Description

The biohazard threat has not ended: Just when it seemed that the menace of Resident Evil had been destroyed, along comes a new terror to send shivers down player’s spines. Chris Redfield, returning Resident Evil hero, has followed the path of the evil literally around the globe. After joining a new organization, Chris heads to Africa where the latest bioterrorism threat is literally transforming the people and animals of the city into mindless, maddened creatures. Chris must take on the challenge of discovering the truth behind this evil plot. In Resident Evil 5, Capcom will teach players to fear the daylight as much as they have feared shadow in previous games.

Co-producer and series veterans Jun Takeuchi (Lost Planet) and Masachicka Kawata (Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition, Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles) unleashes an unprecedented level of fear for the next generation in Resident Evil 5, the sequel to one of the highest-rated videogames in history, according to Metacritic.com and Gamerankings.com. Promising to revolutionize the series by delivering an unbelievable level of detail, realism and control, Resident Evil 5 is certain to bring new fans to the series. New technology developed specifically for the game, as well as incredible changes to both the gameplay and world of Resident Evil will make this a must-have game for gamers across the globe.

Features:
  • Chris Redfield, protagonist of the original Resident Evil and Resident Evil: Code Veronica, returns
  • New environments and a diverse assortment of locations
  • New enemies bring new challenges: speed and intelligence make adversaries as dangerous singly as they are in groups.
  • An arsenal of weapons at the players command to keep the evil at bay, including knives, pistols, machine guns, sniper rifles and more.
  • Lighting effects provide a new level of suspense in both harsh light and deepest shadow
  • True high definition gaming on multiple game platforms, using an advanced version of Capcom’s proprietary game engine, MT Framework, which powered the next-gen, million-plus hit titles Devil May Cry 4, Lost Planet and Dead Rising.

Review by Jerry on 29th November, 2011
4 stars "NICE"
Horror games always interest me, they are the most exciting genre to play. though I always get freaked out.
RE5 luckily, isnt that scary. phew... I played this on ps3 a long time ago and liked it alot, so I thought I give the PC version a go.
Those that dislike the non-moving shooting, should realize the enemies dont all atk you at once anyway. so there is plenty of time. And we all should be happy that the control on keyboard is so much easier than controller.

apart from the control, there isn't really anything else bad about this game, there are still parts that are freaky. And many parts that kickass. I guess because its two characters, which makes the game less scary.

Review by Carl on 7th February, 2010
5 stars "Great Game"
Excellent game, looks fantastic on the PC especially in Direct X 10 mode. Stayed up all night playing this game in co-op mode with a buddy!

Mouse and Keyboard plays great which I was worried about because RE4 was so badly ported it was unplayable in my opinion unless you had a game pad. Anyway to sum up RE5 is a brilliant game, get it!

4 stars "Great Game!"
Really good game, plenty of re-play value, and more zombie killing weapons than you can shake a stick at.
