CAPCOM MISTAKENLY ORDERS 55K GALLONS OF REAL BLOOD FOR RESIDENT EVIL BLOOD SWIMMING POOL EVENT

The company has stated that the cause of the misplaced order was due to a “miscommunication” between departments. Capcom has not disclosed any further details about the mistake only saying it was a typographical error by a department head. In addition, due to the order being treated as fake blood, the shipment was not properly stored and now can no longer be used for any medical purposes.

Capcom is still planning to do the blood swimming pool event with fake blood and has put preventative measures in place to ensure that no real human body parts make it into the pool. While Capcom has not announced what they are doing with the shipment of real blood, many gamers are asking Capcom to use the real blood for the pool to make the event more exciting.

“If the real blood is used, I think Resident Evil: Revelations could make national headlines,” says Capcom Unity member Beachhead, “This can only be a good thing for Capcom and I think they can really turn a lot of heads towards this awesome game.”

“Hell, I’ll swim through diarrhea to get some exclusive Resident Evil merchandise,” says Capcom Unity member Mezolitik, “I’ll have less people to compete with if you use real blood, Capcom.”

One fan has been waiting outside London’s Olympic Stadium since the announcement of the event and is thrilled at the potential for real blood being used. He declined to give us his name but was willing to speak with us.

“One of my biggest fantasies is to swim in a pool of blood,” says the man, “I knew it was fake blood coming here, but it was better than nothing. I mean, nothing can simulate the smell, taste, or viscosity of the actual thing. Now with the possibility of real blood being used, I’m over the moon.”

When asked how he feels about Resident Evil: Revelations heading to consoles, he replied that he has no idea what a Resident Evil is.

日本環球影城與卡普空《惡靈古堡》系列合作的新遊樂設施，「惡靈古堡 the Real」，已於7月19日開幕囉，打著「新感覺射擊恐怖生存遊戲遊樂設施」的名號，「期間限定」開放至今年11月10日為止。

「惡靈古堡 the Real」是日本環球影城全力製作，再現出不知何時會襲來，充滿緊張感的《惡靈古堡》世界。從官網還可以看到，除了基本移動緩慢的殭屍外，運氣好的話在設施內還可以遇見「利卡」「Hunter」甚至「暴君」，而玩家必須拿著沉重的模型槍，在有限的彈藥下，殺出生路。

據國外媒體報導，設施本身完全再現遊戲世界，不論環境細節或是真人活屍都做得相當逼真。

在設施內是以步行方式移動，內容分為第一舞台和第二舞台（最終舞台）。第一舞台分為「R.P.D 路線」和「Hospital 路線」，不管是哪條路線一次約莫都是以 8 人為單位行動。不過，這次遊客並不能選擇路線，而只有在第一舞台以低感染等級下活下來的遊客，才能前進到第二舞台。

　在入口處，工作人員會交給遊客可以綁在手上的指示器和槍（模型槍）。指示器和槍之間有連結，因此不只可以看感染等級，也可以確認剩餘的子彈數。模型槍的重量約有 700 克，拿在手上就可以感覺到重量。從指示器上顯示的「30」可以知道子彈有 30 發。雖說是 8 人一組，但子彈只有 30 發還是讓人很不安。姑且不管筆者的不安，讓我們來看看設施的主要內容。

　　門一打開，另一頭就是成為死城的拉昆市。為了不爆雷，就不在這裡說明內部的狀況。在裡面玩家必須和殭屍或 Licker 等《惡靈古堡》系列中大家熟悉的怪物對戰。和怪物們對峙的時候，會有一些如果有玩過《惡靈古堡》的人會忍不住會心一笑的情景。不過自己實際在現場的話，可能會完全沒有時間會心一笑。
