Resident Evil 5 (Collector's Edition)
Game Description:Produced by series veteran Jun Takeuchi, this next-generation follow-up to the terrifying series introduces the theme of escape as its core survival instinct. As Chris Redfield (former S.T.A.R.S. member and now part of the BSAA unit), your life is in danger as you strive to complete your most dangerous mission yet in a sweltering desert colony where a new breed of evil has been unleashed. Swarms of marauding evil beings will charge at you when your pulse is racing at a heart-shattering pace. Environments will play a bigger factor than ever here, using the power of next-gen systems to create a world where terror might lurk in any alcove or shadow. Powerful lighting effects overwhelm the player with mirage movement and blinding brilliance, and even in the light of day, there is no safe haven in this Resident Evil. This Collector's Edition of Resident Evil 5 packs a number of bonus features for fans eagerly awaiting this fifth entry in the franchise.

  • Resident Evil 5 Producer Jun Takeuchi Not Involved With Resident Evil 6

    Capcom hasn't outright announced Resident Evil 6 (the lack of a teaser at E3 was interesting), but despite some noted controversy, Resident Evil 5 was a success for the company. A sequel is inevitable. Who will be in charge of the next Resident Evil, however, remains a mystery. 4Gamer reports it won't be Jun Takeuchi, producer of both Resident...

  • "Game Together Or Die Alone" -- Issues And Expectations With Capcom Co-Op

    It took all of five minutes to realize Lost Planet 2 wasn't for me. In that same time frame, I recognized Capcom's development team approached the sequel with a similar philosophy to Resident Evil 5, a game I spent hours trying to enjoy before ultimately giving up, realizing it was a game designed for someone else. By someone else, of course, I...

  • Nickling and Diming: Limited Edition Games of 2009

    If you ask me, it’s rare to find a collector’s edition that’s actually worth collecting and hanging onto. Most of the time, you’re better off getting pre-order swag than what you’re paying an extra ten to twenty bucks for. And again, if you ask me, exclusive pre-order DLC needs to go away, and fast. As the year...

    The moment a glowing triangle appeared in the corner of the screen in Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, prompting me to engage in a co-op move, a mild seizure overtook my synapses.
