It's no secret that dinosaurs make everything better. And I'm sure I'm not the only one who wishes Capcom would bring back Dino Crisis. It's become somewhat of a running joke on this site that there aren't enough dinosaurs in video games. But let's be real, it's not just a joke – it's the truth. Even the terrible Jurassic World movies raked in over $1 billion at the box office. And it certainly wasn't for the script or characters.
But why are there so few dinosaur games in general? And why is Capcom, with their successful Resident Evil remakes, not jumping on the opportunity to revive Dino Crisis? It seems like a no-brainer, right? Well, if that's not enough to convince them, I have another suggestion – a crossover game. Think Kingdom Hearts, but with Capcom franchises like Monster Hunter, Resident Evil, and Breath Of Fire.
One simple solution would be to confirm that Dino Crisis and Resident Evil are set in the same universe. There have been hints and Easter eggs over the years, but nothing has been officially confirmed. This alone would be a huge selling point for a Dino Crisis remake.
But my real inspiration for this idea comes from games like Marvel Vs. Capcom and Project X Zone. I firmly believe that Capcom has one of the best portfolios of classic franchises, second only to Nintendo. And if they wanted to, they could easily create their own console and fill it with their own games.
I've always been a fan of the Marvel Vs. Capcom games, not necessarily because of my love for Marvel, but because I enjoy seeing all the crossover characters from classic Capcom games. And while I would love a Capcom vs. Capcom game even more, it's unlikely to happen. However, a new Marvel Vs. Capcom game seems possible, especially after the recent remaster collection.
Another game that inspired this idea is Project X Zone, although it wasn't very well-received. The game's predecessor, Namco X Capcom, also fell short. But the concept of a tactical role-playing game with characters from different franchises is not crazy. It just hasn't been executed well.
My vision for a shared Capcom universe would be an action role-playing game similar to Kingdom Hearts, with a compelling story and fun gameplay. And it's not just for the sake of fan service. I believe this could be a great way to reintroduce people to classic Capcom franchises and even attract new players who have never experienced them before.
And let's be real, who wouldn't want to see a crossover between Dino Crisis and Ghosts 'N Goblins? It's just a fun idea that I wanted to put out there. Of course, I know it's unlikely to happen, but a gamer can dream, right?
