Capcom's Kazunori Sugiura: "Games in the future will be required to be social."

[Great Rumbler]

In the next-generation home video game consoles, users are more and more closely linked to each other online, as in mobile devices and personal computers. I think games in the future will be required to be social in some way.

If only "social" didn't mean nickle-and-diming shit-games most of the time... Hey, solo-players, here's your out, rent this NPC for some fun-bucks.

Years from now, revisionist microbloggers will bemoan capcom for pursuing the iOS standard of 'social' rather than the one outlined by Lost Planet 2.

Lost Planet 2 was a gud game

Thank Bowie for indie pc devs, and fuck anyone on board of the mobile games future those games are fucking terrible unless you are willing to pay for extra money or energy or whatever not the mention the terrible controls and abysmal battery life.

At this point, I just want Capcom to make 1-2 good fighting games/updates and, an occasional Ace Attorney every couple of years, and otherwise fuck off.

Port Dragons Dogma to the PC then do whatever you want. I'll name my character Ryu, my pawn Nina, and change the steam icon to read Breath of Fire VI and live happily ever after

Im sure this is a cruel joke to all Legends fans, like saying "oh you want Legends 3? WOOPS, CANCELLED. Let's instead turn Legends 3 into E.X. Troopers, because that's a franchise that millions of fans would buy, right?"
And then they say "Oh, what are we going to do with Aero, we wasted money and time making a design for her... OH I KNOW, LET'S PUT HER INTO A IPHONE GAME, THAT WILL MAKE FANS LOVE US AGAIN, AND HOPEFULLY FORGET WE CANCELLED 4 MEGAMAN GAMES! CMON, LET'S ROLL IT!"
And a bunch of Yesmans going apeshit think about the money they will get from those plans.

The greatest gift of mobile gaming was it's ability to turn twenty year old frat boys into grumpy old men yelling at clouds.

I don't think it's 20 y/o frat boys that are pining for Mega Man Legends 3.

Bu, but I play videogames to be anti-social...
