For now. I mean, I also like Zelda and a few others. In the next year it's getting a fair few decent looking horror games. If I could remember what they all were I'd be happier.

I would like to here wich does are, really. I don't have a wii (mine's a 360) but some friends do... all of them do, so if one of does games you say interests me I'll start my: subliminar-messeges-plan-exacution

I don't really regard the Wii as a "serious" console either. That's because a lot of the time, games aren't really released on the Wii. I like it for ports and playing GC games, RE4 Wii, but not much else.

getting back on topic...

I've never seen this trailer before (it contains several spoilers and hints at some deep story elements too) Did I just miss it or ???

off topic again

I'm sure they can do RE5 on the Wii...I mean look at all the people who thought RE4 couldn't make it graphically on the PS2

A little bit about Sea Shell
Spoiler:

show spoiler

In the Degeneration art book, the script of the movie is written out in both English and Japanese. In the end, Sea Shell is what is mentioned rather than TriCell...so unless this was just a misprint, TriCell = Sea Shell = S mentioned in Ada's report.

[Vogue_Dirge]

I think the chances are fairly good that Ada was working with Tricell and delivered the master Plagas sample to them. It's certainly suggested she shafts Wesker. Of course, it might be the problem. If Ada gave him a sample he couldn't control which he passed to TriCell and then they started screwing about, creating monsters and generally pissing all over creation, it might explain why there is an outbreak to begin with.

I highly doubt Ada is working for TriCell. After the events of RE2, I'm betting that Ada joined up with an organization that is against all that Umbrella stood for. Plus, Excella offers to work with Wesker (although we don't know if TriCell knows this or not, Excella is only the CEO of the African Branch.)

Or I can just be a Ada/Leon fan with thoughts of grandeur.

Amazing Find Rosetta.

Do you think that Ada could be mentioned in RE5. After all RE4 sure did shove her into the role of a major player in this war of attrition against biohazards. I'm not getting my hopes up though, it's someone else's turn!

Capcom Burbank Demo Play through. My friend attended it and told me a bunch of info about the level they played and told me about Irving Spoilers.

MAJOR SPOILERS

Involving the cutscene AFTER the boat level (demoed in Las Vegas), Irving, and the cutscene after the sea monster fight. Also where Chapter 4-1 begins.


Cutscene AFTER boat level:
Spoiler:

show spoiler

Josh is driving when a bigger boat comes out of nowhere. Josh yells "Oh Shit!" and attempts to steer the boat to avoid a T-bone collision. He succeeds but the side of their motor boat crashes into the side of the bigger boat. Majini are manning mounted gatling guns shooting at the motor boat and its passengers. During the intense gunfire, it cuts to Irving standing at the head of the ship with a weird look on his face. You then hear a female's voice, possibly Excella.... then the Capcom rep skipped the remainder of the cutscene. We now fight the sea monster. The beginning of the fight, Josh checks in via Chris' headset. Their conversation: Josh - "Chris, status report? What the hell is that?!". Chris - "Josh, just get of here. Its too dangerous". Josh - "Goodluck".

Irving:
Spoiler:

show spoiler

Dies in Chapter 3-3. He IS the sea monster. The screen shot that was up for debate on whether or not it was Irving, I can CONFIRM it is Irving. He appears to be the monster's tongue. Once the monster is killed, Irving breaks off and lands on the boat. A cutscene then plays were Chris asks him what his plans are. A few notes: We didn't see how he becomes the monster. The screenshot in the first post of this thread IS Irving in his monster merged form.

Story Cutscene: After boss fight with....:
Spoiler:

show spoiler

While lying on the boat dying, Irving tells Chris about "Unoboros" (spelling could be off), but doesn't reveal too much about the plans, just repeats his trailer lines ("BSAA while you two are just in time for the action..."). Out of frustration ("We're waisting time"), Chris draws his weapon. Sheva uses his name and Chris lowers his gun. Irving then says "Oh, you're Chris? I've heard so much about you" (something along those lines, I'm not 100% sure that's exactly what he said, but its close enough). Chris then asks "How do you know so much about me?!" Irving tells Chris "You will find your answers in the Caves". Irving dies shortly after, with Chris saying "Poor bastard".

Chapters (and Chapter 4-1):
Spoiler:

show spoiler

Aside from the Wesker clips, it seems that everything we've seen in the trailers happends in the first half of the game. The race across the desert in the humvees, the village/town fights, the sea monster fight, all happen within the first 3 chapters. Chapter 4-1 starts out with a cutscene of Josh taking Chris and Sheva to the Caves via motor boat. Not sure if there is dialogue. But the level is called "Chapter 4-1 - Caves".

Start Game Menu:
Spoiler:

show spoiler

Apparently the final build of the game was demoed in Burbank. When the Capcom rep pressed "Start Game" a list of options were available. The following were listed:

Continue
Chapter Select
Item Organization
Bonus Features (Possibly says "Bonus Content")
???????? (it actually showed ? marks)

In the Chapter Select menu, it shows thumbnails of all unlocked chapters. As you scroll through them, the chapter number (Chapter 1-1) appears as well as an unidentified icon with a number next to it (Could be treasure icon or BSAA Badge Icon).

When the user selects a chapter, another menu appears. This menu allows for System Link (although System Link was red-ed out), Co-op options and something else. The co-op option was set to "Rogue". Not exactly sure what that means.

Previously unseen gameplay move:
Spoiler:

show spoiler

The player can, at certain points, put their back up against the wall or duck behind a wall. While "stuck" on the wall, the user can draw up a weapon and fire at the enemy from around the corner. Similar to GoW but not as fluid. It seems to work correct, if used properly. Resident Evil is becoming more and more an action game. And apparently, the rep noted that to the guests.

I think there is some stuff (dialogue, options, etc) missing, but hey, this is all second hand info.

^ just a warning people

MAJOR EFFING SPOILERS!!!!!!!

[ChrisDVD]

Should I take them down?

[Archelon]

Should I take them down?

You used spoiler tags, so it should be fine.

[Vogue_Dirge]

Should I take them down?

What Archelon said. But I was just issuing another warning. The way you phrased it didn't do the spoilers justice. They are pretty big.

At the bottom of this article http://www.joystiq.com/2009/02/10/th...nt-evil-5-faq/ it has:

Spoiler:

It says that coded stuff, Jill Valentine is alive and also in the paragraph above it say's if you dont know the Re franchise you wont recognise Wesker and Jill so that confirms she is in the game. (Does a triple knee tuck backflip somersault) Yey!
