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 · Mar 26, 2008

would be great, but i doubt it.

cryptic · Mar 26, 2008

Believe.

Costanza · Mar 26, 2008

:lol So fake

Tendo · Mar 26, 2008

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

TheGrayGhost · Mar 26, 2008

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 · Mar 26, 2008

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 · Mar 26, 2008

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

Costanza · Mar 26, 2008

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 · Mar 26, 2008

Reaction:

Stage 1 - Oh Capcom

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

Stage 3 - Not April Fool's?

Stage 4 - Oh Capcom

Lifeonmars? · Mar 26, 2008

I'd hit that.

PepsimanVsJoe · Mar 26, 2008

April Fool's a bit early eh?

ManaByte · Mar 26, 2008

Got milk?

Sho_Nuff82 · Mar 26, 2008

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~ · Mar 26, 2008

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_ · Mar 26, 2008

BAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

Insane Metal · Mar 26, 2008

Hunk? Wasn´t it Hank? Or am I Insane?

jet1911 · Mar 26, 2008

I'd buy it. Again.

Ploid 3.0 · Mar 26, 2008

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.

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

Tormentoso · Mar 26, 2008

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

Same.

GalacticAE · Mar 26, 2008

I warnedst the internets and I was rights.

Grecco · Mar 26, 2008

So Fake

Prolly would buy it though

Jamesfrom818 · Mar 26, 2008

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.

Livin_Lovin · Mar 26, 2008

Fake, but still do want.

PolyGone · Mar 26, 2008

so how many heads does Mikami have left now?

witness · Mar 26, 2008

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 · Mar 26, 2008

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.

MrDaravon · Mar 26, 2008

I'd quadruple dip.

Redd · Mar 26, 2008

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

blindrocket · Mar 26, 2008

So fake.

D-X · Mar 26, 2008

Fake or not - do not want

Hurry up with 5

tanod · Mar 26, 2008

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

GHG · Mar 26, 2008

Please be real. PLEASE.

pilonv1 · Mar 26, 2008

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

Costanza · Mar 26, 2008

Another denial from a different Capcom guy:
http://www.capcom.com/BBS/showpost.php?p=500664&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 · Mar 26, 2008

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

Just release RE5 already you cocks

Mikami = Hydra, confirmed?

Insane Metal · Mar 26, 2008

ENOUGH WITH THIS SHIT ALREADY!!!

I want RE5.

kthxbye

lynux3 · Mar 26, 2008

I'd hit it.

Valkyr Junkie · Mar 26, 2008

But it's a GC exclusive

DuckRacer · Mar 26, 2008

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

Fake.
