Can you actually beat the demo chainsaw boss? Because if you can, he's hardas heck, tons of gun shots, 10 or so shotguns, 5? red barrels, 4 uppercuts, and a couple knives. How the hell do you beat this guy?
Edit: as for my impressions of the game,. it's good, but it's not what people said RE4 was, not even close. I don't know how it stacks up, but while it is good, it's basically how I've viewed RE4 from the sidelines. Neat, but AAish I'd say. Dead Rising is better I think (which really is a heavily modified Resident Evil in a way)

Resident Evil 5 follows series alum Chris Redfield as he journeys into West Africa with his new partner, Sheva Alomar, fighting Las Plagas-infested enemies called the Majini.
Is the chainsaw guy beatable?
Yes hes very beatable. I honestly found him a bit easier than the Executioner on the first level. Once you clear out the area of other guys pretty well, and save all the barrels to shoot at the perfect time, just make sure you have plenty of ammo. Keep shooting him in the face, and go and hit him when X prompts and he stumbles. Probably a bit harder playing with an a.i partner if you indeed were. I did it with a friend.
Mainly you just gotta make sure you got the sufficient ammo ahead of time, and don't waste it on the normal enemies and save it for him. I ran out of ammo myself the one time, and my friend had to finish him off while I kinda kited him away. Yeah almost forgot the grenades, I had one and a friend had one(or an incend nade, can't remember which) but they definitely helped as well, but if you have ammo its definitely possible to beat him without them.
I didn't play the demo long, but that guy and the executioner are tough as hell. I screwed up by getting too far from Shiva, and she got wasted while I was still shooting from a safe distance.
Excecutioner simply slaughtered me when I wasn't looking:P. I'll have to go back to the demo and give it another shot.

And you really should get RE4 on the Wii. It's the definitive version of the franchises best game.
"But you still have to get Resident Evil 4 on the Wii.^ No, for me, Umbrella Chronicles is that bad. It's so awful. All I could think to myself was how they could possibly have screwed up a light gun game (the answer is slow shooting and general slowness really)

^ they do have the RE4 control setup in this, it's control style B I believe (rotate camera with r thumb, r trigger aim, x shoot)
"SmugDarkLoser said:I think it's that I prefer more arcadey ones.

Just didn't get much fun out of this. It's like they wanted to be a shooter that was limited to rails, it just felt weird.
"SmugDarkLoser said:This. My username comes from a boss in RE4, that should tell you something:P."^ they do have the RE4 control setup in this, it's control style B I believe (rotate camera with r thumb, r trigger aim, x shoot)"dude just get re4 it will blow your mind"
use your grenades, shoot then run up and punch. its pretty easy.
I've yet to kill him once after trying 2 or 3 times. I find the Hammer guy was easier for some reason. And yeah definitely get RE4 for the Wii it is honestly one of the best games ever
