Title: Pure EVIL
Post by: joshnickerson on November 14, 2004, 03:32:02 PM

Perhaps this is Capcom's way of making up for the RE4 blunder...

And do my eyes decieve me or does the bottom left corner say "Resident Evil 4: Free Demo Disc"?

It's probably part of the original marketing plan, regardless.

Including the demo disc is cool but it's kind of a total waste of time for RE fans who already have those games (which would be  pretty much all of them).  I hope Capcom isn't taking lessons from Nintendo regarding demo disc distribution.

In the words of Lord Spencer, "...nothing more than a money-spinning tool."

The box art looks cool though.

$220 AUD for the games seperate or $40-ish AUD for this PURE EVIL pack. HMMMMM. There's no way it'll make an OZZZZIIEE release, not when Capcom/THQ could be eating more hats made of $110.

Well, for now they are and I doubt shareholders still give a damn about those games.

I don't think this is to make up for it, because I'm sure it was announced before the "RE4 Blunder."

Maybe Shinji Mikamiki(sp?) is calling sony Pure Evil indirectly.    Conspiracy!

While I was hoping for the box set like the one that was release in japan awhile back, i guess this will have to do. I never got around to getting either so this is good for me.

I still wish though that capcom got off it's rear-end and actually put the time and effort into RE 2,3, CV like they did with RE0 & RE1. Couple all that with RE4 and thats what I would call a pure evil collection!

Nup, THQ have kept them at $110 all this time. Which is $10-$20 more expensive than a normal game. ;__;

Thats a good deal for the mainstream.

seems like a nice deal. if they would throw in 2, 3, and Code Veronica for a few extra bucks, then it would be even better. it is likely an attempt to appeal to the disheartened GCN owners. poor us. *sigh* ah well.

If they really cared the fix up 2, 3, and code veronica all REmake like.
