Resident Evil 5

Forever one of my favorite Resident Evil games. I can replay this literally hundreds of times without fail. I love my collection of eggs.

Review Changed since seeing Sheva Tribal Skin.

The game was easy and lack no real challenge compared to the other RE games. A real bland story and dated controls, but its fun with your friends... BUT that's not why you plan these games, you play them for the funny moments with your friends.

What can one say about a game that released way back in 2009. I felt the overall feeling was average, although I rather felt like I achieved something major by completing the game on Hard mode and on PC.

The missions were well set out and keeps one entertained and thinking. At times the lack of ammo was excruciating.

The bad:
poor graphics, even for 2009, compare it to COD at the time, this game lacked.
Very small item bag, cant keep allot of loot/weapons/ammo.
The co partner is extremly dumb, Never uses grenades, flashes , flame grenades.
The partner is always in your face, makes movement difficult whilst fighting.
The camera rotation feels very weird, takes awhile to get used to.

The good:
Good storyline
Challenging missions, puzzles
Good hard boss fights
Great main villian

Overall rating: 6/10

This was the first ever RE game I played, and I decided to play through it again. I had so much fun playing this game with my friend, it's probably one of the best co-op experiences I've had in a long time. It's definitely worth a play if you enjoy co-op games.

While its a terrible Resident Evil game, I still stand by the opinion that its a great action game!
It brings a conclusion to the Wesker story, and Resident Evil 6 shows how much the franchise suffers without a good antagonist. I haven't played RE7 or RE8 yet, so I'll remain hopeful that they manage to replace Wesker with a decent antagonist in those. But for what this game is worth, I'd say its a 3/10 for a Resident Evil game as it does NOTHING to justify its horror title, but as a game on its own, I'll have to judge it differently.

9/10

Resident Evil, Should'nt have to tell you how awesome this game is! But if i must, Id say this game is definately worth playing!!

Hope this game gets remake treatment and co op that would be nice.

I beat this back when it launched on Xbox 360 co op with a buddy, we had a blast playing through the levels and unlocking infinite ammo for the guns back in the day.

Going through it now solo on pc with some FoV mods, the story still stands up nicely but some of the game play hasn't aged the best, not the biggest fan of the laser sight aiming, would rather have something like RE4R.

DLCs are both solid.

Still a solid RE entry, can't go wrong with more Wesker and Jill.

even though this game shows its age, combined with tank control and real-time inventory management, it still makes me nostalgic and addicted, to the point that I've replayed it 5 times. Playing in single player mode is a bit difficult because Sheva's behavior is unpredictable (blocking the view and acting recklessly). However, this game remains my choice despite many other new gameplay-friendly series.

Very fun game, not really mentioned in any co-op game lists anywhere i could find, even tho it deserves a spot there in my opinion. Not perfect, the story is your typical RE/capcom game weirdness, and some of the gameplay is a bit janky but for a 15+ years old game it's still extremely enjoyable. Would recommend, both of us had fun.

Great sequel to Resident Evil 4 and it's a blast to play in Co-op. Only downside is its color palette. Yellow tint everywhere and high bloom. I sometimes felt like I was outside in the sun getting sunburned, maybe I should have played it with my sunglasses on.

I'm not a big fan of the duo system and inventory management in this game (though it's probably fun playing with a friend), but other than that it's a fairly enjoyable game with interesting lore to discover.

Also, I had fun finally experiencing the origin (look, power, voice lines) of "the Mastermind" (Albert Wesker) in Dead by Daylight.
"Seven minutes. Seven minutes is all I can spare to play with you."

Definitely my favorite Resident Evil of all. RE5 has been fiercely criticized for supposedly being dumbed down action game or even racist, and I wholeheartedly agree on both counts. Nothing makes me harder than putting Sheva in her skimpy little tribal costume, giving her an infinite sniper rifle, setting the difficulty to Amateur, and putting the controller down and just watching as she single handedly depopulates some shanty town in a desperate attempt to win my approval.

fun for co op with friends, still a pretty good game

F.E.A.R. Point man returns once again to destroy the forces of evil and drink the oceans wide. stuck in aboriginal australia Point man becomes a TRUE BLUE auzzie in this game to prove hes the best once and for all until necks time

When people aren't whispering in your ear that this game is trash, and you enjoy it more so as an action game with Resident Evil characters, it's really fun. But FUCK Chainsaw People.

Jogo bom, a parte do terror acaba ofuscada pela ação. Mas é um ótimo game em geral. SUPER recomendável jogar com um amigo online ou em tela dividida.
A Capcom também merece os parabéns pelos últimos updates que revigoraram bastante o game, mesmo ele já sendo bem datado.

Great fun, bring friend for complete global saturation;)

this game is not very good if you look at it as resident evil. it's just okay. BUT OH BOY IS IT FUN WHEN U HAVE A FRIEND TO PLAY WITH. co-op shenanigans deliver so hard on this game. Also recommend putting chris in the warrior fit because it makes every cutscene hilarious and so good.

Still good after nearly 20 years. Recommend playing it with your friend too! Makes it more fun.

I play solo and this game for a solo player is horrible. The AI is garbage and always in the way. Trying to manage your inventory while in the middle of a fight makes for pretty much a loss because the game doesn't pause. Also you stop moving for all reload animations which just gets your stuck and killed more often that it should. So far this is the worst RE game out of the main titles.

Completely globally saturated me.10/10 would punch a boulder again

Resident Evil 5 could sure use a proper remaster although this game still holds up if you do not mind the tank controls.

the multiplayer pvp matches sadly do not work anymore, but the game itself is perfect and gives nostalgia
also there is wiskas, but he only has seven minutes to spare :(

man the time pass too fast i still remenber that the highest critique of any shooter is that it was similar to cod(even tho it wasnt) i really recommend this game

I actually enjoyed this game a lot more than I thought I would! It definitely wasnt the best resident evil, but the gameplay was fun, the story was good, plus Jill, Wesker and Sheva were in this game <3

The game doesn't give me that feeling what first and second RE did, but it still interesting by the story line.

While it completely does away with the horror, I still feel that the story and gameplay are good enough to consider this a worthwhile conclusion to the Wesker saga.

Playing this one growing up, grinding mercenaries with my family and trying to get a perfect run and playing with my brother a lot this games a classic to me. love it.

Imagine how fucking awesome far cry 2 could've been if there were ambient encounters with the hostile indigenous tribes, some bone tomahawk type shit. And the wildlife simulation of later games with all those hunting/crafting mechanics. Yeah, that would be pretty dope.

Anyways, this is a peak RE game. Even better than 4, damn.

Fun RE game to play with friends, though not if you're looking for a specifically "Survival Horror" experience. More fun with Co-op, than solo though it can be done that way. Also, this one has Wesker as the main villain so that's a plus, for me at least. There's also buff af Chris and Sheva, good character personally too bad we're probably never see her again.

-decent storyline but sometimes gets boring at some chapters it feels like the same
-The graphics is good from a 2009 game but i dont like the green filter thats my opinion
-bosses are similar to each other except for one i really liked no spoilers
-and as always resident evil is fun when it has replay value and how to relief the player
-i played it solo but iam sure its fun when you play with a friend

what i really dont like about this game is:
-sometimes clunky ai partner
-a bit more action than horror
-the qte sometimes make u want rage quit because of the randomness
- camera and sensitivity is kinda weird but you will get used it after a long play time

overall its a decent game i will give a solid 7/10

One of the best co-op game I ever played. And best of all, you can play in couch co-op! The intensity of combat is arcade like, and the story is fun to watch.

i used to play this with my mom when i was a kid, and now i got my friend to play the game with me because of the good memories. it's a fun experience in co-op!!

boss fights weren't great (a bit broken) and for some reason, this version of the game doesn't have a lot of the QTEs; the QTE scenes played, but it didn't prompt us to press anything. the camera movement was also giving me awful motion sickness during the first few chapters and it was genuinely torturous.

This game is enjoyable as a shooter experience but it's not a good Resident Evil game. Everything that makes the franchise shine isn't present here, not much to say, to me this is the worst game of the franchise it's just ridiculous. Recommend it on sale you will have some hours of challenge and you can hop on with a friend on co-op.

Sheva all the way. Besides of that, some Boss Fights are ridiculous hard. Anyhow with some mods, this game is fun

I love the way this game plays with action gameplay, a bit goofy but it tried its best

Fun game. If you like to play Resident Evil, then this will be fun especially with a friend.

Spent hour to figure out how to play coop online, rest of the time gameplay - with crashes. Gamepad control is fine, however, PC control is a war crime. Refunded.

as a newgen player its a nice refreshing game the sheva bot sucks but once you get behind that the game is very good possible one of the best resident games ive played so far

Smash game aint my favourite RE but is amazing like it was so so so fun to play if its on discount get it without hesitation

Resident Evil 5 was great. The story was great. Damn, Chris could punch the boulder. The graphics are amazing and nostalgic. The co-op was great, but it was better to play with someone or friends. AI really sucks sometimes that didn't follow you and their combat system was meh. I always choose Chris, because I like him more than Sheva. The puzzles are great and easy. This game didn't feel like a horror game anymore. It's like playing co-op action adventure fighting with Las Plagas and bosses. Untold Stories Bundle is fantastic. Lost In Nightmares DLC And Desperate Escape was great and short. The Mercenaries Reunion And Versus Mode are fine. I am not a fan of Versus Mode. It was fun playing this game. 8/10

This RE5 is still masterpiece ofc, but steam version isnt soo good. You can use this link to play RE5 free to play lan co-op here: https://radmin-club.com/other-games/resident-evil-how-to-play-in-lan-for-free/ You will aslo get automatically RE5 gold edition without any buying ;) Enjoy!

This game opens with a close-up of Sheva's ass. Mid way through, Jill rips her top open to let her girls breathe. It all ends with a shirtless Wesker in a volcano telling Chris how he really feels. It's bizarre. Great game.

Best Resident Evil game ever made.... I'm so glad i can play this Resident Evil part as a Coop - Online story mode and the rest modes.. Thanks to you i enjoy every spent minute playing it with my wifey and thanks to you CAPCOM.. <333 It makes this game even more and more better every second that i spent on it <333333333 My most beloved Resident Evil game out of all parts... Love this game so much and trust me a lot... Capcom you are the best devs ever... and i mean it... <333 Looking forward for more of your working projects in the future... <333 Can't wait to see Resident Evil 5 Remake.. and all the main character's having a new , fresh look... <33333 Highly recommeding it to all of you people this Resident Evil 5 game. Believe me , you won't be dissapointed once you download it and play.

It's a very fun and sometimes flawed coop game, highly recommend playing it with someone!

Protip: If you're on the noodle boss fight that requires a FlameThrower, Cap your fps to 30 or else the FlameThrower would be defective.

Great game,love how the story goes how it ends.Ai is sometimes stupid, sensivity is fucked up.But i can say that this is my favourite RE game
Solid game 9/10

A solid and enjoyable installment in the Resident Evil franchise, this game clearly takes inspiration from the beloved good old Resident Evil 4. With a stronger emphasis on action, the gameplay remains engaging despite a few quirks that may feel frustrating at first. However, as you adapt, it becomes clear that these design choices were intentional and serve as reminder that this game was released so long ago.

The story delivers a satisfying conclusion to the arc of the iconic villain Albert Wesker, providing deeper insight into his motivations and backstory.

Would recommend to RE fans, as this game moves forward the story of many characters.

Great game with arguably the best cut scene in all of gaming history.
Press F for respect? Nah, Smash F to Smash a Fkn BOULDER
10/10

Resident Evil 5 is a game that has to be experienced on co-op (even though it’s possible to play solo). It was obviously developed with co-op play in mind first and foremost, the game has many co-op features and remains one of the best choices for those who are looking for a co-op experience.

At first glance RE5 might look like a generic zombie-themed third-person shooter but don’t be fooled by such an impression. Gameplay of RE5 stands out and feels different mostly because it heavily relies on inventory management. It’s always satisfying to finish the mission with spare ammo remaining in your inventory. Ammunition in the game is scarce and this forces the player to use the gun only when it’s absolutely necessary. What often happens is that you use the weapon only to stun enemies and then you finish them off with melee attacks which have unique animations and vary across different characters you can control.

In-game currency allows you to buy new weapons and equipment but for more ammo you’ll often need to go back to the campaign. Farming resources by going back to previous missions adds replay value to Resident Evil 5 next to various collectibles you can find or higher ranks you can achieve. There’s also modifiers, character outfits and other kinds of content to unlock as you continue to play. This further expands the scope of a game which otherwise has a pretty linear and straightforward campaign.

When it comes to the campaign, RE5 is set in Africa during the late 2000s. A new zombie virus breaks out and the main characters Chris Redfield together with his partner Sheva Alomar go after the bioterrorists responsible for the incident. The story is over the top, doesn’t take itself too seriously, introduces entertaining larger than life characters and that’s the fun part of it all. Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition also includes a couple of DLC stories which, for example, will give you a chance to play as series old-timer Jill Valentine.

Aside from the campaign and DLCs, you can also try out different variations of the Mercenaries mode (basically horde mode) which introduce a larger roster of characters. Among them are villains and protagonists of other games from the series, all of whom have their unique fighting styles and voice lines. There’s also a Versus mode where these characters can fight each other online from what I understand but I can’t say anything meaningful about that mode because I was never able to find a match while playing on Steam.

Back to Mercenaries mode - it is especially great because it gives you something to enjoy if your co-op partner is not available. It simply requires you to survive waves of enemies for a couple of minutes and in this way it creates the possibility to briefly hop in and enjoy the game after a long break and without making it some sort of a huge commitment. While playing you can unlock new maps, characters, and go after a higher score. As mentioned before, it is really commendable that a fairly straightforward and linear shooting game offers a fairly large amount of content and ways to experience it.
