It even managed to break some fundamental gameplay systems, like the inventory.
Of course, a lot of people loved it because, let’s face it, you could be playingAliens: Colonial Marineswith your mates and still have a giggle. Co-op is a great tool for masking creative bankruptcy.
Capcom’s total sales are up 17 percent this year and net income is up 20 percent. Also,Resident Evil: RevelationsandPhoenix Wright Ace Attorney: Dual Destiniesreportedly “basically achieved projected sales.”
