Quote from capcom.

One poster took a shot at Capcom by saying- "Capcom is losing fans. They obviously don't care for their PS3-owner fans." This prompted a quick reply from Sr. Director of Strategic Planning & Research for Capcom Christian Svensson, who is also a frequent contributor on the message boards. His reply?

"Let's see how they feel at the end of next week about us."




THANK YOU CAPCOM ROFL XD.

 im going to laugh if their announcement makes it so that people want to burn capcom down even more.

How long has this game been in development? Of course the PS3 version of any game will get it its clock cleaned by the 360 if the 360 one is a finished version and the PS3 one has only had 3-6 months of development. I would hope this isn't just another freak out because people forget that games don't look finished until they're, well, finished. We just had freakouts over Halo 2.5 and MP1.5 recently so there's no excuse for forgetting it again.

That being said, why should PS3 owners be mad at Capcom? They should either not be mad and just enjoy what they have (not saying they shouldn't desire more, I want RE5 on the Wii after all, just saying no need to get mad) or they should be mad at Sony for making such an overpriced system that it's not selling well enough to justify the expense of making many games for it. Although shareholders should probably be mad. Why is Capcom spending millions porting a game that already maxed out on the 360 in NA and EU to a system who's only selling point is that it can move a few games in Japan where something like Lost Planet isn't popular?

 Well, keep in mind that Capcom made a big deal about how Lost Planet was also used to develop their next-gen engine to be used for easy porting between the 360, PS3 and PC. Since this is essentially a port of the PC version, the cost is probably relatively low to make it for the PS3. Capcom might think that the lower development costs will still allow a relatively low selling PS3 version to make a decent profit. Also, I think Capcom is trying to build brand awareness. This certainly says to me that Lost Planet 2, when it is released, will be a simultaneous multiplatform release. I think they're thought process is that PS3 owners are game starved, and would be willing to pick up a port of a well-received game. Furthermore, I think they're trying to build up the brand in Japan. PS3 is by far a more viable console than the 360 there, and there was probably a decent number of people who may have been interested in the game but was unwillling to purchase a system perceived as being one that has already failed. It's decent sales on 360 also indicate that there is interest there for a game like this. 

Am I the only one who can barely tell a difference between the two? Honestly when glancing between the two, I thought the PS3 version looked slightly better. I will never understand this HD thing.

I don't really see how Capcom is losing fans. True fans of a developer follow the developer and the games, not the consoles, so spare us the "Capcom's fall from grace" rhetoric, as if Capcom is going to someday go out of business because of this travesty or shed a tear over your loss as a valued consumer. But if this is the game we must play in rationalizing your dissapointment in a developer, then the way I see it, for every Sony fan lost they're easily gaining a new Nintendo and MS fan in turn... so I don't see how Capcom is comming up short here.

Legend's pro-MS affinity is more than clear, but that's irrelevant here. Discrediting Legend doesn't change the reality of Sony's situation so don't shoot the messenger to spare your ears the message. I can't say this thread was exactly in the best of taste but there's no arguing Capcom is slipping through Sony's fingers. To those here frustrated with Capcom's lack of Sony support just be glad your getting anything from Capcom instead of nothing at all.

Who cares, lost planet sucked anyway.

Above and beyond that - those pics are terrible for comparison, they are from different levels which had different lighting anyway... the PS3 version doesn't look that bad. 

The PS3 seems really worse comapred to the Xbox360 version ...

What kind of funky glasses/head accessory are you wearing that makes the PS3 version look better? A blindfold?
