A video comparison for Resident Evil 5 on the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 by IGN. Available only for IGN Insiders.
Circana data shows Resident Evil 5 as the best selling Resident Evil game in the US, ahead of Resident Evil 4 remake and Village.
So the most successful RE is the one where a white man is killing Africans.
This can't be real.
New leaks from Dusk Golem detail cancelled Resident Evil projects, including a Rebecca focused Revelations game, while stating no Resident Evil 5 remake is in development.
Capcom's willingness to invest in experiments and scrap them sets them apart form many other developers (Nintendo have a similar methodology). Far too often companies push a game setting or game mechanic that is just not that good and the final product is middling or poor.
Dusk Golem claims a Resident Evil 5 remake is not coming this year, with a Code Veronica remake expected instead.
Dude Code Veronica is bad too but RE5 and 6 were mega successful and to me it makes much more sense for Capcom to do them instead. Nobody cares about Code Veronica except niche fixed camera era RE fans, i bet most modern RE fans probably don't know Code Veronica even exists. Based on all that i don't believe CV remake is coming but we will see i guess.
Actually RE5-6 was not Classic RE game.. They are not even Survival Horror game.. They are just an action game with coop and named by RE... And for me RE Code Veronica was masterpiece.. I remembered the first time i played it in Dreamcast.. It was absouletly excellent game. And specially for RE6.. I was quit from game after the camera shakes when Leon's kick to zombies.. There's a video about RE6 and they are telling the truth about that shitty game https://www.youtube.com/wat... here it is.. Enjoy it..
people are DYING for a Code Veronica Remake. Not sure who you are talking to, but the die-hard RE fans of the series are very familiar with every entry. That's what it means to be called a die-hard fan.

I am sure If they were to remake CV that it 2ont have fixed camera angle. I hope whatever they do they take their time like RE2/4 remakes and not rushed with cut content like RE3 remake
Before they should do RE5 they should go back and remake earlier games. In a perfect scenario we would get CV and RE/Zero before RE5/6
It makes more sense for them to remake earlier games like Code Veronica. RE5 is a good game though - it's not THAT different from RE4.
RE5 just doesn't really need to remade in general. The co-op element makes it tricky - you'd probably add more moments where Chris is by himself enhance the horror but some would want co-op to stay.
RE:5 Was and still is a great game, with hands down the best Merc mode, that I still play from time to time with my brother.
RE:6 blah, I agree, it was awful.
Other than Code Veronica, 6 is the one ai want to see remade the most only because pretty much everything has to be redone; can't streamline that hot mess.
6 was pretty bad. 5 just tried too hard in being an action-oriented RE4.
In some fairness to Capcom, 5 was the first Resident Evil on then-new hardware for them (X360 and PS3). And it was pretty damn hard to follow up RE4.
Imagine everyone's surprise when EA of all companies dropped Dead Space.
The first half of 5 wouldn't be too hard to do in the more grounded style the remakes have gone for, but the second half gets pretty silly and uncomfortable at parts.
6 is a wash. You'd have to basically make a whole new game to salvage that one at this point.
Hopefully if and when they do a RE5 remake, they give it the RE3 remake treatment, because this is certainly one title that I don't want a faithful remake of.
Ohh boy... this won't end well.

360 had sharper textures and better lighting. PS3 has better colors. But I'm getting the PS3 version cause i like the controller better for this game.
These things are pointless; only someone playing both back-to-back and going over things with a fine-toothed comb would find differences. It's the same damned game.

Just know that the PS3 demo was a build or two behind the 360 demo when they were released. I played both to death too, and the 360 was drastically better, especially in split-screen co-op. This seems to be fixed, though, as the two versions look very very similar in this comparison.
That said, I still feel the 360 version is looking better. Even beyond what they pointed out in the video, the textures and shine effects seem to be better. Although I hear there's a lot of ugly screen tearing in the 360 version that is absent in the PS3 version.
This poses a problem for me. I always get the better looking multiplat, and when one isn't definitively better than the other, I go with the controls I feel more comfortable with (which is why I got Dead Space and Prince of Persia on PS3). The problem is that I really want to play online co-op at some point, which would require me getting it for the PS3 because I don't want to pay for online gaming. At the same time, this will probably be a very rare occurrence and I'll likely be playing it split screen. I'm really leaning toward the 360 version, but I guess I'll just rent both to see if the disparities are really that great.
PS- Did anyone notice that Chris wears an armband in the PS3 version but not in the 360 one?
