Forums - Gaming - Capcom reveals the name of one 'secret projects' (or at least the codename)

'Flock' revealed as one of Capcom's mystery E3 titles

Capcom has posted a list of titles it will be showing off at this year's E3 expo on its official blog. The roster contains the usual subjects – Bionic Commando, Resident Evil 5, Street Fighter IV – but, as we reported last month, the company will have a couple of surprises in store for attendees.

We now know that one of them is titled Flock, and is, as described by Capcom, a "new super-secret project." Well, it's not that secret if we know its name. Still, it's an odd name ... one that conjures up concepts such as social networking or file sharing, not games. We'd normally say it's a working title, but Capcom's update doesn't list it as such.

Its most recent E3 lineup also includes Mega Man 9 and the previously unveiled Spyborgs. Neither were on the earlier list, so either could be the second "Capcom Project #2" it teased. Or, if you're really into conspiracy theories, neither is, and there's still one secret to be revealed. We like surprises, so we're pinning our hopes on that being the case.

Well, since the Wii game is known to be a 'surprising take on a next-gen favourite', either 'Flock' is secret project #2, or it's a codename representing some aspect of gameplay.  Dead Rising?  Flock of zombies, anyone?


Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I still insist the 'surprising take on a next-gen favourite' is a Resident Evil 5 spinoff.



Well, the pic is of A Flock of Seagulls.

Seagulls = birds.

Evil birds appear a lot in the Resident Evil games.

"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

Do u get to kill Flock of Seagulls in GTA Miami?



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

It's the spiritual sequel to Duck Hunt!
