Takeuchi says Resident Evil 5 demo reached 4 million downloads, addresses other concerns

Resident Evil 5 Producer Jun Takeuchi tells MTV Multiplayer that the demo has infected over four million consoles worldwide. Capcom previously revealed the demo was downloaded 1.8 million times during its first week on Xbox 360, but the latest figure incorporates the PS3 numbers and downloads in the month since.

Takeuchi also took a moment to talk about concerns brought up by those who played the demo. He states that the staggered couch co-op split-screen was designed to prevent the lead characters from standing in "one column." He continues that people will understand the controls better once they have the full game, and he says they'll respond if any racism issues come up at a later date. RE5 finally shambles onto consoles next month.
