Shinji Mikami's consoles of choice and some Famitsu survey results |
Ó
Revered game designer Shinji Mikami who is best known for his work on the celebrated Resident Evil series was asked some pretty tough questions by Famitsu recently, and among those was which console he wanted to support given the choice.Mikami held nothing back and said "from the stance of a game maker, if you're looking for visual expression and reality, it's Xbox 360. Otherwise, Wii."
Incidentally, more than 1,500 gamers, developers and celebrities were asked the very same question by the publication. The pulse of the people say it's the Nintendo Wii with the slimmest of margins at 38.9 percent. The Sony PlayStation 3 is at a very close second with a flat 38 percent while the Microsoft Xbox 360 is at third place with 23.1 percent.
Mikami is widely credited for bringing the survival horror genre to prominence with his work on the RE franchise, and was once again praised for reinventing the series with his stint as the director for the blockbuster Resident Evil 4. He is now working at Seeds studios after the dissolution of his old team Clover.

dude ***** this guy, who cares what system he supports
hahaha
...God declares the PS3 to be His favourite. The bible couldn't be done on anything else quite frankly.
LOL @ PS3. Is there anything it can do right? I bet the percentage from the PS3 were paid by Sony or are crappy developers LOL /
god is a fanboy...i'd rather be in hell!
Wow a developer actually thinks 360 is better? And the main Resident Evil developer? This isn't good at all. I was hoping for the PS3 RE5 to be the best but hearing this, I dont think its gonna happen. What dissapointing news. I wonder how much MS has paid him to say stuff like this. :) Its the only logical answer for why he's said these strange comments.
Nuff said
stupid fanboy. He's the only dev praising the 360? I guess you only have one system right? The ps3? Shut up and go ask mommy for more money to get you another ps3 game!
what is he talking about. the 360 is out selling all of the competition!! so what the hell is he talking about!! the 360 will take over!!
Xman its a poll not sales read before you react, and once again another developer chooses 360 sony is the only company saying ps3 is better well duh they made the system its news like this that makes me smile inside and out anyway looking foward to devil may cry 4, resident evil 5 and other amazing games coming from capcom to the 360.
reality huh capcom must know something we dont cant wait for e3
stupid 360 poo head. The PS3 is in a totally different league. When looking a the generations of game consoles the PS3 shoud be a generation above the 360.
Why didn't microsoft put more of that money into making the Xbox 360 better?
you sound liek a sappy infomercial sound bite... The hardware is virtually IDENTICLE... so how the hell is it in a league by itself? stfu
Jst show us RE5 ALLREADY!!!!! "if you're looking for visual expression and reality, it's Xbox 360. Otherwise, Wii." ha ha Otherwise, Wii?Who is smoking that s**t?! Otherwise, PS3 come On, R U on...
what now nigyers u *****in *****es know it. *****in nigeris the x box is the best *****. ps3 fan boys suck *****. we already bought capcom mo*****ers hahahahaha
Never post any news articles regarding to Halo 3 from now on, period. I f+cking care nothing about garbage like Crapalo 3 or Halo 2.5 or Halo 2 Episode 1. This is a flat fact that there’re 200 games or so which are better than Halo 3 in terms of graphics, sound, music, gameplay, multiplay, single-play, and replay value (longevity). * World of StarCraft (WoS – MMORPG genre): go to google.com -> click ‘images’ button to do image searching -> type ‘World of StarCraft’ -> you can see 2 exclusive pictures. Back in early 2006, Blizzard gave an exclusive interview about WoS and these 2 in-game pictures of WoS to GameSpot. About 1 week later, Blizzard requested GameSpot to remove all information on WoS because WoS was in very early and immature stages. * Call of Duty 5: Infinity Ward makes CoD 2 and 4; Infinity Ward has been making CoD 4 since Dec. 2005. Treyarch makes CoD 3 and 5; Treyarch has been making CoD 5 since Jan. 2007. CoD 2, 3, 4, and 5 games’ publisher is Activision (Activision decided which version will be made by which developer). * Jak & Dexter Next-Gen: Naughty Dog is currently making Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and Jak & Dexter at the same time. Gears of War 2, MotorStorm 2, Doom Wars, Ninja Gaiden 2, Black 2, Wolfenstein Next-Gen, Dead Rising 2, Dead or Alive 5, Resistance 2, Beowulf Next-Gen, Knight of the Old Republic 3 (all of the above games’ existence is widely and publicly known; however, never officially confirmed) Killzone 2 God of War 3 Resident Evil 5 StarCraft Ghost Next-Gen Heavy Rain Jak & Dexter Next-Gen Turok Bioshock MotorStorm Gears of War Unreal Tournament 3 Crysis Haze Army of Two Ratchet & Clank Future: ToD Uncharted: Drake's Fortune Fable 2 Devil May Cry 4 Gran Turismo 5 Folklore Virtua Fighter 5 StarCraft 2 Eight Days 2 Days 2 Vegas Cipher Complex WarDevil Final Fantasy XIII White Knight Story Earth No More Interstellar Marines Call of Duty 5 The Chronicles of Ridd+ck: AoDA The Crossing Project Offset Battlefield: Bad Company Warhawk Age of Conan: HA Global Agenda Heavenly Sword Grand Theft Auto 4 Fifth Phantom Saga Team Fortress 2 Call of Duty 4 The Settlers Alone in the Dark Brothers in Arms: HH Time0 Timeshift Next-Gen Fatal Inertia Forza Motorsport 2 Splinter Cell: Conviction Soul Caliber 4 Getaway Afrika Hydrophobia Max Payne 3 Duke Nukem Forever Deus Ex Next-Gen Silent Hill 5 EndWar Indiana Jones Next-Gen World of StarCraft Condemned 2: Bloodshot Monster Hunter 3 Star Wars Battlefront 3 StarWars: FU Lost Planet 2: Colonies Company of Heroes: OF Final Fantasy versus XIII The Last Remnant Golden Axe Next-Gen Kingdom Hearts 3 Civilization IV: BtS The Club The Outsider Stalker 2 Guitar Hero III Stranglehold The Darkness Kane & Lynch: DM Elveon Tekken 6 Medal of Honor: Airborne Half Life 2: Ep 2 Ninja Gaiden Sigma Alan Wake Saboteur Metal Gear Solid 4 Spore Dark Sector World in Conflict SEGA Rally Revo Assassin's Creed Project Gotham Racing 4 Enemy Territory: QW Burnout Paradise The Agency The Wall FEAR the 2nd GhostBusters Next-Gen Lost Odyssey Eve Online 2: Revelations Lair Halo Wars Ace Combat 6 Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Supreme Commander Mass Effect Fracture Left 4 Dead WoW: BC Blue Dragon Portal SimCity Societies Universe At War Eternal Sonata Frontlines: FoW Mercenaries 2 Dark Messiah of M&M 2 Midnight Club Next-Gen Huxley Too Human SOCOM Confrontation Resistance: FoM EverQuest II: EoF Warhammer Online * (There’re 75 more games in between; I just can’t list them all here due to the limitation of writing space) Halo 3 Theseis Overlord Halo 2 (Win Vista) Shadowrun See, this? There’s almost countless number of games which are better than Halo 3 in all respects. Why should I waste even 5 minutes to play Crapalo 3 when there’re 200 better games? It just makes no-sense at all. Kids, use your common sense because X360 fanboys can never think and rationalize with clear and unbiased mind.
Halo is so overrated. I can't understand why people like Halo so much. Halo 1 and 2 are the most boring FPS i ever played.
shut up 360 and ps3 fanboys. The wii won buahahaaa
One System To Rule Them All -X360
I couldn't care less what's the opinion of a man who very nearly destroyed one of my favorite survival-horror series by making it exclusive to the Gamecube. And wasn't he involved in that Clover fiasco? And what about that a**-wiggling 3rd-person shooter for the GC? That was his brainchild wasn't it? Indeed, that whole "Capcom 5" was his idea... Yeah, his opinion really matters. AND he breaks his word... he vowed to commit seppuku after RE4 was ported to PS2, yet he's still alive an' kickin, head clearly attached to his shoulders...
I dont see why people like the game so much when there are better FPS's out there besides Halo. I played Halo 1 on my PC and Halo 2 on the X360 at my college that I attend. The only reason that I play the second one was because that was the only multiplayer game that they had at the school. I played a little into the story mode and nothing facinated me.
You would care if he liked your system.
Wow you said Halo 3 sucks then you list games (mostly PS3) that aren't even released yet. Yet for some reason you listed Halo 2 and Halo 3 anyway. You're f*cking stupid. Go away.
Why didn't sony put more money into making PS3 games better? Actually, why didn't they put any money into PS3 games at all? They are far more concerned with blu ray. There's you're answer.
The bible was written exclusively on high def blu ray too right? Dumbass fantard
I could care less which system he likes. I am much more interested in the fact that 38% of those asked the question said PS3. What was the percentage for the 360 again? Sorry to act like a fanboy with the last statement but you never seem to hesitate to make remarks like that one about the PS3.
