when this game first came out i didn't care about the reviews or "metascores" i just went to an store bought the game, came back home and started playing it on my xbox 360.

back then there was no remake or anything to take me back to the raccoon city again, so this game was my ticket back to the city that i grew up in as a child and i was so exited to go back. that was a hell of a ride for me.

that is my reason for liking this game, but as a die hard fan of the franchise who played every single game in the franchise and is a fan of the classic RE games i understand some of the criticisms but tbh this game really doesn't deserve this much hate in my opinion.

this game is a completely action game in the franchise,it's the definition of GUN BLAZING but this time you are playing as the bad guys and when you are playing as an u.s.s soldier you can not expect survival elements in the game and it's a co-op game so you can throw the horror part out of the window too but i turned off the RE logic part of my brain and just enjoyed the ride, it's a fun game specially with your friends.

this game is non-canon and that's good because it doesn't mess up the lore so you can have some fun with the mindless zombie shooting and the story of the game that is basically a WHAT IF... scenario with some of our beloved characters and B.OW's.

the game definitely have problems in gameplay and textures and specially in technical parts but it's still not that bad.

OVERALL REORC NEVER MEANT TO BE LIKE THE RE GAMES THAT WE ALL KNEW AND LOVE. IT'S THE UGLY CHILD OF THE FAMILY, MAYBE IT IS UGLY ON THE OUTSIDE BUT IF YOU SIT DOWN AND GIVE IT A CHANCE MAYBE YOU FIND IT BEAUTIFUL ON THE INSIDE. IT'S A FUN, CO OP ZOMBIE SHOOTING GAME IN THE RE UNIVERSE AND IT'S A FUN GAME FOR WHAT IT IS...
