Resident Evil 5

Resident Evil 5 Demo Release Date

Mark your calender's boys and girls for the demo for the highly anticipated Resident Evil 5 is due out later this month. Gamespot got word that Capcom will be releasing the demo on January 26, but only if you have a Xbox360. That's right, us 360 owners will be given the demo while people with PS3 are left in the dust!!!! No demo for you!

Okay, before y'all with PS3s scream and cry, don't fret. You'll get the demo, I was just kidding. But you'll be getting it a week after 360. So be sure to check the demo section of downloadable content come the 26th. The demo will allow the gamer to sample two sections of the game, playing through either single player (with the computer controling Sheva) or the new co-op mode.

Set roughly ten years after the original game, Chris Redfield (now part of an anti-Bioterriorism agency) is dispatched to Africa to investigate strange goings on in a small, run down city. Redfield however is not alone as a fellow agent named Sheva Alomar is sent along with him.

Resident Evil 5 is due out on March 13, 2009 for Xbox360 and Playstation 3, both will retail for $59.99; and like most big releases nowadays, there will also be a Collector's Edition. Special features for the Collector's Edition haven't been fully released yet and it will set you back a hefty $89.99.
