The PSX would MURDER it though. Unless it was maybe the PSX3.

Wouldnt PC? PC _ports_ are always worse because developers have to keep in mind tons of various and not so-so-so-top hardware. For me, PC games arent good at all (unless you play some RPG or strategy) for the same reason as porting. This is what consoles are for (to play games, of course, sonny).

I find PC games to be more enjoyable than many console games. The higher resolutions and higher res textures make the games look great. Of course you get the bad ports but thats not the PCs fault its the damn devs fault. They could so easily port many of the xbox's games to the pc but they dont want to make the extra effort...

But alot of those games arne't calibrated to work on a keyboard and mouse set up. Even though it's happening, DMC3 isn't quite a keyboard and mouse game methinks.

It definately isn't.
I think we've had this PC/Console genre discussion before. Refer to my previous posts if such is the case!

Think of it as a bonus for those who never bought a GameCube. Now you get to own the complete set so far.

You may want to consider selling your GameCube now, instead of having difficulty getting rid of it in later years.

Having started playing the prequel again, I don't think it would look great with the PS2 graphics. Sorry.

Why wouldnt it? Its just pre-rendered backgrounds with high poly models similar to Outbreaks. I think it would look fine, especially since you get a near 3x disc space to play with

Not so sure about that, the load times would probably be twice as long. And from what I recall reading a lot of the technology developed for those games was created along side Nintendo themselves, I do believe the game would probably look great as far as PS2 goes but a lot of detail would certainly be lost. I remember reading how they had problems with the pre rendered backgrounds as some of them are actually pre rendered videos (or perhaps to the equivalent type of a gif image?). I don’t really know that much about them, I remember having some lecture about them (obviously not the type that was used in the game, but still). And even the still pre rendered frames are interactive in certain places as to react to light and such. And in Zero they would probably experience problems attempting to recreate the leach effect on PS2 hardware.
But with all that in consideration Capcom are smart people, can never doubt them as a developer. But I certainly don’t think it would be as simple as porting it over.
I’m not really that bothered if they port them all, I will certainly buy them but I doubt they will do anything to change the experience. I wonder what Mikami is thinking about during all this.

I wouldn't mind getting the Resident Evil's for PS2. right now Resident Evil 1 is the only game I have and have had for gamecube since I owned it for 2 years. Someday I'll get RE0 for it.
