Product Details:

From the ashes of old conflicts, a new terror arises. The Umbrella Corporation and its crop of lethal viruses have been destroyed and contained. But a new, more dangerous threat has emerged. Years after surviving the events in Raccoon City, Chris Redfield has been fighting the scourge of bio-organic weapons all over the world. Now a member of the Bio-terrorism Security Assessment Alliance (BSAA), Chris is sent to Africa to investigate a biological agent that is transforming the populace into aggressive and disturbing creatures. Joined by another local BSAA agent, Sheva Alomar, the two must work together to solve the truth behind the disturbing turn of events. Featuring a revolutionary new co-op mode of gameplay, Resident Evil 5 will let players experience fear together as terror moves out of the shadows and into the light of day.

Key Features:

Two Playable Characters - Chris Redfield, protagonist of the original Resident Evil and Resident Evil: Code Veronica, returns and is joined by new playable character Sheva Alomar, an African BSAA agent tasked with investigating the epidemic.
Two Player Online Co-op - New cooperatively-focused gameplay revolutionizes the way that Resident Evil is played. Chris and Sheva must work together to survive new challenges and fight dangerous hordes of enemies.
Next Generation of Fear - Features groundbreaking graphics that utilize an advanced version of Capcom's proprietary game engine, MT Framework, which powered the hit titles Devil May Cry 4, Lost Planet and Dead Rising.
"Quick-Select" Inventory System - Improved inventory system allows items to be traded between characters. To add to the intensity, all inventory management is done in real time; items can even be assigned to the directional pad for instant access.
New Control Schemes - Features new modernized third-person action game control variations as well as the return of the traditional Resident Evil 4 control schemes.
New Enemies Bring New Challenges - Enemies boast increased speed and intelligence, making them as dangerous alone as they are in groups.
Powerful New Weapons - The number of weapon variations has been greatly increased providing new ways to keep enemies at bay.
Fear Light as much as Shadow - Lighting effects provide a new level of suspense as players attempt to survive in both harsh sunlight and extreme darkness.

Dark 0rigin

Waiting for this game to come out was pretty much torture, and now that it's finally out, Resident Evil fans can rejoice. Resident Evil 5 continues the evolution of the Resident Evil saga, but it doesn't stray far (in terms of gameplay) from Capcom's previous title: Resident Evil 4. The gameplay is almost identical to Resident Evil 4, but with a few additions: you can use special melee attacks when your enemies are off balance, and Resident Evil has become a co-op experience. If you haven't played Resident Evil 4, the controls may seem a bit clunky and may take time to get used to. However, if you're an RE4 veteran, it shouldn't be any trouble to get the hang of things. The co-op was a very interesting addition to this game. At first I didn't like the co-op at all, mainly because the AI for your partner, Sheva, is pretty much garbage. However, if you play through the game with a friend or some other human being, it's very fun and offers a high replay value. The story line is pretty good, especially if you've played through the other Resident Evil games. If you haven't played any of the others, I suggest researching the story line. That way you can get the most out of this game. A few of the dialogues in this game were a bit ridiculous, but it wasn't anything major that would hinder your enjoyment of the Resident Evil saga. In terms of the horror aspect of this game, I didn't find it to be terrifying. There where a few moments when playing co-op with my friend that we both jumped and cursed in surprise, but overall it wasn't very scary. In terms of an action game however, Resident Evil 5 is one of the best out there. If you've played any of the other Resident Evil games there shouldn't be any doubt in your mind to buy this game, if you haven't already. For gamers who haven't yet experienced what this saga has to offer, now would be a good time to start.

I finally picked this game up and all I can say is WOW! RE4 is what got me into this genre and RE5 takes another big step forward in the gameplay, with the co-op, new inventory system, and streamlined controls, it is really an amazing video game. The main story is not too long, much shorter than RE4, but it has much more replayability. After you beat the game, You actually want to go through again on the next hardest difficulty and play around with all the wepons and outfits you unlock. If you have been waiting to buy this game, do yourself a favor and pick it up today.

I enjoyed my time with Resident Evil 5, but they're are a few things that are kind of annoying to me. First off the story is pretty good but they're aren't any "Oh my goodness did that seriously just happen moments!" moments. I recommend that you play with a friend because playing with an A.I. is kind of boring. It controls very well but navigating your supply menu could be a hassle when your being attacked by zombies. Now I don't really understand the purpose of a knife. yes it's good for breaking crates and attacking downed enemies but other than that I forgot I had a knife. The controls for the knife is a little confusing you have to hold L2 then press R1 to swing. Its a bit awkward. The other thing that I don't care for is not being able to move and shoot at the same time. Yes I know this is a Resident Evil game and Capcom probably wanted to make it "feel" like a Resident Evil game. but it's a dated mechanic. The graphics are really good, its no Uncharted 2, but its good nonetheless. Without giving off any spoilers the final boss battle is pretty cool, but it goes on and on to the point where there is not much enjoyment to be had. Overall I enjoyed Resident Evil 5. Is it my favorite game? No, but if you are a Resident Evil fan definitely check this out if you haven't already.

I recomend this game to players who can handle horror movies. This is one of those games that is great to play with a friend at home or wi-fi style. In order to invite a friend have your game playing and select only friends can join when asked and you start/load your game. Then at the title screen press the home button on your playstation control while your already signed in on your playstation netowork account.Go to your registered friend's name and press the triangle button your your control on there name. Then click Invite this player while your friend is signed in and playing the RE5 game too. Then you press the home button wait for your friend to accept the invitation on the weapons menu. Then when your friend joins the game will tell you. You are not playing as a team wi fi style. Both players keep there own weapons form there own saved games which is great.

RE5 was one of those "Hit or Miss" games. Although I enjoyed the action-packed gameplay, the lack of horror and the RE feel was what made me give it a 7. I enjoy all of the RE games, but this one was a bit disappointing. Most true RE fans love the survival horror aspect of the series, but RE5 just didn't cut it. Overall, the game is a good game. The gameplay, graphics, and sound were excellent. Lasting appeal....if you expected a little horror and eerie environments, then you won't get it for the most part here.

I would recommend this game to anybody who likes a good, entertaining, and solid action game. Happy playing!

This is the best game i ever have played. This is also my very first rated M game! I never have played resident evil before, and this was a good start to become a big fan. The co-op is awesome playing with real psn friends in the story. The game is hard at some points but i like a challenge. The gameplay is awesome ( once you get used to it) and the sounds is good as well. The lasting appeal is great cause you get dried up one day then the next day you want to play it so much, like i feel now! The graphics are better then uncharted in my perspective and i looks real at some points. The bosses are huge and great. I thing that the chain saw dudes are the hardest bosses. ( spoiler alert). Resident evil has a long history and you are into the story. Im only half way in the story so i dont know what is next. But im glad i got this game. Thank you Capcom!

Great game. The terror feeling isn't as strong as in other games, but that same impending doom feeling is still there. Great game to play over and over, especially with a friend. Extremely fun and action packed. Perfect for veteran and new RE fans alike. You do not want to miss out on this one.

i didnt like that there was 9 slots for weapons and items i could very easily get 4x the items no problem i wish it would have been closer to re4 in that aspect i didnt like that every chapter seemed like it had a boss u get tired of bosses very easily and u upgrade ur weapons alot quicker on this one i dont know if it was just me or if others felt this way but i hope the next one is alot better because i dont want to drop this series
