I was sent this goody by a friend who works at Capcom's San Fransisco building. He spied an artist working on what appeared to be boxart for an upcoming port of Resident Evil 4 for the XBOX 360 and PS3 entitled "Resident Evil 4 Classic Edition". Details are sketchy, but from what my contact could gather, the game will feature Hunk more than before. When pressed further, they said Hunk would be getting his own story-campaign, similar to Ada's Separate Ways scenario in the PS2/PC/Wii versions. I'm attempting to get direct captures of the boxart, and not a quick cellphone grab but this will have to do for now. We'll have more to report on this in the coming days!

I'd buy it.

beelzebozo · (03-26-2008, 05:06 AM)

would be great, but i doubt it.

cryptic · (03-26-2008, 05:06 AM)

Believe.

Costanza · (03-26-2008, 05:06 AM)

:lol So fake

Tendo · (03-26-2008, 05:08 AM)

It'd be my third copy of it and I'd buy it without hesitation.

TheGrayGhost · (03-26-2008, 05:09 AM)

I wouldn't put it past Capcom. I hate the game, but it's embarassing even to me that such a highly acclaimed game is whored out with such poor taste.

Shawn128 · (03-26-2008, 05:09 AM)

You'd think that if they don't want it to look fake, they wouldn't have added blur.

I MEAN COME ON PEOPLE

neojubei · (03-26-2008, 05:09 AM)

This is Capcom so yea I'll believe it. what's another million seller RE4 game to help fund RE5.

Costanza · (03-26-2008, 05:09 AM)

Already kind of shot down by Capcom on their official forums:

Wow. Really? We work in San Francisco? I didn't know that. Why does my business card say we're in San Mateo? Darn it, I need to get it updated.

Also. We have no artists that work in Dev here... Further more, All RE comes out of Japan. None of it comes from CEI.

MisterHero · (03-26-2008, 05:09 AM)

Reaction:

Stage 1 - Oh Capcom

Stage 2 - April Fool's? I lol'd

Stage 3 - Not April Fool's?

Stage 4 - Oh Capcom

Lifeonmars? · (03-26-2008, 05:09 AM)

I'd hit that.

PepsimanVsJoe · (03-26-2008, 05:10 AM)

April Fool's a bit early eh?

ManaByte · (03-26-2008, 05:10 AM)

Got milk?

Sho_Nuff82 · (03-26-2008, 05:10 AM)

With my GCN broken, I'd buy it. and finally finish it

Better not be 'next-gen' priced, $19.99 or bust. it would be 39.99 sadly

Where's my HD Code Veronica remake Capcom?

And why would someone go through the trouble of faking this, knowing that RE5 is actually coming out for PS360?

~Kinggi~ · (03-26-2008, 05:10 AM)

Oh, i would certainly love this. Totally love this. Would be fantastic to play this before RE 5 releases all over again with hi res graphics. But it just seems like one of those too good to be true scenarios. A real shame. :(

_Alkaline_ · (03-26-2008, 05:10 AM)

BAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

Insane Metal · (03-26-2008, 05:11 AM)

Hunk? Wasn´t it Hank? Or am I Insane?

jet1911 · (03-26-2008, 05:11 AM)

I'd buy it. Again.

Ploid 3.0 · (03-26-2008, 05:12 AM)

Blurry screen? Check. I have yet to play this game. If it's a great quality, and at a low price I'll think about it (PS3).

San Mateo could be considered San Francisco in the same way the Tokyo Games Show isn't actually in Tokyo.

Still, if it's shot down, then good. :D

Going off the picture, Hunk's campaign will be about quiting drinking "for real this time."

Tormentoso · (03-26-2008, 05:12 AM)

Great game but i think capcom is milking RE4 to the extreme.

Big-E · (03-26-2008, 05:13 AM)

Same.

GalacticAE · (03-26-2008, 05:13 AM)

I warnedst the internets and I was rights.

Grecco · (03-26-2008, 05:13 AM)

So Fake

Prolly would buy it though

Livin_Lovin · (03-26-2008, 05:14 AM)

Fake, but still do want.

Jamesfrom818 · (03-26-2008, 05:14 AM)

As awesome as Hunk is, I'm not going to rebuy the game just for him. Well, unless its $30 and it comes during a dry period.

PolyGone · (03-26-2008, 05:14 AM)

so how many heads does Mikami have left now?

witness · (03-26-2008, 05:15 AM)

Even if it were real I wouldn't buy it cause after getting it on Wii recently, I would not want to go back to playing it with a regular pad. Aiming and knife control is worlds better.

kenta · (03-26-2008, 05:15 AM)

We need a prequel featuring Mike

More:

I tried to point out was that any sort of "creditable" rumor would have facts checked as much as possible. SF offices? Really? The location would be EASIEST fact to check, seeing how it's in my location information right next to my avatar for all to see.

I'm done. Think what you like. Be ready for a letdown of epic proportions. I'm just trying to help because I don't want anyone to have their hopes built up for no reason whatsoever and be let down.

I'd quadruple dip.

Redd · (03-26-2008, 05:17 AM)

Doubtful but if true would buy Resident Evil 4 for the fourth time.

blindrocket · (03-26-2008, 05:18 AM)

So fake.

D-X · (03-26-2008, 05:19 AM)

Fake or not - do not want

Hurry up with 5

Soooooooooo.................you're tellin' me there's a chance.

It came out in Japan on March 24th. Jonnyram said so.

GHG · (03-26-2008, 05:23 AM)

Please be real. PLEASE.

pilonv1 · (03-26-2008, 05:23 AM)

why would you capitalise "Classic" but not "edition"? smh

Costanza · (03-26-2008, 05:23 AM)

Another denial from a different Capcom guy:
http://www.capcom.com/BBS/showpost.p...4&postcount=29

I appreciate the passion that the community has for RE (especially for RE4). That said, I hate seeing people's expectations raised in some unwarranted fashion (and inevitably, I'm sure the Internet will spin it as something we've officially announced and subsequently delayed or cancelled when it doesn't show up ).

I'll stand by the third post I made in this thread. There are no current plans.

But if it makes you all happy, believe what you will.

I smell April fools somewhere.

I'm positive this is a bullshit traffic stunt/leading up to April Fools.

ATF487 · (03-26-2008, 05:24 AM)

And I just started playing the Wii version again. Damn!

Just release RE5 already you cocks

Yea, more RE4. I can't wait for Resident Evil 4 Portable Edition for PSP/DS.

ENOUGH WITH THIS SHIT ALREADY!!!

I want RE5.

kthxbye

lynux3 · (03-26-2008, 05:27 AM)

I'd hit it.

Valkyr Junkie · (03-26-2008, 05:27 AM)

But it's a GC exclusive

DuckRacer · (03-26-2008, 05:27 AM)

The ESRB is smaller and not in its usual position (should be lifted up a tad and to the left).

Fake.
