** What with the faster, action-oriented gameplay and free aiming system of parts ''4'' and ''5'', this one looks to preserve the challenge of the classic stlye by sending ''lots'' of zombies after Leon. So, BoomHeadshot may drop one, but what are you gonna do about the twenty others still closing in?

Why did someone remove the part about the cover system? It\'s clearly there in the trailer, in a much more apparent way than it was in RE 5.

* RetCon: In previous games and spin-off material it was all but established that the public already knew the gist of what happened in Racoon City. In ''4'' Leon even narrates that Umbrella was publicly exposed as being responsible and went bankrupt as a result as its stock crashed. This isn't the first such retcon, of course; in ''Code Veronica'' Umbrella limped on for a few years afterwards, while ''3'' and ''4'' can't agree on the precise details of exactly how and when Racoon City was destroyed. But its a little more noticeable, given that most games at least implied that everyone knew the bare essentials of what happened.

Wrong trope. Money, Dear Boy is about an actor taking on a role because of the pay. Also, you could take cover behind walls in the last game.
