Shane Kim Presents: Microsoft Comedy Gold

This stuff is hilarious. It’s from the earlier mentioned Game Informer interview with Corporate Vice President of Microsoft Game Studios, Shane Kim.

GI: You’re obviously doing OK in the States, you’re doing great in Europe. Japan, you went in hard with it, you want to show them, "Hey, we’ve got you covered." You made a splash with Blue Dragon, for sure.

Kim: We’ll do it again with Lost Odyssey.

GI: But those are two from one developer.

Kim: Yeah, but here’s the thing: I think one of the most important, subtle announcements at the Xbox 360 briefing is that Resident Evil is coming to Xbox 360. Yes, it’s from Capcom, who’s been a great supporter of us.

GI: But we knew that two years ago.

Kim: What?

GI: Resident Evil. It was shown at TGS two years ago.

Kim: No, but coming to Xbox 360.

GI: Yeah. It was at the press event.

Kim: I don’t think so.

GI: I’m positive. I was there.

Kim: Really?

GI: It was shown at both press conferences.

Kim: That RE5 was coming to…?

GI: Yep.

Kim: I’m going to have to confirm that. That was supposed to be the big announcement.

Comedy gold.
