Resident Evil 5′s launch yesterday saw excited fans on a treasure hunt with a difference through London‘s streets. Capcom, makers of the terrifying zombie action game, asked fans of the series to follow clues to gather well-hidden, highly-realistic body parts from around the capital. The collector of the most parts, Steve Long, a 26-year-old IT consultant, won a trip for two to Africa, where the game is set. Unfortunately, Long wasn’t the only person scooping up the gory trophies. Capcom has now appealed to the public to return one head, two torsos and six limbs that have gone missing.
