Word around the water cooler is suggesting that Microsoft has made a very large cash offer to Capcom to make Resident Evil 5 a timed exclusive for the Xbox 360. How much money and how long the exclusivity will last is unknown.
Something like this honestly wouldn’t surprise me. We all know Microsoft dropped $50 million on Rockstar for the exclusive GTA4 DLC which hasn’t materialized yet. Just how big do they thing RE5 is going to be? Is it worth that much cash to secure it for the 360 for a couple months? Microsoft has some deep pockets. We’ll see what happens when E3 rolls around next month.
