Resident Evil 5 Confirmed for Xbox360 and PS3!

Imagine what the Revolution could pull if it only supported 320x240! Pfft, wasting pixels for 480p

that would be amazing .

However we've already had this convo many times. The majority of tvs in the world will still be sdtvs for the rest of the decade .

I don't think I would. I certainly would be pissed off if I had to choose between worse graphics and more content, or less content and better graphics.

would it be worse graphics ? We'd only know it be in a lower res . The graphics i.e models , textures and other things can all be increased

Well there's a point of diminishing returns, but that point isn't 320x480 or 640x480.

But it's the same guy that did RE1, RE2, Onimusha 1 and 2 though! :D Plus uses the RE4 control scheme 8)

Hopefully Shinji Mikami overlooks the project. RE4 not only overhauled the aiming controlling aspect but it also overhauled the whole RE gameplay. Much less of the stupid mindless puzzle solving and more on action. Better weapon management and maps etc. RE1 was fun for its time but things have changed. I'm soooooo glad they ditched that horrible treasure chest inventory thing for RE4. I also liked the dropping of items any place at anytime used in RE0 and RE4.
 
I'm sorry, I know this may be premature, and I know these are blurry as all hell. But these look to be the best Next-gen graphics we've seen yet!! :D
 
I see not one polygon edge on the curved surfaces. 8) Looks like they ditched the pale skin art direction this time around. :)

Well RE4 did the same this generation...well at least the GCN version so... ;)
 
Hey, can a mod try to get clarification on this? Famitsu is a foriegn mag that does NOT release in the U.S.... GAF allows scans of this mag because of that reason. Of course we shouldn't post a scan of a U.S. mag... but a foreign mag like this I think would be okay, because we are not hurting sales in any way. And it falls in a grey area legally since it's not released in the U.S. :)
 
We don't allow scans of any magazines . We are a multi national forum . I know for a fact that I can buy famitsu here in the states because i have many times . I will be buying this issue friday . I also know its avalible in italy as my cousin buys it . These are all sales famitsu will loose out on .

Awesome news. I wonder.. does this open the door for MS to upgrade & port RE 4 to the 360? Or some of the older RE titles?

That would be pretty cool, but I don't know if it's worth it for Capcom. Everyone would have already played RE4 both on GCN and PS2 by the time a Xbox 360 port makes it to the market.
 
yup just look at re1 remake it sold pretty badly and that was at least a few years after the release of the original version

REmake sold pretty well actually at 1.2 million copies, but it was a huge graphical overhaul. RE4 port to Xbox 360 will need to use the RE5 engine if they want to sell over a million copies.
 
Could that be Chris Redfield?

....with a Revolution version soon after. ;)

Hopefully with a few bonus additions. ;)

Like no HD :p

I'd take EDTV resolution with exclusive bonus levels anyday. ;)

This game probably won't ship till 2007. All three next-gen console would be out by then, with PS3 possibly leading the market (in terms of install base), so I see little to no reason why Capcom would want to spend more time (basing that all version would ship close) adding more content on one version to the other. Unless of course they want to add some features to accommodate Revolution's unique feature(s). And Capcom learned from this gen that exclusive business with Nintendo is not the best way to go. Now now, I'm not saying Revolution won't be a hit or anything, but you know what I mean.

As for the screens. The two best looking one seem cinematic (camera angle, no environments). The other with environments are either blur, small, or both. So it's hard to base (graphically) many things from this screens. But of course, I don't doubt Capcom could deliver.

Perhaps. I wouldn't be surprise if they did. Heck, I wouldn't be surprise if they release RE1, RE2, and Nemesis to any of the next-gen platform. :LOL: But please note that I'm talking about a direct port. Not like the remake they did for the GameCube (but of course, they could release RE1 Remake instead of the original).

RE4 port to Xbox 360 will need to use the RE5 engine if they want to sell over a million copies.

You really think so?

I don't know. There is still that somewhat small but probably profitable sector of gamers who just own Xbox and never got to experience RE4.

The game looked so good on the GC, I am sure that if they used the original source art they could make a beautiful RE 4 upgrade with minimal tweeking of the engine. I mean, look at those posters you posted a few posts up, There is just so much beautiful detail in the original artwork & models that was probably lost by downrezzing the game to run in that LBX window on the GCN, and will be diluted even further on the PS2.

I would buy a copy just to play it in 720P widescreen 5.1, and I own the CG version. I guess for the same reasons why I would buy a HD-DVD or BRD of Lord Of The Rings Trilogy with lossless audio, even though I own the DTS DVD's.
 
I see little to no reason why Capcom would want to spend more time (basing that all version would ship close) adding more content on one version to the other.

Under those conditions, I would have to agree, but under those same conditions, Revolution would need more development time due Revolution releasing later. More development time means a release later than the other versions which means more content is possible to offset the fresh to market advantage of the other versions.

Capcom learned from this gen that exclusive business with Nintendo is not the best way to go.

That's a pretty weak argument considering REmake, RE0, and RE4 have sold very well on GCN. Would PS2 exclusivity be any different? Probably not from looking at sales of Capcom games on PS2. Not sure what going multiplatform has to do with Nintendo.

Edit: Look at sales of MGS3 on PS2. Did PS2 exclusivity help it all that much if any?
