Yes. Yes they are.
I've got Resident Evil 5 and to be honest, I didn't think it was that great. I've not played much of Resident Evil 4 (and didn't like what I did play).
The gameplay is different, 4 & 5 haven't really remained true to how the games are played. It tries to modernise it personally I think it ruins it in the process. One of the best thing about the Resident Evil games is that like Alone in the Dark is that they double as adventure games. Later REs seem to be more focused on shooting zombies.
However, the problem with the original Resident Evils is that they're a bit dated now, so playing them now might not be a fair assessment. I still find them enjoyable, at the time (mind you I was a kid) I didn't think anything of its voice acting, but I recently replayed through Resi Evil 1 and the voice acting is horrendous. I think there's a remake for the GameCube, so that version might have better acting.
See what I mean by bad voice acting. Still you get that brief period of time in the series where nobody knows Wesker is a traitor.
Also loved that you could play the game from 2 different character's perspectives. The games were pretty awesome IMO and very well paced and had a good atmosphere, even for old games.
[edit] Founds the
Remake equivalent of the above video.
Compared to Resi Evil 5? I'd still rate them better. I think my favourite was Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, followed by the first and then the second.
Anyway, your gun is looking great.
