Just checked, IGN is the one making assumptions. Sorry Stu.
The deal doesn't include RE5. IGN is assuming RE will go multi-platform after that, or at least be on PS2. I on the other hand, am not so sure. I got a feeling it may go multi-platform, but at least be on GC. You don't release the entire series on one system, get all the RE fans on one platform, and then throw the next game on something else. I could see ports, but I couldn't see them ditching GC after it has all 6 games in the series on it, with half of them exclusive.
Plus, the RE team has had time with the GC hardware, and has produced some great results. If anything, they would likely port it off of Gamecube. RE Online is definetly lacking in the graphics department, and GC's graphics did add a lot to the game.
I think IGN is just making blind assumptions thinking everything will go to PS2. What next? they expect a port of Tekki? I got a feeling Nintendo will get its hands on RE5 as well, exclusively. Might as well keep it through the end of this generation, and they can throw a few bucks around to get it.
Heh, you realize RE2 is on 5 systems, RE3 on 4, and RE:CV on 3? The only systems without RE2 in the past 2 generations were Saturn and Xbox. That's also not including the PC and Game.Com versions, and of course there were multiple versions on PSX, though not as many as with the original RE, which has appeared on 4 systems, has 3 versions on PSX, and been remade.
This is as bad as Pokemon.
