3/10

So - likely to be in the 6's or 7's most likely, certainly within the 60-70 on Metacritic.

Quote:

'For Resi they stated how it was like a SOCOM game with a Resident Evil skin hence not fitting in with the brand, AI of teammates is dreadful i.e. run into walls, shoot at nothing, only good at being bullet sponges, criticised glitches like zombies popping out of thin air 'mere centimetres away', unimaginative bland set pieces like zombies popping out of doors and closets, the list goes on. They also mentioned how the Leon Kennedy scene doesn't even get a cutscene or any other fanfare therefore a wasted opportunity, wondering why Capcom even gave the reins to Slant Six although the reviewer 'wished them no ill'. I must stress this was only the single player code they reviewed 'due to print constraints' but still harsh.'

They couldn't even throw in the scene from the first trailer?

I knew this would be a turd the moment it was announced. Glad I didn't waste money on a pre-order. Might buy it when it inevitably hits bargain bins after a few months. Still shocked it got a 3, must be worse than I imagined.

This marks the first time I've held absolutely zero interest in a Resi title.

I grew more and more disappointed about this title after seeing the gameplay videos the last 2 months prior to release. I said it like 10 times: there is just WAY too much going on in this game, trying to cram everything on the screen with dlc and esclusive content that doesn't live up to what Slant 6 promised. I think campaign mode would be the 3 out of the 10. :\

After reading this, I am not going to be suprised if it gets more than a 3/5 or 6/10 on ANY review. Thanks for the share, Stu.
