  I was Expecting this to Top "House of the Dead..."

I appreciate that Capcom put a great effort for mimicking House of the Dead, but it wasn't that good nor bad, but average. The controls were pretty easy to manipulate, but there are times when you have to press a combination of buttons in certain situations that can get tediously annoying; Many scenes of the game will force you to press these random buttons in a split second, not giving you much time to react - so it can be a nuisance at times to die by not pressing these buttons in time. Graphically, it was Gamecube quality and it was decent enough. The Sound is alright, but the most that irritated me, was the music in some parts of the games; some of the music did not fit in the situation(Imagine going through this zombie infested city with techno music, I mean what the hell?) The voices aren't accurate either... I know many wouldn't care, but since I'm a hardcore fan, I know what sounds right and not and this doesn't sound right much or at all (LOL to Carlo's accent being American). Alright here's the big thing: The level for which you play as Jill and Carlos were staged from the Outbreak series and not from RE3 - a bit odd... so why not just have a Kevin and Alyssa pair-up for that section, eh? Claire and Leon were also missing and they didn't do RE2 - I am angry with this. A Claire and Steve partnership was also missing and I HOPE that Capcom make a sequel to this game, along with Leon and Ada too. Lastly, the transitioning cutscenes aren't even exciting at all; they were simple cut and paste pictures with a text of words - without even a narrator! The only thing I really liked are the extra missions they've had, especially Wesker's missions, since you undergo what he does that was unknown to us before. But Resident Evil fans as we are, we can learn to love this game because we can delve into the past and present of Resident Evil. Oh, and there is an addition where you play again as Chris and Jill in a secret Umbrella Facility in the Arctic and you go underground to the laboratory based on the Movie, Resident Evil Extinction to fight off Wesker's new creation, T-Elos. Experience the laser dodging like Alice did!
