Alright, now with these two earlier trailers for RE5 in mind, what did you expect and want to have in RE5.

I think that having it take place in Africa was a really cool idea, for tons of reasons. Obviously they were coming full circle, as RE's very roots are in Africa. Progenitor, Spencer, Marcus, Ed Ashford, etc.

There was also the fact that Chris was going to be the protagonist, so you could, and I did, pretty much assume Wesker would be there, and with each of them vowing that the next time they met, it would be the last, you just knew that there would be an epic conclusion to their awesome feud.

There's more to it than that though, more than seeing pretty much where it all began and concluding a great feud. There are other things that they could do with the game being in Africa, that they couldn't do in any other game in any other location.

I would loved to have some sort of Witch Doctor stuff, very Candyman, Child's Play, Baron Samedi from Live & Let Die. The imagery and plot that could have been there would have been really cool. There's nothing indicating that we would have had anything like this, nothing to imply, I just would have liked it, though with the racism claims, I almost feel like that stuff would never have shown up....

It seemed, with the very first trailer for RE5, that the enemies could be T-virus infected, V-Acts(or Crimson Heads for those of you who don't know what V-Acts are). The ambiguous enemies turned out to be Las Plagas infectees, which is still cool, but also dissapointing.

Type 2 Las Plagas was a really cool new thing. Just the difference between injected someone with Las Plagas and waiting for it to mature and take control, versus using an already matured Plaga and orally forcing it into an individual, with almost immediate results, is awesome. Some of the visuals were cool too, like the way the mouth would open. Some of the new parasite creatures were cool too, like the weird crab one, and the flying ones.

I do feel that they were limited by having to rely on a partner, limited in how we could handle them. I can't stand getting grabbed from behind by a Majini.

Gameplay wise, I feel like the controls were pretty good overall in RE5, assuming you're playing with the RE control scheme, which I think was Type D. I liked the new spots for melee attacks. We now had about 6 or so, instead of just two.

So what kind of stuff did you want to see?

The Base Majini. It seems as though they never grab the player and their stun rods/AK-74/Rocket Launchers cannot be dropped even though you shoot their arms.
