5 Exclusive NEW Capcom Games for GC!
 

1) Viewtiful Joe

Director: Hideki Kamiya
Release date: Spring 2003
According to Capcom, this is a "beautiful side-scrolling action game" with a unique anime-cel-shaded visual style. In it, players control a superhero character and are able to perform a variety of stylistic fight moves. A special "slow time" feature will enable gamers to knock foes backward dozens of feet -- nearly off the screen, in fact, while a "zoom in" option will make possible other powerful jabs.

2) Product Number 03 (P.N.03)

Director: Shinji Mikami
Release date: Spring 2003
Whoa! An exclusive new GameCube title from Shinji Mikami, the creator of Resident Evil. P.N.03 is an action game featuring a beautiful and hip female soldier who possesses an ultra-destructive laser gun. The game has been described as a Tomb Raider meets Devil May Cry. It looks "far more beautiful" than Devil May Cry, say insiders.

Vanessa Z. Schneider is a hired mercenary who kills robots at her client's request, according to Capcom. The character's dark past -- namely the fact that these same type of robots murdered her parents -- though, is about to catch up with her. Vanessa must dodge and weave through a heavy barrage of firepower from an army of transforming mechs and shoot them with her gun.

3) Dead Phoenix

Director: Hiroki Kato
Release date: Summer 2003
In Dead Phoenix, players can "freely fly like a bird into a world of epic proportions." The game revolves around a warrior and takes place on a floating ancient city. The warrior must slay monsters and other disgusting creations that inhabit the world. Filled with fantastic sights, places and sounds, says Capcom. Every day the world of the game evolves and changes.

4) Killer 7

Director: Gouichi Suda
Release date: Winter 2003
An action-adventure type game with psychological elements, Killer 7 seems to take inspiration from classics such as Hard Boiled. Harmon Smith is a dangerous old man in a wheelchair -- an assassin with seven unique personalities, according to the Capcom description. Kun Lan -- or "God Hands" -- is a man capable of overthrowing governments. The game tells the dark rivalry between these two characters over five stories and four intertwined worlds.

Even as Kun Lan's corruption spreads across the world, Smith must use his special powers and dwell in his different personas to defeat his nemesis.

5) Biohazard 4...........YAWN. No comment!

Anyways I'm not going to trust any of these games until I see the reviews because Capcom is developing them, and none are fighting games. Interesting none the less.........wouldn't you say?

3 & 4 sound interesting. But I was hoping for info on Poject Devil, and Cas Ra.

Looks good. Exclusive is ALWAYS a good word--freaking third-party games that appear on more than one system do not do good justice to any system.

Ones that appear on one system first and then are later ported to other systems can... for the system it was on first, at least :p

Anyways those games sound weird... Although I guess I'm just saying that because Capcom has a number of big franchises, and only one of the new games is from one of them so yeah... :p

I'm guessing those are Japanese release dates..... and like DsH said, thest games sound wierd. Why can't they release an exclusive Street fIghter or somthin'? :p

RE4 looks sweet! Graphics I mean... and it has full 3D enviorments!... Although I guess the graphics still aren't all that special, just check out Silent Hill 3 :p

I havn't downloaded the whole movie yet, but I saw Leon's name so I am guessing that means he's a playable character, which is cool and I'm glad they brought him back... *crosses fingers and hopes for something in the story to be about Sherry*... :p

The other games still sound weird though ;)

Edit:

Question - How the hell do the NGC 3D graphics go from what they have been at lately (not bad, but not THIS good) to RE4 level?

I bet the final game won't look as good... or at least there won't be all those crazy effects like... I dunno... :eek: I mean just look at ED... and now look at RE4... :unsure:

It's the DIVX thing Factor5 created--they've been using it. In fact they were probably one of the first to get their hands on it. With less space taken up for movies, there's tons more room for better graphics. Gamecube's capable of Xbox graphics, or better! I'm also guessing they've been working with the Gamecube for a while now, you know.. pumping out the RE remake, and they've been experimenting, and now they're going into the game with better skills in Gamecube Graphics. It looks sweet.

Except.. Killer 7 is kind of weird.. it's not even cel-shading.. but probably a unique game.:unsure:

enjoy my friends

Dude, this isn't eyecandy. It's eye..... SEX!

:p

Sweet mother of Christ....RE4 O_O



Leon is back... sweet

and like DH, I hope Sherry is in here


Leon looks different though.

The movie was beautiful.:beat:

If they did that, then I'd have to buy a 3rd party controller for it. So please no exclusive fighting games on GC (or Xbox for that matter).

Wow, looks like they are using some new an art styles ive never seen before...I hope it all works out for them.

Characters always look different when they go from crummy graphics of generations past to uber nice 3D graphics...

I mean just look at Snake from MGS to MGS2 :p

DsH, everything you're seeing in RE 4 is ingame, and bound to look slightly better upon its release.

Games almost never look as good as the pictures that are "in game"
