Cubed3: 6 / 10 by Leo Epema

In some ways, Resident Evil 5 is not as 'fun' as its successor. Its controls are slightly clunky, the A.I. partner is scatter-brained, and her inclusion in every situation reduces the horror. However, it's also more thrilling, and the survival aspect is implemented better than in Resident Evil 6, with tough ammo conservation and some inventory management.

GamingBolt: 8 / 10 by Bill Smith

Despite a straight port, Resident Evil 5 has aged well. There is a good amount of content here which should make the wait easier for Resident Evil 7.

GameSpew: 8 / 10 by Richard Seagrave

It all makes for a game that is often tense, with the need to think fast and keep on your toes if you want to avoid being swarmed and mauled by groups of enemies
