Capcom's Captivate Event Roundup: Street Fighter X Tekken, Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, Asura's Wrath, Dragon's Dogma, And More

Ordinarily, it wouldn't be a news story that a video game allows players to wipe their save data and start again from the beginning, any more than we'd write a story about a game that features cut-scenes and dual-stick controls. But when the game is Resident Evil: Revelations, it's a story.

Remember, the last Resident Evil game, "Mercenaries," didn't allow players to reset save games without it being a huge issue, leading many to suggest that Capcom's motivation was to discourage used game sales of the title. Others countered that they didn't allow multiple saves in Mercs because it's not a story-based game -- it's a set of missions where you are encouraged to beat your own times, where Revelations is plot-based.

Whatever the case, Capcom seems to have learned its lesson, and included the ability to erase all save data easily. God bless America!

    I maintain my boycott of everything Capcom. Only when there is a company of such malicious vastitude toward the ignorance of their customers does a situation where you can't erase your save data become apparent. Capcom will continue to insult our intelligence as a collective group and will continue to attempt to pull fast ones on us unless we stand together and hurt them in the only place that it matters... their wallet.

    I saw the headline and mistook it for AC:R... only to find out it's about Resident Evil and really isn't even that big of a deal. WHY U NO BRING BIG NEWS?
