Is it still worth playing?

Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar investigate a terrorist threat in Kijuju, a fictional region of West Africa, in this 2009 third person shooter for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Windows. The view is over the shoulder. Weapons include handguns, shotguns, automatic rifles, sniper rifles and grenade launchers, as well as melee attacks, and the player can make a quick 180-degree turn to evade enemies. Many boss battles contain quick time events. Weapons can be upgraded with money and treasure from the inventory screen at any time, with no merchant to find, and items are equipped in real time during play. Each player can store nine items. It is designed for two-player cooperative play, and a partner covering your back is still the way to play it.
