    Also are you unfamiliar with pretty much everything in the RE style from the era when the first games came out

    Because it's not fair to call something that old ugly incarnate

    Man I beat this today with my girlfriend. All we managed to max out was the M9. Going to do another play through next week and try to max out the Handguns and the Magnums.

    Also she made me get the Stun Rod for the achiement.

    Get the stun rod. Running around Chainsaw guys just wacking them with it is so much fun.

    I hate seeing people complain about the gameplay for RE5.

    You can't run and shoot!? What sort of shitty game does that?
    metadust said that to me once while we were playing GTA online

    the irony was palpable, as if you could reach out and grab it.

    I'm pretty sure you were the one bitching about the controls, I have no problem with them, I even like them at times, reminds me of winback.

    Because thats what it is, RE5 is fucking Winback with zombies.

    Been playing through this with the roommate, liking it very much so far. Just got past the motorcycle gang cut scene when you meet up with Delta Team.

    He's playing with the machine gun and the shotgun, and I'm spending money on maxing out the handgun. So far it's a good combo.

    Main thing that I hated about the game (that I overall pretty much liked as a game) was the inventory system.

    In RE4 you could buy a bigger suitcase and you had enough space to carry shit. I realize a big part of making it tense and more difficult is making it so you can't carry much, but seriously you have to spend way too much time mixing and matching different things to make room for a few more bullets that you're going to load up immediately anyway. Then if you can't make room you have to call your partner over, get them to hold some shit, or exchange some stuff with them and oh my gosh it was so frustrating and took way too long sometimes.

    Have a full inventory but need that ammo on the ground for your empty gun? Can't just pick it up and load it all in one motion. You have to discard or use something else. Make room for those bullets and then load them in.

    And yeah your partner is basically your second suitcase but having to constantly barter with that asshole is annoying.

    It just ruined the pacing for us several times, that and when you're fighting like two gatlin gun carrying fucking zombies you dont have time to combine ammo, barter with your friend and complete a game of monopoly just to get enough room to pick up a few more bullets.

    I will say that is some bullshit that you gotta ask your partner to hold some herbs and shit cause you need some MG ammo or something.

    Or ask them to hold some bullets so you can mix some shit together to make the room for bullets.

    I had fun with the boss fights playing on normal. Had to try one or two again a few times, but yeah on the whole normal is pretty relaxed. Not sure what difficulty you're playing at?

    Normal. For the most part I only died from instakills. The game keeps you pretty stocked on herbs and there's way more first aid sprays than in RE4. There's a lot less money though.

    And one thing that sucked. When we beat it, his roommate decided he wanted to take part in the new game + so he signed in on his profile.

    And the new guy was limited to the single starting pistol and a few rounds while the first player (my friend who started the NG+) had tons of shit from the previous playthrough.

    We thought, oh that's okay, we'll just give him some of the extra guns we have. Can't do that. Turning on infinite ammo with a 2nd player who hasn't beat the game doesn't work either.

    Dumb.

    Dude, you should have to earn that shit. I don't think that's dumb at all.

    Infinite ammo is only for the player who maxes the weapons stats. So its not dumb?

    One of the best things about the game though.
    that guy you chase around for the first half of the game gets killed halfway through. (guy you kill on the boat I mean)

    that dude was annoying as fuck. Why can't RE games ever not have a character like him?

    Yeah it's not that long of a game. Me and my friend beat it in a couple of sessions.

    Probably would have beaten it about an hour or two earlier if we knew what the hell we were supposed to be doing in some of the humongous fights late in the game.

    It seemed to be mostly the strange insertion of tribal dress, and apparently some non-zombified black people beating a dude in a sack to death.

    believe me I posted very calmly for like 20 pages with Defender and Munkus before ending my social experiment to see if I could actually convince people of something if I didn't call them cunts

    They mixed up the zombies racially so much since the first trailers.

    Now there are middle and far eastern zombies in a lot of the first villages. I don't even know if you could say there was a majority black zombie population.
