Sweet zombie jesus, I am horrible at Resident Evil. I am so bad at this. It's my first third person shooter and my inexperience shows. God, yanno, I was planning on renting the game when it came out and maybe whinging at gogodgene to lemme be the Sheva to her Chris, but now I can't because having me for a partner is a fate worse than death. :O

My main problem is that I am so unused to the view, I keep expecting to go into first person mode to shoot and instead it's just a little laser sight thingie and I have ten zombies shambling after me and Sheva's calling for help, so I dig out the knife to fight my way to her and I can't hold the knife and move at the same time.

Also, I was joking about Chris Redfield's "two Christmas hams nailed to an angry two-by-four" arms before but his arms are so big, I cannot see around them.

Understand this about me, FList: I am a sneaky, cautious gamer. I look are and stealth and snipe people from afar. It's my modus operandi. But with Chris and his massive arms in my way, I can't SEE and I just get panicked and end up fumbling around while Sheva picks up all the ammo and looks at me like I'm demented. I suck at this demo.

But christ is it fun. ♥ ♥ ♥

I'm gonna try again soon, maybe pick a different control scheme and speed up the aiming. Maybe this time I'll make it past the goddamn chainsaw dude.

Also? I've been watching the RE4 Lets Play Maxwell Adams did. And I was really enjoying it, it was great and the escort mission wasn't too annoying. But then midget Napolean showed up and suddenly I understood why people say these games have bad writing. Oh. My. God. It's so bad, it's great. NARMTASTIC, MAN.

PS: I've taken to wearing my new 360 headset even when I'm taking a break from playing. IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE A REAL MGS MISSION CONTROL PERSON. :D :D :D
