Gameplay is weighted almost entirely towards action-packed gunplay, and the most significant scares come from unexpected attacks in the heat of battle. In the last four years, games like Gears of War have built upon the foundation of third-person shooters, and with its ill-fitting linearity, insta-death QTEs and occasional me-too cover system, Resi 5 at times feels like it's trying to play catchup with conventions its forebear helped create. At around 10-12 hours long, Resident Evil 5 is about half as big as Resi 4.
So, we should probably get the big negatives out of the way first. And comparisons to one of the most celebrated games of all time are always going to skew your judgement. Conversely, the biggest flaw with Resident Evil 5 is that it is, if anything, far too similar to its lauded predecessor to avoid comparison. If Resident Evil 4's reboot of Capcom's famous Survival Horror franchise proved one thing, it's that a sequel can be completely different from every other game in the series, so long as it happens to be five-star stunning. You are now entering the world of Action Horror.
