"The fifth and sixth installments were, in all fairness, decent games. But they were decent games that would have seen more acceptance and success had the Resident Evil name been removed. The intelligent, puzzling, and tension-ridden gameplay were replaced with explosions and gunfights that would have felt more at home in a Call of Duty title."
Must everything be compared to Call of Duty?
If anything Resident Evil 5 and 6 are more akin to Uncharted. I mean Resident Evil 5 had puzzle-ish elements.
