Capcom dismisses Resident Evil 5 date rumours

Eurogamer writes:

"Capcom has distanced itself from speculation that Resident Evil 5 will be released in October.

The rumours emerged from reports in Electronic Gaming Monthly magazine and website PSU. However, Capcom has since restated that it has yet to put a date on the game.

That also reflects retail scepticism that Capcom would release Resi 5 in October when it would be up against heavyweight sequel Gears of War 2.

Financial results have previously pointed to Resident Evil 5 being released this year, but an early 2009 date would be less than surprising than a Walrus."

"but an early 2009 date would be less than surprising than a Walrus." Uhhh does that even make any sense?

In any case... I can see it coming out early next year... Capcom seems to enjoy it (DMC4, RE4, DMC2, etc.)

I'd pick Resi 5 over Gears 2 any day. And I'm looking forward to Gears 2.

But like you wouldnt guess that by the avatar anyway

Personally i think RE5 would hurt Gears 2 more than visa versa.

6 - I love RE
but seriously, im getting sick of this freaking game and the rumours (yeah, more than Killzone 2) there are plenty of games ahead to be worried about a game without a release date, meh. Resident Evil 5? 2009? cool, let's move on.

if your up to Number 5 in your franchise (with many spin offs and what nots) it means that there are fans out there

so i think Resi 5 could stand up to gears, hell i would pick it over gears 2
