Definitely not a good game as far as I can see from Youtube gameplay (been following it since episode 1). I also hear that the PC port of this is full of bugs, at least judging from Steam reviews.
Guess one can't milk a franchise indefinitely.
I've only seen episode 1 myself, and as far as I can tell, it seems like a fairly decent game. I think it's a step up from the original Revelations, at least. I didn't particularly like the design of the Ooze monsters, and all the side characters felt extremely forgettable. At least Revelations 2 has actual zombies, and Moira and Natalia are interesting as characters. I also think the co-op is more befitting a horror series than RE5/6's co-op. The only design decision I feel is terrible is Natalia's hearing, which ruins the suspense and tension that would normally come with turning a corner or entering a new room. The new stealth combat makes sense from a design standpoint, but it's a bit unnecessary when you can mow through most zombies easily (that and the abundance of ammo will hopefully be fixed on higher difficulties).
