Completed that a couple of days back and its the first time I have ever really got into a Resident Evil game. Did it with Chris first seeing as it was meant to be more of a challenge and I did find it very enjoyable especially shoving a flash grenade into a Crimson Heads mouth and watching his head explode.

Love and my local Gamestation are selling 0,2 and 3 for 30 pounds so im pretty sure im going to be set for a while.

The film has relly strayed too far away from the games i feel. The first film remained slightly loyal but I think the new films' already lost the plot seeing as it dosnt actually contain ANY of the characters from the games...

And in the first film the final boss should have been the Tyrant not the sodding Licker!!

So a game based on a film that was based on a game.

Wonderful.

I've got them all bar 2... although I have 2 on the N64.

If I see it cheap I might just get it...

Then I'll have the full Gamecube collection.

She was still dead before she fell in the pit bless her heart.

Yeah but she hardly furthered the storyline.

Neither did he but I didn't say he wasn't important.

It was a pretty big character considering she was playable for part of the game. Also, I believed it was Ada who threw the rocket launcher down at the end of RE2, because no other character seemed to fit.


Re: the unimportance of Wesker, HCF and the downfall of Umbrella - I say they aren't important for a few reasons. For a start Umbrella aren't gone for good, so it's hardly a downfall. The whole game just felt unimportant, like a sidequest. As I say, it's my belief that as it was being made as a Dreamcast exclusive, they didn't want to gamble too much. Yes, there are relevancies, and the return of Wesker would seem like a big deal, but it just didn't feel like one. They may choose to bring in more elements from CV since it has got a wider release as CVX, who knows. But I'm sure we haven't seen the end of Wesker yet.

Lisa trevor did play a role in the first game but it wasn't too too big.

The Trevors were dead even before the games began...

Ada died yes but that was hardly a character.

Billy survived but is "officially dead" I doubt we'll ever see him again.

That mercenary bloke died in RE3 but I played that so long ago.

Tyrant isn't a single character, he's a type of enemy and there are hundreds of them. Many appeared in the "Tyrant" factory located in "Survivor". I guess you can count Nemesis as a character.

Outbreak, like the Survivor series... is crap and has no relevence to the RE storyline.

Next you'll be discussing Gaiden.
