Capcom, Capcom, where do we even begin? This generation Capcom has been nothing but appalling to many gamers through out the world. Not only ripping them off with DLC but also releasing 7 versions of the same game in so little time. The million dollar question is, how far is a gamer willing to go and continue supporting Capcom?
One of the highlights of FanimeCon 2025 was the Capcom cosplay gathering.
Capcom has removed GFWL from PC versions of Lost Planet 1 and 2 as well as other titles on Steam alongside support for online features.
The earnings reports of Capcom's Fiscal year 2024 showcase the growth of PC over console, with 60% of game sales being made on the former.
What’s interesting is that, given how well their games sell, it’s very likely most of them fall into the 25/75 revenue split bracket. The larger ones, like Monster Hunter, are in the 20/80 bracket.
So even accounting for the vastly superior regional pricing on PC, I wouldn’t be surprised if revenue-wise from digital sales, both platforms are close, or if PC is ahead as well.
Yes PC is the biggest platform and it has definitely improved as a home console of sort plug and play. It's the only platform with actual freedom for gamers with modding. I was a console gamer for over 38 years and now I only play on Pc. Whether you are buying pre-built or building it yourself it's now easier than ever before to jump in
And my experience with pc gamers has been excellent, they are helpful with any questions on pc boards
As a gamer who also loves replaying his old favorite titles, possibly with a few mods as well, I can’t imagine ever getting another console.
They spoke about resident evil and monster hunter I would actually find the monster hunter breakdown more interesting tbh as I've always felt like this game would be at home on PC
but for resident evil it's always felt like a PlayStation mainstay despite having exclusivity elsewhere likely because it was where I first played it. The game feels like it's begging to be played lights off in the loungeroom late at night or also in VR I've never been as scared as I was playing re7 in VR
Is this really suprising? Looking at the evolution of the Switch, X|S and Playstation 5?
The biggest cause is probably the lack of game purchases on the Xbox platform. Also keep in mind this is only digital sales so there is a chunk of sales not being shown here.
This is true, why do gamers continue to support them knowing they're getting ripped off with each newer game edition?
I'm glad to be the proud owner of exactly ZERO capcom games this past year. Last game I played was Lost Planet 2.
I'll probably end up buying Street Fighter X Tekken, only because of Tekken, and DmC, because of Ninja Theory.
I won't. They've made nothing but horrible decisions of late, cancelling megaman, overpricing the Resi HD remakes and actively encouraging Ninja Theory to create Dante May Cry.
I stopped buying Capcom games after the first rumors ("there will be a Super SFIV", "SSF Arcade", "Super here and there", "Ultimate whatever")about all of those upgrades TO PAY. If i bought an euro 50 game (Super Strret fighter IV for example), then i have to spend euro 15 or so to upgrade it. If i wait i pay those euro 50 for the game + upgrade. But there will be another update, so.... i'm waiting for the SFIV saga to be completely upgraded and on a single DVD/BD, in that moment i'll think about the purchase.
Same thing for the other games, like Marvel VS Capcom 3.... i knew they were going to release a new "addon"....
The only Capcom games I have is Okmai and RE4 on Wii.
