Resident Evil producer Masachika Kawata has said Capcom isn’t likely to return to Onimusha or Dino Crisis any time soon. “Capcom has obviously never shied away from bringing back our older IPs to new generations, but I do think it’s more important for us to focus on creating new IP as we move forward,” he told VideoGamer when asked about the fan-favourite properties; Kawata had worked on both. Capcom USA recently surveyed fans about their preferences on the treatment of back-catalogue properties, though.

Siliconera reports the ESRB has rated Dino Crisis 2 for PlayStation 3 and PSP.

With SCEA as publisher, it looks like we’ll see a US PlayStation Network release of the PSOne action horror game.

The first Dino Crisis is already available on the US PSN, along with other Capcom classics such as Resident Evil 2 and 3.

Here’s hoping they’ve long since fired the guy who suggested it’d be “incredible” to put dinosaurs in space.

Thanks, SixthAxis and GAF.

Feel old now, don’t you? Here’s the Wiki page and there’s a run down of the franchises history on 9Lives.
