To get back on topic, I think this game will be hard for all of you to get into, judging by the fact that you all have played so few Resident Evil Games! I mean, RE is all about the story, and that's why this trailer is so cool. If you people haven't at least played RE1, and RE2 (and you really should play the others) how can you possible appreciate the story of this game? I mean...the story is something die hard RE fans have been waiting for for YEARS! I mean, to find out about Wesker and Umbrella and everything....you people really should buy those games(they're cheap now) and give them a try...you're missing out.
No!!!!!! get a PS3 instead! Bill gates is enough rich already lol
agreed but im not going to pay extra just for a game lol
@ cory
i have played all the RE games i would not say that its my favorite game but something that i would play every now and again

Well I'm happy about RE5 not just because of the awesome looking gameplay and online features....but it looks like the story is finally coming together! I mean, look at all of the characters in it. If you've played all of the RE titles, you'd know that Wesker and Chris have been having their feud since the very first game...and you'd also know that Wesker is trying to bring Umbrella back...this is some seriously epic stuff!
I'm just hoping for a cameo from Claire, Jill, or even Barry...that would be bad ass
^^ ok...don't know what you're talking about... but what does everyone think about RE5 being racist. personally I say that RE5 being racist is crap and it's just something someone thought of to argue against it. in case you don't know, it was called racist because you play as a white person in Africa killing black zombies.
Well naturally I agree with you. People tend to forget that in RE4, you fought SPANISH Ganados. Does that mean we hate Spaniards? Or in the other RE games, you killed AMERICAN zombies...does that mean we hate Americans? lol People seem to get WAY too sensitive about these things! Oh, and btw, why does everyone seem to ignore the fact that Shiva(Chris' partner) is black? I think that should account for something.

But yeah, it should be a great game...the only thing I'm worried about is the fact that it's almost exactly the same as RE4...I mean, the character animation is identical! Then again, I suppose if it's not broken...why fix it?

I recently downloaded the new RE5 demo(which is available for both 360 and PS3), and I have to say it was pretty freaking amazing. The visuals were great, and it's nice to see that they've carried over the same thrills and game style from RE4.
I do have a few gripes though. Chris feels WAY too bulky to me, and I think it's kind of irritating to worry about Sheva. Also, the menu is slightly irritating...it's really difficult to manage things when there are literally 50 Ganados chasing you at once...
The author brings up a good point about the perspective of the gamer...of course it's going to look different to different people. I can see why some people would think it has prejudice undertones, but we should remember that the people who made this game were Japanese(and Black in some cases), and that they don't understand the situation in the West. Also, was RE4 racist against Spaniards?

amazing is right. the problems i bet will be fixed because the screen that says the game is still in production and you may expect some bugs so the demo is not perfect just wait till the game comes out
well i played the demo on both versions and heres what i saw the 360 version had online problems and darker visuals than the ps3 version the biggest thats its soooo intense
hmmm didn't think the two versions would be all that different...were the graphics any better on one than the other?
And what did you guys think, did it seem too similar to RE4? A lot of people are calling it a clone...which is kind of true...the enemies are pretty much the same, right down to the way they move and attack. Which actually kind of makes itslightly more irritating for me, because I feel like I'm playing RE4, just with worse controls, a slower Leon, and an annoying inventory screen...

I think Mercenaries is the best part of the game to be honest. it actually saves it for me, because the main story mode was a bit of a letdown...to be blunt.
