    I was unimpressed with the demo until I read reviews about RE5 which says its good according to OPM but I think that they are a bit biased toward PS3 games.

    But RE5 isn't a PS3 exclusive, and OXM also gave it a good score.

    I'm kind of mixed about it- it's ok, and it's a lot of fun in co-op, but I still think the aiming isn't as tight/good as it should be. There's something that just doesn't seem right.

    By the way, is that guy with the chainsaw at the end even possible to kill? My friend and I loaded a very number of shots to no avail.

    I enjoyed the demo. It had slightly different controls than RE4 and that threw me off for a second since I mastered and memorized the RE4 controls. I only played it once but Im sure after a few more minutes of play it'll all set back in. It might be because I sucked it up on the controls but the games difficulty was turned up a notch from RE4 for sure.

    Ya i agree.  The demo was not that great.  The scary atmosphere was gone.

    It wasn't scary, but it was still tense.

    How the hell could you get Sheva to die, she was pretty damn resistant even with no weapons

    She dies easily if your not watching out for her especially when the big axe dude starts swinging around like crazy

    Yeah- Sheva's died on me a few times, but shes fairly capable. It seems to help if you either keep an eye on her or keep moving (and call her to come with you), she's not a problem. While I'm not totally impressed with her AI, it wasn't a total trainwreck, which it easily could've been.

    Yeah nothing sold me on this game at all. I'm gonna give it a rent, maybe, but just that for a single co-op playthrough then I'd be done with it.
