Resident Evil 5 Producer On Resident Evil 2 Remake Chances

Capcom’s entering the home stretch for Resident Evil 5 — or better yet, the home stretch of the home stretch. The game’s out next spring, and the game’s producer, Jun Takeuchi, hinted to game site Eurogamer than an announcement was forthcoming. When quizzed about possible RE5 DLC, Takeuchi replied it was something they were thinking about, adding, “We do get that question a lot, and people seem to want it, so it’s possible that it’s something we would like to respond to.”

Resident Evil 2 Remake for Wii?

Can it be true? Now that the Wii is confirmed as the new home of violent hardcore gaming is the time right for a remake of good old Resi 2?

Japanese fan board 2ch has popped up a rumour concerning a possible remake of Biohazard 2 (aka Resident Evil 2 – but you knew that, right?) that will be exclusive to the Wii.

If the rumour is correct — and when has a random post on a Japanese fan site ever been wrong? — then we will be treated to a full Wii-ified remake, with some additional story elements. There will be a new ‘swordsman’ enemy (sword waggling minigame, anyone?) and ‘Resident Evil 4 Viewpoints’, which could mean anything – possibly 3rd-person over-the-shoulder stuff?

Its more than likely just bobbins, but even the slightest hint of RE2 is better than no RE2 at all.
