Resident Evil 4's remake was a hit, but should Capcom go for Resident Evil 5 next? This is a tough call.

  • Pros:
  • Some cool co-op moments.
  • Tighter inventory management.

  • Cons:
  • Not as scary or balanced as Resident Evil 4.
  • Older game (2009)—gaming has evolved since then.
  • Action-heavy, lacking horror elements.
  • Slow shooting mechanics.
  • Confusing boss fights.
  • Puzzles don't work well in co-op.
  • Stereotypes that need updating.

Two Players Tested Co-Op: Mixed Reviews

  • Player 1 (Against Remake):
  • Not scary, too much action.
  • Co-op fun, but not enough for a full remake.
  • Resident Evil: Revelations 2 did co-op better.

  • Player 2 (For Remake):
  • Liked co-op and inventory management.
  • Acknowledged shooting and puzzle issues.

Final Verdict?

The co-op is fun, but the game has many problems. Maybe Capcom should focus on other games instead.
