Street Fighter IV costumes and Resident Evil 5 space on PS Home


Capcom will be breaking into your Home... to give you cool stuff! They partnered up with Sony to develop new content for Home, in honor of the release of Street Fighter IV (PS3, 360) and Resident Evil 5 (PS3, 360).

They're pulling out all the stops. They'll be releasing new Street Fighter IV costumes, as well as collectibles. Resident Evil 5 will also get collectibles, and will also get its own Space. You might get de ja vu when you get there. That's because it's based on the town of Kijuju. Will it have zombies and tentacle monsters? It had better.

Both games will also be compatible with Home-based matching. RE5 will get direct matching functionality straight from its launch on March 5. SFIV will get the feature in a future update.

KZ2 costumes from Amazon. Home content in games is going to be a deciding factor in PS3 purchases over 360 in multiplatform games. When I recieded my beta codes for home way back and then saw NXE.....I was like uhhhh is that microsoft's answer to Home?lol. The one thing I can say about NXE is that the avatar's look better in NXE than Home. MS better step it up.

» Mmm hmm. Costumes!

Eventually, they might even have Sackboy costumes for Home, and Home costumes for LittleBigPlanet ! ^_^



Nice to see a third party sponsor some threads in Home tho. Hope the others join in! Imagine: a Solid Snake costume in Home?! Or even better: Johnny Sasaki!!!

The Chun Li outfit looks ok but also would like a Sheva outfit, as for Ryu and Ken i didn't really like them.



But what if this was for Japan only? that would really stink.

This is cool, this is what we (PS3 owners) want more of!



They should do unlockable content for Home if you get certain trophies or the Platinum trophy of a game.

Very happy about this, always thought Capcom was in the back pocket of Microsoft.

» Coolness!

Maybe Home will turn out great and fun after all with features like this!

» Awesome

Now I can have Chun-Li in my home? Good, and who said the Running Man action was only for dancing?
