Resident Evil fans start petition for series to hit PSP

by Steven Bailey { Aug 9th 2007 at 7:00AM }

A petition has surfaced on the net, with the goal of pressuring Capcom into making a Resident Evil game for the PSP. The petition reads "We, PSP ( Playstation Portable ) owners would like Capcom to release to our beloved handheld game console at least one of the games from there famous survivor/horror franchise : Resident Evil .
We are also aware of the fact, that there is already a PSP version of the first Resident Evil game on the PSN ( Playstation Network ) but because of the lack of PS3 systems we cannot purchase this game .
Seeing the history of Resident Evil games on Playstation consoles, we can guarantee you, that the game will be a success ."

Personally, we'd like to see Capcom make an original Resident Evil entry for the PSP. Then again, when it comes down to it, we love the series enough to be happy with whatever we get (as long as it's not a Gun Survivor title).

[Thanks Joe!]

lol, 88 signatures. Since it's two seconds work to create or sign a petition on petitiononline and it's anonymous they don't have any real meaning at all, imho.

Thanks for putting up this petition , yes I admit that it wasnt hard to make , but its not anonymous , you just have to rad a bit :)
Hopefully this article will boost the signature numbers a bit :) At the moment there are 120 signatures and growing :D

why not just downgrade and download the games? i dont see a need to port old games unless they add new scenes/content and spruce it up a bit.

@Alex_p.

We want a new(original) PSP game that isn't obtained through grey-area means. Or in your case, clearly illegal.

Thanks for helping associate users of CFSs with piracy. /sarcasm

They could port the 6th gen versions not just the PS/N64/Jag/PC versions ;)
So please people we need as many votes as we can get :D

wait, i thought sony fanboys were too busy with their petition to boycott capcom because of devil may cry 4? now you like capcom? make up your minds already

zoen151 @ Aug 9th 2007 10:34AM

That reminds me. Has there been any news regarding Devil May Cry for the PSP? Or will it never happen?

RadioScott @ Aug 9th 2007 11:04AM

The petition might have been a little more impressive had the writer used "their" instead of "there" when referring to the "famous" franchise in that first sentence. But, what the hell. I signed that Send Paris Hilton to Jail petition, and that seemed to work. :-)

Sorry , I didnt noticed , also the ,,game" word was used a bit to much to , maybe next time when we will petition for a Halo game :P lol

Word of the street. @ Aug 9th 2007 12:27PM

I feel stupid for sigining that but then again is for Resident evil :D

Alien @ Aug 9th 2007 12:51PM

lol Thanks anyways :) We are one signature closer to achieve our goal :)

Amar @ Aug 9th 2007 3:19PM

Finally! I always wanted this to happen. I signed saying that DS got one and why can't we. I hope this all works out.

Alien @ Aug 9th 2007 3:55PM

Hopefully , there are allready over 530 signatures in 22 hours ... Hopefully we will reach double in a couple of days :)

With Silent Hill coming, i would've figured more survivor/horror would be a no-brainer

petition or no, i think this will occur

Darkside02 @ Aug 9th 2007 11:20PM

I hope they do make a psp resident evil. i think with what they've done with resident evil 4 and what i saw from five they could make a kickass original title or maybe remake the outbreak series so we can play them on wifi huh? that would kick ten kinds of ass.

Alien @ Aug 10th 2007 4:45AM

Hopefully Capcom will release sooner or later a RE title for the PSP ... 770 signatures btw :P

LAZoftheTamarinds @ Aug 11th 2007 12:29AM

I would love a RE game for psp! I'd like it to be an exclusive new title but wouldn't mind it being a remake of 1, 2 or 3. As long as it has RE 4 control style and behind the back camera. I mean you didn't really need a 2nd analog stick in RE 4. It could be like this:

L= Ready knife
R=Ready gun
X=Shoot/Action
[] and O= Run
Triangle=Map
Analog nub=Move/aim
D-pad=commands (like order ashley to come in RE 4.)
Start=menu
Select=game options.
That's how I would picture it.
