Cliffy B, honcho behind theGears of Warseries,recently became a free agent. Meanwhile at Capcom,Resident Evil 6has been collecting some ofthe worst reviewsin the series history, largely due to the game’s arguably failed attempts to play like other popular Western shooters (includingGears of War). It’s like if Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson just had abig fight, then Justin Bieber conveniently became single and bumped into Kristen at the clubat the exact same time. Could it be fate?
Cliffy may think so, as herecently tweeted“Hey, Capcom. Call me. We can fix Resident Evil. Together. :-)” HE EVEN DID A LITTLE EMOTICON WITH A NOSE ZOMG SO CUTE!!! I wonder if he’s crossed the line between looking confident (sexy) and cocky (not sexy). For all we know, Capcom may be quite happy withResident Evil 6.The game hasreportedly sold +3 million in less than a month, which shows a lot of potential for it to become an excellent provider for Capcom’s future children when it grows up.
While I’m not a big fan of theGears of Warseries, I think Cliffy has an excellent head for game design (and a body to match!). If I were Capcom, I’d be totally hot for him. Then again,Masachika Kawata(producer ofResident Evil: Revelations) is also super cute with awesome hair, and he’s a lot lower maintenance than Cliffy, who has a well documented track record for going into“full diva mode” when faced with anything less than perfection.
Maybe they should all just triple kiss in Cancun and be done with it.
