3.5/5 ★ – TonyFresh's review of Resident Evil 2.

Time: 32 hours Trophies: Platinum Overall: Good I had a feeling Resident Evil games wouldn't be "for me", but I thought I'd give it a go regardless. Turns out I was right. Paper thin story, characters that are just okay, no dodge mechanic, and excessive backtracking to the point it ruins the pacing. What could have been something great is ruined by a game with not much substance. Yes, the game looks incredible, and yes, the setting of the police department was amazing, but I couldn't much care for anything else. Especially since I was going for the platinum, the fact I had to replay the story over and over again, it just got so boring. However, getting the infinite ammo weapons changed things up enough to make the game fun again. It sucks to say, but I might hold off on picking up anymore Resident Evil games for the time being. The notion of replaying a game half a dozen times just doesn't sound like fun to me.
