Two more Capcom titles canceled?

http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/action/r...s_6073294.html

Kind of surprising, I thought Red Dead Revolver (PS2) and Dead Phoenix (GC) looked pretty cool. I'm still not too shaken up over Capcom All Stars being canceled (again).

Bah... Red Dead Revolver looked pretty good. I'm not really into westerns, but I wish they'd use the genre more in video games, I think it works well for gaming... no?

red dead revolver seemed kind of good. I am surprised they did not release it since it was supposed to be done.

Heck if they had released it for a great $19.99 price i bet they would have sold quite a few copies just based on price alone for a new game.

What's wrong with Capcom? they're letting their best classic franchises rot away - Megaman, Street Fighter, etc, etc. They're even blowing their new franchises - REZero sucked, as did Devil May Cry 2 and the more recent bomb, Chaos Legion. P.N.03 doesn't look too hot from some reviews i've read and Viewtiful Joe, while intriguing, doesn't look to be the hit Capcom needs.

RE0 was fun for me....Did not care for the first Devil May Cry which in turn led me away from DMC 2.

Looking forward to the Gamecube exclusive RE4 and the PS2 RE Outbreak!!!

REZero had mixed reactions. But sales were the real indicator; it sold much worse than capcom anticipated;

I though they were having trouble meeting the early demand for Viewtiful Joe in Japan?

They ran apology ads in Japan because they couldn't keep the game in stock. There's crazy Viewtiful Joe merch on e-bay. This game will rock.

I liked RE Zero too. Sucks about Dead Phoenix though, it was looking pretty good. Closest thing to a Kid Icarus sequel we've ever come to.

Why was everyone excited about Red Dead?

I don't think there was a playable version out yet was there? I thought it was basically another shooter.

I liked RE0 quite a bit but I'm sure they are just looking at the numbers.

I don't understand why they don't release the game if they already spent a lot of time and money and it is completed.
