Wed, 16 May 2012 21:30:00 +0000

In a recent interview with game magazine gamesTM (issue 122), Resident Evil 6 producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi revealed that the game will feature "the best scene in the entire series". What the scene is about, we don't know yet.

Kobayashi-san also talked a bit about the game's three campaigns in the interview. He said that Leon's part of the game focuses on horror, while Chris and Jake's parts focus on action. A "different and unique kind of horror" will be included in Chris and Jake's parts too, though.

The below images are from the mag featuring Sherry:

Resident Evil 6 Is Moving Away From Action

Fri, 11 May 2012 20:45:00 +0000

Resident Evil 6 director, Yoshiaki Hirabayashi, informed that Resident Evil 6's control system has significatly changed since its predecessor, Resident Evil 5.

He explains how Resident Evil 6 won't be as filled with action as the last numbered title, and that they are trying to find the right balance between slow paced survival-horror and intense action.

“We didn’t want to make a straight up action-type control scheme for the game. We’re still trying to make a horror experience.”

Hirabayashi was confident that the confirmed new actions we are able to perform that allows us to shoot from different positions and have more combat options, will make the horror experience more fluid, also that they are necessary to evolve the game and its vast world.

“This is horror as entertainment. To that end I think it was necessary to open up the controls a little, make them smoother, so you could immerse yourself in this world more easily.”

“But that doesn’t mean you’re going to lose control over the player in terms of how they experience this world we’ve created.”

Even after the comments from the Revelations Team stating how newer Resident Evil titles should adopt more action sequences in order to attract more attention from the Western market, Resident Evil 6's director seems to know that the upcoming title should be more than just action and rely more on evolving the old scare elements that made the game successful to begin with.

This statements are a relief to many Resident Evil fans, including myself, that want the series to go back to their roots.

Fri, 11 May 2012 09:40:00 +0000

The Japanese publisher Capcom has released sale predictions for their upcoming titles to be released throughout the next year.

Unsurprisingly their greatest sales expectation is from Resident Evil 6, Capcom hopes it will sell around 7 million copies by the end of the fiscal year in North America, Japan and Europe. This high expectation does not include the PC version of Resident Evil 6 since it hasn't been announced yet.

Capcom also has high hopes for Devil May Cry, even if the release date hasn't been revealed, they are targetting to sell 2 million copies by the end of the fiscal year.

Finally, Dragon's Dogma is expected to sell 1.5 million copies in North America, Japan and Europe, while Lost Planet 3 is targetting 1.4 million sales worldwide, Lost Planet 3 is scheduled to ship in early 2013.

So, what do you think? Do you think these games will live up to their sale expectations? Do you believe Resident Evil 6 can reach those type of sales in that amount of time?
