New developments. The game needs its own thread now.
Click here for the trailer
It looks like a more playable version of Mercenaries and Versus Battle modes from Resident Evil 5.
...in which players take on the role of Umbrella Corporation special forces on a mission to clean up Raccoon City following the events of Resident Evil 2.
According to the site, the team will have access to "big guns" and employ a number of tricks to fool and manipulate enemies -- human or otherwise. Trying to kill series hero Leon Kennedy is said to factor into the game, with the possibility of friendly forces being deployed to protect him. Operation Raccoon City is reportedly in development for Xbox 360 and PS3, and is scheduled for release this winter.

Damn that trailer and the more I read about this just sounds hilariously bad. I'm sorry, but wow. You can probably count me out of this one.

Well Wipeout, if you're trying it, then there's a chance I'll give it a try along with you.

I will see what the pricing is like and if this is just going to be some kind of DLC halfwit attempt.
...squad based Umbrella missions in a decaying city full of zombies that's going to hell fast does have me pretty excited.

The pics and trailer look so cool. But then the more I actually read about it, the less and less cool it sounds.

Based on the trailer, maybe we can finally run and shoot at the same time. I've got a bad feeling about this one. At least Leon is in it.

Cue the time to ruin his character!
Without Mikami, I worry.
