Capcom"s flagship horror-survival series will infect both Microsoft and Sony"s next-generation consoles.
Since January, GameCube owners have been the only American gamers who have been able to enjoy Resident Evil 4. But while the best-selling, critically lionized title will arrive on US PlayStation 2s until the fall, it looked like Xbox owners would never be able to help Leon S. Kennedy slay the series" signature undead hordes.
However, today Capcom announced Resident Evil 5 is coming to Microsoft"s next-generation console, the Xbox 360, as well as Sony"s PlayStation 3. The announcement came in the form of a press release on the English-language section of the Investor Relations part of Capcom"s Japanese corporate Web site.
