Resident Evil 5 might not be quite the gaming masterpiece people were hoping for, but there are still plenty of reasons you should consider adding it to your gaming arsenal: excellent visuals, Resi 4-esque gunplay love, and a hugely enjoyable online co-op mode. The good news is that both Xbox 360 and PS3 games are worth serious consideration, but only one version will emerge triumphant from the uncompromising scrutiny of the Eurogamer Thunderdome.
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.

Again with the 200% zoom and slow down the game 1000% to notice a difference. The only clear difference you'll see is the framerate drops vs screen tearing. Whichever one you prefer and whichever one you play more online with is the version to get, enough with these dumb comparisons.
They actually mentioned the truth the fact that the 360 has no Vsync and that video comparison shows a couple less impressive textures on the ps3 and the 360 unable to keep a frame from tearing, very funny, seriously if you are a graphics whore on a 32" or above tv vsync is absolutely crucial. From playing the demos the ps3 is the version for me.
"While the overall look of the game is very close on both machines, the Xbox 360 version wins out with the inclusion of a bit more bling for your money."
"It runs at native 720p, and employs the use of full-on 4x multisampling anti-aliasing on Xbox 360, while using the 2x Quincunx technique on PS3."
"(the) Xbox 360 runs with v-lock disengaged, while the PlayStation 3 code has absolutely no tearing whatsoever. However, similar to Grand Theft Auto IV - which operates in the same way - the Xbox 360 version has a tangible advantage here on two fronts. Firstly, it drops far fewer frames than the PS3 code, and secondly, the response from the controls is significantly crisper, particularly when the environments are chockfull of opponents."
"And so we come to the absolute crux of the issue here if you're fortunate enough to own both machines: which release to buy if you own both systems. Game content is identical on both machines, and while PS3 owners still get a decent enough version, it's the Xbox 360 rendition that is clearly the more attractive, solid and more playable game."
Haha uh no it actually has more AA by a long shot it wins for many, many reasons as stated;
Right off the bat, it's worth saying that Resident Evil 5 on PS3 is a much more impressive conversion than Lost Planet, but it does still share some of its shortcomings: the frame-rate is lower on stressful scenes, there are a few missing special effects, and in common with all the previous games based on the same platform, it requires a big install. In this case, a whopper 4.8GB of your hard drive, taking ten minutes to transfer from the Blu-ray disc, up against the optional 6.7GB of the NXE installed 360 version.
