So is EGM just being stupid enough to fall for a fake Wii like the 1UP dudes, or is this rumor legit? This is the rumor tumor they put in all of our heads:
Microsoft might gobble up another developer — after the success of Dead Rising, its looking to open its checkbook to consume Capcom.
We want to know what you guys think — would you like to see this happen or not? A year ago I wouldn’t even believe this rumor as a possibility, but there’s always the fact that Microsoft stole Rare away from Nintendo. Capcom already pumped out Dead Rising, and plans to kick ass with Lost Planet soon — not to mention their solid background of Resident Evil, Devil May Cry, Mega Man, and Street Fighter games — so the stakes could be high if this rumor were to come true.
I doubt Microsoft could pull off exclusivity to Capcom’s games even if they owned them, but I didn’t think a Britney Spears sex tape was ever going to happen either. Devil May Cry on the 360 would definitely be nice though, I’m all for it.
