After what felt like an eternity of playtime, we've run into an issue. Our saved data has vanished, completely. Weapons, bonus unlocks, progress and additional modes are no longer available on our 'veteran' save data. We had at least three game completions under the pair's belt and several maxed-out weapons."

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.
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.
After multiple play throughs.. multiple weapon unlocks.. about to start Pro mode, i loaded up my game today it seemed normal enough however when i go into the play game menu the Item Management option was red and Mercenaries had disappeared..
After some investigation on the Capcom website it seems i am not alone, multiple users are complaining of this error.
I seriously hope this does not happen again as I would be hard pushed to want to start the game from fresh a third time.
p.s I always go back to the main menu before i quit so i don't think it is corrupted because of the save file.
Hopefully this could be fixed with a patch.
after about 6 hours playtime on my 1st run through this happened to me!
can not find a solution to this other than starting again which sucks
i know its not bad on my 1st play through but i feel sorry for the likes of FullaUK who lost all that data
makes me wonder if i should keep going?
Because so far, mine is working fine. I'm loving the game and I plan on playing it 2 more times before I start mercenaries.
luv the external 320G drive...I now back up my game saves routinely
