Sheva Alomar a lefty?

Heres another change in RE5. Sheva is left handed! That's right. I was playing Co-op with a friend the other day and noticed that Sheva carries her weapon oppositely to Chris and (as far as I know) any other Resident Evil protagonist in the past. Are there any others who are left handed? Will the left handed thing throw you off when playing as Sheva?

No, Jill was left handed, just kidding, Iam sure that you would catch that GL.

No there is no one else that is left handed so far, and I don't think that her being left-handed is going to bother me too much since I am not planning on using her, Chris all the way.

To play Co-op with a friend one of you has to play as Sheva. I'm not sure if there is a point in the game when you have to or get the choice to switch between roles, sort of like the playing as Claire or Leon in RE2, perhaps?

Who knows, they might even do a switching thing like in RE0, but either way I would prefer to just use Chris, I am sure that I will try Sheva out, but mainly just Chris.

True, Chris has always been somewhat of a hero, hasn't he? I'm sure you've read this before but people are saying that in 5 he looks as though he is on steroids, his arms are huge! From videos I've seen, he's not all that buff in the first game.

That is right, he wasn't that buff in the 1st game, in Code Veronica although he wasn't buff, you could see a little more than in the 1st, it looks like in RE5 he has naturally taken off from there, I think that it fits him well and that he isn't on steriods, but most of the time when people say that they are just joking anyway.

Yeah, I noticed her being left-handed. Not really an issue for me, though, because I'm ambidextrous in RL and can shoot accurately from both shoulders.

That, and I hadn't any plans to play co-op.

I will try the co-op out, but I am just hoping that when she is played by the computer, that she is more useful than the people in Outbreak.

Well, I know I've had to rescue her more times than I can count in the demo...

Yes, she is always the reason I lose. I've never actually died but she has been killed many times when I've played the demo at my friend's house.

yeah I know how you feel with Outbreak...the AI was VERY WEAK

Well, I actually tried playing as Sheva yesterday, and I have to admit, it was quite difficult. It's like everything is flipped around.

It seems like it would be wierd, and I remember just playing the way that the girl characters feeled was very different, when playing as Ada she felt really strange in RE4, maybe it was how she had her hands down instead of holding the gun up and ready, but whatever it was it was different....

Yeah, it's strange, but in RE5 Chris holds his gun up by his head like Leon, and Sheva down by her side like Ada. The weird thing about playing as Sheva though is the fact that because she is a lefty, the camera angle is different than the one on Chris, and therefore your HUD is on the left side of the screen, as opposed to the normal right.
I'd post a reference picture but I can't find any...
