Yay finally beat Resident Evil 5. I have been trying to conquer all of the games since Resident evil 1, with Main characters, Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield. This game takes place in Africa. You start off in a town where the virus was first introduced. You play as BSAA agent Chris Redfield and your partner is Sheva, with the West African BSAA.
Follow the road to the butcher shop, there you will meet a connect who will provide you with your basic pistol and clothes. As soon as you leave the shop you will start running into zombies...now...they aren't really zombies anymore but a good well placed shot to the head is the best way to put them down. I still love the shooting system in Number 5. The amount of interaction with the game and its enemies that is required is amazing. for example, if a zombie gets to close they will attack but you can prevent this by flicking the stick on the controller back and forth. Also if your team mate gets attacked you can run next to them and Press " B " to save them. Although one thing I HATED about the game was the fact that when you are doing so well in the game and you're almost done with a mission, your team mate dies....lame....who does that. There are alot more weapon choices in this game, the rocket launcher, sniper rifle, and different types of SMG's. The bosses in this game arent that complicated, in fact the ways to beat them are pretty straight forward.
There is one part of the game that I would like to elaborate on. When you are about 90% into the game you will come across a part where you face off against two predators and two huge guys with machine guns. I failed this part about 18 times before I figured out how to do it. When you first start this mission you will be opening a huge door, This is when the predators will come. Set up 2 mines about 14 feet behind you then pull out your sniper rifle. When they hit the mine they will stand up and flash a white meat on the stomach. Shoot it! this takes a second to aim but will kill them in one shot. If you happen to miss then run away and try again in the tunnel. now you should have killed them by now, but if you havent then you pretty much just have to run around until they flash again and you can hit them. Then run across the path under the door you opened and get on the turret on the left side. Shoot the big guys until they jump up next to you, then let loose on them. This will kill them, both. good job. :)
The story line and ending in this game was awesome. I really enjoyed how you find jill again and how she was ok to live and she didnt die or anything stupid. There are a good bit of puzzles in this game, though not as bad as the first two games. (If anyone needs help on any part of the game please email me or comment your question and ill give you a walkthrough) If you are a fan of the Resident Evil series then obviously I recommend this game for you, but even if you are a first time player you can still play this game without being completely lost. GO GET THEM ZOMBIES!
