Capcom teases new game called Flock News

Capcom is planning to show off a new game called Flock at E3.
The publisher said as much on its brilliantly named community site "Capcom Unity" as it outlined plans for the Los Angeles trade show.
Described as "a new super-secret project", all we know is that Capcom US PR svengali Chris Kramer has said it's not "the Unreal Engine 3 game".
"Keep trying, you'll never get it, unless someone spills the beans early," he added in a comment on the original post.
Sadly Capcom Europe wasn't going to be that someone when we got in touch this morning. "I can't do anything other than confirm it'll be at E3," a spokesperson said.
Whatever could Flock be? Something to do with sheep, hopefully. Or perhaps to do with games journalists following publishers around the world to see what a single word means.
Resident Evil 5, Street Fighter IV, Dark Void, Bionic Commando, Bionic Commando Rearmed, Mega Man 9, Neopets, MotoGP '08, Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix and Plunder are the other games on show next week.
We'll be there, as ever, although if you'd prefer to read about most of those games right now, you can head to our extensive Captivate 08 coverage for key previews and - for want of a better word - a flock of news and assets.

If Mega Man 9 turns out to be good I couldn't care less about the other games. I have to admit though that Capcoms output does look promising as always. I just wish RE5 was announced for the Wii because I absolutely loved the controls of RE4 and can't really imagine going back to a controller. But knowing my I probably can't resist and will get it anyway.

A flock of sheep? Maybe it's something to do with 'groups' or something, involves more then one person? A big online multiplayer game perhaps?

A flock can be birds, sheep, goats, or churchgoers if my vocabulary serves me correctly.
Sheep would be my preference too. |

As usual Eurogamer's reporting skills are shit
The game is not called Flock It is a PROJECT NAME. i.e the real name of the game will be revealed at the show! so you the consumer cannot guess the name Always the last to have new information from the gaming industry. Eurogamer you need to sort your shit out I heard this about this alredy yesterday on the brillant blog site KOTAKU If your sister site gamesindustry.biz can do it surely you can It is your duty to serve us european gamers. The latest news first. Surely you be able to confirm reports first. If you had a dedicated rumor team? It's time you get journalists who know what they are talking about and not knock off journalists who could'nt get a job with a magazine or a newspaper And stop spending so much time in the Brighton sun. It's killing your website |
