According to SolidSnakex on neogaf, the June issue of Game Informer has new screenshots of Resident Evil 5.

Resident Evil 5 (PS3, 360)
- The text is mostly just stuff Takeuchi talked about on the Famitsu DVD.
- A few new screens, one showing a chainsaw, an overhead shot of a female character that GI assumes is Claire, and a shot of Chris holding a blonde haired girl who they assume is Sherry.

I'm going to go on a hunt for any possible scans. If there haven't been any posted by the time I get my issue in the mail, I'll be sure to scan it myself.

Also, Zenith on neogaf said the newest issue of OPM has new screenshots of RE5 as well.

UPDATE:

It's OPM UK, not OPM (as in the American one). Also, the screens in both GI and OPM UK are apparently the same.

Actually, it's the Friday after next.

Kotaku changed the post several times, but the URL still says next Friday.

The URL says that just because it's the topic's original title. They can edit it a hundred times, even to say it was aired yesterday, and the URL would remain the same.

Not entirely sure this is newsworthy, but Edge has a nice retrospective on RE2:

I was merely clarifying to Archelon that Kotaku changed the date, but they had posted next Friday originally by pointing out the URL. Thank you for that tidbit though, I really didn't know that :p

EDIT: Woah, very nice retrospective on RE2 for sure. Hard to believe it's been over 10 years.

Out of curiousity, is EDGE magazine british or US based.

The main magazine is british based, but you can find EDGE magazine (british articles + own stuff) in other countries.

[The Dude]

Thought so, notice alot of british sarcasm and irony when I read their columns in the magazine from time to time, but never bother buying it in stores, just never been a fan of their biased commentary against anything which isn't 8bit.

Lol, retro supporters in 2008? Never thought I'd hear of the day.

[Stu]

Why? There'll always be huge support for retro games.

Quick reply to this message

2008 FY. Just As we predicted, endo of 2008 or soon in 2009

[Sunglasses]

I hope end of 2008! Christmas? Mhh...

EDIT
New Arcade game?

I remember a future BH arcade game where Tara Platt (Red Queen voice in UC) given her voice to Jill. Could be this new arcade game.

Why is the news so unexpected? I expected RE5 to be out this year.
