Resident Evil 5 Launch Party!

To celebrate the release of Resident Evil 5 on Friday, March 13th, Capcom and our friends at GameStop are throwing a launch party! On the eve of the launch, Thursday the 12th, meet us at Union Square in San Francisco to usher in Resident Evil 5. The event kicks off at 8pm and ends at midnight when you will be able to pick up your game- in-between we’ll have plenty going on to keep you busy. For starters, there will be a whole tent dedicated to the game where tons of kiosks will be set up and players will get a chance to get their hands on the game before grabbing it at midnight. You’ll also have the chance to win prizes and giveaways, meet the development team including co-producers, Takeuchi-san and Kawata-san and hang out with the motion capture/voice actors that played Chris, Sheva and Josh. To top it all off there will be new game announcements, stage shows, and Resident Evil activities all through out the night.

In order to guarantee you get the game at midnight, please stop by the Powell Street GameStop before the party to get your game transaction processed. You will need to get your proof of purchase wrist band and receipt for the GameStop store in order to pick-up your game at the party.

Also make sure to get there early as there will be limited space and we want to make sure you all get to enjoy the party!

Just to re-cap the details: be at Union Square in San Francisco by 8:00pm. I highly recommend getting there EARLY. We’ll party until midnight, then you can get your copy of the game with proof of purchase at the Powell St. GameStop. See you there!

RE2-Remake for Wii.

Or yeah, Code Veronica I guess.

Umbrella Chronicles 2.

Capcom reps saying (at separate times) that people wanting RE2 related goodness and CV related goodness will be happy soon, pretty much confirms it.

It will actually be shocking if it is anything else. Don't get too excited (unless you liked UC, in which case, go nuts!)

Umbrella.

Chronicles.

2.

Featuring the mysteriously absent RE2/CV scenario from UC1, as well as RE4 and maybe even (but I highly doubt it) RE5.

Wonder if this will be announced earlier in the week in Japan

I really want SFIV to come to Wii. I've been playing the shit out of that game on my friends PS3 and I can't get enough. Also want the official TE sticks to release on Wii as well.

It's a party for a Resident Evil game. They can announce more RE games.

As long as whatever they announce for Wii uses the RE4 engine I'm fine with it.

Resident Evil 2: Deadlier Silence for the Nintendo DS.

Seems people right now for the most part have their expectations low but you just watch. During the minutes the event starts everyone will start to get hyped.

Games? A Wii game is almost confirmed so...

Capcom should show more love to psp. It's the system with the best selling Capcom game this gen and the best selling Capcom game ever in Japan.

Yeah, I know

So what titles would be left to cover in a RE:UC 2? Would Capcom dare stick story elements from RE5 in it?

RE2, Code Veronica, RE4?

I don't dare to expect anything more

There isn't much left to Umbrella. The only ones they didn't cover was RE2 and RE:CV. Umbrella is gone by RE4 and RE5 and Ada's story actually covers the important stuff from RE2 on Umbrella so...yeah, not a whole lot left unless they decided to make a bunch of new scenarios....
or cover Survivor and Dead Aim.

IGN: Resident Evil 5 simply can't be remade, at least not to the standards of Capcom's best work. So the answer is not to remake, but to rewrite.
