I played it a bit before, seem like a straight up steroid pumped shooter with stupid controls, forced co-op and none of Resident Evil 4 clever designs. I want to know if the full game worth the bandwidth ?

Co-op isn't forced as long as you don't play on Professional mode, partner AI handles itself quite well on Veteran, I gave her all the healing items and she did fine with the task. It's also important to give her weapons that use different type of ammo than those of yours. Inventory system can be a pain in the ass though, there's no denying that. Overall an enjoyable game and replayable at least once for all the upgrades and unlockable weapons. RE4 is of course better (if you don't count shitty porting and lack of mouse support) and much longer.

RE4 is a classic - one of those games that will still be talked about in glowing terms for decades to come. RE5 is shorter and not quite so well designed and atmospheric, but still a very enjoyable experience. So yeah, I'd say it's worth it.

If it weren't for some annoying quick time events I'd probably consider it to be a masterpiece. Now it's just great.

Its fun if you have a buddy to play with, if not. No. The game is riddled with terrible level design,story, and a horrid inventory system.

RE5 is shit, but at the same time, me and a friend of mine played it for hours. You'd be amazed, but in truth co-op makes the game goddamn interesting, much more so than single player. Story blows, more than other RE games. Horror element is completely gone, and instead replaced with some crappy action story. However, it's got niggers in it. And you're a whitey killing them. So it's not all bad.

It's decent, 4 was better, as was pointed out. Worth a play through.

It's a blast to play co-op. The shooting mechanics are crisp and satisfying and you'll have a lot of fun unlocking new guns. The boss battles are ridiculous though, so be prepared to visit Gamefags.

it was the purest video game logic.
Chris: "sheva's in trouble, i need to reach her"
little japanese dev dude: "chris is an action hero, let's have him show his pure desperation at the situation by having him hulk the fuck out and falcon punch the boulder"
Everyone: "BRILLIANT!"
