Buy Resident Evil 2 and 3 now. For $49.99 each, that is.
 
C-E:

Capcom ship Resident Evil 2 and 3.

GameCube versions of the 2 games have suddenly appeared in shops all over America. Apparently, the games are both direct ports of the Dreamcast versions. Also, they are not selling at a reduced price, but at a full $49.99, contrary to earlier reports.


:unsure:

I saw this at Capcom.com a long time ago. They were selling both of those games for the same price as REmake. Honestly I think that's a bit too much, I mean they're just ports of psx games...not upgraded at all. Seems like Capcom is ripping us off.

screw that, I'll go buy the PSX ones for $10 each

I'm surprised, because they didn't sell the ports on DC for $50. They're worth 50 to the people who haven't already played it, but I have a feeling they will hit the clearance rack rather quickly.

$40 tops, $30 recommended, and $20 after a few months. $50... only hurting themselves.

$50 is pretty harsh. I'll wait for the clearance when people don't buy it. I would get RE3 since I haven't played that yet, but the price is too high.

That is so idiotic.

GameKinG 01-19-2003 02:27 PM

Funny, I always thought they said it was 40 dollars. No worry, the price will drop fast at that rate.

gekko 01-19-2003 02:46 PM

They're only $40 at EBGames. $15 for the PSX versions.

Though, the GC versions have better boxart.

viruscool 01-19-2003 03:02 PM

Yeah but you dont want to pay more just for a better box art though.

I don't? :confused:

So wait... to get both you need to pay $100 american? I find it hard to believe they're too lazy to put them both on one disc. It can definitely be done. :unsure:

Blix 01-19-2003 06:47 PM

That's insane! I tought that MAYBE code Veronica would reach a similar price. But even then not even Code Veronica should reach that price. Perhaps $30.00 for Code veronica, but not more.

DarkMaster 01-19-2003 06:47 PM

I saw them for $49.95 each at my local futureshop, but I still aint gonna buy em

DeathsHand 01-19-2003 07:01 PM

That's stupid... A year or two ago they released ports on DC for 20 bucks each, and now the games are even older and they sell ports for 50 bucks? bleh... I was gonna maybe buy them if they were cheap, but looks like I won't be getting them anytime soon :p

DarkMaster 01-19-2003 07:11 PM

RE3 and RE2 on gcn are basically made for the stupid nintendo fanboy who has refused to play them on any other system, so they can waste their $49.99 and experience for the first time what we have all already experienced 3-4 years ago

Perfect Stu 01-19-2003 07:43 PM

No... I was talking in Canadian. DM was too. :unsure:

Sometimes I wish we had a Euro here... but then I realize it would only bring Chaos. So.. meh. Maybe there's a vB hack for converting prices depending on your location. :sneaky:
