Capcom's pulling the plug on its media-centric Gamers Day event, replacing the happening with <a href="http://blog.capcom.com/archives/1079">another media-centric summit</a> called CAPTIVATE08 (get it? CAPtivate). This time around, however, the new event will open its doors to a few lucky members of the Capcom community. <br /><br />Like the <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2007/04/13/capcom-gamers-day-2007-round-up/">Gamers Day events</a>, Capcom promises a lot of announcements of new games, as well as updates on in-development titles like <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/resident-evil-5"><em>Resident Evil 5</em></a> and <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/street-fighter-iv"><em>Street Fighter IV</em></a>. In its announcement, Capcom does not cite a primary reason for killing Gamers Day, but does state that five members of Capcom Unity -- think official <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/capcom">Capcom</a> fan club -- will be able to attend the summit. More information is promised on the official blog. The 2008 summit will take place in Las Vegas this May.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"> </p><p><a href=http://blog.capcom.com/archives/1079>Read</a> | <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/03/31/capcom-kills-gamers-day-event-announces-captivate08-vegas/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/forward/1153421/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/03/31/capcom-kills-gamers-day-event-announces-captivate08-vegas/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>capcom</category><category>capcom-gamers-day</category><category>captivate</category><category>captivate-08</category><category>captivate08</category><dc:creator>Scott Jon Siegel</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-03-31T14:30:00+00:00</dc:date></item></channel></rss>
