Game: Resident Evil 5

[darkshadow]

Well this game has been on the #1 spot of wanted games list for me since october 2005, and the E3 trailers were nice and all, but today the 3 min trailer was released on XBlive marketplace and PSN and, well, it's just GODLY.

Too bad the game has been delayed to fucking 2009 though ( i hope capcom reconsiders this, since it originally had a 2007 date, plus that would mean dmc4 would be the only game from capcom that would last through 2008)

1080p trailer: http://www.gamersyde.com/leech_4152_1_en.html
Or you can simply stream the video ( in a lower res ofcourse ) from either links.

Watch and enjoy the awesomeness.

At the Magic-box.com they confirmed that the protagonist of this trailers is indeed Chris Redfield. Plus, they mentioned CAPCOM said the story will revolve around rescuing a female character who was kidnapped previously and never rescued. How is it differente from what Leon had to do concerning Ashley? That this kidnapped female was from a previous game... and while they hadn't confirmed this, Magic Box stated is was Rebecca Chambers, but personally I believe its Sherry Birkin, who the government took away after RE2

Yeah, I heard the sad news. But a 2 years delay seems a bit cheesy though. I haven't played Resident Evil since RE3, but I'll definitely have to get RE5. Maybe even hook up with RE4.

"Resident Evil 5’s teaser trailer revealed fleet-footed foes, as opposed to the regular lethargic zombies from the previous installments. Famitsu Xbox 360 has stated that the player’s body temperature will play a large role. Prolonged exposure to heat will make it harder to shoot, due to hallucinations and mirages. In an interview with Xbox360ism, Keiji Inafune briefly stated that the game will feature some online elements"

Hallucinations and mirages... omg.. this game is going to be so sweet, also online elements? Mercenaries online anyone?

"One feature is the importance that light and darkness will play in the game. If Chris enters a building his eyes will gradually adjust to the dark interior, while stepping out into sunlight from a dark area will result in glare temporarily hindering his vision."
Also awesome, I was right putting it on my list as #1 that long ago.

Going to download that trailer now!!

But 2009, bloody heck thats a long time to wait for my most anticipated game this gen. Koyuki play RE4 ASAP, its my favourite game last gen and also my favourite in the RE series along with RE2. You're truly missing out on one of the best games of all time.

I'm liking how RE seems to be going global with its locales. It's quite a departure from the original confines of a musty mansion.

That being said, the info on Chris's body reacting to light and heat levels seems to imply that this is going to be, literally, the sunniest RE I've come across.

I can hardly wait- 2009: Curing AIDS with lead.

You better have a solid excuse for not having played RE 4 yet! Such an awesome game. SUCH AN AWESOME GAME!!

This is not related to the content of the game, but to the fight..well there's actually no fight. It's about a black racist woman bashing white people, or rather Capcom ( while thinking Capcom is American and Japanese people are white ^^ )

Enjoy yourself with 30 minutes of material worth reading.

was it so hard to click to page 2 of this forums?

[?igma]

Aye apologies there, there is no need for WTF. I don't start threads very often and I'm aware of the search button.

There's more than the rude way to tell me that, I think you realize that too. Topic can be merged.

To elaborate, I was under the impression the topic was new. It happends sometimes you know, thinking something which makes you act , only to find out you were wrong.

Posting like that pisses me off though..don't go there too often. I'm for one, not your retarded kid brother. Speak to people as if they're your equals, not your minions.

( the first guy to argue about my retarded brother comment will meet the pictures of my 12 year old simpleminded authistic sister(sweetest kid in the world))

Resident evil 5 being accused of heavy racism.

The new Resident Evil video game depicts a white man in what appears to be Africa killing Black people. The Black people are supposed to be zombies and the white man’s job is to destroy them and save humanity. “I have a job to do and I’m gonna see it through.”

This is problematic on so many levels, including the depiction of Black people as inhuman savages, the killing of Black people by a white man in military clothing, and the fact that this video game is marketed to children and young adults. Start them young… fearing, hating, and destroying Black people.

[Terracosmo]

GODDAMNIT WHY MUST THERE ALWAYS BE IDIOTS?

Objectifying the game in such a manner as simply reducing it to "white VS black" as that person does it what causes a problem in the first place. In the game you're a white guy who just fucking happens to be in Africa. What, must a game take place in europe or the US for it not to be racist? Where were all those fuckwits when you slaughtered mexicans or whatever in RE4? Would they care if Chris was black and he shot white fatty zombies at McDonalds? No they wouldn't.

It's heresy that someone as stupid as that person even gets to be important enough for his opinion to become known on the intraweb.

Mankind = Fail

Obviously, it was some black chick that wrote that.

Resident Evil 5: Console Exclusives Revealed

When you're finally able to grab a copy of Resident Evil 5 next year, you will find different goodies in the box depending on which console you buy it for.

Capcom has revealed a bunch of console-specific exclusive extras, giving multi-platform gamers a bit of a decision to make.

The PS3 version will come with a special making-of video feature, which was apparently made by Hollywood staff (so hopefully a little better made than some shaky cam footage in a dull motion capture studio).

On the other hand the 360 version will come in a metal case with a soundtrack CD included called the "Biohazard 5 Selection Track", according to Japanese Translations of the official Capcom Site.

The 360 extras will only come with an initial 'Delux Edition' allotment, and when they run out you'll just get the game on its own. Whereas the PS3's video comes on the same disc as the game, so expect that to be a permanent extra.

Capcom also revealed a special Limited Edition version of the game (pictured), which comes in an even fancier box, packing a 2GB USB memory stick, a 32-page art book, and a waist pouch that resembles one used in the game.

The CE is $90. I don't know what system I'm going to get it on yet. it really depends on which version the people I know get. Can't wait to play some online Co-Op.

Man I just beat RE 4 twice again.

Can't wait for RE 5!

Damn you CRAPcom!!!! Why must only Xbox get the fancy metal box? I don't about boring making-of videos.

I hope that Limited Edition box gets out of the US and is on PS3... but I don't think it will since it says BioHazard 5... so... It probably is an exclusive Japanese

[Psyke]

I'll just get the normal version. March 13, 2009 seems so far away right now.

[Marik]

Resident Evil 5 demo is up on the Japanese Marketplace. It requires a Gold Japanese account to download it. You have go to the Biohazard 5 general page to get it, since it's not appearing under new arrivals at the moment. It's 472.65MB.

[RyougaZell]

Gold? I assume you mean Xbox....

I want my PS3 demo...

[Sandldan]
