On page 13 of the latest financial report from CAPCOM, a list of games for the 2008 financial year appears; Resident Evil 5 is on it.
Resident Evil 5 launched 15 years ago today - and it continues to stand as a stepping stone from the good to the bad.
One of my favourites because of the co-op. Then Resi 6 arrived and the series nosedived further.
I enjoyed the game co-oping with a friend I know the game in solo the AI can be an idiot but RE5 is way better then RE6. I played RE6 with a friend if it wasn't cheap when I got I would have avoided RE6.
5 was excellent, still play Mercs with my brother.
I would love a fully remastered RE:5, with some added, reworked content. The DLC for 5 was also excellent.
6 was awful.
I never understood why the game was misunderstood. It was a fantastic game at launch and is still fun today to play. It’s as action packed as Resident Evil 4 was, yet that’s regarded a masterpiece 🤷♂️
it was "misunderstood" because they introduced co-op into the franchise at a time when people loved to have fake rage about co-op. like, you could play the game as a solo experience, but people chose to have their bandwagon rage because it was cool at the time lol
Try to cope with your friend through terror with this list featuring the best horror Co-Op games you can play today.
An exploration of whether RE5 is truly the most logical next step for a remake, or whether there are others in line who deserve their day in the sun.
Remake of Resident evil outbreak as well as file 2. Same gameplay as the recent remakes. Choose what ever character you want to play as. With online co op.
Nope.
Rather remake other past Capcom & non-mainline RE games ... IF they have to continue churning out Remakes.
I'd rather want a new 3rd person RE spin-off
Dino Crisis and Onimusha Reboot
New IPs after Pragmata ships
Well actually it is a simultaneous release, cool December just got hotter in Australia this year;). Awesomeness and people said 2007 can't be topped;)
I agree.
Well it's on a finacial report and most companies count Jan - Mar of next year as part of the current year. Not to be a party pooper but I really don't think RE5 will be this year.
is this fiscal year, or calendar year? i would assume fiscal year, and that could mean anytime until next june according to some fiscal calendars.
Yeah, on page 14 of the pdf linked, it lists RE5 as a Fiscal Year 08 planned release. On the first page of the pdf, it shows Capcom's fiscal year ending March 31, 2009.
So, if it's released in FY 08, it could be as late as March 2009 and seeing how it's listed as "planned", it still might not get released even by then.
