Resident Evil is a series of many turns, and enjoyed for different reasons. This podcast talks about what keeps these games at the top of the video gaming ecosystem and what lies ahead for the series.

When Capcom released the original Resident Evil it captivated me. Each subsequent game in the franchise has had me looking for that magic of the first game. Yet with every release, the series has moved ever further from the original, so that by the time I played Resident Evil 5 I had to face the fact that this is not the same game I fell in love with.

Resident Evil is to be the series that cemented survival horror as a genre. It is a genre reliant on tension, with the ability to make you scared despite being safely curled up on your sofa. It is an experience I relish - turn the lamps down and the sound up, there's nothing like it.

Resident Evil 5 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 brings the series up to date with next generation visuals and a focus on co-operative gameplay. But with such a prestigeous history behind it, making the series appeal to the masses loses something of its unnerving charm along the way. The plodding doom of the encroaching zombies and limited ammo are replaced in favour of faster action and more firepower.

Capcom has been throwing zombies at us courtesy of the Resident Evil franchise since long before they were cool. Shambling reanimated cadavers have infested mansions, police stations and gloomy Spanish villages for the better part of thirteen years.

Resident Evil 5 on 360 and PS3 is an effecting ride, but one that focuses on adrenaline rather than horror. As I get into character along side my in-game colleague Chris Redfield I find an excellent action game rather than an unerving horror.

I squint as we step into the searing Africa sun. Chris Redfield and I have done this before, but that was twelve years ago. It was a different age then, filled with surprise and wonder at what Capcom had created for us in their game, Resident Evil. Now, as we approach Resident Evil 5, we are older, cynical and prepared for what lays ahead. We move forward, cautions but confident.

Resident Evil 5 is the latest in a prestigious line of horror games. The game continues the series' usual zombies, guns and running as well as the over the shoulder view popularised by the critically acclaimed Resident Evil 4.

Shooting games present a world in which the character must shoot their way out of dangerous situations. They provide the player with an array of weapons tailored to specific tasks. This unavoidably involves a combination of fisticuffs and gun based fighting that dictates the violent nature of these experiences. Beneath this harsh exterior though is often an intricate tactile game - and this is usually what drives the player.
