PS3, Xbox 360 get different exclusives for Resident Evil 5
The rivalry continues, and now the games are getting in on it. When you get Resident Evil 5 (PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360) next year, you’d find yourself torn between the console wars as to which exclusive has a greater pull – for the PS3? Or the Xbox 360? RE5 offers one thing for PS3, and another for Xbox 360 – offers are exclusive so you’ll just have to compare and decide who got the better out of the new RE.
The gap between Xbox 360 and PS3 continues to widen, and even these console-exclusive offers from Resident Evil 5 (PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360) are giving more reasons for gamers to debate which console is the better way to go.
If you get the one for the PS3, you’ll receive a Hollywood-made video on the making of RE5. Pretty sweet, and it sounds like a lot of effort went in it, plus it gives you more behind-the-scenes info on the game. Problem is, it’s very likely to show up on YouTube, if some of the contents are not already there.
The Xbox 360 RE5 pack will come in a cool metal case, including a soundtrack CD, entitled, “Biohazard 5 Selection Track,” based from the Japanese translations from Capcom‘s site. It’s pretty cool – the metal case sounds neat, but it’s a limited offer so you can’t guarantee that you can get one.
Note that the PS3-exclusive content will be available right on the game disc itself – meaning it’s a permanent fixture whether you get the Limited Edition or just the game itself. Meanwhile, the Xbox 360 exclusive content will be available as part of the Xbox 360 version of the Limited Edition – and not part of the game disc SKU.
So if you own both systems, which is it gonna be? What do you guys think? Check out the source link to see images of the other items.
