The PC version of
Resident Evil 5 doesn't use the hated Games for Windows Live any more! Well okay it
does if you want it to, but a few months ago it also made the transition to Steamworks. So to celebrate, today on
Super Adventures I'm going to give the game a few hours and write down some of the things that come into my head while I'm playing.
I might have mentioned once or twice in my
Resident Evil 2 article last week that I'm not a huge fan of classic survival horror games, and I may have mentioned a few reasons for it too. I think the core of it though is that I've got no interest in being scared, and when you strip out the tension there's little left to enjoy in the mediocre combat, awkward camera angles, and endless backtracking.
Resident Evil 5 on the other hand has very little to do with survival horror, so we've always gotten on pretty well... I
think. It's been half a decade since I played the game though so it could be that my memory lying to me again. I can't even remember if the sinister announcer is going to say "Resident Evil... 5" when I press start. Though he better had.
