Why MS Fell Flat at E3: RE5 Was the Megaton

[Goddbless]

GI: You’re obviously doing OK in the States, you’re doing great in Europe. Japan, you went in hard with it, you want to show them, “Hey, we’ve got you covered.” You made a splash with Blue Dragon, for sure.

Kim: We’ll do it again with Lost Odyssey.

GI: But those are two from one developer.

Kim: Yeah, but here’s the thing: I think one of the most important, subtle announcements at the Xbox 360 briefing is that Resident Evil is coming to Xbox 360. Yes, it’s from Capcom, who’s been a great supporter of us.

GI: But we knew that two years ago.

Kim: What?

GI: Resident Evil. It was shown at TGS two years ago.

Kim: No, but coming to Xbox 360.

GI: Yeah. It was at the press event.

Kim: I don’t think so.

GI: I’m positive. I was there.

Kim: Really?

GI: It was shown at both press conferences.

Kim: That RE5 was coming to…?

GI: Yep.

Kim: I’m going to have to confirm that. That was supposed to be the big announcement.

OMG!!! That was hilarious. How could everyone in the company forget that this was confirmed years ago?
