Resident Evil 5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not that you care. I do.

“Yes, it is true Resident Evil fans, the launch date of Resident Evil 5, which will be for PS3 and the Xbox 360, is pushed back to 2009! But not to worry, this just means that the team at Capcom is working hard to make the latest installment of the Resident Evil franchise better than ever. Despite the pushed back release date, parts of the story and news on the gameplay have been revealed.

According to the Japanese video game magazine Famitsu, the story revolves around Chris Redfield and takes place about 10 years after the original Resident Evil. With Chris being the main character, much of his life will be revealed as to what happened to him during the interim of the original Resident Evil and Resident Evil 5. From the footage from the trailer, which can be found on Gamtrailers.com, it is seen that Chris is part of a group called BSAA sent to investigate some incident that is taking place in the desert where some freak accident occurs and the people are infected with something causing them to be overly aggressive.

As for gameplay, it will somewhat resemble a Resident Evil 4 feeling, but with some new features. One of the latest features to be revealed is the role of the environment in the game. If the player controls Chris in the sun too much, Chris will begin to hallucinate and see mirages. Also, if the player goes from a bright place to a dark place, the player will momentarily lose vision on the screen as Chris will have to adjust his eyes to the surroundings. How realistic can that get?! It seems that Capcom is putting some hard work into Resident Evil 5 to make it one of the best games of the franchise.

Also, Hiroyuki Kobayashi, the game’s former producer, said that this game will pick up where Resident Evil 4 ended.

Resident Evil 5 will surely capture the attention of gamers everywhere. With Chris Redfield being the main character once more, fans of the original Resident Evil will certainly want to pick this game up once it is released in 2009. With a new set of enemies and a different setting, Resident Evil 5 seems more deadly and thrilling than the games before it. The question is: Will you make it out alive?” -Von Jared Omo at http://www.ps3informer.com

I didn’t feel like writing about it and this guy did a pretty good job, so i just copied and pasted. haha :]

Anywayyyyy I can’t wait until this game comes out. Only one more year until the sequel for Resident Evil 4 comes out.

Notice how all the zombies are black, no Capcom’s Resident Evil 5 isn’t racist, although for someone reason many people believe the game is very offensive because the village is only black people, the game takes place in Africa what do you expect? I highly doubt that the small villages there are gonna be filled with anything else other than black people.

If you haven’t noticed I am a HUGE fan of the Resident Evil series. Definitely the best thing to happen to this world :]
