Review: Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, PS3

The Resident Evil series has so often sought to push the boundaries of survival horror gaming.

And, just when you feel it’s been backed into a dark, zombie-infested corner, the franchise shifts from third-person fixed-camera classic to a more involved, team-based shooter.

Here you’re thrown into a world where you must tackle all that the Umbrella Corporation and its global wrongdoings may throw at you from the time of the initial outbreak in Raccoon City.

Special ops soldiers and every brand of zombie from the first four titles must be dispatched as ruthlessly as possible, using a mixture of team-based tactics.
