GAME TRAILER: Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition!

Capcom just put the trailer for the Resident Evil 5 expansion.

Based on the trailer I am definitely interested in getting this. It looks like they added a ton of options for co-op play, including making Jill Valentine a playable character. (And let’s face it, no matter how riddled the game is with problems, the co-op is really fun.) The creatures that are introduced in that trailer look cool, and I’m sure there are going to be plenty of additions for the arsenal as well. The only thing that doesn’t interest me is the new costumes, I guess I never really got that. (Except Samus in a bikini. That always made plenty of sense.)

This is unfortunately set to release the same day as Final Fantasy XIII. (March 9th) So suckers like me are going to have to blow an entire paycheck on video games that week. The gold edition is going to be offered by both download and hard copy. If you are anything like me, you’ll want the hard copy, and I would suggest pre-ordering it on Amazon now. You can do that here. I personally prefer the PS3 version, as I find that the controls are awesome.
