RE4 coming to 360, or April Fools Photoshop?


So we've got more rumors for you today, and this one doesn't look quite as credible as our last one. A poster at The Horror is Alive forums posted an alleged camera picture of in-progress boxart for a 360 (and PS3) port of Resident Evil 4 with the sub title of Classic Edition. The poster claims to have received the shot from a friend who works in the San Francisco Capcom offices, and who further claims that the game will prominently feature Hunk, who could be getting his own scenario. The poster promises to try and update with captures, so if it happens we'll let you know.

Now the idea of Capcom taking an older game and updating and re-releasing it isn't at all strange, especially considering their recent history. That fact in and of itself gives this one a bit of credence, but it's still just a rumor. Even the guys in the forum where this appeared were skeptical, thinking it might be an April Fools Photoshop joke. We think this is a plausible Capcom move though, and that the above has some minor potential to be the real boxart. Though only time will really tell about the ultimate truth on this one, this could be great if Capcom follows the Lost Planet: Colonies model and releases this with more content and at a price tag of 29.99. But don't hold your breath for it.
