  • forgot to mention that you dont get the dlc that is on the console version. there is no way to even buy that content for pc.

  • Just bought the Gold Edition of this for PS3, $25 FOR THE WIN!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is stupid, who see zombies riding the bikes and shooting from guns -.-

  • @mightymo987 They are not zombies. Play the game and you will find that out.

  • Comment removed

  • Taking out the few cons i don't care about, this game got a 10/10:) downloading now

  • @pokealong1227 lol *high end pc required* how is that a con for people who have a nice rig =P

  • Actulay you don't need High end PC. My old Laptop can merely handle Witcher 1 from 2007 but can run this game very smooth in all high setting

  • the gamplay takes a hit because of your computers specs, not the games fault

  • @drawbobby Agreed.

    He is a fag and stabbage is definitely in order.

  • if anyone want a risident evil 5 save game (infinite ammo, nd costumes) so contact me on my accout (sameer.haider05@gmail.com) (sam.haider143@gmail.com)

    reply

  • best damn version because of all the mods which are awesome.

  • I just installed RE5, but am having a strange problem. I plug in my headphones so I could play while Im on the train going to work and I noticed that I could still hear it through my laptop speakers, but when I close the game everythings back to normal. Its really weird, anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it

  • 6 dollars on steam

  • i hate adverts

  • 2:06 sorry. 

  • 2:08 Epic face.

  • hay para pc?

    

  • residen evil 5???  no residen evil 5 it is it komedy!!!!!! ,good game is residen evil 2!

  • @tomylee007 watch your grammar there, buddy.. -.-'

  • @MSNDBZ24

    Residente Evil 5 is a comedy and I do not know how much English:)

  • @tomylee007 Lol... you make me laugh with your grammar xD

  • Type in Susperia part 1 and you wil discover a fear that you will embrace till death.

  • He should have said the 3D mode will give you a NICE BONASS

  • I think it's safe to bet that you need an Intel Core i7 processor to play No Mercy mode in 1080p HD without lag

  • @banzaigtv2 Also a healthy video board with a good amount of memory wouldn't hurt either.

    Steam states: Graphics: Minimum Requirement - 256 MB VRAM, NVIDIA GeForce 6800 series or ATI Radeon HD 2400 Pro; Recommended - 512 MB or more VRAM, NVIDIA GeForce 9800 series or better, or ATI Radeon HD 4800 series or better.

  • @banzaigtv2 i5 2500k oc to 4.0 will do just fine...focus on the gpu

  • WTF 9.3, ok how much did capcom pay ign for this review?

  • while this game is fun i do tend to miss the older RE games yea they may be "clunky" in gameplay and somewhat outdated graphics wise but to me there still fun to play. wish capcom would release a RE collection for Xbox 360 so i can enjoy my classic RE again.

  • um dos melhores Residents de Todos os tempos

  • High end PC needed? My shitty laptop can run it.

  • @FreeButtSex Because Capcom, unlike most developers, actually knows how to optimize their games.

    All you have to do is look at the visuals. They're gorgeous. Better than any PC game on the market. Most of those other games, however, require a Quad Core or better, with a mid-ranged GeForce GTS series car or better (like a 250 or 300 series).

  • no mercy mode looks like a blast to play

  • add me pc online thayerlikevanty

    im always up for a game or helping new comers to the game :)

  • @Thayerman12 YO! lets game!! will u be online in mid october?? coz i'll be gettin my m17x by then!!

  • I think the graphics are way better on the pc then the ps3 and 360 versions =P probably cause I have it but I havve to say this and only this..... re4 was better I still play through that on my wii/gamecube every chance I get idk re5 was a hell of a lot harder in the beginning though when I first played it xD

  • You need a NASA PC to run this game!

  • @RG7621 System requirements don't seem to demand much.

  • @FreeButtSex I think they're pretty high. But keep in mind its always the minimum requirements that are printed on the box and they're just to run the game. Usually the recommended specs are what you need at the least to run the game at a smooth rate.

  • @RG7621 Well, 256 mb for a video card and everything else also is pretty average for a modern game.

  • jajaja un detalle que les falto arreglar

  • its amazing game super action game i played the all series and i cant wait till that one :D:D \m/ u have to try it guys

  • This game is a fucking disgrace to the series, only good part was the Dlc lost in nightmares

  • @StyrbjornStarke I think its a good game, but I loved RE4 so much that RE5 was a big letdown. Mostly because it wasn't scary having a partner the whole time and the inventory system sucked

  • @ChicagoBulls1984 This game is an allout hollywood action game, it completely rapes everything Res stands for, part 4 was a perfect balance of horror and action. With 5 Capcom just went too over the top in their pursuit of trying to make something new

    I sincerely hope that res 6 is going back to its survival horror roots

  • at least i have friends on PS3 to play online :D

  • alguien tiene algun link para descargarlo??? por que donde lo descargue yo no servia

  • Jeff Haynes is such a good reviewer.

  • how are you supposed to do split screen co-op?

  • ojala que para la parte 6 vuelvan los zombies u_u

  • Vejam Aqui Como Ficar com munição Infinita n º 2 Resident Evil

  • esta chido el video y el game

  • esta chido el video y el game

  • good that game is better than resident evil 4 in a pc version

  • the reason i could not be arsed to finish this game on xbox - sheeva. i am thinking of getting this for pc instead. alt of people still online for this?

  • @MrShadowhearth

    I have it on the ps3,there are quit a lot,but on the pc it easily takes you 10 minutes to find a single person....

  • @MrShadowhearth hopefully, because I want it on my PC.

    :)

  • @MrShadowhearth yeah lol

  • @MrShadowhearth , You play the live version? , PLEASE , Can you give me the Serial for the game to play LIVE? :3

  • @MrShadowhearth yeap

  • @MrShadowhearth Let's be fair now. Chris' AI is just as stupid if you're playing as Sheva.

  • @MrShadowhearth I just bought this game on STEAM, great game but I won't bother to play online, just single-play

  • omg! 75.000 video :O:O:O

  • Amazing game but they need to make a new RE with the classic views and feels 

  • @Ograws They won't, because RE5 is the best selling RE game, so they will keep the same style

  • @lordzilu1584 *facepalm* RIP Good RE games

  • No tiene el mismo sentimiento de estar en Raccon City en las oscuros callejones, es una nueva mirada, pero era lo que mas me gusta de RE junto con su aparente lógica que hace que uno sienta la presión de la situación,al jugar este, nunca sentí ese viejo sentimiento, lo vi mas como otro juego de atar bichos donde hay municiones en jarrones y esas tribus africanas...Pero es bueno.

  • the only way to kill wesker is destroy the umbrella

  • why the fuck chris and sheva look like this in the review O_O?

  • Wow these advertisements before the video are just so frickin' annoying!!!!!!!!!!

  • Homos!!!!

  • *The narrator speak* ... boring...-_-...

  • on special on steam guys!! quick 13hrs left

  • 15 euro's on Steam atm.

  • PC Gaming blows

  • @iTrollSoDamnHard no, cuz games are better on the the PC can run at betetr frame rate and higher graphics and the shooting games the mouse is easier to handle

  • @2legit2quit67 and you can also install mods and shit like that :)

  • this guy sounds like irategamer

  • @Rocky1001001 It's something about Sheva's alternate outfit and her running in heels.

  • @UnitedKingdomify Think hes asking how come Sheva can run in heels. 

  • - High End PC Needed

    In what reality is that a negative? Pfft!

  • como puede correr sheva con tacones ????

  • @pachobox123 ese es el entranamiento que recibe en la B.S.A.A :D xD

  • @pachobox123 jajasee

  • @pachobox123 hey u....will u take d PROBLEM 2 speak in english!!

  • Comment removed

  • High end pc needed.... *facepalm*

    Who the fuck hires these morons ?

  • @DoomMaster307 lol I should read comments before I comment. Ditto what you said. {=D

  • @UnitedKingdomify No prob mate, we all make mistakes. Especially these morons at ign.

  • Sure, the horror part didn't work out, at all (except for being afraid that you might die from shooting like a retard). The game's mechanic is good IMO, It's still like the old ones. I can't get why some people would like it to be quick paced, ammo wasting games like left 4 dead then go play it already.

  • I guess the Resident Evil franchise is going more into a 3rd Person Action Zombie Killing Game rather than the pure Survival Horror one. It's far from being a bad game but for some of you, think of it as a game of it's own. I do agree tho that they REALLY put down the scaryness in this one (exept for some parts here and there)

  • zombies with guns, crossbows, spades ? wtf we want the old brainless zombies this is really gay

  • From 0:00 till 2:34 didn't even see ONE Zombie, i thought this was a Zombie game

  • @llllXGanondorfXllll There is no zombies in resident evil series only humans infected with a Virus

  • the game is ok. i prefer resident evil 4 with a survival horror vibe rather than an action vibe.

  • Hey people! this is a nice game , right? Well sethis watch?v=qm5GLKHmEGk&feature=re­lated Is a trick for money, and is legal! In just 2 minutes you can have 1.000.000!!! AMAZING THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE

  • i LOVED this game =D

    awesome survival/action game

  • @ChrisRedfield771 This page' comment list is just ridiculous all because you drag things on you boring inbred idiot, this WILL be the last reply to you and before I thought I could get you to understand how dumb you were being but never mind dick head, go and play your shitty resident evil 5.

  • @ChrisRedfield771 I'm not going anywhere, and I love reading alot of 'decent' comments... just not comments like yours =D

    Your just a bore, you don't understand, ridiculous.

  • Gah! I was so dissapointed. The controls are some crazy shit and the combats not great good graphics though. Please no hate comments, it's my opinion.

  • @ChrisRedfield771 No,. that's not what retarded means at all.

    You must be so miserable and dumb, you say you want to 'move onto the future' then why do you 'dwell' on the past and present and argue all the time? now 'GTFO!' you waster =D

  • @ChrisRedfield771 I really doubt you know the meaning of that word, your a dick that likes to 'drag things out' nothing new =/

  • @ChrisRedfield771 rubbish comment, again, nothing to read.

  • @ChrisRedfield771 Your comment doesn't make sense, just another person trying to argue, it's MY OPINION.

  • @ChrisRedfield771 yeah I played it in co-op to help the friend get his trophy(he collects them sadly for him). And proffesional is just a difficulty level buti t's still on a crappy game.

  • it will be awsome for the wii

  • And then you notice that the only people really complaining about series changing are those afraid of change, not the ones who loved the series.

    If you really loved a series, you'd play it no matter what they did to the gameplay, or whether or not the overall style has changed. We all have our own opinions though, but don't think other people are oblidged to hate the change because you do.

    RE4-5, and FFXIII are amazing games.

  • @Kyjudo finally someone that agrees besides if they kept using the same old ways as its old games it would start to get stale.

  • @Kyjudo I know what you mean man.

    Resident Evil 4 was my all-time favourite PS2 game. I probably finished it atleast 30 times (nerd, yeah).

    RE5 gave me and my Brother alot of hours aswell, we got SS rankings on every level, every difficulty. Yes, even on Professional... Fucking bullshit it was.

    Final Fantasy XIII though suffers alot from being linear and its intended flaws.

    nevertheless, it's one of my favourite PS3 games.

  • I've never played on the pc, so how does it work? How do you play co-op?

  • If i would be the game creator of this game i would prefer this.1.you are able to shoot while walking still with remarkable accuracy(remarkable accuracy because with that muscle he cant shoot very well?2.melee system-chris redfield had a huge bulky muscle and he cant perform melee when there is no command prompt like (press F to uppercut).3.make some real survival horror (like dead space 2)so it will be appealing to men like us(i prefer zombies).4.make the place darker so it will be scary.

  • Resident evil 5 seems to just have taken most of resident evil 4 game elements (and deleting some) with new characters except that now it's set in South Africa and the awesome character that was wesker dies in a weird lava level.

    Its just ridiculous. :/

    (elements of resident evil 4 : beginning is a village, end is in a lobartory, guys who have electric matraque, some bosses are the same I think, etc etc)

  • It's a good game if you enjoy shooting "zombies", and have a fun arcade mode ( Merenary mode ).

    However, i don't think it should be in the resident evil series as it does not really fit with the rest of the series.

  • al ruben le gusta el pene

    

  • oye , yo lo he pasado el juego entero enberdad es un juegaso es el mejor re que he probado (mejor que re4) bueno mi opinion

  • can i play this with a 759mb graphics card memory i dont have that radeon graphics card mentioned in the system requirement but its memory is like 512mb does it matter?

  • @PriviaKeys i have 200+ mb graphic card

    able to run it low setting and some mid

    

  • A quick stupid question here, because I didn't see it specifically mentioned: if you get the PC version, do you need a controller/pad, or can you just use regular old mouse/keyboard?

    If it matters, I have an up-to-date Vista that's not much older than the game itself.

  • People are contradicting themselves way to much. Ok so 1st off, people bitch that the game is not scary like past resident Evil games. Ok sure, its not as scary, ill give them that, BUT over all, its still an awesome game. 2nd People bitch because you cannot move while aiming. :O ???????? Notice anything strange yet? Ok so basically ppl bitch because its not scary like past RE games but also bitch because they can't move & aim which RE game never have done. Head outa Ass ppl!!! Re5 = Perfect

  • @Halobolu

    Yes, but unfortunately, the nostalgia bug bites a lot of people, to the point that anything new/deviating from the original = automatically bad.

  • is this a shoot em up without the ability to strafe?

  • survival? NO

    horror? NO

    Resident Evil? probably no...

  • you cant say this game is shit i mean, its a very fun game, but you cant compare it to the other resident evil games, still a great game

  • I really don't know why people hate on this game. Resident Evil hasn't been scary for ages, so there is no reason to bitch about that. This game plays just like RE4, which everyone loves, but people say the game plays like shit. Where's the logic in that? Plus, RE4 would get boring at times, but this is all-out action. Why all the hate? Please enlighten me as to why this game sucks.

  • yeah ign is great

  • patetico en lo k se combirtio resident evil, el 2 y el 3 fueron los mejores, el resto solo fue para alargarlo, no da miedo, no ahy acertijos, no ahy historia atrayente o k sea razonable, simplemente ocupa espacio y tiempo innecesario, es como juego de arcade de feria pero con mas grafica.

  • the only rating categories for the game are the graphics ?!!

    "+ 3D support + sharper visuals - High end PC needed - Limited Extras"

    WTF !

  • Can everyone PLEASE STOP linking the reviewer's opinion to THE WHOLE OF IGN? its just one guy.

  • 84 people don't have the gear to play RE5

  • This game have better graphic then many games in 2010 and 2011 \m/ But overral RE 4 is better...

  • 0:45 "nothing unusual here"

    no, unless you count the mad max goon riding a hovercraft in the middle of an African swamp with an office secretary out to destroy biological weapons and prevent complete....global...SATURATIO­N!!

  • oooh, miniskirt sheva :D

  • WATCH:`.FREE;'`MOVIES.,'ONLINE­!`'`

    WWW.WATCHFREEMOVIES4.TK

    

  • i got is on pc version, its very nice!

  • 4 was a disapointment. I remember seeing the original trailer for it. It was awsome. It was more like the Resident Evil Remake. Leon wore the same cloths as the released version of 4 but had the Mark 21 he finds in Resident Evil 2. It was more like classic Resident Evil and the graphics were actually better than what was released. So Resident Evil 5 is an option, but I'm not in a hurry to play it.

  • These Graphics are insane

  • OS: Windows XP Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.0 GHz / AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Memory: 1 Gb Hard Drive: 8 Gb free Video Memory: 256 Mb Video Card: nVidia GeForce 6800 / ATI Radeon HD 2400 Pro Sound Card: DirectX Compatible DirectX: 9.0c Keyboard Mouse DVD Rom Drive thats what u need
  • This game is great, but even I can walk and shot together

  • whats the problem with the enemys in this game what comes out of them

  • perfect

  • Why give it such a high score? and why mention 'survival horror' in the description? IGN haven't got any idea what they're talking about when it comes to resident evil obviously.

    The older resident evil games are survival horror, this game felt so crap.

    For example no moving as you shoot, some say it would make it easier but it wouldn't because you still have little ammo unlike other 3rd person shooters.

    And at the end(spoiler alert) they kill Wesker off in such a rubbish over the top way =/

  • @Johny40Se7en you right but it was fun though . . . i prefer real zombies like the 1 2 and 3

  • @Johny40Se7en it should have been called biohazard: shoot, shoot, shoot, reload and shoot some more.

    the RE wasnt realised in this game but the mercenaries was a ton of fun as an extra though i prefer the old mercenaries which should also be included as extra.

    the main thing that let me down was the script in this game. it just wasnt believable and realistic, always packed with the one liners.

  • @Johny40Se7en + worst part theres do dlc for the pc verison making it even more rubbish

  • @Johny40Se7en this game is a masterpiece on its own, their are tons of thing to unlock and high replayability and its creative not to mention a lot of effort, im just sick of people looking at this game for what it could be and not what it is, and yes i have played the first 3 resident evils.

  • @SuperMvC3 that's your opinion, I gave mine. Have you even played the old classic ones? I have to be honest the camera angles are quite annoying and 'put some people off' but beside that they're just incredible for the creepy atmosphere and music full of suspense and jumpy parts etc.

  • @Johny40Se7en i dont mean to offend your opinion, it is well polished and has solid gameplay, but its not scary, so its fails.

  • @Johny40Se7en CHRRRIIISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

    Yeah this game is just Resident Evil 4 with Co-op, except Resident Evil 4 was amazing but this is just bland.

  • @Johny40Se7en I've been a fan of RE since 97. I can put your comment to shame when I say RE5 was amazing. No moving and shooting, really? that's your bullshit complaint? I would have hated re5 if you could move and shoot. How dare you cry over this when you know for a fact none of the RE's were move and shoot. Want me to call a waaaah-mbulance for you? rotfl

  • @Fade2Dark it's MY OPINION, your comment is so full of crap just to try and argue.

    Yes, every Resident Evil has 'no moving and shooting' but I think it would be a step forward changing this.

    And you must not be a real fan of Resident Evil at all if you thought the 5th was 'amazing'. Your opinion, but flippin heck you must have only liked the the puzzles of RE games and not the characters or the creepy atmosphere/music.

    Have you forgot what they did to Wesker? one of the coolest characters.

  • @Johny40Se7en The only comment full of crap is yours my friend.

    First of all, you never said you wanted a new style of combat in your original comment, second, Wesker died in the best way possible, shot by a rocket launcher, just like in EVERY OTHER GAME. He may not be dead anyways.

  • @TehLazaMan I'm not your friend and I had to 'squeeze my comment' because of YouTube's crappy 500 character limit =/

    Having 'moving and shooting' would change the combat already and Wesker dying is a disgrace, shot by a rocket while sitting in magma trying to pull down a helicopter? you must have as much(or lack of) just like the other person who replied above.

    And yes he's dead, capcom's crappy new lead guy made sure of that, enough of these rubbish replies trying to argue, very boring.

  • wesker will never die

  • @2012randomman Resident evil sequels never dies lol

  • @Johny40Se7en

    thanks for the spoiler (sarcasm)

  • @Johny40Se7en It's happening to all the old big franchises, FF, GTA, Fallout series(#3).Hopefully It dosen't happen to the coming Deus Ex 3(Human Revolution). Every series is being strayed from It's original origins in favor of a more cinimatic simpler, action heavy-light story"sell ppl how realistic It looks first" type of deal. It Sucks. Also what defines a genre type is being changed. This is billed as an action game lol. Rpgs= now basic social networks with dress up avatars (WoW). 2011=hurts

  • @Johny40Se7en I've never played the original Resident Evil, but I was a huge fan of 4... Resident Evil 5 suffers alot from American cliches.

    Chris is a dull, boring, stereotyped character and Sheva (I forgot her name) is merely in there for the Co-Op.

    But, I wouldn't say it's bad. Me and my Brother completed it 100% and got almost 100 hours of gameplay in.

  • @mujuma I just gave my opinion, not everyone agrees with it and I'm glad otherwise the World would be a more boring place(I do hate arguing though, especialy when it 'drags on') I have a friend who likes the 5th game but he still doesn't like how different it it(in a bad way) to the originals.

    This is the friend I completed it with in co-op, it was ok the first time =/

  • @Johny40Se7en Yes. Everyones entitled to an opinion, though alot of the time it's better off not said.

    When people begin to force their own onto anothers, thats when it becomes a problem.

    I dont think I could replay Resident Evil 5 anytime soon.

    The controls feel so weird and I've already finished it a ton of times... So I doubt I'd get back into it.

    I'm to busy no-lifing Oblivion (almost 100 hours in, about 2/4 done? idk...), waiting for Skyrim and Final Fantasy Versus to come out.

  • @mujuma Yeah fair enough and nicely... put.

    What do you mean 'no-lifeing' Oblivion? Anyone who plays Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion will fall in love with it even if you don't like Open World RPG/Adventure =)

    It's such a brilliant game and I can't wait for Skyrim, and only 100 hours in hey? I have about 250 hours... with one character back when I played that alot haha, I love Elder Scrolls, anyways a bit off topic on a Resident Evil vid don't you think? =P

  • @Johny40Se7en Well, ignoring my College Sociology, Psychology and History work so I can play Oblivion is rather no-lifing to me lol.

    I know, it's so brilliant, yet flawed with many glitches, wanky animations and voice-work ):

    Skyrims my most wanted game for 2011, my social lifes going down the shiter.

    Meh, it was a shity review anyways lol.

  • @mujuma Ah haha ok, every game has flaws, but it's games like Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion that has SO many good things that you don't really care/think of the bad stuff.

    And just because a game is incredible doesn't mean you don't have to lose control of time, health, fitness etc =P

    Have long goes from time to time, might take you half your life to complete a game like Elder Scrolls but at least it'll last haha =)

  • @Johny40Se7en

    I agree that this game is not as good as everyone is saying, and that RE4 was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay way way way better.

    But still, it's not that bad. There is no moving while you shoot because the game focuses on crowd control, that menas you need to shoot the one that is a bigger thread to you and keep everyone away, it also enlarges the panic feeling so you are more tense.

  • @Johny40Se7en

    And the whole game is a tribute to B horror movies. Of course they will do everything over the top XD

  • @Vigilante931 B horror + classic Japanese type of game,not really serious but always fun

  • @aleksandarWH7

    It's a shame that most people don't get the B horror story and japanese humor. I love it :D

  • @Johny40Se7en Guess what ?...we dont care.
