More Developers Should Learn From Capcom's Resident Evil Ports

Capcom has made the Resident Evil games widely available, and others developers should do the same for the sake of video game preservation.

100% agree. It was also nice to see a trio of free upgrades after all the paid upgrades and $70 games of recent times.

Let’s see how they price RE4.

CrimsonWing691416d ago

RE4 will be full price. I’m not sure why you think it wouldn’t be.

RickRoland1416d ago

It's just an attempt to dig Sony and TLOU1 Remake

jBlakeeper1416d ago

I think he means whether it will be 60 or 70 dollars.

CrimsonWing691416d ago (Edited 1416d ago )

@jBlakeepeer

It’ll be $70, that’s the next-gen price for games.

The only variation of this I’m seeing are things on Xbox are mostly $60 (not EA or Activision games) everything on PS5 is $70. I don’t believe that will last for Xbox, but next-gen pricing is $70. 100% guarantees this will be $70.

Orchard1416d ago

@Crimson Apologies, I may have been unclear, I meant $60 vs $70 - I'm not expecting it to be sub 'full price'. Will it be $70? I dunno. Village next-gen wasn't, but that was also a cross-gen game whereas RE4 won't be. On the other hand, Capcom has been extremely consumer friendly the past few years, so lets see.

@RickRoland Not everything is about TLOU1. There are other games out there. It sounds like you yourself are insecure about the price.

It will be 70. Let's not kid ourselves here.

@Rick Roland
Yep. And surprise! It's a gamerant article.

Orchard1416d ago

Will it though? Village wasn't. Capcom have yet to launch a $70 game AFAIK.

CrimsonWing691416d ago

See, this is where the industry showed just how scummy this price hike was. There’s absolutely 0 justification for it other than they’re pushing to see what they can get away with. No other media has gone up $10 and I don’t care how they try to justify it, the fact they had two different pricing points is proof it’s complete BS.

Look at this though, last-gen version of Modern Warfare 2 is $70. If anything I can see next-gen versions being $70 and last-gen versions being $60, but once this cross-gen crap is done you’ll be paying that next-gen price for everything.

Orchard1416d ago

The MW2 thing is a complete farce, especially after recent CODs being $60 for last gen - it's even $70 for PC. But also not surprising given it's Bobby Kotick + Activision.

pietro12121415d ago

RE4 will be full price and why wouldn’t it be?

Orchard1415d ago

But will it be $60 or $70? That is the question.

Yes please and support physical as much as possible because once our only option is digital y'all can just imagine how greedy these publishers could become

MadLad1416d ago (Edited 1416d ago )

You can't monetize the people who go the emulation route.

Bigman4k1416d ago (Edited 1416d ago )

I agree but i don't think you should worry about physical games going away anytime soon now maybe once PS6 & Xbox Series X 2 gets here then maybe you should start worrying because i do think at some point Sony & Microsoft will make digital only game systems

neutralgamer19921415d ago

Hopefully it's way further out. The first company to go all digital only will need some great PR because the blowback will be severe

Bigman4k1415d ago

We'll just have to see what happens between now and 5yrs from now

MadLad1416d ago (Edited 1416d ago )

I don't think the proper way to preserve videogames is companies reselling you old content, time and again, every generation or so.
The free upgrades they just rolled out were nice, but these sorts of updates are still a new thing that came from the next gen refreshes and forward. Waiting to see if the majority of the industry just use it as another way to make some profit moving forward.

mikefizzled11416d ago

This article has a tinge of irony considering what they just tried to pull with Resident Evil 2, though they rightly went back on it. Doesn't even mention it, strangely.

wtf, good thing I already played and finished the game when it came out

walken788d ago

Once again hurting the people who purchase and support the game. Meanwhile pirates get the best version. Pathetic.

PRIMORDUS88d ago

There is already someone or a group called voices38, that has been cracking Denuvo games lately. Not the newest games, but getting there.

PRIMORDUS88d ago

I wonder if the pirated copies run better like this one titled here: "Resident Evil 4: Remake - Gold Edition (No Denuvo) (v1.5.0.0 + All DLCs + Bonus Content + MULTi14) (From 50 GB)"

Furesis88d ago

i don't think so? as far as i know even pirated version have denuvo or whatever runing in the background, they just trick it to say that yes this is a legit copy or just skip that process, but im not 100% sure. regardless this is an endless battle where legit consumer "suffer" sometimes. it's not that big of a deal MOST of the times and i understand publishers not wanting people to get access to their games for FREE so, i cant blame them honestly. i do find it odd that they wouldn't just remove DRM completely considering most people already played it? not like they are getting more sales anymore, just lower the price remove DRM but i guess thats why they still have it because they dont want to lower the price. oh well

1nsomniac88d ago (Edited 88d ago )

A perfectly acceptable excuse to pirate the game.

Why would you accept to pay for the game in order for it to install software you don’t want with the intention to make your playing experience worse. Paying for that would be the very definition of stupid.

I’m not against DRM but if it negatively effects a product you’re paying for. Then it’s on them not you.

You know I would have liked this if it was added on for free. A nice substitute for Assignment Ada.
