I have it and beat it a few months ago. I have some pretty cool mods for it which i never got around to installing and gonna run through it on Professional mode. Can't get enough of this game and have beat it like 8 times
I haven't had an Xbox since 2011 so that's not really an issue for me. The game has a lot of replay-ability for my taste so I'd start fresh if necessary

If you get impatient and decide to play RE5 now, here are some workarounds to get GFWL running on Windows 8. The trigger for me is moving the folders over to the 32 bit side as well.

So, going for trophies... what should my next playthrough be? I've decided that I'm not going to attempt a speedrun just yet as I'm still re-familiarizing myself with the game. I guess my options are either a hard mode run or a knife-only run, but I figure that maybe the hard mode run could be combined with a speed run later on-- but I'm not sure if that's wise either.
Just basically looking for a sensible "roadmap" to getting all trophies with the minimal number of required playthroughs.

Don't do a Speedrun on Hard UNLESS you've got the Rocket Launcher.
Do easy for the Speedrun if you aren't used to doing Normal. For Passion for Fashion you HAVE to have both characters completed on one save file which opens "One Dangerous Zombie" which, IMO, should be an option and it's stupid of Capcom to not fix that in the HD port, but whatever.
Ignoring that you need 4 playthroughs: One on normal to unlock all difficulties. One again with the same character on Real Survival (any difficulty, apparently it'll unlock Hard/Real Survival at the same time), one character/other on Invisible Enemy (to avoid "One Dangerous Zombie" being added to this, use the one character twice before doing this run so it unlocks "ODZ" on this run complete) then do another normal run with the other character to mop up.

My order
1. Jill Normal 100% Save Everyone
2. Chris Very Easy Knife Only Save Everyone
3. Jill Real Survival Save Nobody
4. Chris Very Easy Invisible Enemies No Saves Save Nobody
5. Jill Normal Speed Run Save Nobody
I believe that should get you everything.
edit - playthrough four should be no saves. No saves would also work on playthrough 2, though I didn't feel experienced enough by that point to try it.

That looks great. Thank you! Really helps clear the dust. I did the first one, but on easy. I also saved everyone, then reloaded a save and did the opposite to get both trophies.

Do you have to do the 3 hour speedrun on normal to get the rocket launcher?

Dude Dino Crisis is the shit.
Oh, for trophies like obtain all weapons, does this have to be done on one save file, or does it all stack in general?

lol, jk. I played Dino Crisis way back when it came out, and I remember really enjoying it, but I don't remember much about it at this point. Maybe I should finally give it another go too.

One save file to be safe. Always use your latest clear save (make a clear save after every playthrough and play from it) and select Once Again/Real Survival/Invisible Enemies depending on what you're going for.

Once I'm done playing this, I feel so in the mood to play through more of the classic RE games. RE0master can't come soon enough, but man...I wish there was a remake of RE2 and 3. I love RE2, but I'm just tired of going back to it with those old graphics, and clunky controls. I think some versions of RE2 did add the quick turn, but I don't have any of those versions. Wasn't it the Gamecube version that had that?
I'm also ashamed to say it, but even though I was an RE fan since I first played RE2 when it came out, I still have never finished RE3.

Yeah Dino Crisis is pretty damn good although I don't think it's the most challenging Mikami game.
Dino Crisis 2 is also pretty awesome although it skews heavily into the action direction.
Dino Crisis is excellent. I remember having to beat it without saving because I didn't own a memory card at the time. Those were the days :/

Glad I asked, then. With these things it's always sketchy.
Marking this post for later if I decide to go for platinum. I finally finished my first run with Jill and it seemed a lot longer, but it took me just over 13 hours. I will be taking a semi-break before I do a Chris run or anything else.

just logged at RE.net to see some stuff and saw this
this was my reaction
i saw some of members here did that
but ,,,, HOW ?
how you gonna kill the snake using only the knife ?
how you gonna kill a hunter ?
or how you gonna beat the final boss ( the second time with there is a timer ) ?
People did that all the time in the original PS1 version and that was MUCH harder. It's not really that difficult
I played through the GameCube version back in 2004, I've just forgotten which doors go with which keys, so it's been a case of doing laps around the mansion to unlock all the Sword Key doors before remembering I had already picked up the Dog Whistle.

So what are the chances capcom/blue point will remaster Onimusha somewhere down the line? Of all the HD Classics to make it to the PS3 I can't understand why we haven't had an Onimusha Trilogy HD Collection yet.
Someone earlier in the thread said to use different save slots for each run through. So my second play through is being saved in Slot 2, not over my original save file in Slot 1. I don't really think it matters though because wherever you save your file it still has all of the data from previous playthroughs anyway.

I cannot remember anything other than the T-Rex scene and Flintstones inspired costume for Regina. I would love to play a remake of it

So if I have multiple saves and I unlock all the weapons across said saves, it'll count for the weapons (Starsenal) trophy?
The Xtortionist

As long as you have a single up-to-date cleared save, you can use as many of the other slots as you'd like.
There's also unlockable Chris' costume from CODE: Veronica.

Does that go for the one in the courtyard, where
Barry abandons you
EDIT: Or do you have to get it on one playthrough, including the costume room?

Why does everyone on gaf seem to hate RE5 so much?
I honestly think it's just as good as RE4. Sheva is kinda useless as an AI partner, but as long as you take away her weapons, she can't really fuck things up lolI haven't played it in a couple years, but I played RE5 sooo much because I had so much fun with it. The campaign, mercenaries, and the DLC were all so good. I even played with random people online for the campaign and still had a good time. It's not old school RE, but I still think it managed to perfectly provide a great sense of tension and fear during combat because of how threatening the enemies are, and while ammo is not as limited as a RE1-3 type game, it's certainly kinda limited enough where you want to aim carefully, and not waste bullets like any old action game.
I just don't understand why so many love RE4, and hate RE5. It felt like a good sequel to it. I prefer the RE4 style controls, so I always played RE5 like that, with one analog. Feels more like Resident Evil to me when you play it like that. I also think it's probably one of the most enjoyable in terms of characterization and story. Chris, Sheva and Jill are all portrayed great, with well done cutscenes and dialogue.
That's just my opinion anyway, I just don't like being a minority

I agree with you. Especially about the controls. Switched immediatly to RE4 tank controls because the normal setting felt like total crap. Yes it's worse than RE4 ... but is it a bad game? No. But I think a lot of people actually like it. We need to focus our hate on 6 and Code Veronica

I'm with you. I had so much fun playing RE5 on PS3. I've spent hundreds of hours on the PS3 version and later I double dipped on the Steam version.

Same here.
I think RE5 is better than 4. Not that i think 4 is a bad game, its great.

Yeah, honestly - this sounds awkward to say since RE5 was such a huge seller, but from a critical standpoint I think it's a little bit underrated. It's not quite on the level of RE4 (although it does beat it in a few aspects. Reapers are such a fantastic enemy, I love them) but it's an excellent game, and the co-op is brilliantly implemented. I definitely feel bad for people who tried to play it solo, though, but when the game is clearly made to be played with another person I can't say I sympathize with people who want to knock the game because the AI partners suck.

I think RE5 is about as good as RE4, but I think RE4 is incredibly overrated. Even the controls in RE4 aren't good enough. And I've read many people claim it is like the best game of all time... I just find it hard to believe that people feel that highly about the game and I am a long time fan of the RE series.
It is also weird that people complain about tank controls in re1-cv but then RE4 uses tank controls and its like the bomb for some reason. I mean, you literally cannot strafe in the game.
I still like RE4... but it is far from being a top tier game imho. It does a lot of things worse than even mediocre games get right consistently.

Wow, this shit is intense
Loving the game so far, specially the challenge provided by messing up the beginning XDD
The other day I found myself without ink ribbons (it's hard to get rid of the habit of saving every 5 minutes >.<) and I had to beat mister snake, father crimson and monster lisa BEFORE I could find another ink ribbon Good luck I could run past snake and lisa but fuck, that was intense haha
Now I just killed the father shark and I have 1 ink ribbon in my inventory.

Resident Evil 6 being a pile of shit made me - and others - appreciate Resident Evil 5 a lot more. I consider RE5 the last great RE title, personally. A lot of things came to a head and the series only ever went downhill since then from a quality perspective.
Resident Evil Remake Remastered Revengeance coming out during this questionable time for the series is a nice reminder of what the series was and what it should aim to be even now. It helps that the remaster still holds up excellently. It's still my absolute favourite survival horror title.

Bad news, there are more boss fights to come, I'd try and hold off saving so often.
I'd probably put RE5 alongside RE3 quality-wise. Neither are as strong as the best games in the series (RE/REmake and RE4, for me), but they're still incredibly strong, well-polished and fun games.
I love Rockfort Island, but the game nose-dives in quality after the fight with the tyrant. The little Spencer mansion was nice, but the rest of Antartica is really dull.

I had a similar "Oh shit!" moment, when I hadn't saved for a while and ran into
Yawn for the second time
I guess saving once after beating a boss is good, right? That's what I'm doing, but now I need to find another ink ribbon because there is just one left XD
Looking forward to kill meaning of life (plantie), so much trolling under the floor.
I can boot the game but when it asks me to update Windows Live, I'm unable to install it. It says "The Installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file: C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\xlive\sqmapi.dll."
I have 4 hours trying to figure out what the problem is but nothing is working. i have windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit. Without updating Gfwl I won't be able to save the game

Felt the need to back you up, I completely agree. Absolutely loved RE 5, it still carried a lot of the good things from RE 4 and I enjoyed the entire game and mercenaries was a lot of fun! Going through the campaign first time on local co-op with a buddy was honestly one of the better co-op experiences I've had in gaming. So much laughs and fear to be had.
