Sunday afternoon was spent playing online co-op in the mercenaries mode on Resident Evil 5. I had played around with this mode before by myself, and thought "I hope that it is easier on co-op." Turns out, it is, I think.
Mercenaries is a difficult mode. I had a ton of fun with it while playing cooperatively. For me, that experience really makes it. I am an extremely vocal player when I have a headset on. I pay for the bandwidth, and darn it, I'm going to use it. Mercenaries is intense. There was some teeth grinding for me in the main game, but when I'm playing Mercenaries, I'm constantly on the edge of my seat. It is really well designed. The maps are very well done. The constant barrage of relatively easy to dispatch enemies hounding you keeps you on your toes. Adding in the one large enemy really ups the ante. Once the big bad is one the map, you and your partner have to step it up.
My brain is still tired from everything that happened last week, so perhaps I am not expressing myself well. The gist is: play Mercenaries mode with a friend.
