RPD Dispatch 8 - RE5 Demo

[CubanOlive07]

is there one on the U.S.A. market place? or do you mean the game

I downloaded it off the JAPANESE marketplace but the demo is all english and is even boots up with the Resident Evil 5 title screen. (haven't checked the US marketplace though.

Help needed, guys!
It's asking me to update my live ID list and i need to confirm what 'prefecture' i'm located in, i know i have to put Tokyo-to but the list is in Kanji! Anyone know the Kanji for Tokyo prefecture?

[Gideon Quinn]

False alarm, it accepts any old bullshit.
Downloading now.

thanks though man

God that was intense... Oh, I'm dead... but damn, so much more intense than RE4.

[CubanOlive07]

hey guys i just found out something cool
xbox 360 version
-after you open your inventory press rb to see sheva's inventory
-you can arrange you items using the x button
-the items placed in the top, left, right, and bottom squares correspond with your analog pad as hotkeys (like gears of war)
-you can do this wierd taunting gesture by pressing the right and left sticks in at the same time

[Gideon Quinn]

Shouting out to confirm that it works here in the UK.

Today is good day!

[Beef_jerky_yo]

clicking in the right stick and a direction gives you run

Damn I've got to wait a few hours before I can go home from work and start the download

[Beef_jerky_yo]

It's so much fun. It's bigger, better, scarier and everything better than RE4. I love the MP5.

It seems a little too close up, like I'm zoomed in to much, but that's good for my tiny 17in tv. I can't wait to play the real thing. The item system really works to keep you stuck in the panic mode until you make it to a safe place. It's frustrating, but it adds to the game.

Now I just have to get use to the new button layout. First resident evil on the xbox.

I really, really wish there was an option to swap the X and A buttons. They're screwing me up hardcore. I'm hoping it'll be switched for the NA release, since Japanese control configurations always seem to be the opposite of ours.

[CubanOlive07]

yeah i am still trying to find which controller layout i like

played with gideon for a while but my xbox froze up

[CubanOlive07]

wtf i just got the red ring of death...let me see if i can get this piece of crap working again

edit: revived it with the good ole towel trick, might have to send it in if it happens again though

[Dot50Cal]

Shit, Still at work. Ughhhhhh Another hour..

Works fine in my european machine.

I love the demo but I have one complain, when playing with VGA the V-Sync is off, at least in my TV, sometimes is annoying.


From what I can tell, you can't invite a friend to play a coop game and you can't skip the cutscenes in online coop (in offline you can), I played only one game in online, maybe I'm wrong.

After I download it with my Japanese account, can I play it with my normal UK gamertag?

That is the worst feeling ever, especially on such a joyous occasion like today. I got 2 red lights last summer, Cost me $100 to get it fixed.

I keep getting knife and find partner mixed up.

I imagine you would be able to. I can play it on my normal US gamertag.

yes, that's what I'm doing

[Gideon Quinn]

You can skip the cutscenes, both players need to press back button.
