Dull as dishwater and no fun to play.

The shooting sucks, and … that’s basically the whole game! It just feels bad. Your shots have no impact and there's next to no gore or dismemberment, despite, uh, the subject matter.

I guess there's some good stuff in here for big fans of RE lore (yikes) and it's fun to see some of the classic locales presented this way, but it was legitimately hard for me to stay awake through even an hour of this. (Doesn't help that it starts with a retelling of everyone's favorite thrill ride, RESIDENT EVIL 0.)

As a big fan of stone cold classic THE HOUSE OF THE DEAD 2, I know what a good zombie rail shooter looks like and have since the late '90s. Given the series' pedigree, this is a big and marginally tragic whiff.
