- zetamilk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11This news + finding out that Team ICO is working on a new game = Awesome
- ProfChaosOmega, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10thats right. IN YOUR FACE CAPCOM.
- motang, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Sweet, this is really good news. This studio has some very good talents.
- djbelieve, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Why | is the word [news] mentioned in the title twice? [news]
- jacksons98, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Viewtiful Joe was one of my favorite action games of all time. So fun!
Okami was great too. I like developers that aren't afraid to try new things and that's what Clover was good at. - guitarh3ro, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5So, this means that Okami could still come to the Wii?
- Goosey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That is up to Capcom, who doubtlessly own the IP.
- PureGamer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Oh man, that's great. The news about Clover closing it's doors was pretty sad, but hopefully they'll continue through this and keep making good games.
- logicalnoise, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Okami is owned by capcom so maybe but not made by clover.
- daeyeth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2So I was wondering, does Capcom own the rights to Okami? If so, that's too bad. Would been awesome to see Seeds put together a port of Okami onto the Wii.
- TheNik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I think it would be really interesting to see what they can accomplish with next-gen tech. Let's hope for the best, folks.
- howie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I don't get it. Why would they close down a successful studio?
- ocha, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Viewtiful Joe and Okami are Capcom IP so I somehow doubt they'll work on those again.
Though I have confidence in the new content they should be able to make with Atsushi Inaba is at the helm - chocobomog, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Rumor was Capcom didn't close down Clover. All of the Clover employees quit in order to create a new company and Capcom was chose to close the division rather than re-populate it with less talented employees.
- probune, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Why does everyone want Okami to come to the Wii?
- deathdefyer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1FOUND or FOUNDED?
- Cyber_Akuma, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1While its sad that they will have to completely start over with none of their old IP and characters, im glad the studio is back at least. I guess its better to concentrate on making new games rather then releasing sequels and spinoffs of old IP. Though I heard that there was supposed to be 3 VJ games in the main storyline and they only finished two of them (not counting the spinoffs).
- Moebaca, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This is big
- Epyn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0YES totally awesome.
Here's hoping they make some more titles that prove new concepts and gameplay is worth investing in. - umbrellaofdoom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Freakin' sweet. :D
Long live Clover. *salute* - striker1211, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Cue torrent reference...
- Macistan, on 10/12/2007, -6/+0That's nothing, look what's being coded by a single programmer...an actual innovative 2D platform game.
