Caltrops - Resident Evil 4





	[quote name="Fussbett"]Resident Evil 5 puts other games on notice, finally captures the holy grail of house defense: furniture blockades. <a href="http://e3.gamespot.com/story.html?sid=6193737&pid=929198&tag=topslot%3Btitle%3B1&om_act=convert&om_clk=topslot&page=1" target="re5">http://e3.gamespot.com/story.html?sid=6193737&pid=929198&tag=topslot%3Btitle%3B1&om_act=convert&om_clk=topslot&page=1</a> [quote name="Gamespot"]We took control of Chris as the house came under siege by the masses, who could be seen through the windows. We had a few options as they started rushing, which were pretty interesting. We were able to push bookcases in front of the main door and one of the windows. We liked that; much like having the option to direct Sheva to collect items, we were able to get her to assist with the bookcase. Before we started pushing on our own bookshelf, we set her on the other, which was handy because time is of the essence when you're being set on by an angry mob. In the few seconds that we had left, we also collected loot from around the small house. As with previous games, the loot was laying in plain sight, and also hidden in drawers or left behind when smashing crates. The level's pacing started with a slow burn, much like the first big rush of enemies in RE4, with the mob getting more and more aggressive in their attempts to enter. As we were getting our bearings, Sheva helpfully started shooting at anyone who showed their face in windows. We were actually able to take out quite a few by shooting them through the windows, but eventually the mob kicked in the main door and started streaming in. As if that wasn't bad enough, another highly motivated group started dropping down from a hole that they had made in the roof. The final kicker was when a massive, axe-wielding hulk smashed his way through the main wall...clearly a sign that it was time to get out.
