The official Resident Evil 5 thread.

The final mercenary bit was insane trying to get 88000 (or some 80k number) points. The next tier to get the highest is 150000 points.

[Destor]

Yeah Proffesional is actually challenging. Vetreran was pretty easy. And the Mercenary is pretty rough, but a blast. Just started it. Co-Op is the only way to play this btw.

[Destor]

Loved the game, truely, but 4 was better. Just throwing that out there.

I wish they had incorperated a little of RE Zero stuff as far as the two charecters thing goes though.

[D Mac]

This is probably another game I will give up on and never beat.

[Kane86]

This game is fucking awesome plain and simple as that. IF you disagree with me I will kick you in the balls adn if your a girl (like FourFifty). I will kick you in the vagina.

[Kane86]

I have beat Amatuer and Soldier on it so far going for the triple crown now by beating it on Veteran..

[G]

I still have it unopened. Probably going on eBay this week.

[Requiem]

Only like 3 levels to beat to unlock professional. Game is INTENSE.

[Kane86]

Professional is one hit and you get killed....

[Requiem]

so

[Destor]

Pro is the goods. Really makes the game fun.

[Kane86]

I have not got it yet but I would like to try it at least once....

[Kalyx triaD]

Versus Pack goes up in 24hrs.

Not worth the points.

IGN:


February 9, 2010 - The mystery surrounding those two final Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition Mercenaries Reunion characters has been solved courtesy of Japan's Weekly Famitsu magazine. In its latest issue, the magazine reports that Rebecca Chambers and Barry Burton will make it into the revamped Mercenaries mode as new playable characters.

This is the last bit of information before Gold Edition hits the Japanese PS3 next week under the name Resident Evil 5 Alternative Edition. Worldwide, the game is coming to PS3 and Xbox 360. All the content, including the Mercenaries Reunion characters, will be made available to current RE5 owners via paid downloads.

In addition to the new character reveal, Famitsu also printed the first review of Gold Edition. The magazine's four reviewers awarded the game a high 10, 9, 9 and 9 (each score is out of 10). The new Lost in Nightmares episode earned praise for its strong puzzle element which hakens back to the classic Resident Evil. While the new episodes are short, they have "random elements" and score attack opportunities.

Sounds like a worthy update both for new buyers who go with the disc version and for current owners who go for the downloads.

Love to see their new models, wonder if they deviated from the GCN models (some of the best VG models ever, IMO).

[DaBrasko]

Lost in Nightmares let me down :(

[Kalyx triaD]

It has a ton of new characters for multiplayer, that would satisfy me. Don't expect much from the new mansion area.

[D Mac]

Traditional Zombies are back in it aren't they?

[Kalyx triaD]

I don't think so.

[Big Fat Mike]

hayyyy rebecca died in Resident Evil 1. Well...I let her die anyway. When the hunter had her cornered, I ran like a bitch

[D Mac]

I don't think so.

Could have sworn I saw you fighting zombies in a trailer for the new content.

[Kalyx triaD]

Makes your question kinda silly then. :p

[DaBrasko]

I was pumped for there to be like a whole mansion and lab to explore.... instead there are like 10 rooms and a dungeon, no classic zombies :(
