Wheres My Money
So far as you play, you pick things up and sell them or you come across money or large gold.If your just starting and do not know yet in order to do more damage you will have to upgrade your weapons. In order to do this you will have to spend money. Where do you get the money you ask. Well you can either save up and take forever, or you can do it vary simple. And again this is for people just starting. Find someone who is playing level 4-1 and beat it with them, then go back and start it over either with someone else or by yourself, I would recommend it the first time by yourself. As you start it off you come to the dock in the cave and get off and say your good bye's to the driver. Go through and as you go through put out all the fire's you can, once you put the flame out you will be able to pick up gems worth about 1,000 to 2,000. Look for anything shiny over head or encased in bone heads. There will be a brief case with a grenade launcher in it. Also there will be three boxes made out of stone, 2 of the 3 will give up 900 for the first one and 700 for the second and the third will be a tiggger for the floor to the next area. When you and your partner pull on the chains attached to the idols they give up a gem each. Defeating the boss before you leave will give you a Soul Gem worth 10, 000.
So when all said and done and you finish the level you should leave with 20,000 to 40,000 each time and a grenade launcher. Do this as many times as needed to get the dough and up grade your weapons.
Also if you play with people that have better weapons then you play a round with them and the next time you go shopping you will find that same item for sale, but just know that all those items you will come across them in the game.

Easy Giant Majimi Kill
As I'm sure you've had trouble with the giant majini, here's an easy kill-first you have to have a magnum, upgrade the firepower twice (required) and upgrade the capacity -then you go on any stage with giant majini and have an easy kill. Note: this trick works only with the s&w m29.

Ammo for Free
If you go into co-op and one player gives the other ammo and then you quit the game, the person who gave the ammo says no to over write and the person receiving says yes. When you go back into the game the person that gave the ammo still has all that they gave and the person that they gave it to also has it. This only works with ammo not guns. Grenades are a good one to do this with to build up and sell for fast cash.

The Perfect Gun
After beating the game you can go to the bonus features and buy unlimited ammo for guns you have maxed out. The magnums have the best firepower on the game and you can kill bosses with five shots or less. The best part is you don't even have to reload.

The Treasure Box
In case any one is wondering how to get the treasure box in the center of the fruit stands in chapter 2-2 (may be the wrong chapter) you need to use a grenade or a grenade launcher to destroy one of the stands. The box only contains a ruby worth about 3, 000 but that still a lot of cash for the beginning of the game.

Easy Pts
The best way that I found to get PTS (the stuff you trade with in the bonus menu) is to repeat the section that you found the easiest. When you beat it it tells you how you did.

Wesker's Teleportation On Mercenaries And Versus
When you choose any of the two weskers on versus or mercenaries you can use his teleportation ability by clicking down the right thumbstick. Also while you are in teleportation mode and targeting at an enemy you can unleash a powerful kick if you press the right thumbstick, and it takes major damage to bosses, but I wouldn't considering doing to the chainsaw majini because he will not move and you'll stop right in front of him after you kicking, causing your chances to get head cut off at a high rate. (warning teleportation will drop your health by a small amount).

Need Ammo?
If you ever run low of ammo just go back and play previous chapters (chapter one works the best) of the game on amateur. Have Chris take all the ammo and only let Sheva use the MG or something like that. And only use the rifle because it can kill most zombies with one shot. Do that enough and you'll have more ammo then you know what to do with.

Reviving Enemy
Just a little hint for you people when you encounter a chainsaw, there's a chance he'll come back to life. There is a way to tell if he's going to revive. After you kill (or supposedly) him if he rolls on his back get ready because he'll be even more dangerous than before. If he falls on his chest then its hes dead for good.

Easy Reaper Kill
If you're getting annoyed by the reapers (big bugs) killing you then here's a tip for you. When it stands up (this is when its dangerous so don't let it get too close) its chest will open revealing a white bubble (i don't really know what it is I think it might be it heart or something) shoot that bubble w/ a magnum or a grenade launcher (exp, flame, or ice'll work) or if you want to do it the expensive way and shoot it w/ an RPG and it will fall on the ground and start squirming and finally die.

Snipers Wanted
In Re5 if you own a sniper rifle here are a few tips to keep you alive in the game: Aiming and shooting at the head isn't always a good idea because those pesky granados might pop out and waste your ammo so aim for the chest area its alot easier, also when up against a horde of zombies (majinis)run to a safe distance buildings, cars, etc. Then pick them of one by one. Be warned your cover maybe compromised to stay alive kill 2 then move kill 2 then run use this strategy and save a lot of herbs and ammo.

Easy Points
If you don't wanna have to play though the story line over and over but just kill zombies, try Mercenaries Mode! You must survive endless zombies for 2mins. Look around for time bonuses to increase time. The more kills you get, the better your score. The better the score, the better the points. On XboxLive, you can play Duo and get loads of points and Both players benifit! Have fun pwning zombies! :D.

Quick And Easy Money & Ammo
Tired of having to redo levels that take forever when you want money quickly? Here's how! NOTE: If on XboxLive, you must decide who's either recieving or givng the items and who's makig the party. If w/o XboxLive, make sure you have 2 profiles. First, start collecting the ammo or item you want (Machine gun ammo, etc. ) For easy ammo or money, make sure you FIRST store enough in your storage to fill ALL the boxes in your inventory. NOTE: For easy money, use rotten eggs. They're 2, 000 a piece. Since you can carry 5 per bundle times 9 slots = 45 eggs times 2, 000N = 90, 000! Once finished, start a new campaign (None specified) with your inventory fill with your duplicated item. Quit and save the game. Then start it up and let your friend join or sign your second profile in. Now start trading the item to the giver. Once they have the items, both save games. Now start back up the campaign again. Now trade the items back to the receiver. BUT! This time, only the receiver saves their game. THE GIVER MUST NOT SAVE THE GAME OR ELSE IT WILL RUIN THE ENTIRE PROCESS! Now quit and start the campaign once more. Let the other profile of friend join and tadah! They should still have their inventory filled with the items or ammo you gave them. Trade the items to the receiver, receiver saves while giver does not and repeat. Best suggested in local. It takes about 2-3mins. TOPS! If you are confused with any part of this, message Emoonal5car on XboxLive.

There in the balcony, on your right, you will see the the emblem. Next, on the same chapter, you will come to a house with no roof. When you look up you'll see the other emblem sitting on the water tower. Also on the same chapter, after you have beat the uroburos monster (the one that killed all of delta team)you will come across a silver case with pistol ammo in it. Walk a little ways and you will see it behind the black fence. In chapter 2-1 it is near the exit door in the very room where you started the mission. You will see it hanging on the wall on your upper right area.

Get All The Eggs
Whilst playing marshlands you will find a little island (north-east of where you start) there is a bunch of chickens there that will lay eggs. When you get there are 2 white eggs on a shelf behind the tower. After this wait for about 5-10mins for the chickens to lay eggs, you should get 1) A golden egg. 2) A brown egg. 3) A white egg 4)A rotten egg (the rotten egg is harder to come by tho and might take you a while to get using this method so I suggest looking around on the other chapters, there are no specific chapters that have rotten eggs on them no matter what you read. (The above is variable, and the times are an estimation).
