I want it, but it's hard for me to buy... and, it's all in japanese, no?

[Bianca]

Desperately want this, but I really don't have the money for it right now. Hopefully I'll be able to find a copy on eBay in a month or so. I hate being poor. *sniff*

[padamibr]

Anyone knows if there is going to be a english version?
.
How is the history of Capcom about this? Do they do this kind of thing? Do it take long?

[Stars1356]

If there was an english version I might consider it. Hoping that a site like this will put some scans up.

I really want this ... I will see. I really wanna know if there are any new images or renders that we haven't seen in things like the guide book before I go ahead with it. Hopefully there will be, though.

From the looks of the preview pics on the Play-Asia site, it seems like we'll be getting more than what was shown in both the previous E-capcom artbook and the guide. 208 pgs! As long as they dont pull what they did with the Umbrella Chronicles artbook and waste alot of space >>;

I know, rite? That UC artbook was such a letdown. I enjoyed looking at all the renders more closely, but it really wasn't anything you couldn't have obtained online in high-resolution. My appreciation for artbooks lies in seeing unreleased content, particularly beta sketches and whatnot.

That's exactly why. XD I have the UC artbook. Though I will probably get this too just because I love having artbooks to hold in my grabby little hands.

Damn, I went to the japanese community here... I found out that they can order the book, but it would take two to three months to arrive, and they would price R$120 ($60)..
.
Do you think it's worth it? If I know 100% sure that there WON'T be a english version I'll buy it... what do you guys think?

[Yzak]

It really depends. To my knowledge, artbooks are a little more rarer to be released in English, so I would not bank on it personally. Think about any other game artbooks/other RE games and do the math? :|a The Japanese versions become attainable pretty easily THROUGH a lot of English hub sites, and it will probably be cheaper than $60.

[Bertha]

I ended up ordering two by mistake. <.< Oh well. I might sell one...or use it for scanning.

so does anyone have this official artworks book. IF so can you tell me if its worth it since, I'm interested in purchasing one.
