Shiny new trailer.

So, apparently this is a direct continuation of RE4... But now it's set in Africa. Yep, crazy black people replacing Los Ganados. Is this awesome? Xbox Live support confirmed, too.

And apparently the protagonist is Chris Redfield. Sweet.

Brilliant trailer.

Wonder what new weapons chris will use other then his classic pistol and shotgun. Maybe they will put drivible vehicles in?




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

The animation on Chris was great. How will this continue directly from RE4, I wonder?




Posted by U.B.C.S. Nick

Maybe wesker infected the enemys with a new type of virus. After leon got back, chris went to find out the problem? You never know...

Every Xbox title is Live supported, but in what way is this one?



Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

I'm hoping for DLC. If it plays like RE4, it would be a pretty crappy online. UNLESS... Zombie survival co-op?




Posted by Klarth

Saddler and Wesker are in it.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Saddler's alive? I guess that explains the easy final battle, then.

DLC is a given. The title is too large to not get it.

A sort of RE Outbreak with new gameplay if it went Co-op.

Army of Two style of co-op would be pretty awwight. Even an online mod like "DEFEND THE BARN" would be ****ing badass.

Yeah...Heh, maybe a "CAPTURE THE SKULL" game? Shoot you're enemys head off and run home with it.

I just want a confined area where I get to work with other guys to stop myself from being eaten. Kinda like the section in RE4 where you hide in the hut with Luis and are attacked from every direction. But harder.

Oh right, I thought you were implying something like Attack & Defend in Vegas. :o

So it's taking place in Africa eh? hmm, not hard to imagin a virus spreading rapidly there. I wonder, since it's in africa, if were going to get leopards and lions that are infected. It would be a cool boss battle to fight an inffected elephant IMO.




Posted by U.B.C.S. Nick

They already have that sort of fight in RE Outbreak 2, in a zoo.




Posted by WillisGreeny

True, but I'm thinking they might do it again.




Posted by EvilDeadGamer

a direct con. of RE4 huh? Must have something to do with Ada taking the sample from Leon at the end. i like how there re-introducing the old chars. in new games, thought i might add that in.

EDIT: also do we know an ETA? i havent heard anything lately




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

2008.

Also, I'm kinda looking forward to Silent Hill 5 more now.

i've been waiting for five reasons to buy a new 360....

i now have my fifth reason :-D

Killing blacks = sold




Posted by Speedfreak

Why do all the people in the trailer look like something out of Gary's mod?

Jeez, I picked up on that too. The black City 17 resident, right?

The released pictures look great. Is that a STARS logo I see on Chris?




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

There's an alternate version of the trailer out there. It includes black people throwin' grappling hooks and generally causing all kinds of terror.




Posted by Bebop

Is it defo Chris Redfield?




Posted by Speedfreak

Yeah, still doesn't look anything like him though, what the hell?




Posted by Fate

I think he does. It's Chris but older and with a five o'clock shadow.

And a different head.




Posted by EvilDeadGamer

oh yea, the silent hill games are awesome. the only one ive ever played thru a lot of was number 4, but i quit it becuase half the game was backtracking. and i hate backtracking. also if there a way to kill those zombie/ghost/spirit things permanetly, without using a sword of obediance?




Posted by Fate

They could've just designed him with more detail. He looks older because they squared his jaw and mussied his hair.




Posted by Bebop

I did some research. It hasnt been officially confirmed its Mr Redfield but it's pretty much assumed it is. I think it looks like Chris personally. I do hope Leon is in the game though. Im gay for his golden locks.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

It's confirmed.


Quoted post: Chris Redfield Returns in Resident Evil 5
Producer confirms main protagonist as former S.T.A.R.S member.
By Yoshi Sato, 07/18/2007
This week's Famitsu has revealed more details on Resident Evil 5 which was recently shown at E3.

The story takes place roughly 10 years after the Raccoon Incident in the first Resident Evil game. The character which we've seen in the trailer is confirmed to be former S.T.A.R.S. member Chris Redfield. He now works for an organization called BSAA and was sent to a location (shown in the trailer) to investigate on a special case. Producer Jun Takeuchi comments, "What has happened to Chris during these 10 years? By showing his past, we can begin to unravel things that were not resolved in Resident Evil 4. In fact, Resident Evil 5 will retain most of its gameplay style [from Resident Evil 4] with some new features which I cannot talk about yet at this point."

The producer did mention though that the game will have more distinction between light and darkness, "For example, as Chris enters a building, his eyes has to gradually adjust to the dark indoors. The same can be said with the opposite where stepping out from a dark place would cause glare to his eyes."

He also adds, "The enemies this time are not zombies nor are they Los Ganados either, but are quite smart, human-like creatures. One of the main theme in this game is that Chris is fighting for a cause that is not really clear. Is he fighting for good or evil?"

The E3 trailer will be available on Xbox Live Marketplace this July 27 in Japan so expect to see it on North American around the same time as well.

Mr. Kim! Get me a status report!...That's last year's status report! Mr. Tuvok, escort Mr. Kim to the nearest airlock and introduce him to the nubula we decided to fly through for no good reason! [/Janeway]

That's it, Kim's finished.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

oh gees, the trailer was 3 minutes? I never knew that...

wow if that is what the game looks like then the people in RE5 are the most realistic looking people in a video game so far! They look like real people! You can the pores in their faces like in the pre-rendered 2005 E3 Killzone trailer. Wow! This is going to be a great game!




Posted by Anti-Muffla

lol thats great. That is why the 360 e3 pretty much sucked, because they wasted the surprise on RE5 when we already knew about it for a while.
