New BOWs....and Manuela looks like she'll be another Ashley. Oh how fun. Also...I really dont like Alexia's voice.

Here are some of the more interesting tidbits from the trailer, which I did not want to post on the front page, for those who are trying to avoid spoilers.

Spoiler:

-The zombies can apparently run now, but they're not Crimson Heads.
-There are several new BOWs in the Operation: Javier scenario.
-You can see mutated Mr. X at 2:20 and 2:23.
-At 3:05, you can see Krauser's left arm is bloody and bandaged. Does this mean he wasn't infected with a plaga after all?
-It would seem that yet another new virus is behind the outbreak in South America.

Also, it sounds like Jim Ward is reprising his role as Krauser, unless it's just a soundalike.

[Jill Lover]

Yes... there's something weird in Alexia's voice...

[Vector]

Epic trailer. Operation Javier looks really awesome and I'm pleasantly surprised.

It did sound like Jim Ward, and he sounded awesome. He was a big part of what made Krauser so bad-ass.

Mutated Mr. X...ballin'! G climbing up the elevator shaft...even more ballin'. Alexia looked pretty damn good as well. I'm glad they're keeping a few things quiet...like, how we haven't seen a ton of Chris. I feel like there's a lot more left to be seen. Hopefully it's kept out of trailers.

[Spera01]

Ehhhh, I'm afraid to watch this trailer... Especially after the way RE5's trailers were... I don't care if half the game is a remake, I don't wanna spoil myself by seeing most of it before I even own it...

[Vector]

Watching the gameplay video now. Can't get over how extremely bad-ass and manly Krauser looks.

[DarkMemories]

That gameplay video is actually somewhat creepy (thanks to the music). That's what RE5 should have been.

[jagger916]

I'm... Starting... to like Krauser... Must resist. NOOOOOO!

[CRedfield98]

that trailer was suprisingly good, the new senario looks insane

What was she saying at the end of the trailer? If you are just to be.... something i couldnt really hear it

[Kei_M]

Well, this trailer was a slight disappointment for me...but I guess that might just be because I'm not really a huge fan of Krauser or Leon, but I definitely can't wait to see how this scenario progresses. Manuela looks like she'll have a stronger impact on the plot of 'Operation Javier' than I had originally believed.

I think Manuela said Spoiler:

"if you had just let me die..."

That new BOW looks pretty cool. It's almost like a squid-leech kind of thing. The music playing during the boss segment was amazing. Also...that first zombie was really fucking fast, and yet, it's not a crimson head. Oh boy...I like that. I like that A LOT. I might just need a Wii after all...

[Bianca]

Yes! Jim Ward! I'm stoked!

Oooh, and Manuela sounds like she has herself quite the secret. Her voice is quite adorable, too. It's a shame she's probably destined to die.

The environments in this scenario are very pretty, and I think it sheds a lot of light onto what was the prototype of RE5. So much familiarity between this and what we know about the beta RE5's beta version.

[DarkMemories]

There's like four new BOWS in that trailer and they're all pretty awesome, IMO. Lol at the Spoiler:

zombie piranhas

Also, glad to see the return of the Spoiler:

It's kind of funny how they started out wanting to prove that you could make a horror game set in full daylight and still have it be scary when they were developing RE5, and yet it looks like The Darkside Chronicles, of all things, is going to be a better example of that idea, judging from this trailer.
