There is no action control scheme, it was a rumor.

OXM Review - 9

+ An action spectacular with terrific production values
+ Excellent Co-op game
- Item management and control issues
? Will evil arise from the ashes of Racoon City?

"live/multiplayer: 2 in co-op and a secret unlockable mode"

"15-20 hours of playtime"

"16 levels"

"two weeks after we finished the game. what's stuck in our minds isn't that (unlockable) mini-game, or even the control or inventory bugaboos. it's the moments. with its powerhouse presentation and slam-bam co-op play, resident evil 5 is chock full of memorable gameplay experiences"

"for those new to the series, resident evil 5 may not be what you expect. it's neither scary not survival horror, and though its story throws plenty of love to longtime fans, you don't need to be one to enjoy it. ultimately it's an action feast for two - with just a little gristle amid all the delicious blood, bone and brains"

Re: Resident Evil 5 announced for Xbox 360 &amp; PS3

I may have to pick this one up when it comes out. I'm not crazy about the controls... hate 'em, actually, but the story really has me intrigued!

What ever happened to Jill?

Re: Resident Evil 5 announced for Xbox 360 &amp; PS3

I'm sure we will find out, judging by the new trailer. Either her or Claire.

Well judging by the videos, (Will put in Spoiler Tags just in case)

Spoiler

Wesker looks to be in this game, and you see a cut scene where he has someone in a chair with a bag over thier head. Maybe that is Jill....

Next Resident Evil to be a reboot.

...

1UP

In what is destined to be the first genuinely epic game of 2009, Resident Evil 5 is practically guaranteed to be the last of its kind, with the game's producer, Jun Takeuchi, assuring us that a reboot is in order for the inevitable Resident Evil 6. That's not to suggest that there's anything wrong with the evil at hand. Quite the opposite; it's awesome fun, and we've beaten the game from beginning to end, and have a week's worth of detailed, insider info for you to enjoy. Check out our exclusive interview, videos of unseen levels, and our final hands-on preview to see if Capcom's controversial new survival-horror game lives up to its legacy.

Is anyone else curious to know about the thought process of naming RE main city, Raccoon City? Maybe it is just me but the one thing that still bothers me to this day about Resident Evil is the Name Raccoon city...

Arstechnica mole is right again.

Red Resident Evil 5 Xbox 360 bundle: it's real!

The Resident Evil 5 Xbox 360 bundle is totally a real thing that people will be able to buy! We kind of assumed that the bundle, containing a red system and a copy of the game, wasn't just some rumor, but now we have confirmation that is about as official as anything can be: an Xbox 360 told us! Check your spotlight -- it should be the second-to-last card.

The bundle features, of course, a red system and wireless controller, as well as a copy of the game (which stars Chris Redfield!) It also includes a wired headset, a 120GB hard drive, an exclusive Resident Evil premium theme, and Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix! All this for -- oh, we don't know how much, actually, nor do we know when it'll be available. Toys R Us said $399 for the price, and we're inclined to believe it.
