Famitsu has been wrong in the past, so I refuse to believe it until I hear some official news. Even so, it doesn't matter, because Mikami is gone and I'll own all three new systems.

Well, I've said it many times. Revolution will be too different for ports of games from "normal" game systems. Likely, they'll get absoultely no third party support and Gamecube was the last boat for any third party games of relevence. I don't care. Gamers will buy it for Nintendo's games unless they fu*k the whole mess up, which they won't.

And besides, who didn't see this coming anyway? Nintendo and Capcom will probobly never work together again after they betrayl and backstabbing this gen. Frankly, this is to be expected. It's happened time and time again throughout the lst 10 years. Nintendo and Capcom are done, finshed, fineto, nada, zilch, ect.

And besides, no Mikimi, no $$$. I'm not buying some sh*t with Resident Evil's name just because it's got next gen graphics no more than I'd buy a Mario game developed by Retro. It's not right, and the game is just going to be a graphics hound piece of software with a name and no guidence from it's founder whatsoever. I wouldn't be suprised if Capcom frmed out development to Korea or some US software house. RE5 is about $$$ alone, and there's no creative side to it.

Anyways, I saw this coming the moment Capcom fu*ked Nintendo this year. They're done and that's that. I'm buying Rev for NIntendo's software, Retro, Camelot, Tokyo Nintendo, NIn STI, Sega, maybe some good stuff from Ubisoft and anyone else who takes the effort to try something new ect, and 360 for the Microsoft, Bungie, and Rare, and maybe some good third party titles (Sega, Namco, Tecmo). Not for some half baked RE cash cow with no Mikimi. Resident Evil was done for me waaaaaaay before this announcement. It was done when he left because I know the suits at Capcom have no respect for art whatsoever.

Whoa there. Whoa. Back that up. You can't predict that RE5 will be for nothing but money. That sounds like the fanboy talking again. Final Fantasy X's soundtrack wasn't produced by Nobuo Uetmasu, and it was really good. You can't know for sure until you see it for yourself.

I'm not surprised either. Virtually no 3rd party games have been announced for Revolution (besides Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles). And this isn't the first time Capcom screwed Nintendo over. They took Viewtiful Joe, Killer 7, and RE4's exclusivity away from Nintendo and gave GCN a piss poor version of Mega Man Aniverssary Collection with ****ed up controls.

Well....RE loosing Mikimi is like Nintendo loosing Miyamoto. It's like loosing the very heart of the operation.

I don't see any fanboy in it because I'll have a 360. I could buy it if I wanted. If that whole RE4 exclusivity mess had just been about the console crap, I'd say "fu*k Capcom", but I'd keep playing Resident Evil anyway. You don't blame the game and it's designers for the decisions of their boss. You blame the boss, and keep enjoying the game.

The problem is, RE4 is a modern masterpiece. An "Ocarina" of sorts. It's just one of those games that will always be remembered, and not just for it's graphics (not that they wern't damn good), but that's because Mikimi poured everything into it. I just don't know of anyone else at Capcom who could do that. I think they've already ran everyone else off worth keeping.

You're right. I should hold judgement for the game until I see it. But without Mikimi, I feel bad things about the future of the series. The NIntendo ripoff deal has nothing to do with that. Never did.

I can understand how you feel about no Mikami swaying your take on the new game, but you really have to try and have an open mind about what the new development team has in store for the continuation of the series. I say if they f*ck up RE5, then it's probably safe to say goodbye to the franchise. I really hope they don't, but they have a lot to live up to after the masterpiece known as RE4. Those pictures look really nice, though. I'm a real graphics whore sometimes...

Well, I'll hold judgement until something comes of it. Those are just alpha screens. I hope to god they don't screw it up. RE4 was just so good. Just one of those games you feel privilidged to play.

well several members of Production Studio 4 left to work at Clover after RE4 was announced for PS2. I doubt they'll ever get involved in another RE game. And I don't think Mikami is ever going to forgive Capcom. He even said he would cut off his own head if RE4 went to PS2. That's how serious he was.

The last game I know of that he worked on is Killer 7. And I doubt he's working on Okami seeing as it's a PS2 title (and he publicly stated how he hates Sony)

Yeah but he's wearing the exact same thing Leon did in RE 4. That's why I say that. Maybe he's another US agent? Maybe he's a new character? Or maybe he's that loser from Dead AIM because he kinda looks like him from what I remember

Either or I have a feeling that those screens mean ****. Like with RE 4 they will change it

I thought Okami was a Clover only project, guess I was wrong....

TMB, do you really don't know what the "Nintendo On" is? (sorry for the off-topic-ness)

Well, I know what they rumors say it is, but seeing as those are rumors, no one knows what it really is.

I know what the rumor said if that's what you mean.
