<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>On a related note - did you guys notice it borrowed a bit from Splinter Cell, Metal Gear Solid and Silent Hill?</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I wonder what the damn budget on that game will end up being?</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>Well...I don't know. But it's exclusive for Gamecube ONLY. Now, if I were Capcom, I'd make a PS2 version just to milk the money out of the game.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>I don't think the PS2 could handle it, but they should at least put it on the X-Box as well, it sure as hell wouldn't hurt.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt "Cooper Black"; text-align: left; '>Was never a big fam of the series, but this one looks like it could be good. Glad its not in a mansion, i bet the controls will still be chunky, though.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I think anything that it borrowed from those games can be forgiven considering that they borrowed so much more from earlier games in the RE series. RE pretty much invented that sub-genre (or at least popularized it)</div>

 #15434  by Julius Seeker
 
<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>PS3 is a possibility (and maybe even the next Nintendo system if it is somehow not backwards compatable).</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I'm so glad the Alone in the Dark series gets the credit it's due...</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>Yes, it did start the genre but RE is the house hold name.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>The laser sighting, the kicking (at least that one kick I saw), ....well, I meant MGS2.</div>

 #15440  by Eric
 
<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Well they've need to add some freakin kicking for a while, I mean if you don't hava a gun, you're not gonna run around weaponless and just eaten.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I somehow doubt they'll want to pay the penalties for breach of contract</div>

 #15448  by Julius Seeker
 
<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>That's why I put "Or at least popularized it" within brackets. I've never actually heard of Alone in the Dark before, but I suspected that there was probably an even earlier game in the genre than RE.</div>

Here. There were two sequels and a much later third sequel that was a complete bastardization of the franchise.</div>
