Are you bored with the unspoken, yet powerful sexual tension between Resident Evil 5’s protagonists, Chris and Sheva? Yeah, we are too — that’s why we’re so excited about these scans from the latest issue of Famitsu (as uncovered by Siliconera), which reveal that the second chapter in the game’s Alternative Edition DLC, titled Desperate Escape, will let you play as Jill Valentine and Josh Stone. In case you didn’t recognize that last name, Josh Stone is actually a pretty popular British female soul singer. Seems like a weird choice, but what-evs.
Okay, Josh Stone is actually the BSAA member who helps out Chris and Sheva throughout the game — mostly through the deus ex machina helicopter rescues for which the series is well-known. But wait — if you’re playing as Josh Stone, who’s going to come rescue you at the end of the game in a helicopter? This could be bad, folks.

If you’re desperately wanting to get your hands on some new glad rags for Resident Evil 5’s co-operative protagonists, then the expanded “Mercenaries Reunion” gametype in the game’s upcoming DLC should fulfill your sartorial fantasies. Sheva’s new outfit, nicknamed “Fairy Tale,” resembles Little Red Riding Hood’s garments, as reimagined by someone involved in the adult film industry. Chris’s new outfit, nicknamed “Warrior,” simply turns him into a person-shaped collection of fists.
Sheva’s duds can be seen in the video above, while Chris’s can be found just after the jump. Proceed with caution if you elect to view the latter — there’s a very real possibility that your eyeballs could get punched.

Jill Valentine knows what’s up: Only the most refined individual understands the elegance of the crank. Chris Redfield and his personal gun show may complain that an entire mansion is being run on the archaic device in this teaser for upcoming Resident Evil 5 DLC episode, Lost in Nightmares, but that’s because the dude doesn’t respect the crank’s noble history. We’re just glad one of the two survivalists has enough class to acknowledge the significance of history’s great gate opener.

The upcoming Alternative Edition DLC for Resident Evil 5 is going to include much more than motion controller support for PS3 and the “Lost in Nightmares” flashback episode. The latest issue of Japanese mag Famitsu (via Andriasang) notes that Capcom has two additional surprises for players: new costumes and new characters for a revamped “Mercenaries Reunion” (seen above), as well as an extra, yet-to-be-revealed chapter.
All this content will be released as four separate DLC packs:
- “Lost in Nightmares” Episode – 400
($5)
- Costume Pack 1 – 160 ($2)
- Costume Pack 2 – 160 ($2)
- Additional TBA Episode – 400 ($5)
These prices are only confirmed for Japan, but it’s unlikely the US release will be too different. Will two new campaign episodes lure you back into Resident Evil 5’s monster safari?

As promised, this week’s Xbox Live Deal of the Week is the Versus Mode DLC for Resident Evil 5. The content has been discounted by forty percent, dropping from 400 ($5) to 240 ($3). We can’t imagine there being too many fence-sitters out there waiting to buy this initially controversial DLC (which we liked).
Over in Japan, they’re getting a different deal: Golf: Tee It Up for 400 ($5), fifty percent off the normal price. Remember when you could just call a game “Golf” and be done with it?

Update: Houston, we have prices!
As you already know, this week’s Xbox Live Deal of the Week is none other than Prince of Persia’s ‘Epilogue’ DLC. We’re not here to talk about that, though — instead, we’re here to give you the heads up on what the rest of this month has in store for penny-pinching purchasers looking for goodies on Xbox Live. So let’s get to it:
October 12
October 19
October 26
Pub Games is the only title with its planned discount listed, so you’ll have to wait until the appropriate time to know how much the others are discounted for. We’re sorry we boggled your mind with savings, only to battle your ship — ah, forget it, that joke could never work.

Well, maybe featuring Jill is not quite accurate — “it’s gonna be, uh, at least, somewhat involving Jill Valentine,” confirms voice of Jill, Patricia Ja Lee, fresh from recording new voice and perhaps mocap work for Resident Evil 5: Director’s Cut. That’s right: Resident Evil 5: Director’s Cut. It seems that P.J. Lee has also inadvertently announced a new, more twisting, more turning version of RE5 in the works.
What else do we know? “It’s some good scenes.” Catch the full blab after the break.

Now, before you go all click crazy, you should know that you’ll find no nudity in this post, so you can just bury those dirty, filthy impulses back under your Judeo-Christian upbringing where they belong. However, a calendar made for fans by Karen Dyer (the voice and body of Resident Evil 5’s Sheva) may be a touch more risque than your place of business is comfortable with. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
The calendar is free, comprised of PDFs and available right here … or you can just wait to see it hanging from the wall of your local zombie mechanic.

It’s going to be difficult to be completely spoiler-free for this one, so fair warning. During a panel at Comic-Con, Resident Evil 5 producer Masachika Kawata was asked if Albert Wesker would return in a future Resident Evil title, considering Resident Evil 5 leaves you believing he’s gone. According to SIliconera, Kawata says Wesker’s days in Resident Evil are over.
“Even if you want Albert Wesker to come back there is no chance of that happening,” Kawata told the audience. Of course, Kawata forgets that Wesker will be seen in the upcoming Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, which takes place in Raccoon City during Resident Evil 2’s storyline. As for Wesker going the way of the Dodo, we’ll believe that when we see it. Or don’t see him, we should say.
