Resident Evil 5: 'Stand and Shoot' or 'Run and Gun'

[Afa ◕‿◕]

Code:

why is there no GAMING board???

ok so in Resident Evil 5, you cant move and shoot at the same time and its causing abit of an argument...
i for one support the stand and shoot,
for tradition sake, RE 1 2 3 4 was a stand and shoot
and being unique, 'there are so many FPS out there..',

ofcourse there are many other RE5 stuff to complain about so discuss

For traditions sake, we should also use the D-pad instead of the joystick.

i think it should be run and gun...

RE5 seems to be  completely different gameplay as compared to the other RE series, especially the fact that the game seems to try to focus less on the horror and more on the action.

Firstly, learn to type properly.

Secondly, as far as I know, Resident Evil 5 isn't an FPS by definition.

Resident Evil, particularly in the earlier games, was more of a "survival horror" game. Part of the beauty of the game was struggling against the controls to survive. But in recent times, RE has become more of an action game, where ammo conservation isn't as important. Because of that, when you compare it to other action games, the controls are somewhat inhibiting. So imo, either RE goes back to its more "survival" roots or fix the control scheme and catch up with the times.

Sorry for the randomness! but I felt like expressing this to everyone

Ahem...
