Over on the Evil Avatar forums fitbabits has word from “several independent sources” that Microsoft is on the verge of completing a deal to purchase Capcom. Previously rumored and shot down, the rumor mill is again stirring. Just like any other rumor, don’t believe a word until announced by the two companies. Don’t keep your fingers crossed, for the second time.

Let’s suppose this does happen. That great white game in the sky Resident Evil 5 (BioHazard 5) would become 360 exclusive right? If that’s the case then forge on with the purchase Microsoft. We’ve been waiting far to long for Street Fighter 4 if there ever is one.

(UPDATE 1-Gamespot is saying this rumor is Bogus-Link)
