Resident Evil 5 Quickplay

I loved Resident Evil 4, not to speak about the other legendary RE games, so how about the sequel? Was it any good? I was going to try it out today and leave a full review, but I won't be doing so.

Why?

Well, I bought the game, installed it & started playing, and noticed that my computer isn't good enough for the game. It lags hellishly. No problems with space or RAM, the processors are great too, it's the graphic/video cards that are lacking. So, I uninstalled the game and will let it rest until the day comes when I either buy a new box or upgrade this one.

My first impression of the game was positive though, easy menus, good controls & what seems to be a good storyline as well. I've read some critique that Shiva keeps following you through the game, and we all know the traditional RE creepiness lies in the lonely soldier partition of the game. I haven't played very far so I won't comment on that, but overall I did like the mysterious entry in RE4 more than this one, there are too many people, not the same isolation factor as in the previous game. Still, the graphics look much better and the storyline is promising, that's as far as this review goes. On a completely unrelated note, it's amusing that CAPCOM have used the same directory structure for the whole series, still with the RESIDENT EVIL folder -all in capitol letters. Wonder if it's to keep the series a series, or because it's practical in some way?

Looking forward to getting a better taste of this game sooner or later.
