Capcom having troubles with PS2 port of Resident Evil 4

Well, if you'd like to dissect it.............??

No really,... it's that flash of an eye thing.
When I see a name that is similar to something,... my logic goes poop.

When I post,... I always go back, and look at a name, to make sure it is correct.

It's an anal thing.

Anyways,... it IS the internet.

Seriously,... did you really think I knew what part of the world you were from??? Looking at my name, could you tell where I was from??? Really,... when I think of Texas, I think of ranchers and oil rigs, and Retro,...not peoples' crede.

Well,... I really didn't mean it that way,... and my apology is sincere.

ok... so you went back to double check my name and saw that it WAS patel, which is why you referred to my arguments as "turban tactics". Or was it just a coincidence that I happen to be from india and you knew that while looking at my username.. twice.

You're not making any sense, but it doesn't matter.

Why are the arguments still going? It says false as you can see:

RUMOR: According to the company, the PlayStation 2 is the source of some technological issues in porting Capcom's RE4.
This story has been proven false by Capcom since our publish date. Click here to read our updated story.

In the latest issue of the Japanese magazine CG World, Capcom spoke out on the GameCube-to-PlayStation 2 port of its popular Resident Evil 4 title. According to CG World, Capcom has run into some technological problems while trying to adapt RE4 to the PlayStation 2 architecture.

One of the most problematic issues in porting the title has come down to memory size. The GameCube features primarily 24 bits of memory, whereas PlayStation 2 only produces 4 to 8 bits of memory.

Further, Capcom blames Sony’s hardware yet again when dealing with polygons. The GameCube version of Resident Evil 4’s main star, Leon S. Kennedy, pushes approximately 10,000 polygons, while the PlayStation 2 version currently renders 5,000. Capcom went on to say that the character model of Snake from Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater on PlayStation 2 features 4,000 polygons, and that that was roughly the same amount of polygons that its villagers (which RE4 often features handfuls of on the screen simultaneously) are made up of.

That said, Capcom said that the PlayStation 2 does have at least one aspect to its hardware that could come in helpfully: the ability to make use of more textures at a time. Still, the publisher said that there must be a balance between the number of textures and the quality of them.

Currently, the PlayStation 2 version of Resident Evil 4 is scheduled to release sometime in late 2005, presumably as a holiday title for Sony’s console. Meanwhile, the GameCube incarnation has been on retail shelves since January 11, 2005.

[quote name='stocker08'][quote name='dental_regurgitation'][quote name='cheapass Gundam'][quote name='stocker08']i just got into RE a few weeks ago after buying 3 and CV for DC. They are very fun but i am a poontang when it comes to scary games.........[/quote]

Those aren't all that scary. Try Silent Hill (original) or Fatal Frame and you will be scared silly.[/quote]

Silent Hill definitely has a more disturbing sense of fright... Resident Evil is the king of jumps and spooks.[/quote]

oh i know, i played that silent hill 3 game, the Bunny Rabbit sitting on the bench almost made me piss my pants, very disturbing, i just dont like the enemies in Resident Evil, like the giant moths, or the guys who spit out cockroaches............giant moths laying eggs on your back, it makes me tremble.[/quote]

Anything laying eggs in me makes me wana so you are not a poontang... its nasty. And cockroaches in peoples mouths... yeah... I spend $90 every three months for Terminix to eliminate the possibility of this happening. Insects = nasty...
