kill this dog!
There's just too much proof of this being an obvious hoax.
The Horror has a tradition of having an april fools each year, usually with a serious tone showing some basic "proof" and then saying it's false some days later. (one year he claimed he was going to sell his site, another year he claimed he got a cease & desist from Capcom because he was distributing beta copies of some RE game) He also mentioned on the forums he didn't like people saying it's a hoax and he preferred people to just play along.
His own youtube account shows some similar modifications of RE4.
It's been known for a long time RE4 has had several abandoned features which you could enable via debug code (like thermal vision or slow motion). And there's also been lots of savegame editing and memory editing to achieve all kinds of stuff (like being able to play as any character in any part of the game... it's very buggy but a few of the characters like Hunk play bugfree the majority of the time). The stuff he's shown isn't very different: debug mode has already been known and shown lots of places, the "classic" camera is already in the game if you play the Japanese version and play as Ashley, playable Hunk has been possible a long time via savegame editing, the replaced enemies is something I haven't seen before but it sounds feasible by hacking the game. And replacing textures is a nobrainer thanks to the PC version.
And of course, the most obvious thing of all. He started the hoax days before 1st April and has been slowly revealing new stuff the following days, and now he says he won't reveal anything new before next week (and of course, next week it'll be April and then he'll finally admit it's just a hoax and people will start to cry).

I am still firm in my position to believe that this is not real.
Not unless Capcom says anything about it.

So, should I be allowed to just say, 'Buy the Wii version' in this thread if people tell me to keep dreaming when I ask for RE5Wii or GTA4Wii?
Sorry, seems even the GC version is hackable to high degrees: http://www.gameklip.net/video/1177voltron said:
Adding Hunk, replacing enemies and enabling the already existing "classic cameras" seems entirely possible by ripping the game and changing files around and doing some hex editing.

The addition of system warrior bait adds a lot, imo.
