Resident Evil 5 goes viral

A new Resident Evil 5 viral blog appears.

It's more and more common these days to raise the profile of a video game by creating hidden websites, or character blogs. Capcom has moulded one especially for the upcoming Resident Evil 5, featuring a Mining Foreman named Adam.

Adam is 28-years-old and works in Kijuju, Africa. As he explains on his blog, things are already starting to get creepy;

"I saw something pretty disgusting today. I don't know if I can even bring myself to describe it.

"I was walking down one of the back streets in Kijuju, and I saw a dead dog lying there. I've seen dead animals here and there before, so that in and of itself wasn't so shocking.

"This time, however, the dog was missing its entire head! I don't know who or what decapitated it, but whatever took the dog's head off didn't leave it on the ground. It was just not there. Why would someone just want the head of a dog? And did they take it before or after it died/was killed?"

Apart from this, Adam, whose interests include women, alcohol and "any game that involves cards," appears to be oblivious to the impending danger. Visit Adam's blog and experience Kijuju by following this hyperlink.
