When we exclusively reported the Resident Evil 5 demo news last week, actual concrete information was thin on the ground. Since then we’ve learnt that the PS3 will be getting a demo, although the only confirmed territory for the Sony version is America at this time, with the full game still on course for March 13th over here.
For the hardcore Biohazard fans, Capcom has announced that the collector’s edition package will feature a 32 page colour art book, a 2GB USB drive and pouch and a special making-of video apparently made by Hollywood staff, which will be exclusive to the PS3.
The 360 will get a metal case with a Soundtrack CD instead of the making of movie.

Excellent. I might have to get that special edition. Never been bothered before but that actually sounds worth investigating.

thats all good, still get the demo off the PS store then… sweet.
any idea as to approxiamte date for the demo?

the last resi game i dabbled in was resi 2. resi 5 looks quite good, so i’ll certainly be trying the demo out. the Co-op mode looks great, but theres no1 on my friends list that ever has the same games as me!

“…announced that the collector’s editor package will feature…”
Presumably that should be “collector’s edition”?

Finally, a first game truly worth waiting for since Metal Gear Solid 4, and from the looks of it also the last for a long time…. #sigh#

can’t wait for resi5, might be first ever collector’s edition, have only ever played on resi4, but that game was awesome…..

Really enjoyed Resi4 (no really it was awesome), so definately looking forward to 5.

Shit, first quarter 2009 has some big games coming, Killzone2 and Resi 5. I’m going to be busy twidling the thumb sticks.
