The newest core entry in Capcom's popular survival series Resident Evil is Resident Evil 6. The game was revealed at today's Tokyo Game Show.
Capcom has released its latest shareholder Q&A, and while there are some smart questions in there, you'll find some not-so-smart ones too.
Capcom is our hero and champion in the gaming industry somehow. Everyone else is straight up Dr Doom
Somehow? You mean the people who put their money into the company and wonder how their money is being used? The hero borrows from others bc they are not using their own capital hence why they are public company. It’s a responsibility to communicate the idea, and having an open mind to bridge various opinion. Branding questions as smart and not smart is a terrible way to focus an article on. Rather, explain the concerns and the response to them intelligently and compassionately.
And most of the questions are what journalists and fans ask as well.
Why not release it this holiday season? Everyone complained it's 2025.
Why is MH Wilds not on Switch? There is currently an article posted here that Capcom abandoned the switch.
Where are the Megaman games? We all want more X games.
Truly terrifying questions...
This story is literally nothing, ? I should have expected as much from this 'source'.
Nothing terrifying and nothing that's an indictment of capitalism.
If you somehow believe a publicly traded company should only have shareholders who know the ins and outs of the business, then you may get a chuckle out of some of the questions asked. In general they are exactly the types of questions you would expect from someone with a stake, who does not understand the business well. Asking questions is surely the way these people learn more about the investments they have made? I wish I hadn't of bothered clicking! :)
Capcom has announced that it has no plans to discontinue the availability of its games via physical media.
Interesting. Then where the fk are the new moster hunter games , physically in north America. Hell I'd even import but the 2nd game is a digital code. What's up capcom?
Obviously they don't mean 100% of their games are going to be physical.
And considering 90% of their sales were digital last year you're lucky they are still releasing physical at all.

90% is ridiculously high. I honestly wouldn't blame them if they decided to go fully digital. I still mostly buy physical copies for the PS5, but for Capcom games, I usually opt for the PC version, so my library is completely digital, so I can sort of understand why is so high. But still.
I generally agree regarding all games.
But I do make a carve-out for indies that don't have the budget for physical releases
Darxyde,
Whats crazy is indies do a better job releasing physically then games from the bigger publishers.
Great news! I'd also like to see their PS VR2 experiences released on physical media.
“Capcom has no pipeline for porting older MT Framework titles to Xbox's modern ERA system, which makes it more expensive to deliver the same titles than it would porting them to PlayStation 4, Switch, or PC.”

did MS just stop supporting MT framework all together? I get that its not supported for Series (same with PS5) but the PS4 and XBO supported it. So, its just odd that there is a PS4 version (which would subsequently run on PS5 via BC) but not an XBO to do the same.
Unless there was some update applied to both XBO/Series that no longer make it compatible and only existing titles are it. I'm getting it for Switch anyways so I'm good. I have the other collections on there and I like to keep things together.

Nah, that's PR talking even with an outdated engine they can still port games from the early 2000's to their so called "max power" hardware.
This is just plain and simple ever since their game pass, is not profitable for Japanese companies to port their games for a montly subscription. They still are rooted into buy and sell their products, in contrast Microsoft is trying to FORCE us to consume gaming as a service and not a product.
The day that gaming industry becomes a service that's when I would most likely leave it and let it rot since that is a walking dead insutry and no longer consumer friendly like. Fortunatly we can still vote with our wallets.
How is MS trying to force you to do anything? You can buy your games. You can subscribe to them. They give you an option to play their games just about any way you choose. Why is that a bad thing?
Game pass is imposed at this point, they insist and that's their big bet for them, hence why they were buying studios to make games for their gamepass library,.Baiscally making gaming a service like Netflix or Disney+. that's anticonsumer and hopefully we still got options.
Resident Evil 6 baby wooooooooooooooo!
I just hope it wont be like RE5
Lets just hope its scary this time 'round.
Please return back to there roots. Horror needs to return and ditch co-op. Its not meant for a core RE title.
Also need to limit all the ammo you can pick up if its going to be a true re survival horror game. I also think they should consider bringing back fixed camera angles but that doesnt bother me.
Please no co op, i want to play alone.
I just googled the coordinates and they end up in Thunder Bay Canada. That's pretty weird
