Video: Resident Evil 5 Versus mode in real life

I haven't even beat the single-player mode of RE5, let alone co-op, let even more alone any versus mode, but this video clearly encapsulates what I imagined the $5 optional add-on mode to play like.

Relatedly, Resident Evil 5 is playable for me in a way that RE4 never had been, in that it is actually fun and not a tedious fight against the antiquated "I'm a burly action hero but I can't run and shoot at the same time" Battlezone-like controls. Or is fun despite those controls, at least.

Perhaps it helps that I've decided to play on the easiest mode. In my old age, playing in wussy mode seems like a better use of my time. [via Tom Chick @ Fidgit]

When I first saw this I thought that this is to some extent what Halo 3 multiplayer is like too, except with less jumping.
