Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - It's fun to shoot stuff, really it is
Basically all that you do is go around and shoot things to try to make their heads blow up. It's pretty engaging. There isn't a whole lot of thought required, which is nice. Just shoot at everything that moves, and even things that don't. You can shoot pretty much everything in the environment to varying results. There is also a lot of content (worth unlocking) to unlock, and two player is quite fun. If you want to shoot some zombies and not have to worry about solving puzzles and decyphering plot details then this is the game for you.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Is a fun game
Game is a fun first person shooter game. My only complaint is you don't have much control over your view. You can look around a bit with the nunchuck, but there's not a lot of movement in any direction. This would be nice as the computer moves you and sometimes moves you too fast so I miss objects and would like to be able to still pick them up. Other than that it is a fun game and works well with the gun.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good but different resident evil
This game is really fun with a friend. However, be warned, it is not like other resident evils. This is a SHOOTING game, not a puzzle/action game like the others. It is very much like House of the Dead, but with more depth and goodies. I have played it for over 20 hours, but most of you will not play for that long. The game will likely take about 8-12 hours to beat all the sublevels and main levels. It does have replay value in that you can upgrade guns, somewhat like resident evil 4. Very fun with a friend as well, because you share health and must work together. However, I would not buy it for $50 plus tax. I got mine for $38 brand new. Look for a deal if you want to buy it, or just rent it and you could beat it in a few sittings.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Capcom, you blew it big time.
Coming off of RE4 to this is going to be a shock to anyone who enjoys the RE franchise.

My recommendation: Skip this game. It is beyond pathetic and its sole purpose is to generate revenue for Capcom. I can not believe over 1 million copies of this game were sold, but given how I was duped, I can see why.

People who don't read reviews are going to hate themselves for it later.

This game is on "rails" which means you don't move your character, it moves for you. Expect to see the "You are dead" message so often, you'll think it's a character in the game.

This game has a good concept, but lacks execution. One of the biggest problems is not being able to dodge. This alone is what kills your character as creatures often spit/throw/jump so often and the weapon can't take them all, especially since you MUST reload (or suffer a penalty of "load delay").

I wish I could meet the developers of this game, not only to demand my money back, but to put them on rails out of town to never develop a game again.

For shame, Capcom. For shame.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Just get RE4
If you are a huge Resident Evil fan, like me this game is not worth it. I purchased this game thinking that it was all my RE games but like house of the dead. I was mistaken, I beat this game only for the added story, they left out major scenes from every game. If you are looking for a good game that is completely worth it, Resident Evil 4 is the way to go.
