Resident Evil 5 Critical Response 4

Steven Hopper of GameZone rated the "Lost in Nightmares" DLC eight out of ten: "Even though the episode is pretty short, there is some good replay value here and the added multiplayer elements are a nice touch. All in all, this is a worthy investment for fans of the original game."^[66] Samuel Claiborn of IGN rated the "Desperate Escape" DLC seven out of ten: "Despite Desperate Escape's well-crafted action sequences, I actually found myself missing the unique vibe of Lost in Nightmares. The dynamic between Jill and Josh isn't particularly thrilling, and the one-liners, banter and endearing kitsch are kept to a minimum."^[67] Resident Evil 5 was nominated as Best Action Game at the 2009 IGN Game of the Year Awards.^[5]
