trivard676Resident Evil 5 was supposed to be a timed exclusive. Reports had emerged that Capcom would release Resident Evil 5 for the 360 before they would release for the PS3…and PC was somewhere way the hell back there too…
Ken over at Everything HQ has allegedly spoken with someone from Sony that that they have already offered a fee to ensure that Resident Evil 6 appears on the Playstation 3 before The Xbox 360 and the PC. These fees are actually very common, and are pretty much the entire reason timed exclusives even exist.
If Capcom likes the offering from Sony, Resident Evil 6 would release for the PS3 6 months before it would appear on other systems. However there’s no word as of yet if Capcom will accept the offering, or if Microsoft will try to win them over as well.
Word around the web is that an E3 reveal of Resident Evil 6 is very likely. Since Capcom has recently stated that they will start pushing out more and more of their big-name titles, we’re more inclined to believe that a lot of fans will be very happy come this June.
RoH will bring you all the details when they become available. So which would you prefer? Does it matter to you? Would you wait it out?
