| Onimusha12 said: Resident Evil 4 was no doubt the opus of the Resident Evil series, a complete detour in direction and style but a much needed breath of fresh air. However its director has left Capcom as well for Platinum Games in much the same respect that DMC's director left. Now with the highly anticipated RE5 looming over the horizon, what can we expect from it? With promises of a return to the style of the earlier RE games, will this too turn out to be a dissapointment or lack luster successor? Am I just being overly synical, or do some of you have the where with all to see what I'm seeing here? Is the one-two-punch of losing Clover coupled with the higher investment required for HD gaming wearing down the Capcom we once knew? |
Hum...if anything, people are worried that Capcom is going to stick to the style of RE4. Everything we've seen and heard of RE5 is reminiscent of RE4. The game looks awesome so far.
I do think you are being overly synical. The loss of Clover is sad, but it's not like they are lost to gamers. They are also making an HD game. HD is not ruining capcom. Every developer has games that aren't "game of the year" such as Lost Planet and Dead Rising. Those games were still fun.
Capcom has never produced many game of the years, but they continue to produce quality games.
The lists others have made are full of games that reviewers have seen and been very impressed and excited for.
