Resident Evil 5 Glitches

Regenerate items
Chapter 2-1, take all the items at the beginning and then Quit the game. Return to the game by selecting "Continue" and you will begin Chapter 2-1 with the items you got before you quit the game, however, the items at the beginning (you took just now) are still at the same place, so you can obtain them again. Repeat the same thing to get as many as you like.
Note: This works on any stage, this is just one example of how to benefit from it. -
Versus Midnight Wesker - Play without buying.
If you have battle suit Jill and Wesker S.T.A.R.S. unlocked, then go to a versus mode game, when your there, choose your selected team, next, press the "RT" button until you get to Wesker S.T.A.R.S., after this tap RT and LT at the same exact time and you should be able to play as Midnight Wesker without buying him.
