Too many gun toting idiots in RE4's regular duders. Also RE4 has wolverine duders, the monks, those god forsaken dogs, better chainsaw guys... I could go on.
Also Luis! Sure, RE4 doesn't really have Wesker, except for awesome Wesker in Mercs!
One more thing; Besides boulder punching RE4 has much better QTEs. Especially the knife fight.

Okay I'll give you that. I do like the end QTE's for RE5, you know with the jet.
And Luis is pretty awesome. Plus the helicopter guy that gets blown up. I loved him.

Wesker's melee attacks are super fucking sweet so Mercs is good
Controls are better because you can sidestep
Weapons are better because you can get a gatling gun
Regular enemies were exactly the same mechanically, plus a few new ones (executioner, pod guy, spiders and such). I guess RE4 is better because it doesn't have quite as blatant racism?
Story was admittedly far more entertaining in RE4 because it had a Napoleonic midget who taunted you
Bosses were good up until the final one for RE5, so I guess RE4 has that
I guess it's more of a toss up than I thought! But to say that one is clearly better than the other is stupid
I wouldn't be too optimistic, though I think it'd be a pretty awesome addition. Especially given the numerous automatic weapon choices.
Plus, you know, neckbreak.
*mumbles* They should have an ultimate mercenary mode with all the decent characters
I was missing Ada Wong and Hunk from the roster.
Yes, I'm sure I'm a dirty communist for liking Ada Wong, but I enjoyed playing as her in Mercenaries. In my defense, 'liking' might be the bad word, since I don't think I'm really fond of...well, anyone in the RE games, character-wise. Just haven't grown on me...yet. No one stands out.
I am yet to own RE5 due to lack of moneys, but having played it several times, I can say it is pure sex (Though the switching up of X and Square had me confused at first). Shitty thing is, my buddy spoiled one thing I certainly did not want to hear.
Wesker has a Keanu thing going on in RE5 also right?
he had that ever since code: veronica
I'm starting Code Veronica soon and watched Wesker's report the other night, which basically has a trailer for CV at the end. It looks crazy. Like, Metal Gear crazy.
I think it's a given that whomever played the majority of RE5 co-op has a much better regard for than us who didn't

I played it all Single Player and I liked the game a lot actually. I thought it was a pretty good challenge, albeit the bug things later on in the game frustrated the hell out of me (because they would often om nom nom the AI partner to death).
Fuck those giant cockroaches in 5. Oh hey I shot his arm off so he do his one hit kill attack.
Oh wait it grows back almost instantly awesome.
Going through with the unlimited rocket launcher made me cackle like a madman when I blew them up and saw their dismembered limbs twitching on the ground.
"As a stand-alone game, Super Street Fighter IV won't be compatible online with its predecessor. However, Capcom has said that the game won't be a full-priced game, and the publisher plans to offer a special bonus to gamers who already own Street Fighter IV."
Anyways. Back on topic with RE5. Ill buy whatever releases for it because MAN did I play that game to hell.

Yay, my PC copy arrived. Should I dive onto online co-op without a mic or is Sheva's AI not that bad? Normal or Hard? I've played Normal RE4 but didn't try Professional because I couldn't be bothered to snipe ganados with the Red 9 all over again (I actually watched a speed run prior to hunting down a used copy of RE4, so I was determined to save cash by bypassing the rifle and just sniping with a pistol ).

Don't need a mic if you're playing with strangers, most people on co-op don't seem chatty. The main problem with playing co-op from a fresh start is that nearly everyone has maxed out weapons and knows the game like the back of their hands. It dilutes the excitement and terror when your partner runs ahead of you and mows down everything in their path. I suggest playing it through once fully solo unless you reach a part that you find too tough, at which you get a co-op partner to help you ONLY for that part.

Also co-op is awesome
Chicago Typewriter is a million times better than the gatling gun. RE5 is missing the bug dudes, the claw dudes, the chainsaw ladies, REGENERATORS, IRON MAIDENS, and a ton of other awesome units. I can't believe anyone would say the regular dudes in RE5 are better some how.
urahonky, you're good people and all, and you're right, co-op certainly is fun.
Setting, weapons, controls, bosses, regular enemies, and yes, even story is all better in RE4, by a long shot. That outweighs co-op.
Hell even the merc levels and characters are better!
I disagree with some of that especially controls and weapons which I think other than the Chicago Typewriter that RE5 has way better weapons, I really liked both sets of bosses in RE4 and RE5, I would say it's equal but I thought the bosses were great in RE5 and coop just added to it but I am also of the opinion that RE5 is almost as good as RE4.

I'm sorry I didn't read any further because this didn't make sense
This is anti-sense
Can you properly yell "GET TO THA CHOPPA" while firing the Chicago Typewriter?
I don't know if this applies here, but you should make sure that Sheva doesn't have the stun baton when you're up against chainsaw guys or anything that might maul her in hand-to-hand.

seriously that is some weapons-grade wrong right there
wait he said RE4 has better everything? in that case he's absolutely right
Thanks XoB.
I'll give you weapons, bosses, and story. Though... Maybe story... I like Wesker enough that I might push it above RE4, but then you've got Leon...
Hmm.
Also Luis! Sure, RE4 doesn't really have Wesker, except for awesome Wesker in Mercs!

fuuuuuck wesker
he is so plain and bland and boring and because he's attached to RE's main plot he's also irreparably stupid
at least saddler had a delightful taste for camp

I was squealing with glee when I was running around as him in mercenaries in RE4, falcon punching guys and stomping on their heads
and his voice is awesome
p.s. If you are sidestepping then I take it you are using the Gears-style controls? EWWWW
Wesker's voice is so much better.
Wesker is just stylish in Mercs
He's my favorite character to use

He's a Bond villain, basically
His entire plot was to destroy the world
I mean, Saddler was a better villain, but Wesker is still pretty funny

I am yet to own RE5 due to lack of moneys, but having played it several times, I can say it is pure sex (Though the switching up of X and Square had me confused at first). Shitty thing is, my buddy spoiled one thing I certainly did not want to hear.
hunk=god
I have to play Resident Evil Survivor. I like how the main looks in that - but I have no idea how dull his personality is.
I'm starting Code Veronica soon and watched Wesker's report the other night, which basically has a trailer for CV at the end. It looks crazy. Like, Metal Gear crazy.
The intro was sweet, though.
Anyone want to beta read a paranormal mystery novella? Here's your chance.
stream
actually Wesker's plot was to mutate everyone in the world so that only the fittest would survive
basically he's bio-Hitler
I'm on the same boat. I think I was spoiled by RE4wii.
That said, I found RE5 to be disappointing on release because it wasn't as good as re4.
Fired it up a few weeks ago however, and it was much more fun. Then the second 360 died. Fuck.
Beat me on 360: Raybies666
I remember when I had time to be good at games.
Oh wait it grows back almost instantly awesome.

"Alright"

No?
Then it sucks and the Gatling Gun is better

HAT SPIN.
That's a property of the costume, not the weapon
What you're saying is the costume was better than the RE5 costumes, which I can't argue with at all because you're right
PSN ID : DetectiveOlivaw | TWITTER | STEAM ID | NEVER FORGET
But thats down to me being a fan of Leon over Chris.
Lets be honest, Leon saying "You're small time" to Saddler is one of the best moments in gaming history.
RE5 - 90's Action movie
Sheva's AI reaally sucks against chainsaw dudes.
And I played through the game twice
I don't get it
