Resident Evil 5: Mercenaries What kind of Resident Evil title would it be if it didn't have a Mercenaries type extra mini-game added into the mix right?

Yes a game based on the Showtime show about a serial killer of killers. Let your mind wrap around that for a second. Got it? Good. Even though they might not look all that graphically impressive or even look to be a killer game, pun intended, one thing to keep in mind, this is an iPhone app game. So these visuals are from "cell phone." But some cool things to keep in mind about this is that the developers are trying to keep some of the tech in mind. Read More...

Allowing friends and other users of said PS3 to check them out and even compare. It was a long time waiting for them and being jealous of the XBox for having their system going.
