Yeah. Specially RE5. That game had a lot of potential but an abysmal execution. And its potential was only there because of Mikami.

Mikami was the one who directed both RE1 and RE4 so directing RE5 was a one in a lifetime opportunity to expand on what made RE4 so great but also combine it with more classic survival horror elements. The game would have been a fucking blast.

Besides, Mikami was the one who created and envisioned Chris, Jill and Wesker in the first place so it makes sense for him to be the one to depict their last stand.

I know Mikami doesn't seem to be interested in returning to horror games but I'd like to see his unfiltered version of RE5. Ideally it should be a RE5 remake with Mikami as the director who has full creative freedom. But since that will probably never happen, I'd be ok with a book-comic-drama album like William Gibson's Alien 3. The same thing can be said for RE6 and Kamiya. I'm confident he would do a decent job, to say the least.
