Amazon.com Product Description
Experience the thrill and terror of the infamous Resident Evil franchise like never before with the Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition. Featuring Chris Redfield of the original Resident Evil and new partner Sheva Alomar, a West African agent of the Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance (BSAA), this sci-fi action/survival game is packed with hordes of fast-moving, quick-thinking enemies that represent a whole new breed of unimaginable undead evil. The Gold Edition features every exciting play option found in the initial releases of the game, including two-player co-op, powerful new weapons and real-time inventory management between players, but also includes all RE5 console version download content released to date. This includes new episodes and costumes, an improved Mercenaries Mode, and online versus mode.
From the ashes of old conflicts, a new terror arises. The Umbrella Corporation and its crop of lethal viruses have been destroyed and contained, but a new, more dangerous threat has emerged. Years after surviving the events in Raccoon City, Chris Redfield has been fighting the scourge of bio-organic weapons all over the world. Now a member of the Bio-terrorism Security Assessment Alliance (B.S.A.A.), Chris is sent to Africa to investigate a biological agent that is transforming the populace into aggressive and disturbing creatures. Joined by local BSSA agent, Sheva Alomar, the two must work together to solve the truth behind the disturbing turn of events. Exciting Two-Player Co-op Mode The new cooperative gameplay element focuses on the realities of a dual-agent mission, highlighting the ways in which Redfield and Alomar must work together to survive the unexpected, while still allowing them to split up and work alone. To help you maximize the potential of this setup, two-player online and offline co-op modes ensure that you have options when aligning yourself with a partner. New Episodes Episodes and Costumes In addition to all the campaign gameplay content included in the initial standard console release, Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition also includes two all-new episodes. These include "Lost in Nightmares" in which Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine journey back to the Spencer Mansion from the original Resident Evil to solve its puzzles, and uncover the secrets of the Umbrella Corporation; and "Desperate Escape", featuring Jill Valentine and BSAA agent Josh Stone fighting to escape the Tricell facility, and the unrelenting waves of enemies at their heels. The Gold Edition also adds two new costume packs containing a total of four new costumes. These new costumes feature full playability both in-game and in cutscenes, ensuring that Gold Edition players always fight evil in style. Online Versus Mode now Included Originally available only as an additional digital content download, the Resident Evil 5 online versus mode comes packaged along with the Gold Edition. In it players with free PlayStation Network memberships take control of Chris, Sheva and other RE5 favorites in online battles of up to four players where the choice is yours whether to fight alone or with a team in two game variations which include "Slayers", where you compete for points by defeating the zombie Majini, and "Survivors", where you fight against human competition. Mercenaries Reunion Mercenary Mode, was an unlockable mode available at the end of the single player campaign in the original releases of the game that hearkened back to the franchises roots in the Horror genre. Mercenaries Reunion is an updated version of that mode included in the Gold Edition. It is an all-out, arcade style zombie fest in which players must eliminate as many enemies as they can in a limited amount of time, using only the weapons and ammo that is found in the play environment, and a curtailed number of inventory slots. Available both offline and online, Mercenaries Reunion features eight new playable characters and weapon load outs, providing players with additional opportunities and challenges. An Unprecedented Level of Fear CO-producer and series veterans Jun Takeuchi (Lost Planet) and Masachika Kawata (Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition, Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles) unleash an unprecedented level of fear for the next generation in Resident Evil 5, the sequel to one of the highest-rated video games in history according to Metacritic.com and Gamerankings.com. Revolutionizing the series with an unbelievable level of detail, realism and control, Resident Evil 5 is certain to bring new fans to the series as well as satisfy veteran players. These incredible changes to both the gameplay and world of Resident Evil make this a must-have game for gamers across the globe. Key Features | |||||||

This game is essentially a HD version of RE4 with a co-op (2 player) online or AI (computer controlled) partner. This game is best with another player controlling Sheva but its perfectly fine as a single player game too. This Gold Edition re-release includes the following:
Lost in Nightmares bonus mission
Desperate Escape bonus mission
Mercenaries Reunion battle game
Barry Burton, Rebecca Chambers and Excella Gionne as playable characters in Mercenaries Reunion mode.
4 new costumes (2 for Sheva and 2 for Chris)
Extra in game figures to collect
Online player vs player Versus mode.
Overall this is a very good deal for those that passed on the original release.
Eat Brains in Africa!
Resident Evil 5 is the latest instalment of the Resident Evil series, and like it's predecessors, has you running around fighting bloodthirsty zombies who want to eat your brains, and any other juicy organs they can get their rotting teeth on. Like it's predecessor, "5" continues the shift from survival horror to action horror, in which you no longer have the turning speed of a drunk hippopotamus and are no longer constrained by cameras glued to odd portions of a room by duck tape. And where Resident Evil 4 took place in Europe, "5" takes place in the hot plains of Africa. It's a definite change of pace, and to some degree the game really isn't all that scary, seeing as most of it takes place in brightly lit areas in the daytime, which sucks out a lot of the fear factor. Add in the fact that you now have a partner with you at all times, along with enough guns and firearms to wipe out a small third world country, and it's not surprising to hear that people say RE5 has strayed too far from it's roots and has RUINED THE FRANCHISE FOREVER.
However, I don't think that's entirely true. Although the game is no longer a survival horror, it exchanges outright scares for tremendous tension. It's not uncommon to be running around, surrounded by a dozen zombies, many of whom are carrying axes, machetes, and other sharp instruments of death. Coupled with the fact that you take damage pretty quickly, and that you're frequently fairly low on ammo, makes for tremendous tension. There were many times when I was literally starting to sweat, and my heart was pounding while I desperately tried to hold off some particularly powerful monsters while waiting for an elevator to arrive. Having a partner also reduces the horror element, but again, this ties into the tension factor, as you have to keep her alive, as if either of you die, it's game over.
Personally, I think there's a lot to enjoy here. The run and gun gameplay (though this is kinda incorrect, in that you can't move while shooting) works well, and the gunplay is lots of fun, especially when using some of the more powerful weapons, such as rocket launchers, gatling guns, and grenade launchers that shoot off nitrogen rounds, which freeze enemies, allowing you to blast them into tiny, frozen chunks. There's a huge variety of monsters out to eat your brains, ranging from your standard zombies and dogs, evil chainsaw lunatics wearing burlap sacks over their heads, to all sort of giant nasties. There's also a lot of variety in the locations you'll visit, from abandoned shanty towns, to marshlands, to underground laboratories. Coupled with the amazing graphics, and you've got a lot to love here.
Special mention must go to your partner, newcomer Sheva. While most AI sidekicks have the IQ of a head of lettuce, Sheva is amazingly enough, actually pretty capable of taking care of both herself and you, and more once She'll come to your aid if you're dying. I also felt confident having her run around and gun down enemies on her own without having to worry about babysitting her, a feat virtually unheard of in video games. However, she's not entirely perfect, because she seems to have an almost religious devotion to her pistol. Equip her with a shotgun, machine gun, grenade launcher, and a pistol, and she'll use the pistol at every opportunity, even when facing a gigantic, multi-story monster that is clearly being unharmed from tiny pistol bullets. If Satan himself emerged from the bowls of Hell to destroy the planet, I wouldn't be surprised to see Sheva whip out her pistol and try to kill him with it, instead of doing the sensible thing and launching a tactical nuclear strike.
With regards to length, the single player campaign is just about right, and while shorter then previous entries, the game never feels too short. And to add icing on the cake, you can also go through the entire game with a buddy in co-op mode, and I highly recommend doing this, as it makes the game much more fun and enjoyable. Once you're done with the single player campaign, the game has a lot of replay value, with different costumes to unlock, the ability to get infinite ammo for all your weapons, the ability to play the game in black and white, and the return of the Mercenaries mini-game. All in all, there's a lot to keep you occupied, and coupled with the already fun campaign, this makes Resident Evil 5 a lot of fun to play many times over.
This version of the game, dubbed gold edition, features some new additional content that wasn't present in the original release of the game. You get two mini-games, four new costumes for Chris and Sheva, a Versus mode, and new characters for the Mercenaries mini game.
The biggest addition to this edition are the two new mini-adventures, "Lost in Nightmares" and "Desperate Escape". "Lost" takes place before the events of the main game, and feature Chris and Jill Valentine sneaking around a creepy mansion while avoiding large, powerful creatures who want to kill them. It's a throwback to the classic RE survival Horror structure, as the atmosphere is dark and creepy, and a heavier reliance on puzzle solving, rather then outright combat. "Desperate Escape" takes place near the end of the main game, following two characters (I won't say who, to avoid spoiling it for those who haven't played the main game yet), as they struggle to escape from a heavily infested compound with their lives. It won't be easy, considering that they're outnumbered almost a hundred to one. Both adventures, while short (you can complete each one in under an hour or so), are still a lot of fun and definitely worth playing through, especially "Escape", as enemies swell up and explode with such frequency that it becomes downright hilarious, especially enemies who's giant backpacks swell up as well, which, while impossible, is pretty damn funny.
The other big additions to the gold edition are the versus and Mercenaries reunion mini-games. I haven't played Versus mode, so I won't comment on that, other then to say that it allows you to go head to head with other players online to try and kill each other. Mercenaries Reunion is essentially the same as the original, complete with the same stages, only with new characters, including classic RE faces such as Rebecca and Barry (I LOVE you Barry!). While I normally despise Mercenaries mode, here you can select any character from the start, which means you get access to some very heavy fire power, rather then a dinky pistol and average shotgun. As a result, I actually had fun, something that I thought was impossible with the Mercenaries mode, so this addition gets a thumbs up from me.
The last additions are four new costumes. Heavy Metal and Warrior for Chris, both of which scream, "Mad Max Cosplay", and Fairy Tale and Business attire for Sheva. You also get some new figurines to unlock and admire. All in all, the new additions are a lot of fun and are definitely worth looking into.
In the end, is Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition worth it? If you haven't played the game yet, then I would recommend getting this version, as you'll be getting a lot of goodies that you wouldn't otherwise receive. For those who already have the main game, you can buy and download the new content from the official playstation store online, which means that you won't have to go out and buy a new disk to see all the new stuff. So all in all, if you're a fan of the series, even if the focus on Action horror has RUINED IT FOREVER, Resident Evil 5 is definitely worth a look.
Your Old Save File is Still Good. No Need to Replay
After buying the Limited Edition, I was a little bitter about this release. But after selling it and purchasing this edition, I don't regret it. All content released for the Game is on the disc and I pretty much prefer that than having it take up HD space. Since my old save file still works, I can't complain.
If you haven't gotten the game yet, Definitely get this version. The reason why I like this version is because I'm an Old School Resident Evil Fan. While Sheva is cool and all, I prefer Jill on my cover. Not only is she the star of this edition, she's my favorite character in the series. I'm weird like that. The Limited Edition Metal Case didn't do it for me after owning it for awhile. It kind of bothered me that the design started to make me think they just paid a 5 year old kid to scribble on it. Plus I didn't like the idea to put Chris and Sheva on the back while the Five was in the Front. Basically I was disappointed with it and didn't mind replacing it with this version.
When referring to the game, I actually found the 2 Extra Bonus Chapters to be more enjoyable than the actual title itself. Not saying that the main game is bad. Just saying that these two chapters do a better job of invoking the feelings I thought Resident Evil 5 could have done better. Lost in Nightmares has the old school scary Resident Evil vibe we all know and love. It's what Resident Evil 5 should have been. My only gripes are that I wish it was longer and had more enemies, but it definitely fills the void for those who miss the old titles and not being able to play as Jill in the main game. Desperate Escape is the more action oriented chapter of the 2. Not scary, but intense. More intense than the main game. These two extra editions did better in those fields in a small chunk.
Things to know. Old Save File still works and Original Game Install is no longer needed. Game has a New install for all the content at 6GB, so you can delete the original Data of 5GB. 1 extra GB, no big deal. If you don't want to buy, there's a complete bundle on PSN for 12.49. Just know you're missing out on a Cool Slip cover with Chris and Jill on it. So that's my two cents. If you haven't gotten it yet, this is the Definitive Version.
