It's hard to justify dealing with the Leech Zombies without molotovs or incendiary grenades. Using anything else just feels like a waste of ammo IMO.

Also, use Rebecca to throw molotovs. She throws them faster and more accurately than Billy (the one thing she's better than him).

RE4 and RE 5 are my most fav. Currently got in with RERevelation 2 because of Claire and Barry's return.

Made it to the lab. Got all my items over there too. Would have been nice if there was an inventory expansion somewhere around the halway point in this game. The constant item management has been a bit of a pain since I got the grenade launcher. I wonder if and what they'll do about this in the remake.

Oh, that's good to know. Though I had Billy use the grenade launcher and Rebecca use the molotovs anyways.

I can undestand 4, but 5?

But i haven't even played that game, so who am I to argue...

Yeah. If I played them enough to memorize everything about them I'd be running past everything too.

5 is fucking awesome. i don't understand whatsoever why it got so much flak, other than "it's not like previous games". that doesn't mean anything to me ... it's a fantastic action game and one of the best games in the series. definitely a must-play for any re fan, especially if you like 4.

Well, if you followed the series up till that point, you kind of expected a horror game, not a sci-fi shooter. RE5 was basically the latter and killed any semblance of scariness that REmake and 0 gave a fair shot at building up.

i still don't get it. it's not what some people might have expected, ok. now judge it based on what it is—a fucking AWESOME game.

I mean, even if you do judge it as a standalone title, it's not flawless or anything. The new inventory is lame as hell, not being able to move while shooting sucks, the co-op setup is a double-edged sword, etc. It's a good game, but it's not THAT good.

i have complaints about every game ... re5 is one of the best i've ever played

i mean it's nowhere near as good as 4, but what game is

2015-11-24 05:08:23 pm

I'd say REmake and 2 are up there - at least relative to the rest of the series.

really hard for me to rank the re games since they're all so different

2015-11-24 05:09:38 pm

For me it's kind of easy until you throw Code Veronica into the mix... that game is weird.

the only main series game i haven't played

It's by far the campiest RE. It was also the first fully 3D one and ran at 60 FPS :D

rotfl wtf

i didn't know it was 60 fps

Well, the Dreamcast version and the HD port is. The PS2 version wasn't for some reason.

And I have zero clue about the GC port.

5 Has a lot of good aspects and story turns (4 has the perfect story and turns in terms of characters story and past line.

I found RE5 completely forgettable and it was the reason 6 was the first mainline RE I didn't bother with

Oh god. The part in the lab where you have to combine some chemicals from a hardly visible container with those you got ages ago in the mansion.

I'm so glad I found this by randomly pressing the investigation button while running along a wall here. I was about to go back to the mansion and search that place for clues regarding what to do with the encapsulated leech.

Yeah, that is one of the infamous troll parts in RE Zero. At least you're about to get rid of the Hookshot for good.

I thought the game was about to end and left my handgun in the lab. Just got the sewage plant map.

Looks like I was very wrong. >_>

Looks like I'm supposed to be mixing the blue and red chemicals soon. I've still got the red stuff from way earlier with me, and the only container I*'ve so far found in the vicinity is one with the red stuff. Hopefully I won't have to backtrack to get the blue chemical.......
