Capcom kind of screws GC RE fans (NOT RE4 related)

That's cool. I only have the US Dreamcast and PS2 versions, and neither one is clearly better than the other, since each offers something the other does not. It'd be nice to have a "best of all worlds" copy of the game.

and the games are just astronomical...$60+ for CV!

Geezus! I looked on Ebay and even a used copy of RE3 (GC) is fetching up to $70+. I didn't realise they were that rare...

Oh well, guess I might as well part with my copy too, though I'll have to sweeten the deal a little and throw in some other RE titles (maybe now I can get rid of that Code: Veronica DC version now...) and gear. :D

I think the GC version does so. It has the slightly superior visuals of the DC game, the faster loading times and the PS2/JP DC extras.

NotMSRP: I'll let you know tomorrow.

Tell me about it. I finally tracked them down earlier in the year and I had to fight tooth and nail with the manager of a Gamestop to get them.

I kept checking Gamestop's website at least once a week for a year trying to see when a particular store got them in stock (if ever). They finally did. Long story short, I showed up, grabbed the cases off the shelf, stood in line and asked to buy them. The manager waited on me, confiscated the boxes and said "We had these? Sorry, I can't sell them to you I'm buying them!" Needless to say I was downright outraged. I called the district manager a few days later and it turns out the guy still hadn't bought them. He was waiting for his paycheck. The DM gave him quite a talking to. Then when I showed up to buy them the manager acted like "how dare you call the DM"....as if I was the one who had done something wrong!!! Meanwhile when he refused to sell them to me days earlier I told him that I was going to call the DM and that he should just sell them to me now to avoid getting in trouble and he refused.

holy crap that is a retail horror story. it didnt happen to me and im still pissed about it.


it sure does suck about these way overpriced releases though. i would have loved to get my hands on all of the GC re-releases.

and CVXFREAK: you are our RE hero! (/not sarcasm) damn you for slacking on the offical thread! :D
