Screens: RE2 & RE3
Posted 27 Dec 2002 at 22:16 by Tim Symons
Those expecting a done-up Resident Evil a la RE1 will be dissapointed with RE2. It is pretty much a straight port of the Playstation game.
Okay, now that we've got that out of the way, lets get onto the actual game. Racoon City is overrun with (you guessed it) flesh-eating zombies. Guide rookie cop Leon and Claire (Chris' sister) through the urban environment, delving deeper into the mystery of Umbrella. There's talk of a budget price for the game, so uninitiated RE fans may want to consider this.
Like Resident Evil 2, this game will not be remade like the original RE was and will be a straight port of the PSX version. Hopefully the rumours of a cheap price are true, or that RE 2 and 3 will be packaged together.
For those new to RE you'll be forgiven for thinking that RE3 takes place after RE2. In fact it actually place just before, during and after RE2.
One month after the mansion lab incedent, STARS agent Jill Valitine treis get out of Raccon City which has become infested with zombies. But on top of all that she has a new more deadly foe to deal with - Nemisis. Nemisis is a mutated B.O.W that unlike zombies and other creations of the T-virus is capable of intellagent thought.
