Capcom: Stay tuned on Resi 5 PC

Capcom has told PC gamers to "stay tuned" on the possibility of a PC version of Resident Evil 5.

Resident Evil 5 has so far only been announced for the Xbox 360 and PS3, leaving PC gamers out in the cold.

When asked about the possibility of a PC version of Resident Evil 5, Svensson told VideoGamer.com: "That's a fantastic question. Unfortunately it's one that I can't give you an answer to today. But stay tuned."

may be with the pc version the aim can be faster and better with the mouse, then i will consider buying it

Charmers6318d ago

I doubt it capcom have a history of making the mouse and keyboard practically useless in their games. I imagine they will do the same with Resi5

Marcello6318d ago

Your forgetting that CapCom used to outsource their PC ports until Devil May Cry 4 which they did themselves which was a pretty good port so i am expecting the same with RE5.

We will just have to wait and see.

DeadlyFire6318d ago

RE 4 PC was just X360 version slapped on PC with only X360 controller support or something like that. I hope that is not the case this time around.

evrfighter6318d ago

I wish it was just a port. Just yesterday actually a friend sent me screenshots of the pc vs console port of RE4 and holy crap was it embarrassing. I would never play RE4 on the pc.

hay6318d ago

Add to it dumbed down textures and you'll have RE4 PC.

M337ING6318d ago

Re4 never came out on 360...

TheIneffableBob6318d ago

Resident Evil 4 PC was developed by Ubisoft. It had no mouse support and used PS2 assets instead of the better quality Gamecube assets.

Capcom learned from their mistake with that port and are now are doing ports exclusively in-house. Their Devil May Cry 4 port was VERY good. The SLI-scaling is almost linear, which is quite amazing.

Would be pretty funny if they didn't port it to pc considering they started bragging about being the first japanese developer to join steam. Not to mention they are a member of the PC Gaming Alliance...

Wonder how this will play out.

Capcom's willingness to invest in experiments and scrap them sets them apart form many other developers (Nintendo have a similar methodology). Far too often companies push a game setting or game mechanic that is just not that good and the final product is middling or poor.

I mean 0, 1 and Code Veronica should be way before we get into 5 or 6.

Darkseeker155d ago

5 and 6 are so bad that even Capcom want to pretend they don't exist.

Levii_92155d ago

Dude Code Veronica is bad too but RE5 and 6 were mega successful and to me it makes much more sense for Capcom to do them instead. Nobody cares about Code Veronica except niche fixed camera era RE fans, i bet most modern RE fans probably don't know Code Veronica even exists. Based on all that i don't believe CV remake is coming but we will see i guess.

MehmetAlperTR155d ago (Edited 155d ago )

Actually RE5-6 was not Classic RE game.. They are not even Survival Horror game.. They are just an action game with coop and named by RE... And for me RE Code Veronica was masterpiece.. I remembered the first time i played it in Dreamcast.. It was absouletly excellent game. And specially for RE6.. I was quit from game after the camera shakes when Leon's kick to zombies.. There's a video about RE6 and they are telling the truth about that shitty game https://www.youtube.com/wat... here it is.. Enjoy it..

Neonridr155d ago

people are DYING for a Code Veronica Remake. Not sure who you are talking to, but the die-hard RE fans of the series are very familiar with every entry. That's what it means to be called a die-hard fan.

neutralgamer1992155d ago

Levii

I am sure If they were to remake CV that it 2ont have fixed camera angle. I hope whatever they do they take their time like RE2/4 remakes and not rushed with cut content like RE3 remake

Before they should do RE5 they should go back and remake earlier games. In a perfect scenario we would get CV and RE/Zero before RE5/6

Tapani154d ago

Code Veronica on Dreamcast was absolutely AWESOME.

It makes more sense for them to remake earlier games like Code Veronica. RE5 is a good game though - it's not THAT different from RE4.

RE5 just doesn't really need to remade in general. The co-op element makes it tricky - you'd probably add more moments where Chris is by himself enhance the horror but some would want co-op to stay.

thesoftware730155d ago

RE:5 Was and still is a great game, with hands down the best Merc mode, that I still play from time to time with my brother.

RE:6 blah, I agree, it was awful.

Redgrave155d ago

Other than Code Veronica, 6 is the one ai want to see remade the most only because pretty much everything has to be redone; can't streamline that hot mess.

DarXyde155d ago

6 was pretty bad. 5 just tried too hard in being an action-oriented RE4.

In some fairness to Capcom, 5 was the first Resident Evil on then-new hardware for them (X360 and PS3). And it was pretty damn hard to follow up RE4.

Imagine everyone's surprise when EA of all companies dropped Dead Space.

Alos88154d ago

The first half of 5 wouldn't be too hard to do in the more grounded style the remakes have gone for, but the second half gets pretty silly and uncomfortable at parts.
6 is a wash. You'd have to basically make a whole new game to salvage that one at this point.

__y2jb154d ago

6 is garbage. 5 is excellent.

Hopefully if and when they do a RE5 remake, they give it the RE3 remake treatment, because this is certainly one title that I don't want a faithful remake of.

gerbintosh155d ago

I need a Parasite Eve remake
