    That monster with a giant axe, looks like he's just come out from silent hill.
    One thing for sure, as the graphic gets better and better, zombies get smarter and smarter (so sad that I can't drive).
    Hope it's worth the wait.

    I'm pretty sure Jill Valentine is the bird woman.

    Some of the battle set pieces can't help but remind me of RE 4. But looking at how good this game is shaping up to be, I don't think the repetition is going to bother me. Fingers crossed guys!!! Another 4 months to go!!!!

    It's gonna be a "kick" to play this game during late at nights all alone in your room.

    Man waiting for this game is so painful! One thing about waiting so long for it is that Capcom now has no excuse for messing it up. The scenes look like a movie at some points.

    Awwwww man, been waiting for this game for so long, same with RESI4 totally worth it. Allthough i wanna see this trailer with Jills gravestone, just so i can get the chills.... good old RESI evil

    Is it me or does Sheva kind of looks like Rosario Dawson? I've never seen anything like this. The scene with the motorcycles looks like the real thing pretty much, and I'm not even watching it in hd lol. How the heck is all that going to be on one disk!?

    atte21, you gotta be kidding, stop focusing so much on sticking to an old formula, while the changes the series has undergone may not sound great, the proof that they are is in playing, RE4 was the most intense experience in the series so far

    Is it just me and my friend or is someone else also a bit disappointed to the "crazy villagers with axes and crossbows"-fenomenon? I am a dedicated fan of the Resident evil series, and I will play this game and it will probably be pretty neat, but I still hear asking myself, is this really Resident evil? Or is an action game with parasitecrazyvillagers. Because in Resident Evil 4 the puzzles were so straight foward that you can't even call them puzzles. I just got the feeling that you were playing more time. I really hope this one gets better puzzles and has more exciting atmosphere.

    Ok I admit I am judging too much but still, I hunger more the old good fashioned survival horror, while it still was survival horror, RE4 was a third person shooter and hopefully this won't be. I want zombies back!

    RESIDENT EVIL 5!!! Been waiting for them to give more detail and everything about it. I love the RE series. THis game is going to be vicious and hella tight.

    Wow, this trailer makes the game look killer. I can't wait to play it! Yeah, it does remind me a lot of Resident Evil 4's gameplay, but bumped up a notch. I'm positive this game will be just as good or better than Resident Evil 4. Chris and Sheva look spectacular working together. I wonder what role the new characters play. I wonder if there will be characters from the past making a cameo? That'd be cool.

  • mrppower

    Posted Oct 4, 2008 8:14 pm PT

    So many hidden characters cant wait...I hope they at least mention Jill, I really do miss her, Im down with there new girl she looks bad ass. But having Jill and Chris again would of completed this game in my eyes...Waited 3 years for this game..and i would wait 3 more...Res best game series of all time...Word!

    can't wait to get this, looks even better than last time I checked for videos! I cant believe the stuff they're gonna be able to make with it, like that scene with the motorbikes and truckes, its gonna rule, I thought RE4 was amazing, but this one goes way beyond amazing... it looks close to perfection now mwahahaha

    to kunglo u have to get both systems cause both systems will have great game s i dont have 360 but i need it to play gears 2 and ninja guiden 2. ps3 has resistence 2 and uncharted was awsome the problem is both consoles dont have enough exclusive games to keep me looking at only one system which is not right if u want better gameplay go with the ps3 for 360 not so much diffrent graphics are the same if u got a sony flat screen hd tv definatly get a ps3. i have a fourty in samsung lcd monitor and my ps3 games klook awsome. maybe when 360 goes down to 100 bucks i will get it next year or if i get it as a gift would be nice

    you see resident evil getting more and more realistic.Instead of trying to find gems or little objects to place for opening doors, you try to focus on surviving.Zombies are great!Fear is so real!

    this game is huge!! but like Daishi512 says''THE GAME HAVE BECOME A MINDLESS GAME.just linear game-play the tradicional resident evil experience is gone!! but its a good game is more a over the shoulder third person shooter like the resident evil original...

  • Daishi512

    Posted Sep 8, 2008 3:21 pm PT

    That was pretty amazing, however i cant help but feel like RE really isnt the same without the shambling rotting masses.
