Here’s a bunch of new screens for Mikami’s Vanquish. The game looks gorgeous. Mikami himself has been telling the E3 faithful that the final game will be the ‘essence’ of Resi favourite Resident Evil 4.

“We didn’t really go back and reference Resident Evil 4,” Mikami told CVG.

“However, there are a few staff members from that project on the Vanquish team, so I suppose you could say that some of the ‘essence’ of that game has carried over into this one.”

Enjoy the screens.

Jun Takeuchi Will Step Away From Resident Evil 6

It’s not easy following on from Shinji Mikami, just ask Jun Takechi. Jun was the producer of Resident Evil 5 and the soon to be released Lost Planet 2 and he has expressed just how much pressure he felt steping into Shinji’s shoes at the helm of RE5.

“Yes, it’s true we did feel extreme pressure – and Mikami-san’s shadow – after Resi 4,” Takeuchi told Xbox World 360. “However, because we were creating the sequel to this huge franchise we wanted to make our fresh direction clear.”

“Personally, I don’t think I’m gonna deal with Resident Evil 6 at all – as far as the series is concerned I’m not planning to return until at least two more Olympics have passed.”

When Shinji Mikami announced that his next non-resident evil project was going to be a shooter with Bayonetta developers Platinum Games, the world listened but didn’t really care. Then he told us that this shooter would be an offline only affair and the world seemed to care even less. That said, the game, visually at least is beginning to really pack a punch as these new screens picked up by Kotaku can vouch for. All of a sudden you have our attention Mr. Mikami…..mu ha ha ha ha ha (evil laugh)!!
