Capcom Confirms Strong 2009 Line-Up

By Gamezine Staff

Capcom confirms a promising line-up for the beginning of 2009.

First, lets get the minutia out of the way. Flock! (exclamation mark included) lets players herd animals into an alien mother-ship by controlling a UFO.

Despite its apparent ridiculousness, Flock! does appear to be a charming Arcade game that'll make its way to the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC this February.

Street Fighter IV will finally make its way to consoles on the 20th February, bringing the ever popular fighting game right into the next-generation.

February will also see the release of Dead Rising Chop Till You Drop for the Nintendo Wii, in addition to Neopets Puzzle Adventure for the Wii, DS and PC. Both are scheduled for the 27th February.

Resident Evil 5 will be ready for the public come March 13th. We predict this to be Capcom's best seller, especially on the back of Resident Evil 4's success.

Another big hitter waits in the wings, but has not yet been assigned a specific release date: Capcom's Bionic Commando brings the original title's unique swinging mechanic to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 this Spring. A PC version will be released at a later date.

If that's early 2009, what's left for the rest of the year Capcom?
