From Capcom Europe's twitter:
"announcement at 5pm BST of Capcoms line up for E3... watch this space."
That's about four hours away, so i'll update this when all is apparently revealed.
There have been rumours of a Ninja Theory-developed DMC5, so i'll be interested to see if it comes to light, though maybe they won't mention developers until E3 proper.
Any last minute predictions? Expectations? Hype?
E3 2010
Concept »
The 2010 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) took place at the Los Angeles Convention Center in Los Angeles, California on June 15-17.
Capcom set to reveal line-up later today.
i was going to post this earlier, but didnt because im torn about this. Do they announce just what we know so far, to save some surprises for E3? or do they announce everything at E3. Capcom doesnt have a press conference like Ubisoft or EA, so they might announce everything now, I guess we'll see.
What do we even know that is coming from Capcom for sure? MvC3 and Dead Rising 2? That dynasty warriors style game too... anything else? Oh Okamiden for DS.
It's hard to say really. Even if they were to announce everything, it would be by name alone. There's a lot to say and show at the event itself.
There are still surprises as to how a game looks and has been changed, or who is developing it. We could potentially see Resident Evil 6, and i'm sure Takeuchi said at one point that it would end up feeling different, probably becoming even more western influenced. There are also reveals about already announced games, like the full-line up for MvC3.
I'll be interested to see how far they go then. If there are glaring omissions then I suppose they will be more big announcements at the show. They don't have their own presser, but I could see any important game reveals being shown at one of the big three conferences, like that DMC4 teaser from way back when (at least I think that was shown at E3).
its just that if there was a RE6, or even a DMC5 or something, seems like something that would be in a MS or Sony press conference thing, not on a list of games to be at E3 1 week before it starts, you know? They will probably say "we have 6 or 7 games at E3, but 2 are secret!" or something like that. Then everyone will speculate big titles, and end up disapointed when its dino crisis on PS1 classics or something :P" It's hard to say really.

Wasn't the original RE5 trailer first shown at a Microsoft presser?
Anyway it seems too soon for an RE6 announcement but I wouldn't be too surprised to see one for DMC5.
Since Capcom don't have their own conference and aren't platform holders, I don't think there's any real pressure on them to have some crazy reveal to stun audiences. They just want to show their games, and aren't driven by the desire to have the best conference and 'win E3'. Saying something like DMC5 and RE6 will be at the show is exciting for sure, but it's a given anyway that such a game will exist eventually. The big surprises will be the actual game details and seeing them in action, so I don't think it would harm them in anyway to announce everything by name only.
as expected, they only annouced the games we know about:
Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds
Ōkamiden
Bionic Commando Rearmed 2
Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes
Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective
Dead Rising 2
Dead Rising 2: CASE ZERO
MotoGP 09/10
We also have a couple surprises in store so make sure to visit us here at the Capcom Europe Blog for all the latest news on Capcom at E3
