  It's the same fucking shit on Street Fighter IV!!!  Goddamn annoying as sin!!!


Other than that, I don't really care about RE5...but I wanted to hear Vinny and Brad rock a Quick Look!!!  = D

This DLC should not exist. Though it was mildly entertaining watching Brad suck.

Capcom knew this mode was so bad that they hid it behind 400 Microsoft Points.

Usually I'm supportive of most games...but this is bad. RE5 is not a game made for versus. Co-op is as far as they should go. Weskers!

Controls not conducive to fun multiplayer? Yea, that's a shocker.

They're not conducive to fun singleplayer either.

Now you need to end videos with Chris burning in the fire. Find an excuse, do it everytime someone mentions zombies or Wesker in any capacity, then flash to Chris burning in the fire.

That's about all you got out of this Versus Mode quick play. Heh heh heh.

While this is retarded, it's a whole lot easier to get into a game if you select a game that displays the latency on the right side. Preferably full signal... just  a thought...

I think it looks fun. The only problem I see is that Slayer matches might just degrade into Deathmatch, which sucks. I'd prefer if it was just competitive Mercenaries in which you could not harm the opposing team.

Also, Brad seems like he's doing a bit of griefing in this video. :P

Its funny how Wesker's magnum can take out a person in one shot, but if you shotgun him in the face, it does nothing. So apparently weapon balance was not part of the agenda.

Um... is it just me or does it look like they zipped Jill's suit down an extra few inches for this DLC? it's at about 0:31 in the video.

Brad, as chivalrous as you are, I think you'd hit a lady who was trying to shoot you in the face.  It's the least you could do for gender equality.

I dunno. It doesn't look like the garbage that everyone is making it out to be, but it also looks so janky it's not funny. It's the kind of game mode you play once or twice and then move on to something more fleshed out.

By the way, You're in the Movies with the Vision Cam was on sale for $10 the other day (I can't remember where, but it was an online deal). I still didn't buy it.

You have to really play this one to understand it guys. Watching it looks incredibly boring, and pretty clumsy.

I hate to say it Ryan, but you're not very good at Resident Evil if you didn't even use the hotkeys for switching weapons. :)

That being said, you should give it a fair chance. Join some better-pinged rooms, play with a buddy, and most of all, learn the intricacies of it. It's actually a lot of fun, if a little bit awkward at times.
