Hey guys! did any of you played RE5 on PC?

I got it 2 days ago and I already got rid of it, the trailer and graphics looked amazing, but I had so many troubles with the keyboard, I find it really hard to play. Probablly it is much better if you have one of those Xbox 360 controller for XP.

Yeah, it does, but there are too many buttons to press lol.

It doesn't even have a "Always Run" option, or at least I haven't found it, you have to press Shift+W to run.

RE4 seemed to work fine for me with the mouse, but it lagged heaps so I just uninstalled it.

Besides, everytime I get up to the chainsaw man, I get creeped out and eventually quit the game, lol

IMO RE5 was legions behind 4. In 4 i felt like I knew the cast and everything but in 5 I had to look into the last games to find out what was going on. plus it just feels like an RE4 rip.

I agree with Recluse. I liked 5, but it wasn't as good as four. It wasn't as long, RE4 had a better cast of characters, it stayed a little more true to survivor horror, and it was scarier. I would have bought a PC controller for a game like that anyway.

Still, Resident Evil needs to go back to being a survivor horror in general. It's starting to feel a little too much like zombie version of Gears. There isn't an element of surprise anymore. The game play itself is fine, the multiplayer is fine too, but it needs to go back to a darker setting.

Still, RE is one of my favorite all time franchises so I'm sure they will listen to peoples cries for them to darken it back up.

I played its demo when it was released, I would say it was okay, just not good enough for me to buy it. Resident Evil 2 was awesome, scary and with an interesting plot. I hope they will remake Resident Evil 2 for 360 and PS3 because I would absolutely buy it.

Oh God no. The PC port by Ubisoft is one of the most laziest ports in the history of gaming. There wasn't even mouse support - You had to aim with the keyboard arrows. It did have all the bonus features of the PS2 version, though.

Aww man, you have to play Resident Evil Nemesis and Code Veronica. Nemesis is especially awesome.

Resident evil 3 nemesis is awesome and code veronica was the last RE game with that style. after that it (also had outbreak series) became RE4 style.
