Resident Evil 5

Resident Evil 5 - PS3

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Doesn't live up to expectations
Engaging story  
Epic boss fights  
Intense action  
Addictive gameplay  
Fantastic multiplayer  
Entering the world of survival horror .. for the fifth time!

Just after my graduation from college my dad took me to the mall to buy me
a Playstation 3 for a graduation gift.
I was fighting in my mind what game i should get first RE5 or MGS4? hmm.. can't decide on my own because both games seems so great.
In the end i picked RE5 thinking that id get MGS4 some other time and you know what? I never regretted it! i got my Platinum Trophy in 2 weeks.
The first minutes in the game immediately got me hooked! mostly because of the mind blowing visuals and the awesome gameplay.
It was pretty cool that they had "Chris Redfield" back to play as one of the lead roles (although I'd prefer Leon Kennedy, well that's just me) and adding a new member to the RE family "Sheva Alomar", both of them looking good with amazing graphics.
The action is pretty intense! from the jaw dropping physical attacks to blowing up some random oil tanks killing a whole horde. The controls seems awkward at first (I dunno if its just me because I got the Asian PS3 model) but once you get the hang of it you can fly by with ease.
I would also like to point out the boss battles even the cutscenes. i don't mind wasting countless hours watching every cutscene because they are just so damn good!. The boss battles here reminds you how a boss battle should feel and look like, although boss battles become more easier as you unlock some of the powerful guns, well that only disappoints me about this game its one of those games that as you progress the game gets easier.
And finally the game has a fantastic story line, RE5 explains how the Virus Outbreak phenomenon happened as you progress through the game, you can also unlock the history of resident evil on your achieves.
Buy this game, trust me its worth it!
