:lol Glad to see you still do the IGN editor pics lockii.

 

[VictimOfGrief]

what a worthless post.

 

[Minotauro]

Wow, you've somehow succeeded in making an unfunny photoshop involving the IGN guys.

Congrats!

 

[Doom_Bringer]

No, it's a sequel to an established series on the PS2 that I don't believe has even been hinted at (it may have been, but I don't remember).

Devil Kings? The IP Capcom registered a while ago? Is that it?

:lol Just for you man! May the legend never die!

 

[Mama Smurf]

New Ominusha maybe.

 

[Izzy]

Devil Kings is for DS.

 

[SyNapSe]

Street Fighter 3, err I mean 2 Super Hyper Fury Reloaded Edition!?!

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

No, it's a sequel to an established series on the PS2 that I don't believe has even been hinted at (it may have been, but I don't remember).

I would offer the DMC development team as an offering for a sequel to Megaman Legends on the PS2.

My luck it will be some shitty franchise I don't give a damn about.

Onimusha Code: Veronica X? Onimusha 4? Onimusha Gun Survivor? Onimusha Outbreak?

 

[Solid]

Gran Turismo 4, Tekken 5, Devil May Cry 3, God of War, Final Fantasy 12, Soul Calibur III, Kingdom Hearts 2 and this new Phantasy Star game (+ "old" RE4).

vs

Conker, Forza (haha)

vs

Zelda, Resident Evil 4 (that's it)

AGREED!

2005 = Year of the Playstation!

Edit: yeah I'm a Cuber.

Remove Phantasy Star crap and add Wanda instead!

I didn't read the whole thread, but just in case this hasn't been confirmed yet, I received my copy of GamePro today and the article is real. It's Gamepro's 200th Issue Collector's Edition.

 

[Elios83]

The first Onimusha trilogy has ended and it makes better sense to start with a new story with a new bad guy (the ending of Oni3 is clear on that hint hint) on a next gen platform.
Devil May Cry....the third games is just out so there's no time.
I hope it's not a new SF or Megaman (personal preferences nothing against those series).

 

[Gek54]

Didnt the GCN version get 10 times the amount of marketing than the others?

 

[jarrod]

Strider 3!? Bionic Commando Next?! Or both... IN SPACE!?

It's gonna be MMX9.

Actually Strider 3 is dead (which was in R&D for Xbox from the Chaos Legion team) while a Bionic Commando revival (which is in R&D for PS2 from the Maximo team) is still going strong.

look closer...

 

[Radius]

Edit: My money is on Powerstone 3 or Street Fighter EX 4 (Capcom recently asked Arika to make another game in the series but Arika refused... it's possible Capcom found someone else to do it or they are doing it themselves).

I thought Capcom of Japan doesn't have the SF rights anymore. It's unlikely that Capcom of America has asked Arika to do EX 4. Still, I hope it'll come true some day. One can never have enough fighting games (Kengo series excluded)

 

[ManaByte]

That explains it.

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

look closer...

My money is still on "Sequel to franchise I don't care about."

 

[ManaByte]

Onimusha Code: Veronica X? Onimusha 4? Onimusha Gun Survivor? Onimusha Outbreak?

After GT4 and RE4, and after the PS2 announcements at E3, you could probably call 2005 the year of the "4's" on the PS2...

 

[Zep]

APRIL FOOLS...

 

[ManaByte]

APRIL FOOLS...

I don't make April Fools jokes, sorry.

 

[Amir0x]

Lacked the sense of newness and awesomeness of the DC titles

Maybe because the DC and 128 bit generation was... NEW at the time? *gasp*

Sorry PS2 fans, but the PS2 is an outdated, outclassed, piece of shit IMO.

All this, and the PS2 still has the largest variety of quality titles! I guess old habits will never die.




Anyway, I'm just hoping that if it's truly a PS2 exclusive that they do their best this time to make the engine perfect for that platform and they really flesh out the create-a-fighter aspect for some much needed depth.

Street Fighter 4, then?

 

[ManaByte]

Street Fighter 4, then?

No.

If people just looked closer at my post they'd know the Capcom game.

 

[909er]

The others didn't get marketing as far as I saw on TV. They might as well have called it Link Calibur II exclusively for the GC.

 

[SolidSnakex]

No.

If people just looked closer at my post they'd know the Capcom game.

That's be Onimusha. I wonder who's going to make it since Inafune said that Oni 3 was the last one for him.

 

[The End]

No.

If people just looked closer at my post they'd know the Capcom game.

you just took all of the fun out of it.

 

[Defensor]

No.

I think I was the only one who looked back a it..

 

[AniHawk]

Nintendo ran their own ads and Namco ran theirs. The Xbox version was the second most advertised IIRC. Nintendo's was the one with mostly gameplay. Namco's was the one with the weapons dealer, I think.

 

[Izzy]

Onimusha or Devil May Cry - too soon.

 

[jarrod]

The others didn't get marketing as far as I saw on TV. They might as well have called it Link Calibur II exclusively for the GC.

Well, what'd you expect when Nintendo's footing the advertising bill?

 

[lordmrw]

No, it's a sequel to an established series on the PS2 that I don't believe has even been hinted at (it may have been, but I don't surely don't remember. There are a bunch of big games for the PS2 this year.

that was brilliant man. :lol Wish more people would do that, heh.

 

[Solid]

New Onimusha? Meh.

 

[Dr_Cogent]

New Onimusha? Meh.

I wonder if it's going to have camera angles like the older ones did (if it is indeed a new Onimusha game). Capcom did something right with RE4 by getting rid of the static cameras.

 

[Gattsu25]

New Onimusha? Hell Yeah! Onimusha 1 and 3 were great games and Onimusha 2 was excellent, too, if you ignored the shitty story!

Agreed. I can't wait till E3 now

 

[SyNapSe]

Agreed. I can't wait to cry at E3 now!

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

If the hint is correct, I was on the money.

What the hell is Capcom trying to do here, beat the record for Capbombs?

Onimusha 4: $19.99 within 72 hours of release!

What actor will they shoehorn into this game? Billy Blanks or Cynthia Rothrock?

Attack the armies of Nobunaga with your Billy Bands in this fast paced action adventure title!

 

[FartOfWar]

Definitely.

Tekken 5 > Soul Calibur 2 (In pretty much every category now that I think of it.)

No. Just no.

 

[FoneBone]

while a Bionic Commando revival (which is in R&D for PS2 from the Maximo team) is still going strong.

No offense, but didn't you first say that about 2 years ago? And how do you know that?

 

[Gattsu25]

Yes! Fit I too will cry tears of JOY at this years' E3

E3 this year will be great...the revealing of the next gen systems is just the icing on the cake (despite my thinking that this gen should last longer)

 

[jiggle]

It's Breath of Fire VI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????

 

[The End]

It's Breath of Fire VI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????

I'm sorry, you missed the whole page where we said it was a new Onimusha game 17 times.

 

[Baron Aloha]

Onimusha 4? That should have been a PS3 launch title. Having the new trilogy split between systems is going to suck (that is...unless Capcom pulls a Megaman again and keeps the series going on the PS2 long after the new systems have launched).

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Haha, GAMECUBE NINTENDO owners. So sad.

BUY A PS2.

Hopefully, I won't have to buy another.

 

[Elios83]

I agree,Onimusha 4 as the beginning of a new story in the series should start on PS3.Moreover I don't think Capcom can do much better than Onimusha 3 on PS2 not only graphically but as a game.
We'll see what Capcom is working on...

 

[Bluemercury]

Every single person calling the scan fake will be eating crow in May.

And yes, the game is 100% exclusive to the PS2.

Stupidest decision in a while.......this beats Sega in every regard....

 

[Bluemercury]

No, FACT. Do you want a super high res comparative video?

yes please.

 

[OG_Original Gamer]

I didn't expect this thread to get this big, i'm very surprised. I do think its a bad move on Namco part, but if selling 2 million copies in one region isn't enough then what is.

 

[Barnimal]

2005=year of xenon.
