Hot Games of 2008
Resident Evil 5
Format: Xbox 360, PS3
Due April
Wave bye-bye to the clichéd haunted mansion or ramshackle foggy ghost town and wave a warm, sunburnt hello to big trouble in paradise as the undead pack their bags for sunnier climbs.
RE 5 is surprisingly bright and colourful, with backdrops of sun-bleached African villages looking more Black Hawk Down than Resident Evil.
This really flips the script on the typical zombie shooter as the developers have used new and innovative ways of scaring you half to death.
