Damn that looks awesome...

Holy crap, I'll definitely be buying this shit. It looks absolutely beautiful. CD, DVD and a book? I'm fucking sold. Hopefully PlayAsia will be selling this.

Heh, I thought you'd be one of the first people to respond to this, deadpan.

I'll wait for the soundtrack to show up on youtube. Most of these tracks I'd like to hear by themselves.

so is this exclusive to Japan only? if so then that sucks because this looks awsome!

[randomwab]

Damn it, do want. No doubt this game'll have a ton of hot Resi 2 remixed music. Bring this to Europe!

Already preordered but I wonder if they will release the soundtrack outside this package.

From where? I need to get it myself. Oh, and the DARKSIDE REPORT doesn't come with the special pack by default, it is included in the initial presses of Darkside Chronicles in general.

Am I the only one not seeing a link to click on?

It's a nice package. I want it. It's a shame Japan is getting the game so much later (which is very strange for Bio/RE releases). But I think I'll still be tempted.

I hope we get "Collector's Packs" in Aus/US/Euro.

So, that Darkside Flashback is a DVD?
I didn't know the Wii even played DVDs (I know they can be modded to do so). That's kinda strange too...

Am I the only one not seeing a link to click on?

I'm not seeing a link either.

EDIT:

I found it.

i know its pretty annoying exclusitivity (god i hope i spelt that right) really sucks

[REmaster]

I want this so bad, ugh. Damn every time a RE game comes out those sly dogs always come up with a way to get us to buy multiple versions lol. So the darkside flashback dvd will be a recap of events like Wesker's report?

[Anders]

Capcom is ruining me. Pre-ordered!

The report book also comes with the first pressing of the game, advertised as "limited edition" on e-capcom.


EDIT: Wait.. the Zapper bundle wasn't Japanese?? What's that then, US or PAL, or both?
