Well ofcourse the makers of capcom are gonna defend their control scheme lol.. Even with all the complaints about the demo capcom still didnt wanna fix their control scheme.. Lazy mother fuckers, how you gonna defend a company like that? Thats the whole reason for a demo i thought was to get some feedback and build up some hype.. They built up the hype, but did nothing with all the feedback/suggestions they got from their fans.

Cuzzo, I don't think you understand. It's supposed to be like that. They designed it that way pimpin this isn't a case of bad coding or a glitched out control scheme with awkward camera angle. The control scheme was designed and implemented to create more "oh shit here they come what do I do?" moments, and considering this game is so removed from the genre they help make famous, they had to keep something.

I too still play this game, and enjoy it very much.. I'm on my 2nd play thru, but it jus really sucks you gotta stop and shoot, hold down like 3 bottons to knife someone, no relaod botton, and the weapon menu shouldnt be in real time, i mean, really that is annoying as fuck lol.. It jus seems like a next gen game with last gen controls.

Thats the thing, this is not your regular run and gun game. Stopping and shooting creates tension, no reload button creates tension, and the selections of weapons and items in real time is supposed to create tension. All of these things work together to create the "oh shit here they come I better not fumble or fuck up" moments. This is what makes RE what it is. Now mind you, if the company is going to take the game into the action realm like they did with this one, they probably should scrap the control scheme. However, that will make RE just another 3rd person shooter and no longer survival horror.

No i understand what capcom was aiming for.. I'm jus saying they failed at acheiving this "tension" feel you're talkin about, most people will agree it's more of a "frustrateing" feel..

And i guess you're right, this game isnt you're "regular" run and gun game.. The whole stop and shoot thing makes it feel like a run and gun game back from the late 90's lol.

Just my opinion.. If you like the stop and gun feature then more power to you.. It actually dosnt bother me too much, but i completley understand why it would bother other people.

Capcom caught more than a little flak for charging extra for Resident Evil 5's VS mode. Their excuse? That it was "beyond the initial scope of Resident Evil 5".

Seems Capcom may have a strange way of defining what was in the "initial scope" because, as anyone who has downloaded the add-on will have found, the DLC weighs in at a massive 1.8MB on 360, and an even more impressive 351KB on PS3. Leading some to suggest that, well, you're not really downloading VS mode at all. You're just downloading a key and some extra code that unlocks content that was already on the disc. The disc you already paid for.

Course, this practice is nothing new. Nor, if true, would it be entirely unexpected, as Capcom had previously said that VS mode "makes use of the assets that exist in the game".

The counter-point - as many of you have already pointed out - is that both file sizes (1.8MB and even 351KB) are bigger than other, previous "unlock codes". And if the game mode only needed new code, and not new assets, then a small update may well cover everything that was needed.

As of writing, Capcom have yet to respond to our requests for clarification or comment.

Just beat it last nite (PS3. Normal mode. solo/no co-op.). Awesome game. Haven't played Mercenaries mode yet and/or started a new game with my weapons. The only weapon I have fully upgraded is the VZ61. After beatin' the game I have infinite ammo 4 that weapon now and it unlocked the Gatling Gun (Chris exclusive/only. $50,000.). I'm a start a new game soon on veteran's mode.

I think RE4 is leaps and bounds better, storywise and jus the overall flow of the game.. But then again that could be because i enjoyed useing the WIImote to pop heads a lot..

Still RE5 was a kick ass game :)
