Forums - Gaming Discussion - Capcom has a huge announcement for E3

Listening to Weekend Confirmed episode 8 and Garnett Lee (used to be from 1up) and Brian Leahy (used to be from G4) was discussing Capcom finiancial report and the discussion lead to Capcom new strategy of giving outside developers old franchises to make. Garnett drops the bomb and says that Capcom big E3 announcement is going to test this theory. He then ends it by saying he doesn't want to spoil it. I think the bombshell is going to be that Capcom is giving an outside developer the keys to Resident Evil 6.

Is Devil May Cry 5 considered big? Because it might be it.



Honestly Capcom is probably the most over-achieving publisher out there. Every gen they have come up with new franchises and AAA games but this gen they are releasing mediocre ne IPs and milking their old franchises with sub par sequels.

The only 2 must play game I san think of coming out of capcom this gen are Dead Rising and Street Fighter 4...

So I wouldnt hold my breath for any earth shttering announcement.



Resident Evil 6: Now with moar muscles, bullets and boring co-op Who cares about being scary?

Megaman MMORPG: Because everybody loves Megaman and MMORPGs ... right?

Street Fighter XXXtreme mini golf: Play mini golf as Chun Li, Sakura and the other hotties until you unlock tiny swinsuits and micro bikinis for your well detailed 3D model.

Darkstalkers: Yes we remember that franchise.



I don't think Capcom would siphon off RE6 to another developer - that is their surest franchise, it works for all three manufacturers.

Street Fighter or Devil May Cry or something might though.

Resident Evil 6 probably is going to be announced soon though, whether it is at E3 or elsewhere.

I think Move + Resident Evil 5. This time without the awkward controller ...

EDIT * Megaman Legends III would make me a happy gamer.

I agree with your views for Resident Evil but the way he said it seems that the announcement is a huge risk for Capcom.
