But Re4 did well.......I am never going to understand this stuff.
since the rev's specs arent final, and this game is obviously mutli platform, there is always a possibility it could appear on the rev.
Is there even a release date for Revolution? Maybe thats why.errr....no revolution?
True...I see your point.

I really hate the game industry's current wisdom that Nintendo is doomed.
I can almost see capcom drooling in anticipation of making RE games on a good selling system for the first time in 5 years
Yes, RE series was great on the GC, because I happened to have one. But if anyone even BOTHERS to say it would not have sold better on the PS2/xbox, I'm sure half the forum will flame you for me.

How many truly "exclusive" RE titles did the GameCube get? The only one I can think of is Zero, with 4 supposedly coming to PS2 around the end of the year.
There was the REmake, and it looked great, and ports of 2 and 3, but I didn't buy any of them because I had the PS versions.
By the way:

Well, I think that article was written before 2 & 3 were re-re-released.I can find them around pretty easily but the damn things still retail for full price.

first off GREAT! exelsior! or whatever verrry freakin kool and quite expected.
Also to RE4 SUPPOSEDLY coming to PS2? ummm it IS coming to the PS2 with many extras
Ill probably pick this up for the Xbox360 if I can ever afford one before the end of its life-cycle
The "exclusive" deal was just that it would be released for the GC well before any other systems, kinda like the GTA series on the PS2.
And RE1 was redone so much that it basically was a new game, I wish they would do something like that with a lot of games (the rest of the RE series that weren't redone, a lot of the FF and DW series, etc...)

From IGN:
July 20, 2005 - The latest issue if Famitsu is home to first details and screens for Resident Evil 5. As we reported earlier, Capcom is bringing this next generation survival horror title to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, with veteran developer Jun Takeuchi serving as producer.
Since our initial story, we've learned more details on the game. Takeuchi is somewhat vague in his discussion of what we can expect from the title gameplay wise, revealing only that Resident Evil 4, with the wealth of changes made by director Shinji Mikami, caused excitement amongst Capcom's development staff as a whole, particularly those who had worked on Resident Evil for the PlayStation and PlayStation 2. Even with the changes, Takeuchi states, there was no mistake that you were playing Resident Evil. We can apparently expect something that, similarly, maintains the taste of Resident Evil while featuring big changes from the traditional play format.
Images shared by the magazine were taken from a two minute high definition video clip in which the game's main character finds himself in the alleys of a desert city, being chased by a mysterious group of enemies. In describing the setting and content of the game, Takeuchi recalls a scene from the film Black Hawk Down, when a US chopper crashes to the ground and is swarmed by natives. The theme of getting out of a tight corner is a staple of the original Resident Evil, and is something that the development staff wants to work on with RE5.
The video does not actually reveal the nature of the enemies that are pursuing the main character. The primary enemy is a new element to the game and it's currently a closely guarded secret. The enemy are meant to come after you in great numbers, conveying the sense of insanity of hoards of natives that Takeuchi took away from Black Hawk Down. We can apparently expect something along the lines of the primary enemy in Resident Evil 4, who spoke a language that you were unable to understand and were more advanced than the zombies that have appeared in previous RE games. Takeuchi and crew are actually working on ways to make the enemy even more expressive this time around.
The development staff is paying extra attention to the game's environments, with Takeuchi stating that one of the tastes of past Resident Evil games was that of the player walking slowly through a dark and damp environment. This time, we can also expect wider, brighter environments, including scenes of intense sunlight.
As expected of a next generation game, RE5 runs in high definition, and one of the things the development staff wanted to do was use the new visual power at its hands to communicate the sense of atmosphere to the player. The images in the trailer clip are meant to convey a sense of high temperature. In fact, heat is a central theme to the game, with Takeuchi suggesting that when it's particularly hot, you'll want to cool down in a cave.
With regards to main character and background setting, Takeuchi states that we should be able to figure out the main character when we consider that members of the development team that created the original Resident Evil are working on this game. This would suggest that the main character pictured in the magazine is Chris (the bearded character in all the screenshots does resemble an older version of Chris).
Takeuchi won't reveal when we'll be able to play Resident Evil 5, only stating that we'll have to wait until the next generation systems are available. He assures us that out of all of Capcom's game projects, this one is getting the most attention, and this is why development will take some time.
A Capcom representative reveals to the magazine that a Tokyo Game Show showing for Resident Evil 5 is not out of the question. IGN is hoping that, with Sony's PlayStation Meeting press conference scheduled for Thursday afternoon and Microsoft's Xbox Summer scheduled for this coming Monday, we'll get a glimpse even sooner than that.
YEAH CHRIS!!!!! HELLLA YESS its about freakin time hes always been my favorite RE character now let hope claire and the rest of the gang will make appearances also
AND.... tie up all the lose ends that were left from Code Veronica
What u wanna bet this takes place in that city in Europe that you cant type on this board for some freakin reason? that is where claire and Chris were heading at the end of Veronica after all
