FIgured it was time to resurect this thread. Which do you guys think is better? In my opinion resident evil 4 was way better, better bosses, harder, and a lot of fun. Resident evil 5 was good just not resident evil 4 good, the ai partner is retarded. The really enjoyment in resident evil 5 comes from playing co-op with a friend, but the game gets old quick. I still go back and play resident evil 4. So what do you guys think?

RE 4, the 5th one was good but it didn't do enough to pull itself out of 4's shadow. Yeah, it had co-op but I didn't like it, ruined the single player experience imo. It should have been a separate campaign like in Resistance 2. Having a partner by your side 24/7 destroyed any sense of fear or isolation. Even the 4th one, the least scary of the bunch up to that point, had moments that freaked you out because it was just you against the mob. I read somewhere that they're going to reboot the series with the next game, and I hope they do. The series has become too action heavy for my tastes. Would love to see a return to the atmosphere from the first 2 games, while keeping the new control aspects from 4 and 5.

RE4. RE has always and should always be a single player experience. sure the co-op in RE5 is good online but i am not waiting around till somebody is online who i can play with just to play the game. RE5 offline is horrid and frustrating. i have loved Resident Evil ever since the first game and if RE5 was not tying up the story i would not be playing through it

Resident evil 5. If it wasn't for being able to enjoy this game with a friend split-screen, I might've said RE4.

 

RE4's graphics for it's time were litterally jaw-dropping. The gameplay was brilliant and it was awesome to finally see the RE's progressing in story after all this time. But to judge RE4 to 5 now just feels wrong, since RE5's pretty much taken all of the good features from 4 and added tons more to enjoy.

RE4 all the way for the reasons mentioned above. RE games are best played alone so the co-op just made it feel awkward to me. Also some of the bosses were reused from RE4 and the other ones werent very exciting. Also there were a few more puzzles in RE4 instead of the lame ones in RE5. RE5 was pretty good but I dont think it comes even close to RE4.

I think for a survival HORROR game RE4 was better. However the arcadey style of 5 was very enjoyable and made me want to play it over and over ,but let`s admit it`s more action than survival horror which i didn`t like.

they`re both great games but i like RE5 just a tad more. Gotta go with RE5.

4 because 5 is only 4 with a fresh coat of paint if 5 would have have been dead space then it would indeed be 5

 

I agree on this, I liked RE5, I loved RE 4, and I loved Dead Space.. Dead space was epic.

 

Anyways, RE 5 was badass, I enjoyed. I dont like how they alterd the story (you know this if you've been playing since RE 1 ) but as far as gameplay goes, RE 5 was sweet.

 

Re 4 was sweet aswell, and it would of been better than re 5 if HALF THE GAME WASNT AN ESCORT MISSION.

 

After awhile you get use to it, but I HATE escort missons. and most of RE 4 was escort.

I like part 4 better, don't get me wrong i like 5 too and online play is a blast but i just like the 4th better.

 

Ugh,I forgot it also has more gore. That's one thing that really pissed me off about 5 was the deaths were dumb, hardly any blood,and the chainsaw death, come on how lame is it?!

Resident evil 5 improves on everything res 4. its just res 4 with more! the coop is really fun. Only annoying thing is sheva on some of the levels or certain situations..but she was made to be played by a real person! I would say the story is quite weak compared to 1 - 3, but as this is a 4 comparisons anythings game right? :D
