Since this game is, as was Part 4, is not Resident Evil (and no, I don´t get tired of this discussion), I will dub it "Infected Shooter 2". And if I view it as another completely unrelated game, I can have fun with it. The controls are stiff and Muscleboy behaves like a tank (something they DID retain from the original titles) but I am still looking forward to playing it with a friend.
What I don´t like is, that they got rid of the merchants apparently, so you can just buy weapons and upgrades after each level (another thing they shouldn´t have done).

Finally, the setting: How much worse could it get I ask you? What setting could have been worse for such a game? A sunny flowergarden with bunnies, that´s what. Africa is VERY close to that.
Sunny bright levels. That is pretty much 100% pure Bullshit. IF1/RE4 at least got the setting right most of the time, but this time, they seem to throw everything out of the window just to be "fresh".
It will still be plenty of fun, but the good old days of the original series are obviously gone forever...which is sad.
