Seriously, I play Resident Evil 5 every night. I know I've made it clear in the past that I'm not much of a fan of co-op gaming, but the magic formula for me seems to be the ability to play through a story with someone else rather than head-to-head challenges. At any rate, I'm having a blast, and I wish it would never end.
My wish may appear to be coming true with Capcom's announcement that Versus mode will be available to download as of tomorrow! It will cost you 400 points through Xbox LIVE or $4.99 through the Playstation store. This mode allows you to play with up to four people and presents two new challenges: Slayer's Rule, which is a point-based game that challenges you to kill Manjinis, or Survivor's Rule, which pits the players up against one another. I know that's normally not my cup of tea, but since I've been having so much fun with the game, I'm going to have to give it a spin. You gonna get it too?

I'll still be getting this for Slayer's Rule though. 4 player Mercs for the win.
@everybodyruns
Nah, it looks a lot better than that.
I totally forgot about MWesker's Hawk magnum. No reload time/recoil=cheap.
@eskimbo bob
Only Safari Chris gets rocket launchers. The other explosives are grenades and proximity mines (which take skill to use).
@Corak
I guess we'll see tomorrow how big the download is. Unlock or no unlock? The debate will rage!
What the devs should really do, is have a zombie survival mode. Yea, I know, a lot of zombie mode gameplay is in plenty other games as well, but this is a Resident Evil game you know. At least there are more types of enemy zombies in Resident Evil, istead of regular zombies pouring in by the hundreds.
I agree, man! I have not played a two player co-op game that is this engaging and fun! Eeeever. Thank you, Capcom!
I play RE:5 every damn night, son! Entirely too addicted to this game!
I once thought how cool it'd be to find BSAA emblems in the real world! =P
This DLC seems pretty sick, plus it's only five bucks... It'll be worth it!
I'm looking forward to killing you guys soon!
Albert is the man!
A new Genesis is at hand and I will be the creator!
