Just about there
First of all, Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D has an online mode, which is extremely nice! I miss an online mode in a lot of 3DS games, so this is already a big plus! However, online play isn't everything, you can't see who's the best, which is a shame. Also, the game design is a bit odd, and many areas are reused. Not a fantastic game, also quite choppy. I find the game just about there, but still worth a 6 because of its online features and a fairly enjoyable single-player mode.

Why is communication important in games like Resident Evil The Mercenaries?
Communication is incredibly important in everyday life. So why should it be any different in games? In the co-op mode of Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D, this is possible. It may not be very extensive, but it’s still there. You have the option to say four things: go (X + up arrow), come on (X + right arrow), wait (X + down arrow), and thanks (X + left arrow). By communicating effectively with your teammates, they’ll have a better idea of what to do. If they do well, you might want to thank them.
