From HandGuns to Magnums, to heavy Machine guns to the light guns, from the Snipers to the grenade launcher.And how can one seperate Rocket launcher from the franchise. You will have a lot of weaponry in the game. Gameplay wise i must say RE5 is pretty much similar to RE4. How you will use Sheva as a partner will actually help you to bail out of certain situations. Also Sheva has crucial role in one of final boss battles where you have to use a bit of your sense rather than your bullets. For instance there was no way I would have taken down the huge sea monster in one of the chapters. The most innovative part about RE is most of the boss battles that take place cannot be completed without a partner. She will heal you when you are going to die, she will fill you with ammo if required, help you when you are being attacked by a zombie. This being said, RE is all about ammo conservation, and this logic applies here too.Ī lot of talk has gone about how the game will work with a partner. With Sheva’s inventory being accesible you really have a large amount of ammuntion at your disposal. You can combine items just like the previous games, shift them and even give items like ammunition, herbs, etc to Sheva. Whats cool though is the fact that you can alsoaccess Sheva’s Items too. Now this is one of the innovations i liked about RE5, the idea of the action being continued without any pauses just adds more tension and adrealine rush to the game. This is a big departure from the previous games where you have to pause the screen and than select your item. The inventory now opens on the screen without the action being paused. The inventory system is one of the major changes done to the game. Now the zombies feel and react the same way as those in Resident Evil 4.Though they have a better understanding and give you a few more dodges than the ones who were infected by the Las Plagas in RE4. As soon as you land up, you will immediately meet up with your “partner” Sheva Alomar.Īfter a while things go wrong and the innocent looking people all of sudden turn in to mindless zombies. You will take the role of series long time favourite Chris Redfield. So the game starts with the player going to a fictional state of Kijiju. Now before reading further, I must make you aware that i might reveal some of the plotlines if it is essential to the review. Now coming from the lines of a great predecessor, Resident Evil 5 doesn’t truly redefine the action genre but i must admit that it has totally revolutionized the franchise. The game not only redefined the standards of action and survival horror genre but also revolutionzied the Resident Evil series with it’s new over the shoulder style of shooting, ability to customize weapons and much more. In 2005 Resident Evil 4 came out on the GameCube followed by the Playstation 2 version.
