My God, this new trailer just owned my soul.

The truly awesome part? All of those combat-scenes are IN-GAME, not pre-rendered cutscenes. I seriously doubt the Nintendo Wii could even handle this game without some serious dumbing-down of the architecture. It would cough up blood and die just trying to run it. Regardless, G4 reported yesterday that there won't be a Wii-port of RE5, due to RE4's low sales on the console.

Cant wait to see this one running at full 1080p.

Chris Redfield returneth -- here's hoping he gets to close the deal with that new Jill-lookin' Sheva chick from the trailers; Leon could've totally scored with Ashley at the end of Resident Evil 4, but shot her down, the stupid bastard.

Though, it's from Capcom, so it'll be released after your parents die, and your children are born, and fetching silver flecks your hair. The only thing that surprises me about this...that it's called "Resident Evil 5," and not "Street Fighter vs. S.T.A.R.S."

God, I can't believe how hard this game looks already. I'm having nightmares about somehow having to kill my way through those enormous crowds of creepy ****s, let alone when those tentacle-sprouting freaks start showing up. I was hoping I was done with those after RE4.

I can't imagine how this game is gonna go over -- white guy versus the negro hordes. But what's the problem with killing nothing but Spanish zombies in RE4, anyway? There are Spanish people in Spain, after all. As well as black people in Africa. And how is this different from the thousands of white people we've killed without remorse in these games?

Racism issues aside, I think we can all agree that RE5 is gonna rock...it'll have the most realistic hair-rendering of the whole series. Look at the luscious locks on that dude. All I ask for is being able to switch weapons on the fly, and I'm sold. Who am I kidding, I'm sold anyway.

No Sixaxis controls for the PS3 build, either. Because, apparently, they suck.

Kotaku has an early hand-on impressions article, and they do mention that the shantytown is just one of the places we visit. The newest trailer also has that creepy mine-looking level, and I can only hope we go somewhere awesome, maybe ride some cheetahs.

That's a stupid excuse. It was the third system the game was released on and like 3 years after the fact. Why would they expect high sales? Anyone but die hard RE fans who wanted to play it had already played it on GCN or PS2. That said, I played the Wii version of RE4 and it blew both other versions out of the water. Nevertheless I am excited for RE5 and can't wait for it to come out.

I definitely agree -- the Wii controls were heavenly, and the diminishing-sales point is a valid one. Still, I would throw down in a hot second for the rumored Xbox 360 port of Resident Evil 4, despite the fact that I've already bought it twice now.

What can I say? I'm a shameless RE4 whore.

Chris is back, but that can't be his sister with him can it? If so what's going to happen when they find Sherry?

The woman with the gun in the two trailers is a new character named "Sheva," who's from Africa (she speaks with an accent during the footage), but beyond that, we don't know much else about her at the moment, whether she'll eventually betray Chris, or not.

I have a weird feeling that she'll be both playable in co-op, and have her own scenario, similar to Jill and Ada. That is, if they don't feel like killing her halfway through the game.

Also, Resident Evil 5 spoilers for Sherry:

It's been confirmed that the girl seen floating in that liquid-filled chamber at the end of the first trailer is indeed Sherry, around age 22 -- something to do with testing the G-Virus, apparently.

I'm surprised, I thought it was one of the million sellers on the Wii.

Confirmed release-dates from E3:

Japan - March 12, 2009
North America/Europe - March 13, 2009

Looks like this is gonna be this coming spring's GTA IV. Damage Control 5: Chris Redfield and the Albino Africans is looking positively STUNNING.

New IGN videos demonstrating co-op involving the new "Sheva" character, which was first confirmed yesterday in that first hands-on E3 demo that premiered there.

Doesn't this game actually take place in Haiti, not Africa? If so, depending on the African country, it makes even less sense for them to add white zombies, seeing as how Haiti is 95% black according to the CIA World Factbook.

It's been confirmed as Africa by Capcom...also, in the trailer linked above, Sheva tells Chris, "Welcome to Africa."

The co-op gameplay looks off the hook. I have no doubt this game is going to own Resident Evil 4.

Ah, then that makes a little more sense, at least in (from doing research as to where to game takes place) Eritrea and Ethiopia, where the people are historically descended from both Semites and East Africans, so not everyone is going to be "black" per se.
