I'm fairly certain (but not 100%) that the creatures in RE5 are another strain of the Las Plagas virus from RE4. I assumed that [spoilers]Wesker acquired the sample and is using it to continue testing to create super-humans he can control or some such nonsense.[/spoilers]
Anyway, played the demo solo and with a friend. Definitely found it to be more enjoyable co-op, as I didn't have to keep pressing "B" to call Sheva to me so she wouldn't die. I certainly found it fun, and while not scary it was rather tense at times (which resulted in yelling, which is also very fun with co-op). I do hope they polish a lot of the animations though. Some look too stiff, and things like Chris's "Stomp" action which I assume I'll be seeing a lot just don't have that level of "oomph" they should. Still, thoroughly enjoyed the demo levels and am definitely looking forward to the release.
