At the moment, Rumour has it that Microsoft are looking to get Capcom and Sega, just like they did with Rare.
Its not so easy to push these rumours aside when a member of Microsoft (Robbie Bach ?) mentioned that Rare were only to be the first of a number of developers Microsoft are looking to buy.
Has to be said, if Microsoft are successful in adding both Capcom and Sega as exclusive developers, the competition are in real trouble.
Both companies have very strong titles to their names. Especially Sega with their excellent games.
Then of course Capcom are already providing us with Steel Battalion, Capcom Vs SNK and Marvel Vs Capcom and we all know what other games they are responsible for. :-)

Microsoft suck. Seriously, this vertical intergration expansion bloody sucks, if they do buy Sega and/or Capcom, gaming will start to go downhill as a monopolising state will be created.
I never even knew what console it was coming to, either way I don't want to get into all this quarraling.

Yes but the video clips where released years ago, this game has been announced a couple of days after the rumours where announced about Capcom. The fact that it's not coming out for Xbox I think says something about Capcoms attitude towards the Xbox.

So ? Rare had Kameo being developed and also a short vid clip was released for Donkey Kong racing on the GC. That didn't stop the recent deal from happening.

So ? Rare had Kameo being developed and also a short vid clip was released for Donkey Kong racing on the GC. That didn't stop the recent deal from happening.

Ummmmm haven't got a clue what you're on about?
Someting about Nintendo fans creaming themselves over Resident Evil, have you seen the graphics?
Not only Nintendo fans creamed themselves but a hell of a lot of other people did too.

You can bet all you want garbe, but if CAPCOM live up to their usual standard and reputation, I'm afraid you'll be losing that wager. Look at the amount of effort pumped into titles such as Resident Evil, and Devil May Cry.
And there are tons more great titles coming to GC, and you know it :).

Like the fact that they cancelled the Playstation 2 and X-box versions of Skies of Arcadia? :)
