The Monster Hunter series is the biggest and highest selling franchise in Japan today a lot like what Call of Duty over here is. The release of a new Monster Hunter game is an annual event in Japan. Each year, thousands queue up outside shops in fevered anticipating a lot like what Call of Duty over here is. Monster Hunter is niche at best; it has a decent following of hundreds of gamers over here in the west. Monster Hunter 3 on Wii wasn’t a commercial failure but compared to the Japanese version….I think you get the point. It’s a cash cow and it’s super beneficial to the company that makes the games: Capcom. Think I’m exaggerating? Both companies make the exact same game over and over again and call it new each time, their fellow countrymen in the gaming world go on to make clones to cash in on what they did. EA with Battlefield and such and the PS Vita are flooded with Monster Hunter clones.
Many details for the upcoming rumored Resident Evil 1 remake have already leaked online. Capcom appears to have huge ambitions for it.
They game cube remake was mind blowing.. another remake would be nice but i was really hoping for Code Veronica first
If it's true they are probably leading up to RE5 with the Chris vs Wesker story
RE1, CV and then RE5

Zero was not a remake but an amazing game as well. I hope they remake that one one day with some coop play.. great great game
The whole Lisa Trevor side-story was an incredible addition and really fleshed out more of the lore. It could have easily felt tacked on to artificially extend the length of the game, but it felt 'right' like it should have been in there from the beginning. I'm hoping they include that in the Re-remake.
While I want another modern remake of 1, I think code Veronica should be first. The first re1 remake holds up amazingly well. Give CV it's due.
I hope they don't. They were created mainly to justify Wesker not really dying, and they do create more tension, but they don't make much sense.
Re-reviving things that were twice dead? Why would the virus stop there and not keep reviving them forever (until the head gets destroyed)?
And also the characters knowing that destroying their heads keep them from becoming crimson heads, while having a combat knife and lots of heavy objects around to do it while they're down, but having to rely on lucky shots or burning them with oil?
They can create other stuff that serves the same purpose of creating tension but that makes more sense.

Hey Capcom I want a remake of Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2 on Switch or, maybe Switch 2. I loved both of those games on GameCube.
Good. capcom and square enix were my two favourite developers and now it's just CapCom! Square enix keeps missing the mark, their sparks gone.
Dragon's Dogma 2 continues Capcom's hot streak of favorably reviewed games as the studio lands first on Metacritic's top publishers ranking.
