Well after all the fuss going around about being able to run and shoot in upcoming action survival horror Resident Evil 5 seems to be a complete fabrication.
Official Xbox Magazine has claimed on their twitter;
"watching the RE5 OXM Report on Inside Xbox. No, you cannot run and shoot in RE5, despite what the Capcom guy said in the clip!"
Wait? I'm confused OXM & Capcom. Shouldn't the Capcom rep know what he is on about? Why was this information released on Inside Xbox by OXM in the first place? Who knows what they are talking about!!?
Next week, Console Monster has been invited to a swanky Resident Evil 5 event in London to test out the game. As soon as we have had a good hands on playthrough (and a cheeky peek into the control options) we shall let you know what is going on.
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
Isn't this a well-known fact since the beginning?
is going on then?
I'm glad. While I would have liked to be able to move while aiming it keeps the Resident Evil franchise in the hands of hardcore fans and sticks 2 fingers up to the 'run & gun' complainers...
That sucks, I guess I won't be getting it then. I just can't stand the controls at all.
Its not getting Gears of war style walk n shoot
it takes any of the challenge and suspense of the old games had
I'm glad Capcom didnt faulter under all the complainers (who obviously didnt play the old games)
Go Capcom!
