Japanese publisher becomes the latest to embrace the strengths of Epic's technology...
The rise of middleware looks set to continue into the current generation of consoles, as publishers look to reduce costs and ensure a smooth transition across PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation3.
Already the engine of choice amongst many developers, Capcom today confirmed that it has entered into an agreement with Epic Games to utilise the Unreal Engine 3.0. Unsurprisingly, both parties refused to elaborate on what the technology will be used in, though rumourmongers have already began to suggest a switch for Resident Evil 5.
"The Unreal Engine is one of the most powerful and versatile tools available for next-generation game development," said Mark Beaumont, executive vice president, officer and head of Capcom consumer software publishing in the Americas and Europe. "More than just a graphics engine, UE3 will empower the development team to create the quality experience that gamers expect from a Capcom product."
"Capcom is known for the quality and artistry of their games," said Mark Rein, vice president, Epic Games. "We're glad that Unreal Engine 3 can be a part of their creative process."

With the emphasis on action in Resident Evil 5, clunky controls are a bit of a problem. I'll agree they are a trademark charatceristic of the series, but if Resident Evil is headed further down a Gears of War route, then it needs to be looked at.
Personally I'd rather they kept the controls and toned down the action in place of some added significance on the puzzle count...

What a load of abject [#@!?]e, "the clunky controls can be excused" theyre supposed to be clunky genius its how the resident evil games are meant to feel. As are the menus. I for one as a die hard fan would be seriously pissed off if the controls and menus were changed. fair point about the puzzles tho, im guessing they were removed to allow for coop play.

this is without a doubt the lamest piece of crap i have ever seen in my entire life.....no other game has dissapointed and failed just as horribly as this one.....and to be quite honest...im still in shock....god damn piece of [#@!?]!! game companies that produce this garbage should go bankrupt NOW!!!

I tried a new resident evil 1, 2 and 3.
I want to try resident 5. good or not?
seem more sinister and tense. I do want to try this game.

But surely a good story is like the icing on a cake? I enjoyed RE4 more than 5, because I felt the intrigue of the series heading into new territory. By comparison RE5 felt completely generic.

if you want to play space invaders you can but im not going to whinge about a story line when i buy a game to play.

"if no-one likes this game because of the story line get a book" then by your logic..we should just play space invaders!
