Resident Evil 5, a once greatly anticipated game for me... YEAH! Finally another Resident Evil game, especially for the Playstation!
But No.... Youve gone and sold out to Microsoft, what an absolute waste of a much promising game. Why do you decide now to put the Fifth one in the series on the X Box 360? It doesnt make much sense, only to give more profits for those greedy fat cats at Capcom.
You can pretty much tell its gonna be something that could of been alot better. Cross platforming a series like Resident Evil is absolutely terrible. I do realise that there are a couple of versions of RE on the Wii, which turn out to be abyssmal. Which is why Capcom, you should of learned from your past mistakes.
Biggest mistake ever.

As you already said in your previous post, its all about making Profits, considering that the Xbox360 has sold more units than the PS3 (Up to now that is), its a wise choice to make the game availabe for both consoles. Theyll be collecting most of there profits from Xbox360 considering the units it has managed to sold and then some average to minor profits on the PS3. Either way if the game is good its a win win situation for Capcom. :)

But dont you think it will suffer?
Look what happened to GTAIV, cross platformed, flattened down to some digestable piece of ****.
Just imagine a Resident Evil 5, with a full 50 GB usage on its Blu-Ray disc, then well come back to reality and see some dumbed downed version which could very well have been a masterpiece. Like say MGS4.
Resident Evil REmake proves the entire point moot.

I saw some video on Gametrailers, both of the console versions looked almost identical. Just a minor difference between the 2 consoles, better lightning effects on the xbox360 maybe? But overall the game that truly has utilized the power of PS3 is MGS4 right now. Post of the games that are going to be or are already ported to the Xbox360 look almost identical, well, most of them.

Fair point, but they would look the same as they have been made for more than one platform, therefore they need to make sure it runs smoothly by taking into consideration the different specifications of both the 360 and the PS3.

Sony fanboy upset that RE 5 isnt a PS3 exclusive? makes me chuckle, at the moment games development is too costly for exclusives from 3rd party devs.

besides the point of money and grphics, why now is Xbox 360 having resident evi 5 or anthing to do with the RE series.

Explain how Linger in Shadows is a PS3 exclusive then, when that was made by 3rd party devs.

Because theyd rather make an average game, across two platforms. Just like GTAIV.
Rather than a decent game which would fill up a BluRay disc.
Guess well have to make do.
Capcom made a mistake releasing RE4 only on the GC because it didnt sell that good until it was released on the PS2, it sold 100% better they even released RE4 Special Edition tinted case with a mini guid guess how many people bought that.
Plus the only reason why RE4 was released only on the GC was because of Shinji Mikmai, he even said in offical PS magazine that if RE4 ever becomes a release on the PS2 he would cut his own throat.

You are obviously a person of great intellect but sadly for you I own all 3 systems. But I liked too human and unlike you I dont possesses a chip on my shoulder over Gears Of Resident Evil.

Unsubstantiated crap; it sold a bucket load on the GC. Thats the very reason why it was ported.
Shinji Mikmai, he even said in offical PS magazine that if RE4 ever becomes a release on the PS2 he would cut his own throat.
Nope, he said he would cut off his own head, which in the Japanese meaning meant hed quit his job.
Again, theres too many points in this topic against multi platform with too many contradictions mooting them, namely RE4, REmake and Zero. Not to mention Code V. on the dreamcast. Without any more solid reasons, it does indeed seem like fanboy (or anti-xplatform fanboy) whining.

well i was almost right
Yup.
More food for thought:
RE4 GC sold 1.6 million
RE4 PS2 sold 2 million
RE4 Wii sold 1.3 million
I just wish people would check facts before throwing around imagined scenarios such as Capcom made a mistake releasing RE4 only on the GC because it didnt sell that good until it was released on the PS2, it sold 100% better. :dead:

Hahah, theres always one, being a smart a**
Linger in Shadows is a PS3 exclusive, yet it is made by part time French Developers and Incognito who made WarHawk. Too costly Eh?

Hold your horses there Pinjay, Im not even trying to big up the PS3, all Im saying is that it would be a better game. Im sure the Xbox 360 is great! for a 4 year old console, it definitly is. I just think Capcom have made a big ass mistake.
If Im wrong, and RE5 does appear to be decent, Ill come on here and cyber kiss your all asses.

Nix nay on the horses eh, pin-Capcom R Sellouts. I know you arent bigging up the PS3, and I know what youre saying. Im just pointing out the contradictions to your point, multiplatform has done well for the series ever since 2000; this is nothing new.
Another thing is that your point lynches on the naive assumption that the system with the greatest storage power would in turn provide the best created RE5, which is of course, frankly ridiculous.

Ah crap its like-> getting addicted too a certain game once your addicted youve been forced too move from platform too platform too play your favorite game
in the meen time you own all platforms till the next generation platforms come and the story starts all over from the beginning.
Infact we are all zombies .
OBJECTION!
Only if youre weak willed and give in ;)
(like me)
edit: and Id like to hijack this a sec and state, head over to the RE5 topic, Wesker confirmation and pics.
Owning Ps3,360 and a Wii I dont see the problem in multiplatform games.
Yes these systems do get exclusive games but the excluisvives are gettng less making it harder to choose which console you want.
Resi has never been a platform excluisve anyway so how capcom are sell outs is way beyond me.
Capcoms aim is to bring their games to as many people as possible to maximise their sales and profits as well as making more gamers happy which is multiplatform.
Linger in Shadows may be a excluisve but its down to the developers/publisher to which platform they develope for.
So what if the 360 is coming up to being 3 years old in November the ps2 been going 8 years in japan and 8 years in september, november for USA and europe respectivly.
Get over it fanboy rantings only make me chuckle at how sad they are.
BTW Too Human was the bigest let down of the year for me.
owning all i do prefer the 360 at the moment but thats just my choice.
...GTA IV did poorly? For what I know, it got both high ratings AND sold amazingly well. Maybe you didnt like it, but your opinion differs from the general view people have on it.
Anyway, I dont see anything wrong with going multiplatform. Itll allow more people to enjoy the franchise and I personally believe that the processing power between the PS3 and 360 is hardly as big as you make it sound. For example, Mass Effect came kind of close to Metal Gear 4 graphics-wise.
Though I dont see any point in discussing this with, because your nickname points out you already made up your mind anyway. So this whole thread just seems to exist so that you can be mad in public.

Surely this is a good thing no? As if it was a PS3 exclusive then even if it sold well then it could only sell up to the limited number of PS3 that are in circulation. Whereas by going multi platform they can substanally increase sales. Which means they are more likely to create a RE6 making you happy once again. And think 360 could possibly use more than one disc SHOCK

@Urya
So you think GTAIV wasnt a huge dissapointment? Sure it was an alright next gen game, but they probably could of done alot more.
I didnt make this account to start arguments, Ive just come here to speak my opinion on the matter. Until a few monthes ago I thought that Resident Evil 5 would be a Playstation 3 game, not a multiplatform game.
@Spike74
I dont consider myself a fanboy just because I prefer something over something else. Its like saying I prefer Pepsi to Coke, Oh! I must be a Pepsi Fanboy then
Also, I didnt say that the X box 360 being 3 years old was a bad thing.
@Parjay
Why would it be ridiculous to say that? Your gonna get alot more out of a Blu Ray disc then a HD DVD, all they need to do is figure out how to program the PS3 to its full potential.
To me Resident Evil was always a Playstation game, thats what made it so special. 1, 2, and 3 were all made for the Playstation. Then of course they were remade for other platforms. Im just hugely dissapointed, because multi platform games are hardly anything special. Theyre just chomped down so they can be put on other Consoles, which would usually make them worser off in some cases.

360 does not use HD-DVD for games never has done it was always a optinal extra for films.
Yes you can get more on to a blu-ray disc but it does not automaticly make it better? No. Size is not everything.
How many games on ps3 at the moment use the 25GB single layer never mind 50GB duel layer blu-ray gives? 1 springs to mind and thats MGS 4 which does fill 50GB which is due mainly to the cut scenes which last for ever, then it also has MGO on the disc also.
No you did not say the 360 being 4 years old was a bad thing I just corrected you to it being only 3 years old.
Resident Evil may have started on the playstaion like many other games but its not a playstaion brand game and never has been.
Capcom are indipendent from sony and the playstation brand so Resident Evil has always been a Capcom game who happend to put it on the playstation as that was the only real choice at the time due to other consoles at the time not having the specs to play it.
Your saying your not a fanboy but your posts sugest otherwise.
You have nothing against the 360 but it should not get Resident Evil as its a so called playstation brand game. Sorry but thats reeks of fanboy.
The playstaion made the game special, Capcom made the game special not the playstation.
Dead Rising started on 360 do you see 360 gamers complaing that it going to the Wii? No
Will 360 gamers complain if Dead Rising 2 hits the playstation 3? Doubt it
Lost planrt started on the 360 do you see 360 gamers complaining about the ps3 version? No

Oh and Im fairly sure Little Big Planet is dual layered with 40 GB being used, its only a matter of time before they utilize the Blu Ray Disc to its full potential.
Again, I just prefer the Playstation 3 over the X box 360, If I really felt that strongly about the PS3, my name would probably of been PS3OWNZ360LOL@YOUALL

Nothing wrong with the Wii. Its a lot of fun to play which is what gaming is allabout.
Fairly sure about LBP 40GB, you got proof or a source(spelling)?
If true thats 2 games in what 18-20 months.
You wont see many games fully using blu-ray size potential, that wont happen till the playstaion 4 IMO or RPGs

I too own a Wii, but seriously a game like Dead Rising on the Nintendo Wii? Thats new to me.
I would post a source, but ironically they are on ps3fanboys.com (One for you Spike) and quotes from the developers.
as long as its reliable it does not matter where it comes from.
you dont know about Dead Rising Wii? You been living in a cave or something??
edit
Release Date: Winter
Genre: Zombie Paradise Action
Platform: Wii
Rating: TBC
Developer: Capcomr
Price: TBC
Game Description:
Based on the critically acclaimed Dead RisingTM for the Xbox 360TM video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop follows the harrowing tale of Frank West, an overly zealous freelance journalist on a hunt for the scoop of a lifetime. In pursuit of a juicy lead, he makes his way to the small suburban town of Willamette only to find that it has become overrun by zombies. Frank escapes to the local shopping mall where he thinks he will find safety only to discover its crawling with the un-dead. In order to survive players will have full reign of a realistic shopping centre where an endless supply of real and makeshift weapons will be at their disposal to fight off the flesh-hungry mob. Utilising the Wii remote, this new iteration to the series will take zombie-bashing to a new level as you shake, swing and aim your weapons in an effort to take the enemies down.
The game is split into a series of individual cases, all of which Frank must complete in order to gain vital information that allows him to piece together the truth behind the horrendous epidemic.
Players will be faced with the dilemma of deciding the rescue priority of the Willamette residents who have also sought sanctuary in the mall. Depending on the players skill some may not be as fortunate as others as each rescue needs to be undertaken in a set time period causing players to delay completion of a case in order to save a fellow human. Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drops infectious humour delivers welcome relief from the incessant tide of zombies with players able to dress Frank up in a variety of comedic costumes and take on the undead hordes with a selection of highly ineffective weapons such as a toy sword or a football.
Features:
* Utilises the same engine as Resident Evil 4 Wii edition
* New level of interaction utilizing the Wii remote - aim and fire guns, swing and throw weapons and shake off zombie attacks with added Wii remote functionality
* New enemies exclusive to Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop
* Huge environment - Vast indoor and outdoor mall areas provide a variety of different locations to explore
* Improved save functionality allows for more seamless gameplay
* Hordes of enemies on screen at once resulting in non-stop, pulse pounding action
* Anything in the mall is at Franks disposal for battling the flesh-hungry mob
o Grab environmental objects, such as umbrellas and benches, or store items, such as golf clubs and lawnmowers from the mall shops to use as improvised weapons
o Consume food and drink from one of the malls many restaurants and caf‚s to resume Franks health From Capcom Press page

By the by, you still havent provided an applicable rationalization of your claim that Capcom are sellouts. Capcom make a product, in this case Resident Evil videogames, and sell that product to make a profit. In no way is the term sellout applicable to their business practice of releasing their product on multiple platforms for increased profit.

I do realise I was wrong in that aspect, when I was younger I thought that Resident Evil was a Playstation game, with Capcom as a developer for them. Then all of a sudden I hear RE5 is gonna be on the Xbox 360 (Im like Wtf?, seeing as RE was the only Capcom game Ive brought)

Hardly, I like the Wii, but I cant imagine a game like Dead Rising on it.
Truth is, Resident Evil (as explained in the other thread) has never been an exclusive title, its spanned pretty much every platform for the past two decades.
And im failing to see a problem here, so what if the game is on Xbox360 too? more people will get a chance to play it, enjoy it and hopefully encourage Capcom to make better sequels by the amout of feedback they get from both audiences, most other games have been developed on multiple platforms and many techniques have been developed to compensate the DVDs lack of space over Blu-Ray, and so far, there has been little that one console could not do over the other, aside the cosmetics of graphics, controls and achievements, there is not much else.
To say its going to be flattened is awfully short-sighted, as evident with games such as Devil May Cry 4, Capcom have far more experience in producing multi-platform titles than the jobsworth Letz make movie gamez! companies, who only really care to cash in on the quick money of children eager to see a movie, and are getting to the point where they can utilise the power of the current generation of consoles in order make Multi-platform games as equal as possible, with minimal drawbacks on the features.
Speaking of Devil May Cry 4, I thought any one who was purely against that going multi-platform was an idiot, it didnt soil my nostalgic experience of the game and I was glad it had a fan-base on the Xbox360, which ive seen is clearly a popular console.
Its all about making profits, but how can that ever be deemed as a bad thing? surely the more money they make, the more resources theyll have to make better and more original games allowing everyone to enjoy them.

Im not trying to troll but Spike how would you feel if you were told Gears of War 2 and Halo 3 were been multi-platformed to the PS3? Would you feel a ting of anger or decide oh well because I know many gamers on the 360 would be upset. Im not taking sides and I know capcom are in the business for the money but some people would feel betrayed while others will rejoice. Im neither but try to understand that some people are upset over the situation like what you might feel if the above games I stated were ported. Instead just ignore the post as it usually turns into a flaming thread and Capcom-r-sellouts why are you complaining on this issue? Its already announced so whats the point of complaining? Also no capcom employees see this forum apart from Tenebra and Chompman so your rant falls on deaf ears. p.s where is Chompman?

TBH owning all consoles i dont care what games go on what consoles.
But Gears of war and Halo are Microsoft games, Resident Evil was never a Sony game so you cant realy use those games as a valid argument anyway.
What I am gutterd about is Sony lossing the F1 licence as Studio 33 aka Studio Liverpool have always made the better F1 games in the past and with activision using the Dirt game engine on the new F1 seems a bit strange and they are making arcade based unlike the superior Sony sim version.
That is the only game I am sad to see any companey/console excluisvely loose.
Deaf ears? Sorry, Im confused - finally you have a dedicated community person (me), my ears still work fine. I do take gamers comments and escalate them if there is a solid point to be taken to development.
Im totally puzzled about the argument here. As a gamer (hardcore gamer for the past *cough* 20 years +) I honestly couldnt care less if a game is platform exclusive or not. X360/PS3 offer more or less the same experience apart from the gamerpoints business. Wii is a completely different design, experience and development and therefore the same title is totally different on that platform, its mostly treated as a different game. The same applies to portable consoles.
So, please, explain what the issue is because all I can see is a peculiar need to deprive other console owners of their pleasure to choose what game to play, and I honestly cant find any reasonable motives for this.
As a gamer, my priority is to play a solid, entertaining game. As somebody working in gaming, Id like games to be enjoyed by as many people as possible, without forcing them to invest in all existing consoles.
How does multi-platform affect your game experience?

So the fact every major Capcom game in the future will be multiplatform must have been like a corkscrew in the heart. Then twisted. I can only really see the reason not to do it in order to focus on the one version, exploiting that one system. Takes slightly longer to do with more then one version being made. Also at this stage developers are still going to take their time to push the PS3 further and further. In the end more, more people get to play, more money to use in future development, easier to secure development of odd or not so popular type of games (ie. 2D games) without going broke.

I know Gears of War and Halo are microsoft owned just using them as examples:lol: Im not worryed if Resident Evil is ported as this increases the chance of yet another resident evil being launched. Sorry Tenebra if I offened you just trying to make a point to Capcom-R-Sellouts that no other capcom employees are on this site apart from you and Chompman.

Im sure its been said before, but the Xbox has superior online capabilities, which facilitates the drop in drop out co-op feature.
In addition, the game is still being released for PS3, so I dont know why its an issue?

Im going to just quote what i said on the RE forum if thats ok with everybody?
To leave it on the Playstation, where it originally belonged and prospered
This is gonna be another GTAIV :cry:
RE0 - GC, Wii
RE1 - PS, GC, PC, DS, Wii
RE2 - PS, PC, GC, N64, Game.com, DC
RE3 - PS, PC, GC, DC
RE4 - PS2, GC, Wii, PC
CV/CVX - DC, GC, PS2
The series has never been exclusive to the Playstation, and it was actually thanks to the GameCube that the RE series hit off again.
The RE franchise was dieing, and the re-invention for the GameCube is what relaunched the series to the success that it has now. REmake and RE4 are critically acclaimed titles.
Dont make useless and absurd claims about RE around a RE forum unless you know they are specifically true.
Capcom constantly release the titles multiplatform, going for what is best for the series.
The GC offered power and a new audience over the PS2 (he Xbox was untrustworthy at that point in time, being the newcomer). As for the latest leap, they arent going for power, they are instead going for the largest target audience.
Capcom will make more money by releasing RE5 on the PS3 and 360. Exclusivly releaseing for the PS3 is a stupid move for a company that has consistently shown overwhelming support for all consoles.
