How Many Resident Evil Games Fit In The Popcorn Bucket? Now We Know

Overview & Key Takeaways

In the realm of gaming memorabilia, novelty items often serve as little more than dust collectors once the hype fades. However, Capcom's first aid kit popcorn bucket, launched as a collectible for the release of the Resident Evil movie, might actually be more practical than it first appears.

Instagram user pokicourtney has discovered the ultimate purpose for the green bag--storing physical copies of games from the Resident Evil franchise.

The popcorn bucket manages to hold a surprisingly dense amount of physical games across multiple console generations--13, in fact. There's a mix of Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, and deluxe steelbook editions of titles spanning from the Resident Evil Origins Collection through to Resident Evil Village.

If you're accustomed to carefully organizing your grid slots in your Resident Evil inventory, seeing a physical copy fit so cleanly into the first aid kit is incredibly satisfying.

While it was originally meant to hold snacks for moviegoers, turning the bag into a dedicated Resident Evil media container seems like a pretty good alternative purpose.

Despite initial skepticism, the Resident Evil movie surpassed expectations at the box office this weekend, bringing in more than $108 million. In our review, Eric Frederiksen said, "Zach Cregger sheds the camp and artifice to give us a truly exciting, tense, and disgusting Resident Evil movie."

Xbox’s New Mythic Achievements Take 15 Seconds To Tell You “Good Job”

Xbox Achievements have remained mostly the same since they were first introduced decades ago, but it looks like they're set to evolve slightly with the introduction of "Mythic" Achievements. Similar to PlayStation's platinum trophies, it looks like players will have to earn every Achievement in a game before they're awarded one of these. How do you know if you've earned this rare level of kudos on your PC or Xbox? Don't worry, unlocking a Mythic Achievement will result in your system rewarding you with a lot of digital fanfare. As spotted by Klobrille, unlocking a Mythic Achievement will trigger a lengthy animation and sound effect, running almost 15 seconds in total: https://twitter.com/klobrille/status/2102548362914365594 On the surface, it looks like adding a Mythic Achievement to your shelf is a sign that you've truly done everything there is to do in a game, so sitting back and enjoying the lengthy applause from your Xbox after you've poured hours into it makes sense. According to TrueAchievements(https://www.trueachievements.com/news/xbox-mythic-achievement), Mythic Achievements are worth zero Gamerscore and are tracked separately from your usual Achievements. Xbox CEO Asha Sharma had teased(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-version-of-playstation-platinum-trophy-teased-for-later-this-year/) the rollout of these new awards back in August, but it looks like they're rolling out during another bleak week at Xbox(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/all-the-major-xbox-changes-microsoft-announced-today-layoffs-halo-changing-hands-and-more/). As part of ongoing cuts, hundreds of people have been laid off across Xbox Game Studios, studio consolidation has resulted in various developers being grouped under new arms of Xbox, and things are not looking good for Ninja Theory(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/ninja-theory-now-expected-to-close-as-deal-falls-apart/). Undead Labs has also found a new owner(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/state-of-decay-3-lives-on-and-is-still-coming-to-game-pass/)--that has not been officially revealed yet--but the move away from Xbox has resulted in downsizing at the State of Decay 3 developer.
