Resident Evil 4: Classic Edition on the way?

360 Rumour | An alleged photo suggests so.
According to Resident Evil fan site, The Horror, there may be another port of Resident Evil 4 in the works, this time for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Allegedly, the site was sent a photo from a reader who works in the office of Capcom’s San Fransisco building. Apparently, this individual spied on an artist who was working on the boxart for the port, and managed to take the picture using his mobile phone. The site also mentions that the supposed 360 and PS3 port will have a new story-campaign for Hunk, in a similar manner to Ada’s Separate Ways scenario in the PlayStation 2, PC and Wii versions.

Given the Wii version of Resident Evil 4 exceeded Capcom’s initial sales expectations, the rumour isn’t too far fetched, particularly with a port of Resident Evil Zero also on the cards for Wii later this year (at least for Japan anyway). That said however, this could simply be an early April Fool’s joke. Either way, we’ll be sure to report back should Capcom make an official announcement.

Special thanks to forum member Shadow Wave for the heads up.

Fair point Ugh. I (personally) found RE4 much more immersive and natural with the Wiimote.

I think you missed my point, i'm saying the game is too easy with the wiimote, maybe if the zombies were sped-up then it would balance it out, but I prefer aiming with the joystick anyways cuz pointing with the wiimote is fun for about 5 mins before it starts becoming a chore imo.
I might be wrong about this but didn't they do exactly that with the "Zombies"? I could have sworn they made them faster and gave you less ammo in the Wii version...

Actually, you're right.

I agree RE4 seems a bit easy on Wii, but the controls are better (but could be better), and the Wii version should always be played on Pro to make it perfect.

You're a potato head, no you're a potato head..

What the hell is this? He's not right, the only thing different in the Wii version (other than motion controls) is the Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles trailer. Get your your facts straight before you try to debunk mine.
