Resident Evil 5 is scheduled for release on March 5, 2009 in Japan, and March 13, 2009 in North America and Europe.

Resident Evil 5's setting will have a similar feel to the film Black Hawk Down.Takeuchi added that the development team is composed of staff members who worked on the first Resident Evil.

Of course I am. I don't need to play the demo to decide(though I did :P) the game looks and plays so frickin awesome. Killing the villagers with the enhanced gameplay mechanics feels more satisfying and that melee punch is a 10/10 alone. Not to mention the beautiful explosions in the game.

out of curiosity, why? The PC port for RE 4 was hideous, especially with respect to the controls.

My faith in Capcom has been restored with the fine port that is Devil May Cry 4. And this time around it's CD Projekt (guys behind Witcher) that's doing the port, not Ubisoft, so maybe it'll be better this time around.

I still don't get why you'd risk it though, when the PS3 version is more guaranteed. That said, unless you use a gamepad (which in some ways defeats the purpose), i've never been one to understand people who prefer third person action games on PC. Are you expecting the graphics to be that much better, or?

The bad news is that RE5 will have a mandatory install of 5GB. I thought Capcom said there wouldn't be an install so this is disappointing.

Haha, yes I do own a Logitech chillstream controller, and it's usually for multiplatform games. When a game runs best on the PC, i'll get it for PC. (Prince of persia, Fallout 3, Mirror's Edge) I did get RE4 for the PS2 though, because it takes a long time for the PC version to come out on stores. (and it's a bad port anyway)

hm. I liked PoP way more on PS3, but the other two games you mentioned i can't really dispute. The freezing issues in Mirror's Edge alone was enough to cause a rage or two.

from playing the demo, the only reason the game is tough is because of the bad controls. enemy AI wasnt anything special but the controls r so frustrating

Just asking out of curiosity... What makes the controls bad? Aren't they the same as RE4?

I may buy it when it hits about 20 or 30 dollars. I've got plenty of other shooters on my plate right now. Now, if it was in the vein of the original REs I would probably pick it up day one.

i never played RE4, but the player moves much too sluggishly in my opinion. its very frustrating when numbers of enemies are around you and your player turns and moves so slowly. also, not being able to run and shoot at the same time is annoying.

I was extremely hyped for this game until I played the demo last night. I hate the menu system because you have to select it then equip it, and if it is a item decide who you want to use it on. Also the AI partner can handle herself from what I seen but feels like a hassle just having her there. I wish they made it the standard single player and had an online horde mode (like gears 2) or something like outbreak with different maps.

I'm not as excited as I was when the game was first shown but I'm certain RE5 will be a great game.

Must buy for me.

YES, I am buying RE5! I just played the demo and I loved it. The new controls took some getting used to.

But, The Online Co-Op was AWESOME, and would work perfect with voice chat through Skype.

after playing the demo, it's moved from a day-one buy, to a 'I dunno... maybe if i get bored and it goes pretty cheap-buy'. It just lacked excitement, and the controls were crap.

Well since I am a poor college student, I currently only have money for one game. I can't decide on getting Killzone 2 or Resident Evil 5? The thing is, everyone seems like Killzone 2 is going to be the greatest game in history, but it is just another FPS. I can't decide on what I want.

Yes in a year or so. The demo was terrible. Might get Street Fighter 4 now instead. Can't believe they're calling it a survial horror because it's not even the slightest bit scary.

No i was disapointed by the demo AI is terible the enemy runs and stops 4 feet infront of you making them far too easy to kill, the controls are rubbish, Sheva is usless and it plays WAY too much like RE4 and is far more linear this time round and i dont think the graphics are that good on either system IMO. RE is ruined please capcom bring it back like the way it was :(

Nope. I HATE the controls and decisions Capcom made. Standing still to shoot is stupid. They do it to keep the game scary? RE was never scary! You can shoot in move in Dead Space and THAT game is actually scary!

I agree with the friendly AI. I've taken to calling RE 4 and 5 the Resident Evil: Babysitter series.
