After Sheva had previously been beheaded, I planned an ingenious strategy for the scripted chainsaw Shaft. I would place a proximity mine where he pretty much spawns---I mean jumps down. Then I will borrow several of sheva's incendiary grenades, and burn him.
But Sheva had other ideas. She gave me her never-used grenades generously enough, but to replace them ran right up to the proximity mine as soon as Shaft spawned. She didn't even blow it up. No, she picked it up, then ran behind me in an attempt to get my head chopped off this time. After an epic battle that consisted of her running around (often in the path of the Shaft's wild swings) Shaft was dead. My ammo was depleted. She had a fair bit left, but I suppose she thought I didn't need her help agianst Shaft, or that she needed to save her ammo given its complete rarity in modern RE games.
Well, just a bit before a checkpoint. Naturally there would be one final---and totally unexpected!---wave of enemies. Easy enough to kill. Or so I thought. Until Sheva ran right into the middle of them while I was reloading, and before I could knock them back she was dead.
If you could just continue playing after she died, the game would be much easier and better!

At that point I realised it was a scripted event. Batman just wanted to chase me. I ran away and as if by chance a pillar fell on Batman which was more than enough to crush his metal anus.
I want my ammo back.
Wesker's girlfriend must use a lot of nipple tape to keep her dress on.
Edgecrusher knows that you will try and poke your finger in his ass Steel. Like that arcade game you are so fond of.
Dvader obviously doesn't mind.
Oh look, there's a laser-type beam that is shot down a passage at regular inteverals. I bet it'll hurt us. I better not run into it. Hmm, what can I do, though? Are those intervals really regular? I know...I'll hide in the wall until they start firing it, then run out in front of it! It'll catch them totally off guard!
A few moments later:
Uh oh, I've learned my lesson with those lasers. I'll just run up onto this pedestal. Hmm? What's that Chris? A spider is killing you? Well gee, I wish I could come and give you the injection you need, but I wouldn't want to kill myself on those lasers. I saw how pissed off you were when I did that last time---oh, you're dead.
The only reason reapers are so annoying is because she likes being penetrated by them. Well fuck her she can have a quickie in the job if she wants, but that's not reason for Chris to get so jealous that I have to restart the whole fucking section all over again.
Oh well at least I got her back for letting me die. I made my way along conveyor belt, then jumped up onto a platform again to avoid a box. Sheva was on cover, but instead of following me she decided to run away from the box instead. She managed to stand on zombie just before the incinerator leaving me no time to kill it. Well that's what she gets for having sex on the job I suppose.
Sorry Vader and Edge, but she's shit and there's no two ways around it. There's also absolutely no need for her to be there from a design perspective except in a few boss battles and doors wher you have to---oh wait they could've just made it so you could do everything yourself.
Also the scripted events are always very annoying.
And this isn't RE5's fault, but I wish there was more freedom in killing a boss sometimes. Okay, the way you're meant to could be the quickest, but how about letting you do things just a little differently even if it takes 5 times as long.
I died 7 times (well technically I died twice) and still got an A on 5-3.
I mean great game overall.
Great...........?
Fine, good.
Good............?
He said great first!
