Hmm... Resident Evil 5. There are good arguments for and against this gamem but right now I'm going to present my opinion.
This game blows my mind. I love the constant action, and the kind of suspense that doesn't really scare the shit out of you, but keeps you on the edge of your seat. (I mean, who saw it coming when that girl's had EXPLODED with that thing inside it? AWESOME!)
The only bad things, really, that I have to say about this game is the horrible fucking AI for Sheva and... Well, actually, that's it. The AI for your female partner is ludicrously stupid. I can recall an instance where I was skulking around this underground facility full of four-legged, rat-like creatures that took every opportunity they could to shoot their tongues at me like a drunken, horny tenth-grader. But anyway, these creatures had very bad senses, and this resulted in a Metal Gear Solid-like scenario where the creatures would be crawling along the walls and ceilings and the floors and you had to walk past them when they were on the former. This went pretty smoothly until I was at the last one, and Sheva decided now was a good time to have a glitch in her incredibly thick skull and she popped a pistol round into the unsuspected monstrosity, alerting the whole lot and BAM, my next five minutes was eaten up by wasting shotgun ammo and health pickups. Let me say that I was not too generous in giving Sheva ammo from then on. In fact, I took her handgun away and sold it so I could invest it in upgrading my own. This was a mistake, apparently, because the whiney ***** is practically necessary to snipe enemies that are about 500 yards away with her pistol, at least when she hasn't wasted all the ammo for it by insisting to shoot every mini-boss with entire clips with it, or constantly targeting the only parts of the enemies that are actually armored.
... But anyway, besides all that, this game is quite outstanding, I just hate having to babysit my partner all the time.
How about you guys?
