Capcom wants Resident Evil 6 out soon, so do we photo

It's been a little over a year since Resident Evil 5 was first released. Can we get another Resident Evil already? Damn, Capcom… what is the hold up here?!?!

Okay, so maybe that's going a little overboard. We can wait; it can take its time, as long as it turns out great. But in a recent interview with Spanish gaming site 3D Juegos, Capcom's Keiji Inafune hints that the publisher is as eager to get it out as we are to get our hands on it.

"Due to the great success that Resident Evil 5 had for us, we want that Resident Evil 6 come out to the market as fast as possible," he said. "In fact, you will have news about this from Capcom shortly."

Oh, will we now? With Tokyo Game Show right around the corner (and you know how much the Japanese love them some Biohazard), we'll be keeping yourselves up at night with anticipation.

Dead Rising, Mega Man, DMC, Onimusha… ¿Resident Evil 6? Charlamos con Keiji Inafune.
[3D Juegos - Thanks, Miles!]

As long as they don't forget their roots on this one...as in less car chases and action scenes. Gimmie tense jump out of your seats moments.

Dogs+window in RE2 = Change underwear.

RE5 was a soild game but it didn't seem like the RE that I grew up to love.

As a big fan of RE4 and RE5 this sounds like good news! And I'm kind of a budding fan of the older stuff. I just recently played the first one on PSN, and I look forward to playing 2 and 3. Sooooo, bring it on! I hope that Wesker returns in a silly fashion.

At this point I'm so hard up for a decent RE game that I'd take a carbon copy of RE5 as long as it had some sort of well though out co-op experience or a smexy female character to play with/as. Oh, and you know, zombies too. Ah, how my expectations of the series have become skewed over the years. XD

I'll be interested when I can walk and shoot at the same time. Y'know. Like Dead Space, that one game that totally upstaged RE5

Geez. Why not just call it Resident Evil 2011, 2012, etc. already?

Nonononono. Please, Capcom, hold your horses... There are too many RE4-inspired games out there, like it was with the original RE. Think of something else...
and hire me for an Ultimate Resident Evil Collection HD, please -_- I promise you, it will sell millions. millions

Is that all? I thought it had been out way longer. I remember picking it up around Christmas and feeling like I was super late to the party. I'm always down for some more RE. As much as I appreciate the series' roots if they're going to continue in the action-y vein I think walking and shooting simultaneously might not be a bad idea. Even just a slow walk while aiming would be ok. I liked RE5 just fine and the controls didn't bother me really, but... I wouldn't mind a little improvement either...

I was going to say "inb4complainingaboutnorunningandshooting," but I see I'm too late.

There was nothing wrong without being able to run and shoot. You just had to be good at the game and you were fine.

Am I one of the few people who didn't really like RE5 all the much. Overall good game, but just didn't feel like an RE anymore.

I can tell Resident Evil will go downhill much in the same way Need for Speed did. I'll stick with Dead Space.

i hated re5 so much. the stories of the older games may not have been award winning but at least they made sense. re5 just felt like capcom was making stuff up as they went along. and the pacing was horrible. i used to be an "lolhardcoar" RE fan but sense re4 the series has just been.......ugh. at least re4 TRIED to be scary. re5 just took the safe route. if re6 really is a complete reboot it better be worth it. dear god PLEASE take time when developing it capcom!


also ZOMBIES! DO WANT

I don't have many expectations. It took Capcom about 7 RE games to realize the formula was stale before changing it for 4, so I think we have awhile to go before another good RE game comes along. By the way, 5 sucked.

Awesome I love re, 5 is my favorite. Hope it continues where 5 left off way to many loose ends still. Also would love to see it have a mp component based off outbreak. Have the so and mp be developed at the same time but with different teams kinda like bioshock 2. But personally I want a Dino crisis 4

They're rushing the game out, and they think that RE5 was great? Bad news all over.

Given what they did with 5, they should just give up the pretense and make it a 4-player coop game where you shoot monsters to win new weapons and titles, just like LP2.

@PappaDukes: He only says that nobody ever ask him about Onimusha saga (seems like everyone ask about RE, Megaman, etc; but never about Onimusha) except for the Spanish people (they seems fond to the franchise) And he says (kinda jokingly) that if a Onimusha new game is made, it could be set on Spain.

And that's all. I was kinda expecting a confirmation or teaser of a new game u,u

I couldn't stomach any of the REs before RE4 simply because the controls are nothing short of masochistic. Even the RE5 controls are grossly inadequate compared to other games from the same time frame. I'd really like to seem them buck the tank controls. If they could do something with Dead Space controls and more suspense I'd be a happy gamer.

I liked RE5 as it was an entertaining co-op experience, but I'd really prefer it if RE6 returned to something more akin to RE4, since we're probably never going to get another claustrophobic mansion to crawl around in with tank controls again.

@ Shin Oni
Style of gameplay should feel balanced. Classic RE felt pretty much balanced - you couldn't move and aim, but you had auto-aim and wasn't rushed by dozens of enemies at the same time.

I loved RE4 and played it to death, thats why i hated RE5, i wanted something new not more of the same. What i really want to see is the return of T-virus zombies and the ability to move while shooting, i found dead space scary without it limiting my mobility.

Well I'm hoping that they ban the co-op. Resident Evil is not a co-op game DAMMIT!!!. Also, Sheva is one of the dumbest AIs I'd ever meet in videogames.

I agree with Klarden. RE5 controls are so cumbersome they handicap your ability to react to changing scenarios. There is a problem if I can assess a situation and determine the best response, yet I still take damage because my avatar can only do one thing at a time. The M.O. for almost every RE game is to totally disengage from combat so you can reload, change weapons, heal, etc. How is that a good mechanic?

I hope they put zombies in this game and make it more scarier and more survival. I didnt like Resident evil 4 nor 5. I could play through resident evil 4 atleast, but 5... oh god it sucked.

And i mean REAL zombies (T-virus), not this mutated things that looks like regular people with rabies.

After how laughably bad RE5 was, I couldn't care less whether another RE game is even released, let alone any time soon.

They need to just lay the old cast to rest. Start a reboot and call it something else, and just make it good. That old series is just too worn out. Wesker is dead. Let it be.

I'd rather they take their time to remember their survival horror roots with rich atmosphere instead of putting out another Vapid Third Person Shooter Clone like the past two games have been. RE defined a genre for several games, but 4 & 5 just sunk to copy cating industry standards. Capcom should take its time to find a way to scare us again instead of just pulling another title out of the cookie cutter

It's hard to get excited when the last "real" RE offering was the bland mediocrity that was Resident Evil 5.

The only REs I played were 1, and 5. Loved both of them, for completely different reasons. Definitely keep us posted on 6!

If you could move and shoot at the same time, it wouldn't fucking be Resident Evil, damn it. Go and keep playing Dead Space, SephirothX.

RE4 is one of my all-time favorites but RE5 just felt stale. The story, the characters, the bad guys, everything.

Resi got better with each game... Until 5 came out as a generic action shooter.

As long as they remember: even the great RE4 wasn't scary at all.

I'd love to see how the system works when constricted mostly to inside buidings that are of course more tight than outdoor. Kinda like the PS series.
