Yoshiki Okamoto
A great fan of Shinji Mikami's "Resident Evil", Sugimura became involved with Capcom when he was introduced to Yoshiki Okamoto during the production of "Resident Evil 2". Initially consulted on a trial basis, he ended up writing the complete story for the game and, together with Okamoto and two others, co-founded the now-defunct Capcom writers studio Flagship in April 1997 and would later work on other Capcom titles such as "Clock Tower 3", "Dino Crisis 2", "Dino Stalker", "Dino Crisis 3", and the first three main installments of the "Onimusha" series.
