CAPCOM's Next Year
I, contrary to popular belief, have not fallen off the face of the earth, died, vanished into thin air, or otherwise been punished in such a way that I was dissallowed to access a computer. I went through a gaming depression where I began to care less and less until I remembered how close I was to Ganon in Wind Waker and removed his sorry as…. As I was saying, I’m alive. I figured I’d make an innovative comeback, and present you with, rather than a preview of a game, a preview of a company. Below, you will see the upcoming masterpieces from a company who never fails to amaze and amuse: CAPCOM…
CAPCOM has brought at least one game to the table for everyone. From Resident Evil to Mega Man, the company has its bases covered. Let’s forget the past though: let’s look at the future: Resident Evil, Product Number 03, and Viewtiful Joe, specifically
Resident Evil. I still remember the first time I ever played it. It was 2AM and I was at my friend’s house. RE2 on the N64… I’m walking around, and the Olive Coated, Pale Skinned 9’ tall freak jumps through this wall and scares the … yeah. That was the first time I experienced true surprise and horror in a game. I didn’t know how effective it could be when done right. Since, I’ve been very intrigued, but haven’t purchased the games, as I’m not fond of the control. Either way, it is undeniable that the most recent screens of the next Resident Evil game is as promising as can be. RE4’s graphics are beautiful:
^RE4’s Swinging Camera – Finally!
Product Number 03. I adored this from first sight. The only killing game with a ‘screw guns’ philosophy: PN03. The music is right up my ally, and right up Extreme G III’s as well, and adds a ton to the game. The dance moves look very very… good… And to top it all off, different suits which can be purchased with points add a good bit of strategy to the game. I still think the game will be hit or miss because of how innovative it is, but I’m confident in it’s hit-ness with me. RE4’s Graphics are Beautiful. Vanessa Schneider is Beautiful

^Gorgeous yet Deadly
It’s a Viewtiful Life. You are so Viewtiful to me. Viewtiful Joe looks more promising than… it looks really promising. I haven’t ever seen a game strive to be so different while using common techniques. The effects that speed up or slow the game: Max Paine; Enter The Matrix. Cel Shading: The Wind Waker; XIII; Cel Damage. Side Scrolling Platformer: Mario Bros and most other Game Boy games. Viewtiful Joe: not in the same league as any. This game just looks plain different. RE4’s graphics are beautiful. Vanessa Schneider is Beautful. Joe is Viewtiful.
^Stylistic and bold. I can’t wait for October.
Capcom has a very good holding in any Gamecube owner’s heads and hearts. They’re taking the GameCube the same way all the developers should: Seriously. Capcom’s looking pretty damn viewtiful right now. I can’t wait.
