A few of the more common queries that Resident Evil News dot com receives regarding Resident Evil 5, the highly anticipated survival horror game for the Xbox 360 and PS3, is: “When will Resident Evil 5 be released?”, “When is Resident Evil 5 going to be hitting the stores” or pretty much anything that surrounds the whole Resident Evil 5 release date subject.
Well, it just so happens that I have the official Resident Evil 5 release date right at hand; The official release date for Resident Evil 5 is currently October 1st, 2008. And while it may seem like a long way away before we reach October, just remember that there is going to be plenty of other Resident Evil goodies being released in the meantime to help keep us avid Resident Evil fans busy.
There’s obviously Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles for the Nintendo Wii owners among us. There’s the recently released Resident Evil: Essentials for the PS2 which includes some classic RE games such as: Resident Evil Code: Veronica X, Resident Evil Outbreak and Resident Evil 4. There’s also Resident Evil 4 for the Nintendo Wii. Not to mention the fact that Resident Evil: Extinction, the third Resident Evil movie, is due for release on February 8th, 2008 – which is only just over a month away. Be sure to pre-order yourself a copy before they’re all sold out.
Update: Capcom has revealed that RE5′s release has been pushed back and the new Resident Evil 5 release date will apparently be Friday, March 13th 2009.
my fellow gamers, we are gonna hear all this sh*t about this release and that release date. People are just trying to get us hyped up. I think we have to do more diggin into this whole release date. I am amped to play ths game, but when that faggot Danny said this nonsense, I think I am going to believe something concrete when new info is released. Until then, I think that we should rather wait, brothers.
lool, they sey its coming out sometime in october 2008.
That doesnt mean we cant stop talking about it.
I agree with you, but how long will it take before we get bored of talking because anticipation got us hyped up to play it. I agree with you, but don’t you think talking will eventually turn into nothing until we have no more interest for RE5? I’m just asking, dude. I am amped to play the game too, believe me. Only RE5 will cure this arthritis in my fingers. It is like a drug and I need it….
that is what they are say, dude – october 2008, but then other things are said about other dates. The best thing we can do is wait and see if these release dates are concrete.
Well im here again sorry for the wait. Anywho yea most likely for the millonth time R.E.5 will come during the holidays or mid october but that dosent mean SHIT! You know like all games that it will be most likely be set back do to bugs like in all games. So i think then most likely it will be set to be relased in early 09. So if anyone is hyped for this game Dont be it will only make it worst when it will be set back. And who ever is saying about the movie needs to get out of here. We dont give a shit about the degeration movie thingy!!! Grim sorry i have a myspace but that is it. Give me a holla back bro
guys can someone tell me if me if there’s any hope that re5 will come out on psp or wii? theyre the only consoles i have from this generation. btw grim y do u always talk like a gangster? ive never heard of a gamer talk like a gangster its wierd
Dude, I have no idea that the way I speak is actually getting to you. I am not a gangster and I don’t hang out with any. There is a lot of things about me that will actually surprise you. I am not going to apologize for the way I speak, but let me say this: I am probably the most laid-back person in my family and in my circle, dude. I don’t let shit faze me and people get to me. If you have not heard of gamers speaking weirdly before, then maybe you have not been around the block yet. Gaming is not a culture, dude, and it is surely not a way of life. It is an experience and having the world at your fingertips. I don’t think I “talk like a gangster”; I just think it’s me being me. Get to know me, dude, and you’ll see that I am not what you think I am.
And to answer your question about RE5 coming to PSP. No, dude, that will be impossible for such a small device to handle such a huge game, if you consider everything that is going into it for eg 60 fps and the overall graphics and sound. if the PS2 can’t handle it, the PSP defintely will not be able to.
Sebastian, are you talking about the IM? If so, I downloaded the IM setup file and when I run the installer, it gives me some crap about there is no internet connection and aborts the procedure. I’ll keep checking it out and give you a shout, bro. I agree: these dudes, talking about the damn degeneration movie must find a thread created for the movie somewhere because if there is not going to be any talk about RE5 on this thread, then they are only looking for a reason to get their little opinions out. LOL! I will give you a shout, bro, as soon as I get this working. Maybe I should sign up on MySpace and see from there.
I suppose your right about getting baord of talking and the drug thing. RE5 has been taking over my brain.
Hey guys I was just on yootube and they have another interview with the producer with of RE5. Jun something, but he said some things. He said green herbs were comming back. But I think we all knew that. There some amazing creatures which sonds awsome. He said the game had a definate release for march 31. Now I trust him more than rumars but I still have a little dought about.
That is a bit insane, don’t you think, dude? Who in this world thinks that there are people on this planet that can actually wait that long? But, whatever, March 2009 is what, 9 months away? Oh well…
the reason they are postponing reseident evil 5 is because some people think it is racist for chris to be shootin black ppl but i mean there is one white guy surrounded by like 4000 black zombie like creatures whose heads explode and try to eat his face off and as a black man myself i would shoot the shit outta them muthafuckas early i just want to see if chris is as good of a marksman as they say he is in the game cuz for real i want to see him in one of the cut scenes shoot someone in the elbow and that person accidently cuts their own head off wit an ax or suttin cuz that would be insane skills feel me
Yeah, dude, there was a debate about the game being racist, but I think that many people are over that. With a game set in Africa, in a township, what do people expect? If you walk into a township in Africa you are going to see black people. With the game set around that, people just have to learn to understand it. One of the main reasons why the game is not released yet is because they are still trying to fix bugs. It would be cool to see Chris shooting a dude in the shoulder and watching him cut off his own foot, and no matter how much reaslism it would add to the game, they will only have room for so much. that skill will probably be repeated 50 times throughout the game to axe and chainsaw zombies instead of having unique self inflicting wounds each time you shoot an enemy anywhere else on the body instead of in the head. It will become tedious after a while seeing the same thing happen to different zombies or only to those with axes or chainsaws. My opinion, dude, is that it will be more original if they just keep the old RE4 skill: shoot a dude with a chainsaw and watch him reel to the ground and moments later standing up for another go at you. What you are saying will be cool, but with the game already complete, if you don’t find an enemy chopping off his own leg after getting shot in the shoulder, but rather reeling back to the ground, let’s enjoy it.
guys is it for sure that the game is coming out on Oct 1st? im so freaking impatient to play it already
Don’t get your hopes up, dude. Keep your fingers crossed, otherwise wait til the end of March 09. I’m pissed off too.
R.E.5 would be much cooler if it had regular zombies in it!!!!!
I am upset about these release dates.
I think they are just keeping us talking about it to get the hype. I mean if its anything like RE4 then its gonna be exceptional!! I need this game in my life..
RE5 is gonna rock. I’ve only been able to play RE4 and code Veronica and outbreak. I can tell from the videos on youtube this game is gonna be sweet. Hopefully there’ll be some hard caore creature slayin and slashin. I hope they decide to make for Ps2 because thats all I have for now until I can get a Ps3 or XBox. If they dont that’ll suck. WHENEVER I PLAY IT THOUGH IM GONNA KILL IT!!!!!!!!
I hpoe the gameplay is like RE4 but if it isnt I’ll play it for a minute or 2 and figure it out. I hope Im good at it cuz I’ll probably end up gettin’ it.
I wonder why our words get cut off by the side.
Yeah i dont mind if the gameplay is improved or different coz we will soon adjust to it! I have downloaded both trailers on ps3. I wounder if we will be as scared in the daylight this time?? Now desperatly waiting for the real thing!
I thaught the same thing with RE4. I missed the zombies. But there goin back to zombies in there new CG movie and then right back to bug people in 5. I dont know if they can make up there mind.
RE5 looks like it is going to be AMAZING! but i was thinking, after looking at the trailor you are completely surrounded by zombies. will there be space to move around? or are you just going to keep dying quick. In RE4 all the zombies usually came in front of you down a path way if i remember correctly.
oh well. should be fun
comes out in oct 08 ?
