My main problem with this is that it's control scheme involves holding the DualShock in one hand and the wand in the other. How the hell is that ideal?
Wait, what? Is the new content that you get to play through RE1 AGAIN?
Capcom hinted that an Xbox 360 edition of the game is also planned. "In regards to the Xbox 360, a lot of fans have enjoyed the game on the console. So we are working to release the additional content in another format, as a product." Project lead Miho Suzuki did not mention if the title was one of the Project Natal games that Capcom is currently developing.
I'm not sure what's funnier: the assbackwards control scheme or the Wii fans who are confused and hurt over this (or think this will mean a Wii edition is coming).They will probably make a new Wii RE spin off game eventually (hopefully) that's in third person like RE4 but the controls in the RE4 Wii edition were definitely better than RE5's controls. I don't know how this dual shock/saggle thing will work but people say it's not that bad because the controller is so light.

Will it come to Xbox, too? I don't know if I could stomach the ugly PS3 version of RE5, new content or not.
the second I saw the "Flash back" shit in RE5. Flashbacks to shit that never happened. I knew they'd make a game for it.
can't be any worse than RE5.
What do mean "never happened?"
There have been rumblings that Sony is currently working on a proper Nunchuk peripheral — that it is already in the design phase. Yoshida was unwilling to confirm this secondary peripheral, but did concede that using the PS3 DualShock 3 as a Nunchuk was "the cheapest solution". Yoshida wasn't being glib: While the PS3 DualShock 3 might not make the most attractive Nunchuk solution, it does appear to work.
Meaning? Meaning that gamers won't be forced to shell out for yet another peripheral.
There's a nunchuck in the making. But you can use the DS3 if you don't want to buy the nunchuck.QuoteThere have been rumblings that Sony is currently working on a proper Nunchuk peripheral — that it is already in the design phase.

Sony lets you choose :bow
it'll be sweet to buy the saggle setup and use it for a handful of games before it gets forgotten by devs because it sold like shit.
Oh and what's that other game? The FPS for real hardcore gamers, you know the one.

what's that accent? british with a speech impediment or...? serious question, not trying to make fun of the guy. because there's a lot more material there to rip on than a speech impediment. :lol
Lyte, you're on to something with these distinguished mentally-challenged unboxing vids. this is great.
I kinda get it. I love the smell of shower curtains.
Why does ODST say New Hero if you play different people? Shouldn't it say New Heroes?
You'd think someone would watch a video review from CNET or a site like it and apply what they've seen to their own videos. But no, let's just do five painfully long minutes of bullshit nobody cares about.
Production values people. Even with an old Hi-8 Handicam you can do something fairly decent.

smh at unboxing videos. You could've spent that time actually playing the game!

::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
How am I going to decide if I want to buy the next big Wii game if I can't see what the printed artwork is on the disc??!? I applaud the hard work of these dedicated Youtube enthusiasts. Whatever would we do without it? Do you really want to go back to the world the way it was before anyone could upload video about shit nobody cares about for all to see? The devil you say. THE DEVIL.

You're right, I was wrong. Your post has made me see the error of my ways. From now I'll do nothing but watch unboxing movies.
Asian Babe from GTA DS Strips Off
Chinatown Wars assassin looks killer as she gets her kit off.
By Too Ashamed, January 23, 2008
Has it really come to this?
One look at the 'news aggregation' sites is enough to depress the editorial team of any games website these days.
Apparently, first-hand reporting on titles like GTA: Chinatown Wars for the DS and The Lost and Damned for Xbox 360 in obsessive detail is not enough to compete with, ooh let's see, a story about Microsoft paying $50 million for exclusive GTA content - a story that is currently NINETEEN MONTHS OLD.
So we say, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
This OFFICIAL artwork for Chinatown Wars has never been seen before, and features one of the lead characters TAKING HER CLOTHES OFF.
In the picture, you can see her PINK BRA, CREAMY SKIN, PERT BREASTS and LUSTY LONG LEGS. She also has a KNIFE which is CONTROVERSIAL.
The image, published today, appeared in trade magazine MCV as part of an advert for the game. We scanned it. The end.
capcom is full of shit.
both SFIV and RE5 aren't getting this crap as dlc because the fanbases for both are big enough suckers to buy another retail disc for shit that should be dlc. obviously capcom is aware of this.
you disappoint me capcom but i still love you

SSF4's getting a lot, so it makes sense for it to be on a new disc. They said it won't be full price; I'm fine with it. With RE5, it is just that smaller new scenario being added. There's no new game play and they're definitely going to be reusing some assets. So it should be released as DLC.
Maybe Capcom will pull a Lost Planet and the new content will be on the Platinum Hits version of RE5.
Hey, what about PC gamers?
A couple of weeks ago, we told you about new Resident Evil 5 content coming as a new Japanese version of the game called RE5 Alternative Edition. We asked you guys to tell us how you wanted to get your mitts on the content and gave you the option to vote for either digital download or a new boxed product. We let the poll run for a couple weeks and then snagged a bunch of your comments from the original blog posting as well as from threads in the forums and presented it all to the RE5 team in Osaka. As of this morning, we had close to 1500 people vote for DLC and close to 900 vote for a new physical product. In addition, we had over 300 comments on the blog posting, which is amazing to all of us here at Capcom.
And here’s an example of Capcom Unity in action: based on your feedback, in North American, European and Australia territories, Capcom will be making the new RE5 content for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 available as downloadable content. You will not be asked to purchase a new copy of the game just to get at the new stuff, just make sure to hold on to your RE5 disc and you’ll be ready to roll in Spring 2010 when we make available new Resident Evil adventures (and some other things we haven’t told you about yet) for you. Keep that in mind when thinking about selling RE5 back or handing it off to a friend ;)
I'll be honest: we had a strong feeling going in that most folks were going to be ticking the box for digital delivery. Seeing as how we were asking you ONLINE to tell us if you would like to nab new game content via the internet, we thought we may have been skewing the results a bit. What surprised us, however, was just how many of you ended up voting for a new physical package. We’re still trying to wrap our heads around this strongly stated position from a vocal range of the community, but we've definitely heard you guys loud and clear as well.
Thanks to all of you as part of Team Unity in helping us reach this decision!
They will include it in a platinum hits release. Dont buy this...
So they're doing both options? That's great news.

We are pleased to confirm today that a variety of new content for the hugely successful RESIDENT EVIL 5 will be available for the Xbox 360 and PS3 next year. We plan to release two new downloadable episodes, a host of new costumes, and a new “MERCENARIES REUNION” mode featuring 8 new playable characters and weapon load outs.
For those RESIDENT EVIL fans who prefer a box copy, we are also happy to report that we will be releasing a RESIDENT EVIL 5: GOLD EDITION that will include the original game plus all additional content, making this the ultimate Resident Evil 5 experience. RESIDENT EVIL 5: GOLD EDITION will be available for $49.99 as a single Blu-ray disc for the PLAYSTATION 3 or as a DVD with a token for the downloadable content for XBOX 360.
Just received the PR, new mercs!
RE5 Gold edition and more dlc details confirmed
Hi
Last week we confirmed that Capcom would be releasing new content for the hugely successful Resident Evil 5 for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Capcom plans to release two new downloadable episodes, a host of new costumes, and a new ‘ The Mercenaries Reunion’ mode, featuring eight new playable characters and weapon load-outs. All of this content will be available for download via Xbox Live and PSN next year.
For those Resident Evil fans who prefer a box copy, we are also pleased to announce that we will be releasing a Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition that will include the original game plus all additional content, making this the ultimate Resident Evil 5 experience. Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition will be available across Europe for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 at a competitive price.
Previously only seen during cut-scenes of the original Resident Evil 5, the first new episode titled ‘ Lost in Nightmares’, finds BSAA agent, Chris Redfield, working with his partner, Jill Valentine, as they investigate Ozwell E. Spencer’s hideaway. Spencer, the evil mastermind and co-founder of Umbrella Corporation, has been concealing a new evil deep within the basement of his mansion. Chris and Jill discover this grotesque evil standing in their way as the two enter deeper into the catacombs beneath the mansion.
Simultaneous with the release of ‘ Lost in Nightmares’ new costumes for Chris and Sheva will be made available, allowing the player to experience Resident Evil 5 with a fresh new look and feel through both game play and cut-scene playback. A refresh of Mercenaries Mode, ‘ The Mercenaries Reunion’, gives players new playable characters and weapon load-outs which provide players additional challenges as they aim to shoot down as many enemies as they can within a limited time. Each piece of downloadable content will contain two new playable characters. The Gold Edition will feature all eight.
Please see below for a release schedule for all additional content:

"what the hell is his problem~?"
RE voice acting :rofl
Looks good. :o
Lyte, I always wondered, are you Japanese? :uguu
The DLC for the first pack is out on 2/17

Yeah, but the end of that trailer says "Biohazard Alternative Edition, 2/18, 4900 Yen."
Dammit Mr. Gundam, I am supposed to be stalking you! :uguu
Dammit Mr. Gundam, I am supposed to be stalking you! :uguu
What's with the random comments about you stalking me, anyway? ???
Capcom announced in its annual report that Biohazard 5 Alternative Edition [Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition] will no longer appear on Xbox 360 in Japan, only the PS3 version will be available. The reason is the low sales of 360 games in Japan. The game will still be available on Xbox 360 in US and Europe.

I'm definitely excited for this as I loved RE5. Hopefully the new episodes are lengthy.

For a total of $14 you get two new scenarios (the first one will even have an RE1-style camera option), Mercs Return with eight new characters, and new skins for Chris and Sheva in the main game. It's a good deal overall. You can skip the costumes if you want and just get the episodes for $5 a pop.
Mercs Return just has new maps/enemy placements, IIRC. It's a lot of fun and blows away the RE4 Mercs, especially in co-op.
Perfect Dark is this week too? Good week!
Can you transfer any items? Or are you stuck using certain weapons. I noticed this adds achievements. Gonna wait until the 2nd DLC is out.
RE5 baby :bow
The chapters didn't come out together? wtf I thought it was a pack for $14 for everything?
lame. Will wait until both are out next month.
lame. Will wait until both are out next month.same
But if I'm going to "get back into RE5" it seems like a waste to do that for 1 hour of gaming and then not touch it for a month and do 1 hour of gaming. I at least want a full night of fun!
How many hours is the bonus content, lyte?
Never played RE5. But it's up on XBLA now for $30. Worth it? Thinking of grabbing a points card for it and the DLC.
Lost In Nightmare scenario > Entire Resident Evil 5 game.
I hope Capcom makes RE6 a lot like LIN. When I ran out of ammo I was like Oh Shi. It heightens the tension and just makes the game a lot scarier.
I want that second DLC if it's supposed to be like RE4
Still don't know if I want the first one.
Gold edition is the game + redeem codes anyway.
Gold edition is the game + redeem codes anyway.
does it work out to be the same price?
I can't remember, but I think Mercenaries mode is unlocked by beating the game.
Mercenaries is probably the only thing I'm gonna do in RE5, lol.
So the GE had nothing that you can't just DLC anyways, correct? I'm probably just gonna go for the regular.
Thanks fro the pricing info, lyte. I was going to buy the gold edition. I still might. =/
Can someone tell me if I can play RE5 Gold online with someone who has vanilla RE5?
I know. I had it on 360 so I'm going to have to do everything again. I got 1000/1000 on 360 version before they added the new trophies and I want my platinum when I get it on ps3!
It'd be great if someone could help me go through vet and hardest mode, so it can be fast and clean.

I want to egg dupe until I have about 1 million bucks. iirc, it takes about 1 million to 1.5 million in order to buy everything.
it's like they put in fixed camera angles to remind us how bad the game controls with them.
Lost in Nightmares is decent. Kinda not enough zombies.
Desperate Escape and Costume Pack #2 are up on XBL.downloading both.
Barely playable seems to be case.Wii version looks great

I wouldnt play DE. Achievements arent on xbox.com yet so theyre all buggy now.

It's not meant to be filled with enemies, although you will get more of them on Veteran/Professional. Desperate Escape, on the other hand, is enemy OVERLOAD.
Desperate Escape and Costume Pack #2 are up on XBL.
Maybe they'll be kind and have a DLC bundle!

I don't know if I should download it now or wait until I have nothing else to play to check it out. Maybe they'll be kind and have a DLC bundle!
Well, I dont buy DLC either. But this isnt just some unlockable key held back stuff (could be - who knows). This is easily worth a quick $10 ($5 each - minus the doofy costume packs).
DE is soooooooooooooo FRUSTRATING. Holy shit. nothing but endless enemies, coming and coming and coming. Then the final bit where you have to survive for 5 minu- no wait the timer resets for another 2 minutes. This will probably be the most frustrating thing on Professional.
