Resident Evil 5

[Matt Mortem]

Finally beat the game. Overall I really enjoyed it.

Took me 11 hours, 13 minutes. That can't be said for too many games nowadays.

Also bought all the weaons and upgraded all of them, so now I have to work on getting exchange points to buy everything.

Yeah I agree, I love the playtime on this. Not too long, not too short

I just beat it today too, does anybody know how to get the rotten egg, that's the only one i'm missing for the achievement

 

[Cunning Stunts]

Just out of curiosity, how many of you are aware of the rotten egg trick?

I believe they start showing up on Majinis after Chapter 5 starts. It's easier to have someone give it to you. I'm still looking for all of them.

Works splendidly.

I officially have my first complaint with this game. Trying to save Jill's sorry ass I "died" 6 times. It was sooo frustrating I kept shooting Jill just to satisfy a carnal need. They should have found a way to make that battle less annoying

How can you? :P All you need to do is run close to her and most likely press the X (i play xbox) button at your closest chance, and if she tries to attack its either X or A to dodge.

I think my machine was glitchin' out cuz it only gave me that (x) option for less than a second and even if it did my (x) button barely worked. I think me controllers are going out (though it's much more reassuring to blame capcom than think I have to get new controllers )

 

[CELTICPRED]

That and the insanely fast button mashing is stupid.

 

[Master Chief]

Holy crap i HATE the prison level! Im never going to unlock S.T.A.R.S Wesker. What a pain in the ass.

Told you.

I haven't played in a few days but I'm really gonna practice that map. It's gonna be worth it.

How are the ammo and healing items in this game? In RE4 there was more than enough of both so I never really had to worry about it but with this game having a partner, Im wondering if you feel like you are constantly running out. Is Sheva good with it or does she waste them too often?

 

[Master Chief]

She only really uses them when they're necessary, and health items are usually around at convenient times. I started playing on the easiest difficulty though, so I've had stronger weapons which made the other difficulties easier where there seems to be less of everything.

Yea my co-op partner and i felt as tho we were always on our last rounds. Health was never too much a problem, but ammo always was. I loved it tho. And every time we got stocked on ammo, it wasnt long before we were running low again.

 

[Electro UK]

I played it on Veteran in 17 hours. Though towards the end, I kind of regretted not playing co-op all the way through. Still and incredibly enjoyable experience though.

Theres plenty of health, but not much ammo. I'm on chapter 6 (the last chapter) and I've got **** in the way of ammo. I have like 30 shotgun shots, 18 magnum rounds and Sheva has about 150 machine gun bullets. Not alot considering I've still got the last boss to beat

It is long for a game this generation, but what's sad is that this one took me 12 hours and i consider that long, when I then consider it took 19 hours on my first playthrough of RE4. Why are games getting shorter and shorter.

 

[uchiha_itachi]

Ive been wondering that for a while now. Games are loosing alot of content. its like they give us a game and thats it. no extras, just a straight forward story or wot not. its bug me because i see alot of these games and i think to myself...the basic story is there and its a cool concept BUT it would be so much better if this happend or that happend. If i could some how get into a studio thats making a resident evil or whatever then i guarentee it would be the best game you ever played. I guess alot of us gamers feel that way. i think tbh alot of game writers are a bit burned out. The things in this game would of been a whooole lot better if executed properly.

but yeah its probably the writers mostly, trouble comming up with a long enough story. or just developers getting lazy?

Because the consumers are riddled with ADD. Apparently we are in the minority. It seems as tho most ppl wont get through a game. They'll pick it up, play it for a week then either move onto multi player or move on to another game. When i first bought Gears of War 2, the first thing i did was beat the single player, then i went online and i was surprised at how many ppl i came across who hadnt finished the single player, in either title. I bet the avg person who bought GTA IV never completed the story.

It's amazing how simply having infinite ammo for the SIG P226 reduces gameplay time. My first run throughs were upwards of 40 minutes a level, now they're mostly around 20 minutes while I'm looking for the emblems and the remaining treasures.

Just sucks everything costs so many exchange points.

Haha i know, i love the infinite ammo.

 

[CELTICPRED]

You don't have to spend dozens of minutes breaking open boxes anymore. It's soooooooooo nice.

Probably work on getting it for the M3 and 556.

I also just found out that if you beat the game in under 5 hours on any difficulty, you get infinite ammo for the Rocket Launcher. Anyoen confirm? A few people on achieve360points.com have.

Yea thats what it is, i dont have it yet, but thats how ya get it. I have 4 weapons with unlimited ammo so far. The L.Hawk, P8, Ithica and the 556. Working on the s75 so i can unlock the Bow.

 

[Master Chief]

I have like, 6, but I just fully upgrade to unlock the option and sell.

I beat the game today and it was worth it. Took me 22 hours.

 

[Master Chief]

If you're flying solo in Mercenaries I think you just have to top 50K, because I finally unlocked S.T.A.R.S. Wesker.

On Prison, the best character to use is Safari Chris, because I've only encountered 2 of those hammer guys and they take up the most time/ammo. With the dual rocket launchers, Chris has that s**t under conTrOL!! lol. Just make sure you don't miss.

DayUm yo loL, 22hrs is insane. I ran through this in like, 8, I think. That's awesome though, I wish I could take my time.

I'm runnin bout the same, but I've definetly taken my time. It's been enjoyable not blowing through the game in 5 hours. Eventuall I'll try, but not now
