"The first fear in relation to the co-op experience, that your partner Sheva's AI will hamper your effectiveness, is largely unfounded. Instead she is as useful as you want her to be. If you give her some decent weapons and take advantage of the basic commands system, she becomes very handy in a fight, particularly in regards to assisting you when attacked. The only time she gets unruly is if you walk too far away from her, which triggers her instinct to go collect items on her own, though this can be minimized by sticking together (which then allows you to choose which items she picks up).
No, the real problem with co-op appears before Sheva can even pull the trigger. Resident Evil has always struggled with item management, and RE5's new solution makes RE4's Tetris-like attache cases look heavenly. This time, all items take up one slot in your 9×9 inventory, but space fills up sporadically. You may find yourself with no room to pick up an important item, only to pass it on to Sheva for safekeeping. After an intense fight, you may find some extra space available, forcing you to swap items back and forth with her, and hoping she didn't chew up any ammo you passed on."

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.
