Thank God I'm not into Resident Evil or I would need to start whoring myself out!

I agree with the responses. I havent seen a collector's edition for any previous game go for over $200 ... what makes that jacket worth $1100?

[madmax]

Do you really think they are going to sell all 5000 of them? I can understand if they make an exclusive edition with 10-20 units only. Than the hardcore fans can go for it and the rest of us are happy without. 5000 examples seems pretty outrageous :/

Not that I want it or anything, I too think it's ridculous, but as collectors we've seen this before, and perhaps it will be worth a lot more in the future. Take the Neo Geo for example the system plus two games would've cost over 1000 dollars, but now some of the games are worth that much or more. Also the turbografx 16 cd add-on, high price tag and little intrest has now made it very collectible.

Hmm...an $1100 jacket or a nice suit...decisions, decisions.

Seriously Capcom?

As much as I love Resident Evil. This is just asinine. Seriously Capcom, divert some of the funds from this ridiculous limited edition back into Mega Man Legends 3.

The best part....RE6 will most likely have DLC on day one or you'll have to pay to see the ending.

That company is turning into nothing more than a bunch of money grubbing whores. I only buy used Capcom games because of all the recent ridiculousness.
