Sega Overworks - other than Sakura Taisen, they expect to reveal brand new titles sometimes this year.


Sega Smilebit - Gun Valkyrie for XBox is already 95% completed.


Sega Sonic Team - the development of the PC, XBox and GameCube versions of Phantasy Star Online are smooth, all versions are able to hook up to the internet now.


Sony Polyphony - currently developing Gran Turismo 4, which will have network battle mode for sure. They are also planning to release a PC version called Gran Turismo Professional.


Vivarium - we are planning to develop handheld game titles, and we are currently researching on online games.



GC to last 7 or 8 years?!!?!?  I don\'t know about that one, heck ps1 dominated the 32-bit generation and its just hitting about its 7th year now.  Plus with MS and Sony on top of there game it may be diffcult to hold out that long.

What did I tell you guys.. what did I tell you? Everone Ohhed and Ahhed cause the NGC was getting 6 exclusive Resident Evil games. Well there\'s 4 down right there.. all updates. :rolleyes: RE:0 will be new, so I\'ll look forward to playin that sometime.. and there\'s still going to be one more left for that deal. Anyone wanna bet that it\'s gonna be a Gun Survivor type game??

Even with "Exclutivity", don\'t expect to not see these updates on other systems. Capcom dosen\'t know the meaning of the word "Exclusive". All they have to do is add in 5 mins of extra footage, maybe a new texture or 2, and a few hidden costumes.. then slap a SX or Directors Cut label on it and they have a whole new game primed for whatever systems they wanna put it on.

Anyone even remember the last time Nintnedo had a hot selling product that actually STAYED exclusive??

It was already common knowledge that four of those Resident Evil games would be remakes / ports. The other two was confirmed by Capcom to be RE:0 and RE 4.

As for the exclusive issue, I doubt we see Capcom being exclusive. Remember, RE for PSone was "exculsive" and so was RE:CV for the DC...
