People stand still, crouch prone or shoot." This is going to be easy…

Circana data shows Resident Evil 5 as the best selling Resident Evil game in the US, ahead of Resident Evil 4 remake and Village.
So the most successful RE is the one where a white man is killing Africans.
This can't be real.

New leaks from Dusk Golem detail cancelled Resident Evil projects, including a Rebecca focused Revelations game, while stating no Resident Evil 5 remake is in development.
Capcom's willingness to invest in experiments and scrap them sets them apart form many other developers (Nintendo have a similar methodology). Far too often companies push a game setting or game mechanic that is just not that good and the final product is middling or poor.

Dusk Golem claims a Resident Evil 5 remake is not coming this year, with a Code Veronica remake expected instead.
Hopefully if and when they do a RE5 remake, they give it the RE3 remake treatment, because this is certainly one title that I don't want a faithful remake of.
Stop complaining and B*tching if you don't like the game don't get it for PS3.
I played RE1-RE4 including the GC remakes,and after playing RE5 in 2009,it's a goddamn shame that it still controls like a last-gen game.
It looks amazing,but that's all it has going for it.The story is very flawed and the setting is wrong,the way the Inventory management is setup is unnecessarily difficult,and to top it off,the controls are sluggish,clunky,and succeed only in bringing forth a feeling of "This sh!t is outdated".
I'm going to give it a 7.5/10 when I review it
I don't understand the hate. The game is fun and the demo was great. The controls are there to build fear of combat. We don't need RE to become Dead Rising. The game isn't scary but I think most of that has to be because of the abondance of Sunlight. The game is a blas t to play with co-op. I had a fantastic time and I can't believe people are bashing it. In most zombie movies the main characters are trapped somewhere and mobility often becomes and issue. It's a good game.
I agree with your point. Next generation should mean more than just upgraded graphics, gameplay should evolve also with the times or even innovate. That being said, I still like the demo and I'm familiar with the controls so it's not a huge issue for me. It will be to people who aren't familiar with previous games though.
Maybe you need to set your gaming standards higher ^ ,if Capcom want to make RE an Action game then that's no problem at all,but give us some controls that make the experience smoother and more enjoyable,I don't want to have to walk up right next to a Zombie/Mutated African set in the WRONG setting,only to swing my Knife and realize that I need to walk up to him a little more.
