Forums - Gaming - Capcom Intends To Turn Resident Evil Into Call Of Duty

Didn't care much for RE4 or RE5 so I am sure I won't care for this one either.

I believe the last RE I truly enjoyed was RE3.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

Go figure. From whats been said lately and as a big RE fan, RE6 will not be a day 1 purchase.

Same for me... haven't owned an RE game since PS1 days...  Resident Evil 5 was given to me, because the original owner got bored with it, so, that doesn't really count..



First the cancellation of Megaman Legends 3, then Megaman Universe, and now the Resident Evil series may get ruined...

Well must wait for re6 to come out to find out what happens.



           

How horrible. A COMPANY stops making something that doesn't sell. How dare they try to stay in business



/facepalm

They didn't say that. They said they need to make it as successful as COD and that means taking the franchise more towards action.

It doesn't necessarily mean the game will be adding killstreaks and perks or the campaign will be a clone of MW3.

NOOO :(

I hope not, even if they do with the main series (I hope the storyline stays), pretty sure spinoffs can be made like Revelations.


I think they are just tired of the sales. Capcom wants some big numbers. Call of Duty gets those big numbers. I am sure that a lot of Developers are very envious of that franchise.


The problem is they dont understand that people who play Call of Duty dont play anything else.
Capcom could copy Call of Duty 1:1 and those people wouldn't care and neither would they for something different even if its better.
Just look at Battlefield 3 - In EVERY Term better than every Call of Duty ever made > "No one" cares.They just want their same game every year.
And Resident Evil is from Japan - If you want to get Call of Duty Fans you have to be from the USA and of course favor the Xbox.All that won't happen.

Capcom is pissing their real fanbase off and won't get any new people for their Resident Evil Franchise.


Such ignorance isn't surprising from a new user like yourself.

Look at my games collection. Not only do I play Call of Duty(and daily) but I play every genre there is. I play Resident Evil, I play Final Fantasy and I play Uncharted and God of War. I play everything. Call of Duty is the most addicting and the most fun. This is why people "buy the same game every year".

No, Battlefield isn't "better in every way". Its a PC game ported to a console.(It's obvious from the menus). Call of Duty games are made specifically for consoles and consumers notice. It's why the almost 2 year old Black Ops is played more than the new BF3 on Xbox Live.



well they might want to start by getting a dev. that can actually make a creditable shooter like Insomniac, Epic, Platinum games, Crytec just to name a few.

slant6 - any publisher=saved money and added profits. and that's free advice.

Maybe Robert Bowling got an offer from Capcom. Don't really care about that much about this franchise. Also rule to buy any capcom product is wait for the super awesome super greatest edition version a few months after the original one.



just Capcom being greedy, WHY must RE do COD numbers?? WHats the point?? RE will never get that popular, actual FPSs dont touch COD numbers.
