How can it be the Resident Evil 7 collector's edition, if it doesn't even come with Resident Evil 7?

Capcom was seemingly getting into people's good graces again with how this game actually looked, they had to make sure they would muck it up somehow.

It's worth the hundred Euros in my opinion, plus it's a good move for people who buy digital games but still want physical loot. Also, if you actually look at the Gamestop Italy website you can bundle it with the game and get 10 Euros off the game. I preordered here in America for 179.99 With the season pass.

At first i was in disbelief, but it actually makes alot of sense. Hear me out before you stop reading....

Previously, you had a choice of buying the basic game, or collectors editions right? And if you bought the basic version but later wished you had bought the collectors edition, you would have needed to buy the game twice right?

Well, no longer.

You buy the game, and then decide if you want the collectors pieces as an additional bolt on purchase. And you can choose to buy this bolt on purchase whenever you like without having to buy the actual game twice.

See....it makes absolutely perfect sense 😁

Then why is this a thing? retarded ass idiots that pay for this.. there's no hope for you.

Dafuq?

I'm maybe reading into it too much but the recent collectors editions not launching with the game leads me to believe publishers are releasing these so we can then buy the version we want rather than tying stock up in a version that may not sell as well.

Provided the content is value for money I don't see a problem doing it this way. There's also people who want the collectables but don't want the game and it allows them to stock it in a lot of other stores that may not sell games. There's also the whole line of thought that not packaging a game with it means the collectable can stay sealed and potentially earn value.

Then again I might be making all this up and it's just a clever ploy to make us spend more money.

As i said before eff crapcom

To hell with these 2016 era game developers and publishers.

As a collector of consoles and games this sorta thing would stop me buying collectors additions, what are these company's thinking

What's the point then? Pure greed, boycott time.

Anyone that buys into this is a bonafide idiot.

Well, between this an the Mass Effect collector's editions, what's going on with pre-orders?

I was going to play devils advocate then I changed my mind.. this is stupid.

I understand why they are not including the base game with the Collectors Edition and I personally think it's actually a good way to go. What is the definition of anything Collector's Edition? What does it mean for the owner? I always thought about it like this. If I was to buy this Collector's Edition at such a high price why wouldn't I want to keep in the plastic to hold onto for many years to come and then sell it.

The only problem with that was, I would need to purchase the game again in order for me to play the game. That plastic holds the value. Break it and devalued almost 98% of the time. From my understanding there are a lot of people who like collecting things just so they can make a profit down the line. I think a lot of Game Developers are seeing this trend. Again I personally agree that it should be implemented like this.

good

Mobile gamers are NOT AAA console/PC gamers. They don't like the same kind of games and are a completely different market. Phone gamers are not interested in games like this and console/PC gamers are not going to play games like this on a phone. How many times does this need to be proven?

Resident Evil 7 - £20 for a mobile game? No wonder it flopped.

Well, it's not as good as candy crush saga, so...

my god, how hard is it to understand maybe just maybe, we don't want to play a high graphics game on a burning hot brick fr less than an hour and having to touch glass for controls?

Glass i not a controller.

Here’s the thing, you have mobile gamers/casual gamers and you have hardcore gamers. I will tell you one side has a preference for games types of games and the platform they’re played on.

I hate playing anything on my phone and will rather sit in a recliner with a controller in my hand, the foot-rest up, and seeing a game on a giant TV. RE7 to me just isn’t something I can see anyone wanting to play on a phone… that’s just me and my take, I could be the minority in that thought process, here.

They probably had a nice subsidy from Apple because its was never going to move units. Nonetheless, an impressive showcase and that was probably the point all along.

Who the hell would want to play this one a phone in the first place?
I guess a whole two-thousand people.

Playing this game on a smartphone is the ultimate crime you could possibly commit. The only true way to play this masterpiece was in VR. I bought a PSVR pretty much because of this single game and it was completely worth it. It was such a freaking glorious experience.

This tracks historically. We've seen in the past when Mac-specific versions of PC games would get their own release and end up performing considerably worse than their PC counterparts (to the point where many of them are rare now). People don't buy Apple products to game on them, especially with a phone.

and this is the end of resident evil games for mobile.

id say lesson learned ha

Bad game for mobile....anyone should have seen this coming.

Most gamers that played the RE games have played them already on consoles or PC on a moderate size screen to big screens. RE games are not made to play on a phone.

Good

Mobile gaming blows and always will.

Why do they think gamers want to play on mobile, every game has flopped that has tried.

Maybe also worth pointing out that a game that came out 7 years ago on last gen consoles as well as getting next gen patches, Steam and also having been steeply discounted for many years and even given away free in PS plus collection; perhaps it’s a surprise that there were as many as 2000 people willing to pay a premium price for it on iOS .

I think it’s a proof of concept and maybe trying to build a catalogue. If Apple release an updated Apple TV box with a M1/A16 chip soon, this and the sequel will end up being added to Apple Arcade.

Not saying this is wrong but we don’t know how Appmagic made this estimate. There is no link to Appmagic.

It's actually funny seeing Capcom still releasing RE for mobile. It's been doing it since forever, and they always flop.

Now can you give us RE4, RE7, and RE8 VR on PC?

This needs 60gb for DL another road block for some like myself

Mobile app users arent gamers so a real game wont even sell on phones.

I mean this surprises nobody.
