is jaffe a game designer o a game reviewer, get to work already asshole
can you not do both? he is a gaming "celebrity" and was asked a question where his answer was placed into the public domain... I really don't think he spent a day twiddiling his thumbs to come up with his comments!
Some complain that you can't run and fire at the same time. In reality, you need to stand in place to hit a target. Otherwise, you'll likely miss. So is the complaint that RE5 is "too real"? (God forbid! )
The REAL question *is it too hard?* No ... the overall difficulty level takes everything in to consideration. Once you understand the controls, it evens out ... and it's a lot of fun.
Running and shooting at the same time is not that difficult.
Have you tried it? I grew up with shot guns and rifles, and I'm still alive because I never tried to "run and gun". I'll leave that kind of thing to the SAS and others. Come to think of it, have you ever seen footage of someone taking aimed shots while running? As for sniping at a run? Give over. The recoil from big rifle like that would put you on your arse and, you'd have lovely black eye where the scope smacked you.
As for the demo. I think the atmosphere it's aiming for is panic, and the controls help that, you have two choices, stand your ground, or run for your life.
