    So i will start with the obvious, the graphics. Very sub-par especially for a pc port, very ps2 feel.
    The controls, i used both the mouse and keyboard and a controller and well....they are very clunky. Aiming has to be the worst its a combination of magnetic targeting and no real balance between camera speeding out of control to slow-mo.

    The dialog is awful, cut scenes are out of sync with the words and their expressions are linear.
    The challenge is there if you enjoy fighting the awkwardness of the controls vs. the camera other than that its a pass 4/10.    … Expand

    Considering how I love Resident Evil games I have to say they really screwed up on this game. For the sake of this rating I'll begin a list

    Very lazy! This is one of the worst games I have ever played, I want my money back.

    Bad, bad, bad pc port. Even on High Graphics the game looks dated. Cheesy dialogue, predictable plot, plain characters and a completely and painfully useless partner AI makes this game a regrettable purchase.

    Welcome to the world of Resident Evil: Revelations with wacky side characters, long loading times in rooms, predictable betrayals, anime hairstyles and clothing designs. The firmament of zero subtlety and over explanation. Also the final boss is a bullet sponge. It also costs more than Cry of Fear.

    This is one if those "where-the-hell-should-I-go" games. The whole story takes place at the large ship with boring and monotonous design. And you never know exactly, where to go and what to do.

    Story

    I found the story really hard to follow as it constantly goes backward and forward in time as you switch to different characters who are all in different locations. The story it self is rather boring and the characters are no developed enough for me to care about them in the slightest, there is also some silly love story crap going on too but I really didn't care enough to find    Story

    I found the story really hard to follow as it constantly goes backward and forward in time as you switch to different characters who are all in different locations. The story it self is rather boring and the characters are no developed enough for me to care about them in the slightest, there is also some silly love story crap going on too but I really didn't care enough to find out.

    Graphics

    I don't tend to really care about graphics but they look really bad in some areas and the lip syncing is terrible at times. There are alot of low-rez textures on most of the objects so when you get close to them it just look awful and some of the characters look pretty crap too.

    Control

    Moving around is a pain to get used to as you can turn around at a ridicules speed, I had to change the mouse sensitivity because moving and aiming was really god damn difficult. I also don't like some of the binding as you had to hold W+Left Click to doge attacks but sometimes my character would use the knife in stead of dodging which got me killed alot. I found the camera a bit to low for my liking so my character would sometimes get in the way to the point where I could not see stuff coming towards me.

    Gameplay

    Gameplay is your standard Resident Evil gameplay which is shoot or run past everything which is fun for a while but it soon got repetitive for me and I just wanted the game to end. Your teammates AI is AWFUL, my AI partner would rarely ever use his/her gun and the enemies would just walk right past them!

    Overall this game is a disappointment and should only be played by big Resident Evil fans.    … Expand

    if youre looking for a fun resident evil game, buy any game but this. honestly. in my opinion, even racoon city was more fun to play.

    I was planning to play the 3ds version, but since I never bought a 3ds, I ended up getting the computer version. The story of this game did not please me, at first it seems like it will be interesting, but the dialogues are so monotonous. It's as if none of the characters had a soul, and was always talking cliches phrases that are spoken in many action films of the 70-90.

It's as if none of the characters had a soul, and was always talking cliches phrases that are spoken in many action films of the 70-90. The graphics are of the same quality as Resident Evil 4, but ... I do not know ... they've put on a weird blue filter, and the image has a very annoying motion blur. The scenarios are also very empty, and it takes a while for them to be less linear to be of the same resident evil style. It was in this game that I discovered that I can not stand the same formula of resident evil (except for re7 that was well done). Expect betrayals, sexual tension that will never be realized because capcom hates romance in their games, just as shounem jump hates novels in their shounem manga, albino zombies, mysterious villains, a jigsaw scenario that no one in the world would do, just to open a door, a place that resembles a mansion of 3 to 4 floors (a ship in this case).
    Another annoying thing is that the game is episodic and at the beginning of every episode has an unnecessary summary, which should help players suffering from amnenia.
    The movement is strange, it's as if the character is sliding across the floor, not running across the floor. Shooting in this game is not pleasurable, these new enemies do not react to your shots convincingly.    … Expand

Feels like they tried too hard to be scary/shocking.), Weapons also are uninspiring and lacks punch. Controls are dumbed down and the frustrating computer controlled AI is useless. It's pretty insulting when this game is hailed as a return to it's original roots. Anybody that's played 1, 2, 3, & Code Veronica more than once would beg to differ. Just goes to show you how bad the Resident Evil series has gotten, when this actually looks good just because it's a little bit better than the crap that's came out over the years. I actually prefer Resident Evil 5 over this. 3 stars, but only for Jessica's sweet a**.… Expand

    Resident Evil Revelations is a poor attempt at returning the series to it's survival horror roots. From slow paced game play to the inability to see your own health bar, it's a mere spin-off that cashes in on the series' popularity instead of providing a fun filled experience.

    Revelation has some flaws - an imperfect controlling system, some short and too easy levels and really stupid story moments, that are typical for the Resident Evil series. Still, despite all this, the new RE is a great game. Episodic formula works great with telling a large, multithreaded story, the game has some real horror, great boss fights and a new game mode. It's definitely worth your time.

    Just like the zombies that the Resident Evil brand was built on, Revelations proves that there might be life after death (or at least severe downward spiral) after all.

    Porting Revelations to make it readily available to millions of gamers was a smart move by Capcom, but if you have played the 3DS version already then there is nothing new here for you. For everyone else, Capcom has done console and PC gamers a favor in providing a thrilling and riveting addition to this truly evil series.
