It's already been out on PSN.
Good stuff, fantastic looking game.
cc123 @ Jul 26th 2007 2:29PM
Justin it's not due on PSN tomorrow.
It's there right now.
Christopher Grant @ Jul 26th 2007 2:32PM
We got an email from Capcom just a moment ago confirming the extended version wouldn't be available on PSN until tomorrow. You sure this is the brandy new extended version embedded above that you're talking about?
cc123 @ Jul 26th 2007 2:35PM
I'm dling right now, but on the blog Capcom confirmed it was the extended and out today.

Just watched both, they're the same.
Jose @ Jul 26th 2007 2:23PM
Where the flack is the HD version?
Alex S. @ Jul 26th 2007 2:25PM
Dear Capcom,
Lower the contrast, we can't see shit.
Thanks,
Gamers
GRANTED @ Jul 26th 2007 3:16PM
dude i think the contrast is going to be there in-game. the whole premise is your eyes take time to adjust, light-versus-dark, so walking from shadows to light, inside to outside, etc., there are going to be short periods of time when you can't see what is going on. besides, these takes place in equatorial africa? there is some intense sunlight out there.
that trailer is getting me pumped. i cant believe how much zombie ass im going to kick.
Ally @ Nov 15th 2007 12:23PM
Apparently, Alex S hasnt stepped out side before :/
hvnlysoldr @ Jul 26th 2007 6:35PM
That's why Chris should bring an eye patch. Pirates wore eye patches for night vision so they could quickly enter different light sources without their eyes taking major time to readjust.
Dan @ Jul 27th 2007 12:44AM
I know I already talked about this, but I just decided to take a screenshot of RE4 and simply change the lighting to make it look like RE5.

I didn't spend much time on it, I'm just pointing out that the two games don't look a lot different except for the fancy lighting.
Spongie @ Jul 26th 2007 2:33PM
To bad we have to wait until 09 to get this gem...
deaftly @ Jul 26th 2007 2:31PM
looks pretty damn crazy, a little to shiny looking though but damn impressive non the less
samfish @ Jul 26th 2007 2:31PM
I haven't been able to view anything from Game Trailers in about a month, now...
Lou D @ Jul 26th 2007 2:38PM
LOL! It looks like an HD enhanced Resident Evil 4 engine. My bet is that a Wii version will be announced sooner or later. I think CAPCOM wanted to see if there is a market for it on the Wii by releasing RE4:WE last month. Hopefully, they got the message that hardcore gamers own Wii' also.
deaftly @ Jul 26th 2007 2:41PM
hate to tell ya, its NOT coming to the wii ever, enjoy your house of the dead clone, buy a 360 or ps3 if you want to enjoy this, stop kidding yourself
Jack of No Trades @ Jul 26th 2007 2:43PM
I smell jealousy....or is that lust...
Mr Khan @ Jul 26th 2007 3:44PM
I think his was more scorning their lack of a real graphical overhaul (aside from the natural push in polygons, effects, etc)
But the really realistic engines do tend to look alike, because they're all supposed to be, well, realistic
Jack of No Trades @ Jul 26th 2007 2:40PM
If it plays like that, it will be a killer.
Lou D @ Jul 26th 2007 2:43PM
It plays like Resident Evil 4.
@deaftly
It seems you have a bit of Wii-envy. Grow up fanboy.
deaftly @ Jul 26th 2007 2:52PM
hate to burst your bubble but i have a 360 and a wii, keep wishing for gta4 and re5 on the wii, make sure not to hold your breath, what would the ninty fanboys do without you
bm @ Jul 26th 2007 8:00PM
Oh god, jack is back?
Wii misseded you! No really.
John C @ Jul 26th 2007 2:43PM
I was really hoping to see something different when gameplay video came around, but the scenarios shown were exactly like RE4 only with African ganados. I mean, seriously, it looks like the same animations, attacks, AI, everything...
Jack @ Jul 26th 2007 2:45PM
Did you actually play RE4? You know there's going to be some huge freaking twist, anyway.
zwarrior @ Jul 26th 2007 6:11PM
Its hard to judge from this alone, though they do seem similar; except the "ganados" in this one are freakin fast, wth
Lou D @ Jul 26th 2007 2:47PM
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. But add tons of glare to hide polygons, crank up the detail and call it "next-gen".
Jack of No Trades @ Jul 26th 2007 2:49PM
I would rather have traditional controls with updated graphics & detail than new controls & 64 graphics.
Silver @ Jul 26th 2007 7:35PM
Graphics are worthless without good controls. And after playing RE4 Wii Edition, I don't think I can ever go back to aiming (laming?) with a thumbstick.
Have fun with that, Jack.
Phranctoast @ Jul 26th 2007 2:51PM
The trailer on the psn was in the E3 sizzle video. Is this its own separate download?
Edwin @ Jul 26th 2007 2:53PM
Oye, I need an Xbox 360... too bad there's no Wii version with dumbed down graphics.
Lou D @ Jul 26th 2007 2:58PM
'cuz graphics make you smart
ronald.raygun @ Jul 26th 2007 2:56PM
damn this game looks good, it also looks harder. they're quite faster than re4 guanados or whatever. I hope you can find a pair of sunglassess in the game because those dark rooms are going to kill me everytime.
BTW i think the contrast is supposed to be like that, i remember hearing how they want you to be careful with the sun light because it takes time to adjust to the dark rooms.
manford @ Jul 26th 2007 2:59PM
I shudder to think at the outcry that will ensue when Al Sharpton (as well as Jack thompson) gets wind that this game has a white dude shooting away at 100's of Africans.
Streets will burn fo'sho!
Jack of No Trades @ Jul 26th 2007 3:04PM
Yea maybe Chris Redfield calls them "nappy headed hoes" when he shoots them and has John Denver music playing in the background for added racism points.
Andrew @ Jul 26th 2007 3:08PM
I was thinking the same exact thing. After the outcry, it will be a black dude mowing down zombies in Greenwich, CT
Phranctoast @ Jul 26th 2007 3:52PM
Chris has to me twice as wary. Not only can he contract whatever new virus is in the game....ill leave it at that. to politically incorrect.lol
zwarrior @ Jul 26th 2007 5:56PM
They're not the emperors of African Americans, let alone all black people of the world. Who cares what they think
Arturo @ Jul 26th 2007 9:53PM
looks awesome. i'm drawing a blank in my RE history, what happened to chris between re1 and now?
Lucas @ Jul 26th 2007 3:15PM
Put a KKK uniform on that whiteboy! It's the new white supremecist simulator from Capcom!
Seriously though, politicians already see these games as murder training simulators, what do you think will happen when you have a white guy killing tons of black guys and saying it's "his mission" and "duty"? This is not going to end well.
Jack of No Trades @ Jul 26th 2007 3:17PM
I think thats such bullshit. If it was the opposite, a black guy killing a whole bunch of white zombies nobody would say shit. People suck.
deaftly @ Jul 26th 2007 3:26PM
yeah there is def going to be some bullshit on how this game is racist, once al sharpton sees this game, its all over, sigh, yeah people do suck
Rare Hare @ Jul 26th 2007 3:42PM
Does anybody actually listen to Al Sharpton anymore?
KiraXD @ Jul 26th 2007 4:14PM
White guy taking a stroll through Echo Park... he sure as hell be carrying a gun...
Lol i can just imagine the crap this game is going to get... White man, Killing black men AND WOMEN... (the "zombie" part will be overlooked)
Maybe thell throw in a random white tourist who just was in the wrong county at the wrong time that you can shoot.
Jake @ Jul 26th 2007 4:30PM
Yeah, they should change the hero to be a black man. Black men killing black people is much less of a problem today in America than white guys killing black people and "oppressing" them. If you don't believe that, you are obviously an ignorant racist and oppressive white male who's sole purpose in life is to make things hard on black people and need to take more college classes and listen to Sharpton better.
JonnyBoy2U @ Jul 26th 2007 6:07PM
As a black man I found the trailer to be exciting. I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
Its a GAME. Unless Chris is gonna be using the "n word" and throw in a couple of other racial epithets I think the game will be OKAY.
As for Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton they do NOT represent all black people or the black race as a whole. I for am sick and tired of them getting their big egos involved in things that do NOT concern them.
zwarrior @ Jul 26th 2007 6:17PM
Ever occured to some of you that the world does not revolve around the American Inference of such things?
Why worry about someone else's opinion on this? Who cares what Al Sharpton says? He's a hypocrite like most politicians.
AmishPhysicist @ Jul 26th 2007 8:26PM
There was a big hullabaloo about "Sahara" doing pretty much the same thing. The movie (and the failed/cancelled game/company I worked on/for) had a white dude vs. a horde of black bad guys. There was plenty of uproar in the beginning, but nothing really ever came of it. We'll see what heppens when it's a game and not a movie, tho.
JodyAnthony @ Jul 26th 2007 3:30PM
portions of it look fantastic and portions of it look pretty crappy (to be blunt) but seeing those swarms of enemies coming at you has me pumped for sure.
matt @ Jul 26th 2007 3:39PM
it looks pretty sweet so far, but if they don't make it so you can move AND shoot at the same time, count me out. that is such bs.
Anthony33 @ Jul 26th 2007 3:42PM
I hope this game provides some sort of resolution to the end of RE:CV.
