I'm a big fan of the RE series and I liked this game very much. I'm also a bit "disappointed" because I think that the 4th episode (wich in fact was very very good) was a bit better than this one. It was longer, creepier and in my opinion had a better "atmosphere" and story. That's the reason why I give RE5 "only" 4 stars. Anyway I repeat that I liked this game and the port has been perfectly made: the game ran flawlessy on my system (E8400 + HD4850) with great graphics and sound. I started playing with the X-box360 controller beacause I thought it was the best control-system, but then I immediately switched to the mouse&keybord setting because I found it to be more "user-friendly".
Don't wait anymore: if you are a RE fan this is a must buy!

this is one of those games which is really fun first time, but playing it again you'll find yourself wanting to play something else :/ the game play can be intense, you get the typical controls which make it awkward trying to move your character, and lack of big weapons. all the levels are predictable, its the kind of levels you'd expect to have in a game like this, which kinda ruins it. i sense this game was trying to put forth a strong political message. overall this is not the best in the R.E series, still reccomend it for any fan of the games though. honestly i prefer the silent hill franchise

From starting this game i had a very pessimistic frame of mind, playing RE4 for the whole of 10 minutes before putting it into storage to collect dust, as the controls/graphics and story seemed to make little sense.

But my initial thoughts when i started RE5 were fantastic, the graphics are great, its realy quite impressive. The controls arnt that bad, yes they arnt great like alot of the massively succesful shooters, but in my opinion i didnt have much difficultly and seemed to quickly adapt to the odd control setup. The story itself seemed quite engaging, it is a typical RE linear game, but i never once got bored playing this, which in my opinion earns it top marks!

Alot of the reviews seem to bash the controls, but they realy arnt that bad, its a good game with a very engaging story and brilliant graphics and i would deffinatly recommend anyone who loves shooters and zombies to buy this game, you wont be dissapointed.
