Capcom Comments on Resident Evil Racism
The Escapist writes: "Resident Evil 5's producer has confirmed that black people are participating in the game's development.

Sony: PS3 is the only global option for 3rd parties
Platform holder says the PS3 leads in Japan, Europe and has the momentum in North America. Speaking to MTV Multiplayer, Peter Dille, Vice President, Sony Computer Entertainment of America, has played down the importance of losing Final Fantasy XIII exclusivity on PS3, stating he believes PlayStation is still the home of the Final Fantasy franchise. "What you have with Final Fantasy XIII is a lot like what they've paid for with GTA. It's not an exclusive on their platform. It's now a cross-platform game," said Dille. "I think if you look at how GTA behaved in the marketplace and how it drove - or didn't drive - either console, that's what I'm talking about. Consumers responded to GTA on the PS3 just as they did on the 360. And it becomes a bit of a jump ball. But it didn't rise the tide for them."
