Resi 5 exclusive denied

Rumours from Japan that Resi 5 will be 360 exclusive have been shot down by Capcom
Word from Japan had suggested that Resident Evil 5 will be exclusive to Xbox 360 for a year but that's not the case, Capcom tells us this morning...

"Resident Evil 5 will release on PS3 and Xbox 360 as announced. There a no plans for an exclusive with the game", a spokesperson from the company told us.

They went on to add that it's still very early days for the sequel, which means, unfortunately, it's likely to be some considerable time before anything of the project is seen outside of Capcom HQ.

Anticipation surrounding Resi 5 is GARGANTUAN thanks to Capcom's incredible reinvention of the series with Resident Evil 4. We will, of course, bring you further news on Resident Evil 5 as and when we get it.

I've never heard even the slightest murmuring of this rumour, anyone else?

Always knew/thought it would be on both consoles.

*cough*w****r*cough Very Happy

Seriously though, if i pay for my own ticket - can i come along with the CVG team to the next big gaming event?

It can be our little secret, like that time we...i've already said too much Embarassed

Well that's good news... any news on the possibility that it could come out for Wii? Bah!

And why is it 360 agian? The 360 doesn't have any of the other Resi titles, unless I've missed something...

X06 should clear this up. Capcom UK is speaking to Japan for us tonight... More tomorrow!

It would be great for MS if they did manage to pull off Resi 5 as a 360 exclusive.

Just hate it when developers show off some pics of a game this early. Its like teasing us. Just announce its in production and nothing more. Seeing some shots it looks in an advance state already.

I would love to be at one of these shows. The closest I've ever come is a Sony show in B-ham and a Gamesmaster show... Embarassed Highlights included seeing Mr Diamond...and some of the then CVG crew...Bro even had his pic taken with Jaz Rignal!

As you might imagine various '360-friendly' sites covered this. Along with the usual '360 friendly consumers'. I'm sick of all that. Is it just me or have the past 6 months been worse than normal?

edit:

Thanks for the quick news.
