Nice article /sarcasm

Don't bother clicking the link. The whole "article" was the 3 sentences and picture before the link.

the 360 bundle is better, it has SO and RE5

y0haN6262d ago (Edited 6262d ago )

What is SO?

Edit: If you meant soundtrack, I've never seen it spelt that way.

The PS3 in this bundle looks awesome, customized just for "BioHazard" 5!

Aclay6262d ago

I really don't see what makes the 360 bundle that much more special. The only considerable difference is that the 360 version comes with the Deluxe Edition of RE5.

The 360 version comes with a 48 Hour Xbox Live Gold Membership and that's good and all, but the PS3 has Free Online.

For most Japanese gamers waiting to buy RE5, I think they'll mostly go with the PS3 bundle anyways.

I think the design on the PS3 version makes it a little more special because it's not like there are going to be millions and millions of those PS3's made with the Resident Evil design on it. They will probably be produced just for a limited time specifically for this bundle, similar to the Gunmetal 40GB MGS4 PS3 bundles.

For die-hard Resident Evil fans, I think the design on the PS3 is enough to warrant the purchase over the 360 bundle even if it costs more.

This bundle is guaranteed to move aloooooot of units!

xwabbit6262d ago (Edited 6262d ago )

PS3 wins in every bundle really... thats my opinion anyways. PS3 Bundle = Blu ray player, Web browser, Free Online, Weather Service, Home, a lot of free DLC, Music and Video streaming soon + all the additional stuff the bundle brings

Le Idiotce6262d ago

So far PS3 has consistently has had better bundles.

GT5 bundle
COD WAW bundle
RE5 bundle
FF13 bundle
Advent Children bundle
LBP bundle

Sony computers internal growth is amazing and eating away market share from its competitors.

The wii is still expanding. The only one losing is, again, the 360.

SL1M DADDY6262d ago

Just a great game, custom console artwork and two Dual SHock 3 Controllers... Nope, nothing special there...

So is your website,it's just another irrelevant videogame news site that can not survive without N4G clicks.

It literally has nothing unique that makes it relevant nor memorable to gamers.

xwabbit6262d ago

The PS3 has a custom skin ?.... looks pro :o.... the xbox just looks plain xD

eagle216262d ago (Edited 6262d ago )

This bundle is special. It means Capcom loves PS3. We all know when RE5 is released in JP it will outsell 360 5:1. We also know more PS3's than 360's will move with this bundle in JP as well. :)

manga20016262d ago

you do know the RE5 360 bundle has a ton more of stuff to it right. But man fanboys really are extremests lol

ActionBastard6262d ago (Edited 6262d ago )

A ton more stuff? The addition of the soundtrack to the Arcade bundle is a ton more stuff? LOL. Ok ;)

EDIT: I stand corrected Playstation360, thanks (confused the SO4 bundle with the RE5). The "deluxe" version of RE5 bundled with the 360 contains the soundtrack too. That and it's in a tin, where the PS3 version is in a BD case.

lord_of_balrogs6262d ago

Really? If this bundle is special the 360 bundle version must be the best thing since sliced bread.

PlayStation3606262d ago (Edited 6262d ago )

That's overexaggerating.

But they do have the Deluxe version of Biohazard 5 included (Soundtrack/steel-book casing), where as the PS3 version seems to only have the regular version (I might be wrong though).

The 360 bundle is also the 60giger pro, not the arcade (the arcade is the Star Ocean 4 bundle).

The only other stuff they include in the 360 Biohazard 5 bundle is a remote and headset instead of an extra controller like the PS3 bundle.

Edit: I noticed something. On the PS3 version, the game case. It has an icon on the top left corner. This may in fact mean the PS3 version will have the Limited Edition version of Biohazard 5 (making of documentary). But please, do not take my word as absolute. And if y'all are wondering about the 2GB Tricell USB drive, 32-page art book, and BSAA "Waist Pocket" that was to be included with both the PS3/360 limited edition versions of Biohazard 5. It appears that will not be the case for the bundles (the 360 bundle version will not have it either)

PlayStation3606262d ago (Edited 6262d ago )

I did some checking, and both PS3 versions of the game (the standard and Limited Edition) will include the Making of Documentary. The only difference between the standard and LE is that USB drive, art book, and Waist Pocket. Bummer :/

Ju6262d ago

Hm, the 360 indeed come with more stuff. Cables and such. What else ? And a remote, headset, soundtrack. While the PS3 has a second controller and "+VIDEO" whatever that means.

ActionBastard6262d ago

Don't 60GB 360s already come with a headset and remote? It's just a 60GB 360 with RE5...in a tin...with a soundtrack.

So the most successful RE is the one where a white man is killing Africans.
This can't be real.

Capcom's willingness to invest in experiments and scrap them sets them apart form many other developers (Nintendo have a similar methodology). Far too often companies push a game setting or game mechanic that is just not that good and the final product is middling or poor.

I mean 0, 1 and Code Veronica should be way before we get into 5 or 6.

Darkseeker41d ago

5 and 6 are so bad that even Capcom want to pretend they don't exist.

Levii_9241d ago

Dude Code Veronica is bad too but RE5 and 6 were mega successful and to me it makes much more sense for Capcom to do them instead. Nobody cares about Code Veronica except niche fixed camera era RE fans, i bet most modern RE fans probably don't know Code Veronica even exists. Based on all that i don't believe CV remake is coming but we will see i guess.

MehmetAlperTR41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

Actually RE5-6 was not Classic RE game.. They are not even Survival Horror game.. They are just an action game with coop and named by RE... And for me RE Code Veronica was masterpiece.. I remembered the first time i played it in Dreamcast.. It was absouletly excellent game. And specially for RE6.. I was quit from game after the camera shakes when Leon's kick to zombies.. There's a video about RE6 and they are telling the truth about that shitty game https://www.youtube.com/wat... here it is.. Enjoy it..

Neonridr40d ago

people are DYING for a Code Veronica Remake. Not sure who you are talking to, but the die-hard RE fans of the series are very familiar with every entry. That's what it means to be called a die-hard fan.

neutralgamer199240d ago

Levii

I am sure If they were to remake CV that it 2ont have fixed camera angle. I hope whatever they do they take their time like RE2/4 remakes and not rushed with cut content like RE3 remake

Before they should do RE5 they should go back and remake earlier games. In a perfect scenario we would get CV and RE/Zero before RE5/6

Tapani40d ago

Code Veronica on Dreamcast was absolutely AWESOME.

LucasRuinedChildhood41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

It makes more sense for them to remake earlier games like Code Veronica. RE5 is a good game though - it's not THAT different from RE4.

RE5 just doesn't really need to remade in general. The co-op element makes it tricky - you'd probably add more moments where Chris is by himself enhance the horror but some would want co-op to stay.

thesoftware73040d ago

RE:5 Was and still is a great game, with hands down the best Merc mode, that I still play from time to time with my brother.

RE:6 blah, I agree, it was awful.

Redgrave40d ago

Other than Code Veronica, 6 is the one ai want to see remade the most only because pretty much everything has to be redone; can't streamline that hot mess.

DarXyde40d ago

6 was pretty bad. 5 just tried too hard in being an action-oriented RE4.

In some fairness to Capcom, 5 was the first Resident Evil on then-new hardware for them (X360 and PS3). And it was pretty damn hard to follow up RE4.

Imagine everyone's surprise when EA of all companies dropped Dead Space.

Alos8840d ago

The first half of 5 wouldn't be too hard to do in the more grounded style the remakes have gone for, but the second half gets pretty silly and uncomfortable at parts.
6 is a wash. You'd have to basically make a whole new game to salvage that one at this point.

__y2jb40d ago

6 is garbage. 5 is excellent.

Hopefully if and when they do a RE5 remake, they give it the RE3 remake treatment, because this is certainly one title that I don't want a faithful remake of.
