[Multiplatform] Resident Evil Homoerotic 'Roid Abuse Edition

Bit off topic but I figure you guys would know better than anyone. I've got a US PS3 but I'm living in England. As far as I know Sony had a regionless policy on their games, but any reason I should get RE5 imported from the states as opposed to picking it up here?

Unfortunately, I think I'll be trying to tackle the split screen co-op since my friend I want to play it with doesn't have a PS3. Luckily my TV's big enough if we sit close enough to it, crane our backs, and wear our reading glasses we should be in good shape.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I just got the game today and have been playing it co-op with Sian, been a really good time so far. Took a while to get used to not just fucking off and doing our own thing, but once we did it started getting fun. It's aiming to be a pretty short game though =(

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Co-op has been really intense a lot because of ammo management. Most of the times we're yelling at each other it's because one of us has fucked off and the other time is ammo. One thing that's frustrating to me is for the weapon types we share there's no way to give a certain amount of ammo to someone. When ammo is tight and I have a full box of handgun ammo I'd rather give 25 of my ammo to my partner so I don't have to find her again when I need to reload. Makes you dependent on them though, which could be considered a good thing I suppose.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

When you load up another level, Sheva will still have the item, but so will Chris. It's time-consuming and cheap as hell, but it's a fast, easy way to get money for upgrading weapons.

You can load Sheva up with Rotten Eggs, which sell for 2,000 a pop, and make 45,000 each time you do it. I did that up to 999 Rotten Eggs, sold it all for a cool 1,990,000, bought and upgraded all my weapons, and I still had over 1,000,000.

Does anyone know if you can sign in someone else's profile on the second controller on the PS3?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

That's a shame: no independent trophy support (not a huge deal but good for shits and giggles) and most annoying of all is the second player can't sell or upgrade anything. I see the logic behind it, especially for online co-op but it'd be nice to be able to give your partner a certain amount of money from your own to do their own upgrades with instead of having to drop the gun down into the inventory for player 1 to upgrade. Super lame. Game is fun but we've been playing it 3 days in 3-4 hour burts and we're almost done with it now. Lots of replayability with weapon upgrades and playing through chapters/mercenaries etc but it's a shame after how long Resident Evil 4 was.

Most amazing jew boots

Me and Sian are stuck on

Spoiler:

Wesker's evil demon arm phase. I don't get what you're supposed to do...surely you run out of ammo before you can take him out. What's the trick to it?

Any help would be appreciated!

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I did mean that part actually, thanks! I'll give it a go next time we play

FELIPE NO

Anyone have a PS3 and wants to do the rotten egg trick/money making trick with me? I'm in the process of upgrading all my weapons and need some cash =p. PM me if you've got some spare time and want to help a poor defenseless guy like me out. Yeah...

Bit random, but does anyone know how to get the full 3 hit combo between me and Sheva. Me and Sian have been fucking around with it and can't get it to work. Our pride hurts.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It's kinda neat how some of the melee moves were influences from Street Fighter; such as Sheva's Somersault, Wesker's Tigger Uppercut, Chris' Backhand, and

Spoiler:

Jill's Double Knee Drop.

I've yet to get the 3 hit combo yet...oh welly. That said

Spoiler:

Jill's double knee drop was amazing. Reminded me of Ong-Bak which is a very good thing in a video game.
