Resident Evil 5 Shambling Onto PC?

comment Commentsprint Printemail EmailDeliciousDiggStumbleUponRedditFacebookSlashdot

Resident Evil 4's PC port notwithstanding, the Resident Evil series of survival-horror games is among the more enjoyable reasons to wet yourself. Thus, the possibility that the hide-and-go-aiiiieeee series' latest entry might be making its way over to our platform of choice inspires both excitement and trepidation.

Sadly, at this point, RE5's PC release is unconfirmed. After a PC version appeared alongside its console counterparts on a recent Capcom release list, Big Download attempted to get ahold of Capcom to verify the port's existence. In response, a Capcom rep waved the site away, merely saying that no official announcements have been made. Not a "yes," but certainly not a "no."

Our guess? It's coming. Capcom has been lavishing the PC with ports as of late, so we don't see why it wouldn't do the same for one of its biggest titles. At any rate, the game is slated to arrive on March 13. Common sense says that we'll at least hear something about the PC's dose of the T-virus before then.

Its kind of like using an emulator, it doesnt feel right on the PC. But then again I wouldn't mind being able to bash some zombies with my ever skilled mouse reflexes instead of a controller for a change. Definately like the sound of that idea.

If they are not going to put any time or effort into the pc version, they should just can the idea.  I have played very few ports that felt right on the pc.
