    Pre-Order Resident Evil 5 - Collector's Edition on PS3A new interview from the Tokyo Game Show 2008 has the developers of Resident Evil 5 discussing some interesting things!

    In particular, they discuss the inevitable Resident Evil 6, Resident Evil 5 coming to the Wii, and their general thoughts on the Wii system, the newly announced split-screen co-op for Resident Evil 5 gameplay offline, and you even get to see a quick cut-scene glimpse of Albert Wesker!

    February 2009 update: Resident Evil 5 producer, Masachika Kawata, visited Capcom Europe’s office in London for interviews while it was snowing outside. Driving through the slushy streets of the UK capital seems to have had a profound effect on Mr. Kawata, because when The Guardian newspaper asked him if he had any locations in mind for Resident Evil 6, he replied: “Why not London?”

    Resident Evil 5 producer Jun Takeuchi told Official PlayStation Magazine “I think Resident Evil 5 doesn’t need to change the series, but Resident Evil 6 will have to reinvent the series with another full model change or else it won’t be able to keep on going.”

    Another Resident Evil 5 producer Masachika Kawata told The Gadget Show “We haven’t decided whether we’re going to make Resident Evil 6 yet. But if we do, it could take anywhere up to eight years [to make Resident Evil 6], but hopefully only four.”

      They really need to bring back the zombies, ever since they jumped over to Ganados, it lost a little bit of its fear factor in comparison to the older RE games. I say, bring back the flesh-eaters!

      yes you are right thirdwiseman RE4 and RE5 are good games but there nothing like the old ones.you did a great job remaking RE1 for the gamegube i dont see why you cant remake all the old RES for ps3 and xbox 360 and yes pls put the fear factor back into your games. one more thing RE4 and RE5 was to easy

      Yes I agree totally, it would be great to have the previous resident evil games revamped for the xbox 360. I enjoyed the puzzle solving that went with them plus the fear factor of opening a door and having a monster or zombie jump at you was great! I enjoyed resident evil 5 but it was done way to easy.

      I’m getting some good gameplay out of RE5 so I can wait a while for RE6…

      If we make a remake of the older Resident Evil games it wouldent be for the Xbox only Ps3 cuz the technology of the Ps2 was taken and made it better more room more and better graphics and some other stuff we put in etc..

      @a_dark_halo
      Nah 360 is 7th gen and ps3 is 7th gen, ps2 is 6th gen an has nothing to do wiv 360 + ps3. Plus RES Evil was ported to GCube from PS which was a different company behind the platform as 360/ps3 being diferent platforms.

      Moi j’ai adoré resident evil 5 , d’ailleur resident evil 6 sera encore mieux vu qu’a chaque sortie de resident evil le jeu est meilleur …
      Resident evil 6 sera peut-etre a Londre , pourquoi pas de toute maniere je n’avait aucune idée ou l’histoire pourrait se passer , par-contre j’aimerer revoir Claire Redfield dans resident evil 6 , parce que c’est un tres bon personnages , en plus elle est principale et on ne la voit pas souvent ou alors dans des remake ( d’oû DARKSIDE CHRONICLES ) voila , peut etre un trio meme , cela seré pas mal une aventure en ayant les 3 personnages principaux ( Chris , Claire et Jill ) moi sa ne me derangerer pas . Bon 4 à 8 ans , c’est quand même abusé , sa va etre long alors pour patienter je jouré au RE5 et les dernier sortie RE revelation et Mercenaries 3D , Voila c’est tout se que j’avais a dir , en esperent que se que j’ai di les studio CAPCOM en prenent compte , merci .
