Now i know there is already a RES5 thread out, but that thread was only telling you the demo is live. Resident Evil 5, known in Japan as Biohazard 5 (バイオハザード5, Baiohazādo Faibu?), is the forthcoming installment in the Resident Evil survival horror video game series, which is set to debut for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. It will be developed and published by Capcom. Capcom officially announced Resident Evil 5 on July 20, 2005, and is scheduled for release on March 5, 2009 in Japan, and March 13, 2009 in North America and Europe. Source: wiki >.> So are you going to buy this game, I think i will just for the online co-op. If anyone on here wants to play with me on there I'd be happy to accept your friend request.

I've never been a big fan of Resident Evil. The only ones I actually got were the weird ones....just looked it up on Wikipedia. RE Outbreak and RE4 are the ones I had. Outbreak was the weird one I was talking about, but I liked it. RE4 was great....and yeah.

I think they could have the controls better and the whole system of getting items out. For that, I probably won't buy it.

I gave up on the resi series partway through the first one due to the awful camer/controls. Might give the resi 5 demo a go and see whats changed if I can be bothered.

You don't have online..? And what's so bad about solo mode..? iv'e never played it lol i havnt played it right but i know ranger doesnt like it because the NPC your partners with is a moron.. she combines random herbs and uses all your ammo like crazy

Lol...! and why does she use your ammo..? and i combine random herbs >.>

2009-02-06 00:15:00 Author: Thee-Flash Posts: 3154

i guess you share ammo which i think is dumb. i would rather have another ashley on my team that you just have to protect...i try to combine herbs strategically to get best results

2009-02-06 00:18:00 Author: Hamsalad Posts: 2551

Meh, tbh i never use them >.> i always have the rifle, and i just pick em off easily with head shots. I always give them to my partner, but Yea sharing ammo sounds stupid

Fair enough xD Although at the start of the demo they say " This is only a demo don't judge the game " Well they say something similar to that

2009-02-06 00:26:00 Author: Thee-Flash Posts: 3154

wow i cant believe they say that....thats so dumb...they shouldve made the demo of a really awesome part to sell you the game; to make you not even want to think twice about buying it when it comes out...that disclaimer itself makes me weary lol

2009-02-06 00:28:00 Author: Hamsalad Posts: 2551

lol Nah the game is really good when you get used to the controls and get a good online partner.

This message is something that is getting standard at the beginning of demos guys. It's to warn people of the realities of a demo. People don't know there still might be bugs and changes that will occur until release. It's very nice to warn them I think. But don't ever expect something so big as the way Sheva behave as an AI to actually change before release, there's next to none chances for that. Thee-Flash: I don't like the solo mode because of how Sheva behaves. She can mix items as she sees fits. She mixed 2 green herbs together while she had a red herb too. Red herbs are useless outside boosting other kinds of herbs. They are meant to be mixed. G+R herbs = same force than "G+G". But green + green = wasting herbs. She also isn't all that good killing zombies. She shoots in the arms, legs, etc instead of the head and chest. She takes like double the munitions I do to kill a zombie. It's not cool, I don't need a munition waster on my side... After all that I was wondering why don't we have simple options for her? You like this: - Sheva can take items YES/NO - Sheva can mix items YES/NO Also why don't we have a "wait here" command? I mean, we have an AI with us in solo mode but you don't have any settings for it + you can't order here anything. That's why it ends up creating undesirable effects that are repulsing me from playing. .

i like it ranger, good points very clear thank you, hmm i would also like a give amount, Like online you can only give them all your bullets not just some. That needs changing

I've been enjoying the hell out of this demo. No game demo has gotten this much play from me in a long while. The co-op works astoundingly well. I like the ammo-sharing aspect. In cooperative play, it forces you to play... cooperatively! You really CAN'T play it competitively. If one person dies, you both lose. It's up to you to make sure you're well-stocked as well as your partner. That they're taken care of as well as you. Give them ammo when they need it. Ask for ammo when you need it. Watch each other's backs. Yes, solo play is awful in this demo. Has anyone ACCIDENTALLY hit circle?? It's atrocious. She'll be off fighting zombies and essentially keeping them busy while I'm off grabbing goodies from obscure corners. OOPS! I hit the circle button! "Sheva, come here!!" aaaww... But it really is a fun, challenging co-op game. A new take on Resident Evil as well. I thought it would be much less frightening in the sun, with zombies that are less zombie-like. It's actually terrifying in a whole new way. You're utterly outnumbered. You don't have enough ammo to kill half of them. There's only 2 of you. How are you going to survive?? There's a great feeling of "OH ****" throughout the entire demo. Like you're constantly clawing and scraping to stay alive one minute longer. It's a rush. Feels good, looks great, plays solidly (unless you're in solo mode of course). Definitely looking forward to picking this one up.

My friend and I had a blast playing this the other day. I have owned every Resident Evil game (including Code Veronica on Dreamcast) and I was very impressed with how the co-op element has been implemented. It is exactly as Teebonesey said, you have to work together in order to survive. It really is fantastic being able to co-ordinate your attack/defense strategies with your partner while communicating all the time. There were a lot of moments where one of us was near death and the other came to the rescue etc. The visulas were also very impressive. I love the character models, physics engine, lighting, particle effects, textures, pretty much everything lol. The only problem is that there are too many great games coming out and not enough time to play them all

I just got RE4 on my Wii this weekend. Then I played the RE5 demo. Needless to say, RE4 is far better than RE5 and aiming with the Wiimote is much better than slowly turning your gun to point at an enemy. Also, RE5 is racist because you're in Africa and everybody is speaking an African language and the people are black, but RE4 isn't racist at all even though everyone is a horrible Spanish stereotype. Sheva was only added to make the game seem like it isn't racist...which I personally think it isn't. Sheva ruins the game. Also, the game isn't all gloomy like RE4 was. In RE4, all the colors were depressing and it was always cloudy in the day time, so it was always depressing and awesome. RE5 ruined it. RE4 is WAAAY better than RE5.

Yeah but it's still racist.... Someone's sarcasm detectors are broken... Well considering there was no obvious sarcasm, and the Re5 racism topic is one that was in the news, I can safely say, no, its not broken.

Hang on, let me jump into this little racism thing. The first time I saw the first trailers for RE5, I couldn't believe it. I couldn't BELIEVE it. Yes, the game takes place in Africa. It happens to take place in Africa. All of the "zombies" - and they're now less zombies, more mindless crowds of ruthless killers - were black. They were all sickly, scrawny, red-eyed Africans. You happened to play as an unbelievably studly blue eyed American white guy. All of the gameplay footage showed this all-American star quarterback stud firing into CROWDS of Africans assembling in a square. You don't see that they're monsters. You don't know what's going on. There's no context. I have to wonder about anyone who's jaw didn't drop at the racist overtones in these early videos. They've changed it since then - the crowds now contain a far greater variety of races. There are whites and Asians as well as the Africans now. If you ask me, this decision never should have had to be discussed. It should have been made long before the game was ever to the point of releasing those trailers. They also were fairly hasty in releasing newer trailers that showed footage of the "zombies" as being monsters, with tendrils and beastly transformations. It's incredible to me that nobody at Capcom or on the Resident Evil team realized that this was an issue in the development of the game. The media's reaction and the cries of racism were not overblown - And to repeat - I have to wonder about anyone who WASN'T shocked at the imagery in the trailers for this game. This isn't to say that I'm accusing the creators of being racists. It's not my place to make that call. If I were to guess, I'd guess that they thought it would be a cool location firstly, and just didn't REALIZE the overtones they were putting into the game. It was probably out of ignorance and innocence. But not only is that no excuse, it's also the worst excuse - and I can't imagine it being anything else! Okay, that out of the way - I agree with the sentiment that a certain RE creepiness is missing now. But I'm totally okay with this, because they've found new ways to freak me out. By displacing the creepy "setting" and putting the action into a bright, sunny public place, it disarms you. It's that much scarier when things get hectic and deadly, because there's this feeling of NOWHERE to go or hide. You're already "out". And there's nowhere to go - these things are EVERYWHERE. And running away, knowing that that giant lumbering executioner is somewhere right behind you, that's a freaking terrifying ordeal. Having nowhere near the ammo you need to survive and take them all out - also an ordeal. It's a way more intense experience than previous RE games, and I can't wait to play through the whole thing to see what they throw at us.

There's still white people in there.

I disagree, to me, anyone who complains about the racism in Re5 is just complaining for the sake of complaining, no-one would care if it was just white people. I know white people don't have the same history but the point is still valid. My two PENNIES

Drawing attention to this is really pointless. I don't see what the problem was, or is, but Capcom has made efforts to correct the situation (Diversify zombies, etc). Continuing to badger them (or anyone else) about this is pointless. I don't see how they could make a game, that takes place in Africa feature any less Africans. I guess they could remove Africans from the game entirely, and have use just shoot Spanish people and middle eastern people, but that would be a problem aswell, wouldn't it. Capcom has provided a acceptable solution to claims that they are racist (Although I severely doubt that had intentions of offending people in mind, while developing the game). To continue to get angry over this would be almost a troubling obsession with racism. EDIT: Who is excited for mercenaries mode? I know I sure as hell am, also anyone curious what kind of DLC we might get?

what do you do in that mode mate..?

what do you do in that mode mate..? It's an arcade style mode where you and a friend try to stay alive for the longest duration of time possible. So for example the demo level is confirmed for mercs. You would play the level, and the zombies would never stop spawning and you would get a score on your performance. Part of the fun however is that you can play as a vareity of characters with different movesets, and weapons. If you want I can post the character list, but it contains massive spoilers.

Sorry to resurrect the racism debate, but I just read some great thoughts on the topic. Seeing as I seem to be greatly outnumbered here in my opinion (ie, Capcom and the RE5 team are jaw-droppingly insensitive to have released the first trailer as they did). Jerry Holkins of Penny Arcade: It's impossible for us to play it without the metanarrative of race providing a grim context for our every in-game action. It's clear when playing it that they've added a few caucasoids to the mix, and also what looks like zombie version of Saddam Hussein, but it's hard to tell what they're doing there. Playing the game does nothing to dilute the imagery people have found objectionable, the trailer wasn't out of context in any way - in fact I would say quite plainly that they go far beyond what you might have believed possible. It won't be hard to find an authentic, devoted racist on Xbox Live to play as Chris - but is the game somehow less racist if I join someone else's game as co-op partner Sheva Alomar? I hope so. It's sort of like those Magic Eye pictures. You can't see it, you can't see it, and then wham. All you can see is the genocide. N?Gai Croal of Newsweek: I looked at the ?Resident Evil 5″ trailer and I was like, ?Wow, clearly no one black worked on this game.? Because I wonder, and I haven?t sort of really dug into it that much, but I wonder what sort of advice Capcom gave them. The point isn?t that you can?t have black zombies. There was a lot of imagery in that trailer that dovetailed with classic racist imagery. What was not funny, but sort of interesting, was that there were so many gamers who could not at all see it. Like literally couldn?t see it. So how could you have a conversation with people who don't understand what you?re talking about and think that you?re sort of seeing race where nothing exists? ... You know, if it's just a game, then why do we care about how culturally relevant they are? I care about how culturally relevant they are. I take games as seriously as other art forms. ... That?s the whole thing where only Chris Redfield appears to be human before they turn into zombies; the humanity of other people is in question. It's like you barely see their faces, he doesn?t really interact with them, he sort of walks through this thing and it's sort of, ?Is he there? Is he not?? It's a very strange thing, and it taps into sort of this very racist iconography. I think that?s the only way I?m describing it. I?m not saying that was their intent. But it seems that a lot of people who were up in arms about the trailer couldn?t see that and didn?t want to engage it. I think, again, the point is not that Capcom can?t or shouldn?t make a zombie game set in what appears to be an impoverished country where the majority of residents are black. I?m not saying that. But what I am saying is that if I was Capcom, I wouldn?t have suggested to put out that trailer. I would have said, ?You know what, this has tremendous capacity for being misunderstood, and we want to signal that this is not what you might think it is? ? and they didn?t do that. That?s what I?m saying. ... It's like when you engage that kind of imagery you have to be careful with it. It would be like saying you were going to do some sort of zombie movie that appeared to be set in Europe in the 1940?s with skinny, emaciated, Hasidic-looking people. If you put up that imagery people would be saying, ?Are you crazy?? Well, that?s what this stuff looks like. This imagery has a history. It has a history and you can?t pretend otherwise. That imagery still has a history that has to be engaged, that has to be understood. If you?re going to tread, if you?re going to engage imagery that has that potential, the onus is on the creator to be aware of that because there will be repercussions in the marketplace. To read his full interview on the subject, here's the link (http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2008/04/10/newsweeks-ngai-croal-on-the-resident-evil-5-trailer-this-imagery-has-a-history/). I'm posting this here because I hope that it'll give perspective to anyone here who hasn't "seen" it or doesn't think it's important or relevant, because it should be. Like Jerry said, it's a magic-eye picture. For some people it was instant, but for many others, it might take a while before it becomes clear.

It's not because some recognise dude complains on the net and that you quote him/them that your point is more relevant all of a sudden. RE5 isn't a racist game. You can see maybe some racist undertone but the thing is, you need to WANT to see them. The day people will stop being like is the actual day racism will cease. .

It's not because some recognise dude complains on the net and that you quote him/them that your point is more relevant all of a sudden. . There's a major disconnect in perspective here. I didn't post the quotes to say "I told you so"... I posted them because they were far better organized than my own thoughts, and very clear, so I hoped that they might be insightful to some people. RE5 isn't a racist game. You can see maybe some racist undertone but the thing is, you need to WANT to see them. The day people will stop being like is the actual day racism will cease. Ignoring an elephant standing in the room doesn't make it disappear. And you definitely don't need to WANT to see racism in imagery that involves a hulking, handsome, militaristic white American walking through a poverty-stricken "hostile" African town full of poor black villagers organizing in the square, and shooting into crowds of them. It's just stunning to me that someone wouldn't be a bit concerned at this kind of thing. I mentioned a perspective disconnect earlier. There certainly seems to be a major one at Capcom. I know that culturally Japan is far less sensitive about black racist imagery than we are, most likely as a result that Japan isn't nearly the "melting pot" that America is, it doesn't have the racial diversity and history of racism against black people that America has. That's fine... But being so much less sensitive about what could easily be seen as racist imagery: This isn't a good thing! You end up with Pokemon that look like this (http://www.psypokes.com/anime/images/censored/jynx.jpg)! You get a Dragonball Z character that looks like this (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g42gTPfxxbA/Rbd2eQsRd8I/AAAAAAAAACw/QSWi2R6YSMA/s400/mrpopo.jpg)! And kids don't know! There HAS to be sensitivity about these things, folks. Without sensitivity, we become calloused to this type of thing, we let more and more and more slide. This future you imagine, where we aren't racist because people like me no longer "want" to see racism - it's a future where the only reason that racism isn't an issue is because it's EVERYWHERE to the extent that nobody NOTICES it anymore! We're so desensitized that nobody cares to mention it. And there's one thing I need to make clear - I'm not accusing anyone at Capcom or on the RE5 team of being racist. not at all. I believe that their handling of the subject matter came from ignorance, not intolerance. What I'm saying is that they exhibited extraordinary insensitivity. I guess we've all been referring to this as a "racism" debate, but it really isn't, so I apologize for calling it that and possibly confusing some people. I don't think any of us believe Capcom or the RE5 team are racist. But let's be honest about the images. Additionally, I feel I should add: I have no doubt the game's going to be a total blast to play. I might cringe through 25%, or 50%, or however much of the game involves this stuff, but based on the demo it's still a fun time.

We really should stop this whole discussion. We could find racism in anything if we looked hard enough.

wow Teebonesy, you are really over exaggerating dude. With the whole big muscular westernar just going guns a' blazin' into a poor african community while they were quitely sitting around and have a fun town meeting lol. The point is regardless of what skin color those people are they are "zombies"(ish at least) and their town meeting was to behead some guy, their evil. It was the same character in resident evil 4, and no body griped that it was fat european's or anything and freaked out. I'm not quite sure where this is suposed to be based off of but i'm assuming central america or africa. I played the demo i'm just not sure. And the fact remains that the twon their probably basing it off of is in fact a poor impoverished town. Where the people would probably be skinny, and in this particular country i'm sure it's safe to assume the people are almost all "black" ( for no better descriptive word) now pulling the racist card is just ignoring cultural facts, what are they suposed to make it half black half white just to be fair? I don't really think so it's the country they are basing it off. I'm suprised the people complaining about this didn't complain about 4 that they're arnt any black people in it. The thing that set me off most is how you made the comment about the strapping american just busting up a town meeting firing widly into the crowd as if they were just sitting around doing nothing wrong. This arguement was made for the game socom confrontation. I believe some middle eastern people complained about one of the multiplayer factions being referred to as terrorists. Because of their garnments with turbans etc. But the fact remains as their ARE TERRORISTS there (there are terrorists everywhere i'm sure)...and those terrorists that they are depicting DO DRESS LIKE THAT. They didn't call everyone a terrorist or say anything that dresses like that is a terrorist and if you believe that your ignorant anyway. I hate these arguements

This game is a very very great game!!! And, the racist debate is one of the most ridiculous i ever heard about a game. Most of the game take place in Africa and... ho my god, they represent... african people infected... What a shame!!! It is so ridiculous that i don't understand at all the ones that support this idea....

The game is awesome. I understand why some people hate that it's more action than horror, but the fact that you can play with a friend explains why. Watch a great horror movie alone, and then watch it with a friend and talk to each other while it's playing...the suspense is really not the same. And it's more fun to kill zombies with a friend than reading text and searching for 15 minutes where to go. And this racist debate is ridiculous. As Takelow said, it's in Africa, and you see African people. Duh!? That's a scandal!

So I got the game. Looking for buddies to play with. The racism debate IS indeed ridiculous. I've seen soo many Mexicans and white people in this game. I mean a lot. If anything, Capcom is racist against everyone but the Japanese, because I have seen NO asians as enemies yet. Once I got over the whole action over horror thing it's really great! Plus there are some kinda scary parts, but being with a partner completely ruins it.

I have already played through the game twice and am now trying to finish it on professional (1 hit deaths, very tricky lol). This game has the the best visuals I have ever seen, the best bosses I have ever seen and some of the best gameplay I have ever seen. The online element is what really takes things to a whole new level and Mercs mode is really addicting. Capcom announced they will be releasing a Competetive DLC pack but it is going to cost 5 bucks (greedy ********). Still, I might just buy it. And yes, the whole racist thing is a touch ridiculous

And yes, the whole racist thing is a touch ridiculous It's not a one hit death if you stack armor. I'm on 2-3 for professinal and I can take two to three hits (two not counting dying screen) EDIT Disregard this post. I am an idiot.

Sorry In advanced for the double post. Anyone had any good merc scores to brag about yet? Me and my friend just got a double S rank on public assembly with 151980 points. I had no idea there were ranks higher then S! I wonder if there is a triple S....

In Resident Evil 5 an egg takes up exactly the same space as an AK-47 (http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation).

Yahtzee missed the point entirely of the item system. They're not "pockets", they're how much stuff Redfield (Sheeva) can manage to carry. and example of this is how his guns don't go in a pocket, they're clearly displayed on his back. Also his armor's weight isn't negligible so it has to take up a spot in the inventory. Also an AK-47 takes up as much space as 5 eggs, because they stack. Just saying.

Just bought this, awesome game so far. But whoever said that ammo was not an issue (I forget where I heard this, probably one of those "official" reviewers) was lying. I'm running out of ammo all the time for all my guns. The bosses can take a lot of punishment. Btb, there is no way to buy ammo, is there? That would solve a bit of a tight spot I'm currently in.

A great way to get ammo is to play the first chapter on amatuer with a stun rod. The stun rod kills enemies in one hit and there are close to 200 bullets in that level (Near the end of the game you'll need them, trust me)

GUYS! I got infinite ammo for the rocket launcher! IT'S SO AWESOME! Remember, add me! Anyone who hasn't beat the game yet, I can help you Usually that chainsaw guys go down in two hits with the rocket launcher, the additional hit because he usually gets up after he dies. And heres the weird thing: I was playing on Normal. Maybe having infinite ammo on makes him get up, too.

Thanks, just figured out I could farm the previous chapters to get ammo (that's kind of weird). I'm doing much better with ammo now and am up to chapter 5. I love the weapon upgrading bit. But what's the point of upgrading reload speed lol?

the weapon upgrading part was more fun in RE4, together with the traveling merchant. why in the world did they take him out of RE5. stupid new RE team.
