History suggests Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles could prove surprising

this is going to be my last post about Capcom and Darkside Chronicles for a while. I've come to the conclusion that trying to talk rationally about this is just banging your head against a wall.

RE 5 was announced for HD consoles long before the Revolution was even revealed, and there is no reason in hell why Capcom would have wanted to keep their RE franchise on a Nintendo console at the time, let alone when it was revealed that the Wii wouldn't have anywhere near the processing power to allow Capcom's most technologically dependent franchise compete in the tech department. But instead Capcom made a fantastic game with a high level of polish that played to the Wii's strengths while offering tons of RE fanservice and reinvigorated the Rail Shooter Genre.

And now that they're announcing the obvious follow up to that same successful and enjoyable game, people are screaming bloody murder about it. It's a good thing people don't actually listen to nerds on the internet, or Capcom would throw up their hands (or just the middle finger) and tell Wii owners to go to hell.

When people stop being so silly and we can safely talk about what is sure to be an awesome game, I'll return to the subject. But really guys, you're being pretty asinine.

 

EDIT - wait a sec... this thread is actually pretty good for that kind of thing. Maybe there's still hope.

Ya damn right!
