Well, I don't see what was so wrong with Raccoon City itself, why not just have the game in another city? Why a desert city that looks similar to Africa? And use RE4's gameplay as an excuse to manhandle them?
Have you ever thought that the fact the game takes place in Africa might have... oh, I dunno... something to do with the damn plot?
That village looks poor in the cutscenes
Uhh... yeah. News flash: Africa is the poorest continent in the world. That's not racism, it's realism.

Yeah, of course, obviously it does, black zombies to toss around.

How are they expecting you to survive against 20x as much enemies on screen at once, and they are all a whole lot better and smart than RE4's ganados ermmI can tell this will get huge market sales by the KKK though ermm
HAHA! Yeah, the KKK and Japan of course, and let's not forget ignorant people.

You mean RE4's game play with some melee action added to it.
I think this may be another game like Final Fantasy 7 that gets rave reviews and I may end up hating, but I also don't have a 360 yet so who knows.

Oh give me a break, Japan hates the Ps3, that's pretty obvious. The consoles do the SAME graphics, the DIFFERENCES are the CONTROLLERS AND SPECS. There's no reason to go into that.
Japan hates Ps3, RE5 is using 4's recycled game play to toss around black zombies, who 'magically' have pitchforks.

Well thanks for taking less than a second to think about any sort of point that contradicts yours. ermm
Japan, being a mostly homogeneous country, generally does not intentionally engage in racism against black people. There is a whole long sad history in anime and manga exporting concerning Americans crying foul and Japanese not knowing what the hell they were going on about. Japan in general holds no especial animosity towards black people.
Your American principles are not automagically applied to everything.
Also, another fact: the original idea of "zombies" comes from voodoo, a religion that originated from - you guessed it - Africa. Clever way of giving a nod to the beginning of zombism.

Seriously, people need to overreact less.
It would be the same if they moved it to an asian village too, people would be in some dumbass uproar about it and whining about racism.

but htey hate the 360 more cause its not their creation its basically rivaling them so they would want the PS3 version to look better so people would go buy the ps3 for just that one game =\

So what, 5 is suppose to be full of voodoo wishers as well now just because of history? If the Japanese did Manhunt 2 instead of Rockstar London and Canada, it would be OKAY to be put out because of their twisted history of Manga, Hentai, and all that twisted shit.

The Japanese would never put the game in Asia, because it would be trashing orientals period.
Regardless, it's things like this that make me miss the original trilogy even more. I never said they had to kill off Joseph in the intro, or Kenneth via his tape, they chose too. I always thought Carlos was pretty bad ass though, and am glad he's back in Umbrella Chronicles.
I do as well wish some of RE 1.5's ideas went through, like Kendo surviving, Marvin and Annette going through the sewers with Leon.

No one said that kind of nonsense was 'okay', J. It's just that the Japanese, having their own morals and upbringings that differ distinctly from North American culture, do not realise when they offend N. American customs and morals. As Kaliero pointed out, things like this have happened in the past, but by no means should Capcom be slammed because of it.
Things like this happen ALL the time, horror movies are as big joke now about the black guy dying first. Marvin in RE2.

Well of course, they themselves would never make it, and if we did, we'd get slammed by them.

I have not seen many horror movies but I can think of one instance where the black guy dies in the MIDDLE, not FIRST. SAW II.
Blacks aren't detrimental in movies, they're just like everyone else now. Hell, sometimes they recieve special treatment on the silver screen. Bruce and Evan Almighty depicted a black man as GOD.
It doesn't matter because the game will come out anyway, it will sell really well, and reviewers, and players will never care that it's RE4's recycled game play, and why would they, it was great.
This shit happens everyday, and Japan gets glorified for it somehow regardless, and always comes out making a shitload of money. So who cares, I will or won't play the game it doesn't matter.
