But then there comes a game which is just screaming Nintendo. Take Jet Set Radio, pure brilliance, original, fun with a unique style. X-box? X-bloody-box???? Despite bundling it with the console the game still sold like a led ballon retailing at little more than a tenner from some places. On the Gamecube it would have sold "as well" without any sodding bundle.
So it is with great annoyance that we are to miss out on another "NINTENDO" esq. game. This time it is Capcom with Under the Skin.
In under the skin Players take control of an alien called Kozumi who has been sent to Earth to cause mischief. This you achieve by scanning humans and adopting their form and abilities. You can turn into Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine and Nemesis from Resident Evil and even visit Racoon city. It is done in a cel-shaded style (you've never seen resi like this before) and all looks good fun. It is also being made by Production Studio 4 (Resident Evil 4, Killer 7, Viewtiful Joe) but...
PS2 exclusive.
Bah.
