    Will it be something like Time Crisis and those other shooters we see in the arcades? That's what it seems like Anyways, I'll definately get this game, huge fan of RE, and co-op is a major plus when you have a sibling.

    This really increases the appeal of the game. Pretty much the only complaints I have read so far are about a lack of depth and multiplayer.

    This is quite interesting, the only problem I'm going to have here is Team Work, I can't seem to get along with who I usually play with, but it will make some interesting fun scenes.

    Very nice, for the type of game, this feature is pretty much a must. I was considering getting this in the first place since I am a large fan of the RE series, but this just finalised my decision.
