Allow me to put it this way...why should I trust the PR guy who has a proven history of getting shit wrong? That's like saying I should go to the takeaway where I got that food that gave me food poisoning...twice. Someone mentioned that he's the head of the PR department? The maybe he should assign this crap to someone else?
As to why I think he may not have played the earlier games...well, the chainsaw comment instantly springs to mind. If he'd played the earlier ones you'd think he may have some idea that the only time the things have shown up is in the newest ones? And the not knowing Alexia...when he was in an interview regarding the series. It's not as though it was a RE question outta nowhere, yet he still forgot a major villain in the series. Now, I don't expect him to remember every detail. But surely, before going to an interview about a specific game series, you would brush on the details if you didn't tend to remember them?
But the simple fact of the matter is I don't tend to trust him on these things now. I probably should on something like this, I suppose. It's a marketing thing after all. Then again, RE5's marketing tagline was 'Fear you can't forget'...maybe it's a case I just don't trust Capcom, full stop, after all the stuff we got told during RE5's production that was wrong or changed. Such as the game lenght, fear and puzzle inclusion, etc.
