Capcom confirms official E3 2008 lineup photo

E3 is just around the corner, and I prepare my body for long days of work and longer nights of possible alcohol poisoning, I find that all the details on the event are hitting hard and fast. It's like Christmas, except I get to be drunk with a larger group of people and we talk about videogames all day. Cheers!

Capcom has just confirmed their E3 2008 lineup via the Capcom Unity Blog,and there are some exciting offerings, including Street Fighter IV, Resident Evil 5 and the hotly anticipated Mega Man 9.You can also expect a gander at Dark Void, Bionic Commando, Moto GP 08', Neopets Puzzle Adventure, Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, Plunder and Bionic Commando Rearmed.

As if that onslaught wasn't enough, Unity Blog also mentions Flock, a new super secret project that will be debuting at this year's show. What did I think of when I read this news? Not an exciting new Capcom title, but Polar Bear Flocke instead (and how much I'd like a videogame featuring him). I know, I'm a dweeb.

In all honesty, I want to play it all, but my retro leanings make me most excited for Mega Man 9. We'll have full coverage on that and all the other titles next week during E3, so stay tuned. Bring food and a bucket for bathroom purposes, as you may find yourself glued to the computer for a while.

Hooray for Capcom!

An action Resident Evil and a real Mega Man in the same place as a NEW Bionic Commando, who doesn't want.

Oh and maybe some people may have heard about Street Fighter IV.

So that either leaves Resident Evil 5 or Street Fighter 4 or both as the secrets games on the Wii. Don't disappoint the market leader Capcom.

I made a polar-bear-ish game a couple years ago, before all the Knut and Flockie mania hit.. It is a beverage game, but features our lil'mascot, (we've used since we made games in Second Life).

Only thing on there for me is RE5 Bionic Commando Rearmed. SF and MM just aren't doing it for me anymore (well... never with MM).

That Bear is so cute!

@SWMP
We'll probably have to wait like 2 years to see it, and that's just the US, us in the UK will have to wait even longer!
PW3 isn't even out here yet but AJ is out. Crazy Capcom.

@Justice
I remember hearing that it should be out in Japan late 08, so the US should at hopefully sometime in mid 09. Who knows when in Europe though :P

My web browser is called Flock. Lulz. I hope it's a game that has to do with social networking only available to Flock users.

@scottoid: Two Stupid Dogs. FTFW.

And I'm saddened at the complete lack of anything combining "U.S." and "Tatsunoko VS. Capcom."
