    Hard to find Resident Evil ad?

    I've always loved this ad for some reason. I think Virgin was
    responsible for doing it back in the day when the first RE was
    relatively new in Europe.

    I couldn't find another pic anywhere now though, and this one
    came from an old gamefan. Does anyone have a high res or at
    least clear picture of this?

    I can't remember if I scanned that or if I took a pic with
    a shakey digital camera.. I think it was the camera.
    Either way, I figured I could scan it if I removed the page
    from the gamefan but I was hoping for a really clear large
    picture without the grain of the paper it's on.

    I think this ad was featured in one article about violence on videogames, focused mainly on the original Playstation (it featured RE, Tekken 2 , Time Crisis or Legacy of Kain with classics like GTA or Carmaggeddon) in one old magazine (I'm not sure, perhaps an OPSM?). I'm not 100% sure it appeared in this article though. If I find the mag I'll try to scan it.

    Always been a fan of Sony ads (particularly PS1), even if this one's from Capcom.

    Argh, I know I used to have magazine's with this advert in, but I think they got thrown out when I moved. Just dug out my old CVG's and PlayStation Pro's, but no luck.

    I think the article Crescent mentions may be something to do with the "Official PlayStation Horror Special"? - which I used to have :(
