It’s January, typically gaming’s slow month. But Capcom, best known for Street Fighter and Resident Evil, is hard at work on two big time original games. One will make you question Capcom’s sanity.

Usually, when a country’s gaming scene struggles, game creators take the heat. But an Edge interview with Lost Planet 2 producer Jun Takeuchi suggests gamers could also be to blame.
