Resident Evil 5 might get a PC version.

Gothic Girl | June 05, 2008 | News | PC Playstation 3 
Producer Jun Takeuchi recently hinted that Resident Evil 5 might also be released on the PC.
Although Takeuchi confirmed that the game is currently only being released for 360 and PS3, it wouldn't be out of the question for RE5 to make it onto PC too.
Capcom producer Jun Takeuchi has said that Resident Evil 5's main development platform is the PC. When Eurogamer asked Takeuchi why Capcom was showing the Xbox 360 build of Resident Evil 5 instead of the PlayStation 3 verseion at Capcom's Captivate 08 event, Takeuchi said that since Capcom was asked to show RE5 up and running on a console, due to their hardware similarities it was just faster to port the PC build over to the Xbox 360.

    It isn't bizarre for the game to make it to PC. 4 made its way to the PC eventually so this doesn't suprise me. I was suprised when it originally wasn't named on the PC.
