Masachika Kawata som producerar nya Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City säger i en intervju med Official Xbox Magazine att Capcom var noga med att Six Slant Games skulle förstå Resident Evil-konceptet ordentligt innan de fick förtroendet att utveckla serien.
"If we're going to start working with anybody outside of Capcom, Japanese developers as well, we run the risk of losing those particular elements. Therefore, the first thing we did was pass on the foundation of the Resident Evil history, and we made sure that Slant Six 'got' it - and I'm happy with the results.", säger Kawata.
Kawata medger för övrigt även att han hade lite fördomar om västerländska utvecklare, men att de kommit på skam: "To be honest, I had my own impression about Western people - being laid back and sitting on sofas, but even yesterday they came in early, on a Sunday, and gave us all sorts of recommendations. They wanted to do it, rather than being dragged out of bed if you like. So they've completely changed my perception about working with Western developers."
