Resident Evil 5 coming to the PC?
Capcom producer Jun Takeuchi has previously stated that Resident Evil 5’s main development platform is on the PC. When Eurogamer asked Takeuchi why Capcom was showing the Xbox 360 build of Resident Evil 5 instead of the PlayStation 3 version at Capcom’s Captivate 08 event, Takeuchi clarified that Capcom was requested to show RE5 up and running on a console, due to their hardware similarities it was just faster to port the PC build over to the Xbox 360.
But while this will surely start rumors of the survival horror game coming to the PC, Capcom bluntly told gaming site IGN, “We’ve only confirmed Resident Evil 5 for the Xbox 360 and PS3 at this time.” Bummer.

It’ll come. That’s the same thing they said for RE4. However, does it really matter? These guys don’t put any love when porting a game over to the PC.
Take RE4 as an example. You can’t even use a mouse for aiming! The idiots never realized that one of the PC’s main strengths (aside from its detail) is its control scheme, which is very suitable for aiming thanks to the mouse and keyboard combo.
