BurnSide
What do you have on your comp?
Try apple.com they should have the trailer in quick time.

THE NEMESIS LOOKS AWESOME!!!
Shakezulah
my quick time doesnt work. it says i dont have the right compresor or something and i may have problems. im just not gonna get to see it cuz nothing on my comp will load it fast enough.
BurnSide
Well, doesn't that suck ass.
Shakezulah
it certainly does suck ass burnside. but since its the new theatrical trailer, wouldnt it be playing in previews for new movies?
BurnSide
Of course. It's a theatrical trailer.
However i'm not sure what movies it'll be playing with. I watched Spiderman 2 and didn't see the trailer there. I assume it'll be playing with Alines VS Predator since that's also a Paul Anderson movie.
Shakezulah
i didnt know AVP was a paul anderson movie. i really wanna see that too. but why on the link for the new trailer you had on here, did it say that it wasnt directed by paul anderson? it said alexander witt.
BurnSide
Resident Evil: Apocalypse is not Directed by Paul Anderson, that's why.
He had a hand in the directing, being a close friend of Alexander Witt, and of course directing the first movie. But his offical role in RE:A is actually Producer, since he was really busy with his Alien VS Predator project, which comes out next month.
Shakezulah
at what exact nemisis encounters do you get the shotgun parts and the infinite ammo case?
BurnSide
You have to put him down 4 times to get the shotgun parts A, 5 times to get the shotgun parts B, and 7 times to get the infinite ammo case.

Basically, you have to defeat him each and everytime you see him. NO running away.
Shakezulah
o crap. ive already ran away a couple times. now i prolly wont get the ammo thing.
BurnSide
Probably not.
It's REALLY difficult without the Rocket Launcher and Unlimited Ammo. I suggest unlocking that first in the Mercs game.

Also, boss fights don't count.
Shakezulah
i have terrible news for RE fans. i was just going to look at a red faction guide online on gamespot.com.....and in the news section, i saw something horrible and terrifying. Resident Evil 4 delayed to '05!!! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


heres the scoop:
RUMOR #5: Resident Evil 4 and Killer 7 have been delayed until 2005.

Source: Product pages on EBGames.com and GameStop.com.

The official story: "We have not made any announcements regarding the exact release dates or months for these products. Both of these are still considered 'Winter.'"--Capcom USA spokesperson.

What we heard: The product pages went up. The forums started a-hoppin'. The e-mails went out. The official denial came in. The tired reporter shrugged his shoulders, shook his head, and moved on....

Bogus or not bogus?: Who knows.


LINK


i hope to God that this does not happen!!!
BurnSide
Wow, that's sucks, but kinda expected considering how long it's been on the chopping board for. I'm not to worried, as long as it's absolutely top notch when it does finally get released here, i'll be happy. original.gif
BurnSide
Yeah, i confirmed the rumour and it's definately true.
Resident Evil 4 North America Release is now the same time as Resident Evil Outbreak: File #2 which is Feb 2005.
BurnSide
One more thing, this one is for you hereticdude, i've found a site hosting the Resident Evil: Apocalypse theatrical trailer that you should be able to view.

CLICK HERE for the site. I'm putting this site here because it actually has the offical poster for RE:A which looks very cool. It's Alice walking through a graveyard, holding a sheet over her body with one hand and a uzi in the other hand. Scroll down and click on WATCH TRAILER to be directed to the trailers.

I hope this works.
Shakezulah
CRAP! it still didnt work. for some stupid-ass reason, the picture wont come in. its just the audio. thanks though.

More info on Lisa Trevor in REmake:

QUOTE
========================================================================
L I S A  T R E V O R  A N D  U M B R E L L A
========================================================================

Who is Lisa Trevor? Lisa Trevor is the daughter of the architect who
built the Spencer Estate. The man who built the estate was George
Trevor. Lisa Trevor was 14 years old when she vanished on a trip through
the Spencer Mansion.

Lisa Trevor was born in 1952. She eventually was experimented on for
many, many years and was the breakthrough to two of Umbrella's
scientific breakthroughs: The Nemesis Tyrant and the G-Virus. Umbrella
is a pharmaceutical company that owned the Midwestern town of Raccoon
City. It performed illegal activities with plants and animals alike,
experimenting on deadly bioweapons with their T-Virus.

William Birkin, Annette Birkin, Albert Wesker, Oswell Spencer, Edward
Ashford and Alexia Ashford were the company's top scientists for many
years.

William Birkin discovered the G-Virus and partially designed the Nemesis
Tyrant eventually seen in BioHazard 3. Annette Birkin had assisted him
along with Albert Wesker. William Birkin is also responsible for a virus
in which fed new life to the dead, and gave them superhuman powers at
the same time.

Oswell Spencer and Edward Ashford discovered the Mother Virus, or T-
Virus in the early or mid 20th century. Alexia Ashford, the
granddaughter of Edward, discovered the T-Veronica Virus at the tender
age of 10.

========================================================================
H I S T O R Y
========================================================================

This following analysis can only be fully understood by playing
BioHazard for the GameCube, reading a transcript of Wesker's Report II,
playing BioHazard 2, playing BioHazard 3: Last Escape and reading the
Trevor Letters.

THE WOMAN IN WESKER'S REPORT II
Lisa Trevor is the woman in Wesker's Report II. By combining the dates
in Wesker's Report II with the dates in the Trevor Letters, you'll see
that Lisa Trevor was kidnapped around the time a mysterious woman came
to be experimented on by William Birkin.

LISA EXPERIMENTED ON
Reading the Wesker's Report II, they exposed her to many viruses,
including the Ebola Virus and the Mother Virus. She had managed to live
through all of that, despite the hell of all those gruesome tests. Her
mind was corrupted by the original virus. Afterwards, she was deemed as
a failure and everyone forgot about her. for awhile.

FURTHER EXPERIMENTS
The T-Virus' problem with making Tyrant BOW (Bio Organic Weapon) is that
1 in 100,000,000 (100 Million) people became a Tyrant. The Tyrant is the
final boss we see in BioHazard. It is also the boss that stalks you in
BioHazard 2, known as Mr. X, and Nemesis, who stalks you in BioHazard 3.

Because making a Tyrant was so rare, they decided to use Lisa as a test
subject for becoming a Tyrant, by injecting the T-Virus into her. They
(Birkin and Wesker) then received the Nemesis Prototype from the
Umbrella France Facility. The Umbrella France Facility is the facility
seen at the beginning of BioHazard CODE: Veronica Complete, in which
Claire Redfield causes quite a commotion.

They inject the parasite into Lisa Trevor because of her amazing
resistance rate to dying. The Nemesis Parasite kills incompatible hosts
within 5 minutes. Suddenly, something weird happened. The parasite, as
it tried to enter Lisa's brain, vanished. They continued to research
her, according to the Report. But then they decided to scrap it at the
end, until William Birkin noticed a big change in her.

He dropped the T-Virus Project and decided something new: The G-Virus
Project.

LISA AND THE G-VIRUS
William Birkin moved his facility of testing the G-Virus Project to a
lab underneath Raccoon City. This lab is seen at the very end of
BioHazard 2 and quite possibly connects to the factory at the end of
BioHazard 3. The T-Virus and G-Virus are different because the G-Virus
consistently adapts to the host. The reason for Birkin's transfer was
because Spencer didn't approve of the G-Virus, due to its lack of
information.

As Birkin continued studies on Lisa, he noticed changes in her inside.
She became so mutated that she consumed the Nemesis Parasite. She
started to regain her intelligence slowly.

After consuming the Nemesis, they've had it. They now wanted to kill
Lisa Trevor.

She was so brutal, that she ripped a woman's face off and wore it, and
that face was her mother's face; Jessica Trevor. The G-Virus made no
progress in Lisa, so they killed her over the course of 3 days. Or
so we thought.

The Report II ends there.

========================================================================
6. A N A L Y S I S
========================================================================

The Wesker's Report II leaves us with many conclusions:

The G-Virus was extracted from Lisa Trevor's body after exposure from
the Ebola Virus, T-Virus and her consumption of the Nemesis parasite.

Lisa Trevor, the monster, is one bad *****. She ripped the faces off of
a woman (her mom) and wore them when she got loose. The puzzle of
putting 4 masks on 4 tombs in a crypt is derived from Lisa ripping a
woman's face off.

THE G-VIRUS
The reason why Lisa Trevor will not die in BioHazard: Rebirth is because
she has the G-Virus in her. The G-Virus keeps the host alive until it is
destroyed in a blast. She won't die then, unless she is hit really,
really hard.

We know Lisa Trevor is a psuedo-G-Type because of the eye on her back,
like the one seen in William Birkin's arm in BioHazard 2 and the Nemesis
at the end of BioHazard 3 after mutating.

In the game, she will not die, even with the more powerful weapons,
simply because of the G-Virus inside her. But wasn't William Birkin
easily injured and weakened in BioHazard 2? What makes her so much
tougher, even without a completed version of the G-Virus inside her?

Anyway, the G-Virus was likely created from combining the Ebola Virus
and the T-Virus. Since the G-Virus was extracted from her after being
given the T-Virus and Ebola Viruses, among other, unmentioned viruses.
After the Nemesis Parasite had been consumed by Lisa, Birkin discovered
that the T-Virus and Ebola Virus resist death. The Ebola Virus probably
is the death-blocker (unless you count the "undead zombies", but then
again zombies aren't dead, they're just hungry, decaying humans),
because the T-Virus hasn't shown evidence of death-blocking. It has
shown signs of becoming moderately powerful, as evidenced by the Tyrant.

Perhaps William Birkin might have nearly become a Tyrant that couldn't
die after injecting the G-Virus into himself after the attack from HUNK
in BioHazard 2, but the effects of the Ebola Virus half of the G-Virus
interrupted his mutation, so he became a modified version, but
eventually turned into that. thing you see at the end.

It is still unknown what else the Ebola Virus does, but it definitely
keeps hosts alive. It kept Lisa alive.

THE NEMESIS
Remember, Lisa gave way to the creation of the Nemesis Tyrant. Not
necessarily the exact Nemesis in BioHazard 3, but Nemesis Tyrants in
general. Her Nemesis genes are obvious in the tentacles dangling out of
her body, and the jumps she performs in her final encounter with either
Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine.

The Nemesis Tyrant in BioHazard 3 jumped similar, and had similar
tentacles. Go figure. The reason why she is really resistant to attacks
is because the Nemesis was made to resist attacks, as evidenced with the
amount of ammo needed to defeat Nemesis in BH3. Her Nemesis side keeps
her from getting hurt, while her G-Virus side keeps her alive.

When you battle her with Barry, notice the Birkin-eye she has on her
back, her Nemesis tentacles, and the way she jumps. After that, play
both BioHazard 2 and 3 and look for similarities.

--------------------------------------------
|CHARACTERISTIC | NEMESIS  | BIRKIN | LISA |
--------------------------------------------
|HIGH JUMP            | YES        | NO        | YES  |
|PAIN RESISTANCE | YES        | MAYBE  | YES  |
|SPEED                  | YES        | NO        | NO  |
|TENTACLES          | YES        | NO        | YES  |
|IMMORTALITY        | MAYBE    | YES      | YES  |
--------------------------------------------

(No, the tentacles Birkin has at the end of BioHazard 2 Scenario B are
more like tails than tentacles.)

It all comes together now, huh? From the evidence of Lisa, we can
conclude:

-The Ebola Virus, at least in the RE world, keeps hosts alive as long as
they are genetically modified to do so. Lisa probably was.

-The T-Virus can grant sheer power to a rare amount of people. Because
of the Ebola Virus, the T-Virus might have caused her to live longer and
become powerful at the same time.

-The G-Virus keeps things alive, in whatever way shape or form it was
created.

-Lisa Trevor cannot die because of her G-Virus side.

-Lisa Trevor cannot get hurt easily because of her Nemesis side, in
which resists pain.

-In theory, Lisa can transport the G-Virus probably through her Nemesis
tentacles, as spoken in Wesker's Report II.

-Lisa Trevor was obviously unknown as a person to Birkin or Wesker.

-The Lisa Trevor we see is that brown hunch-back who has been tied down
by a chain and is deadly.

-The Nemesis lead to the creation of the G-Virus. It is subjective, but
can Nemesis be considered a partial G-Type? He just won't die, you know,
and has those Birkin eyes at the end of the game. Hmmm.

-Wesker obviously was a _REALLY_ good friend of William Birkin.

-Albert Wesker knew about the T-Veronica Virus long before the events of
Resident Evil CODE: Veronica X. He also knew the Antarctica's Umbrella
facility was nothing, which is why he attacks Rockfort Island instead of
Antarctica at the start of CODE: Veronica and CODE: Veronica Complete.

-Given all of Wesker's experience, he can be planning something much
bigger now that he has the T-Veronica Virus as of CODE: Veronica
Complete (since he stole Steve Burnside's body in CVC). For all we know,
he can be planning to inject Sherry Birkin, the daughter of William
Birkin, with the T-Veronica, G-Virus and the Nemesis Parasite to create
perhaps a much more powerful Lisa, yet still be able to cope with all
her viruses.

The chart's really really hard to read in non-TXT, so bare with it.
BurnSide
Wow, alot of good information there. Some of it i've read before, but not put it all together like that. What's the source on that?
Nikolaos
Game FAQs like all of my other information. By the way, I nearly had a heart attack watching that RE:A trailer. That...is the coolest thing I've ever seen short of the 40 meg SH:4 trailer. *dies*
BurnSide
Yeah, the SH4 trailer is insane, as are the RE4 trailers, they blew me away too. But the RE:A Trailer, wow. SO much action!! Glad ya liked it.

"GameFaQs your one stop shop for anything games" i saw that on a popup before....thats how i found out about it
BurnSide
GameFAQ's is AWESOME. Everything you need for every game.
Janiel
thus the popup i saw!
BurnSide
Did you watch the trailer?
Janiel
half of it...my computer kept tweaking half way thro
BurnSide
Bah, you people and your low-grade computers!!
Nikolaos
Really, though. DSL/Cable tends to own.

There are a group of Resident Evil MASTERS that put their stuff up on GameFAQs. Just look for guys with one letter, then a last name.

Example: "VMerken" (Great guy. He is the Speed Runner of RE.)
BurnSide
I wish i could put my stuff up.
Like my videofootage of the RE: Nemesis Mercs game. With Mickhail i always finish with over 10 minutes left on the clock. That's pretty much my specialty. And invisible-enemy mode for remake, but anyone can do that once they know the exact location of every enemy.
Janiel
damned show off...with your antics...

What's your best time for IE mode? I got 2:17 on the first try (Hard). I bascially used my Hard-Mode Patch for Once Again. I ended up having 4 battery packs and 5 daggers left at the end. Worst ending, though. lol. The Appaling ending is needed for the fastest run. (Tip: If you're going for speed, kill off Barry and save at least ONE bullet in his magnum for the Tyrant Fight [in the lab].) .44s rock. thumbsup.gif
BurnSide
2:17 isn't bad for a first run through. i didn't have anything left on my best time, which is 1:57, and of course it was the worst ending. sorry chris.
i have leaving him there, lol.
Nikolaos
^.^ My Records:
Best run on Normal Mode=1:43
Best run on Hard Mode=1:56
Best run on Real Survivor Mode=2:01 (this, in my oppinion was THE hardest mode)
Best run on Invisible Enemy Mode=1:59:32 (I took a screen but deleted it. *face palms*)
BurnSide
I'm getting a digital soon so i can start taking screens. I don't remember my best times.
I didn't find Real Survivor the hardest, just most frustrating having to take items from one box to the next, especially with Chris. Alot of backtracking.

The worst tho is One Tough Zombie. I HATE THAT GUY. Stupid Forest.

Something about Once Tough Zombie (lol)


It's annoying, yeah, but he's only in the mansion area. Just switch defensive items to Manual and memorize where he can be. When you see him, treat him like a normal Crimson: Run straight for a door and don't attack him PERIOD.
BurnSide
Not bad times at all Nikolaos!

Man, i wish we could get together for some serious rounds of RE lol.
I'm in the process of collecting all the Epilogue Files and Unlocking Tofu again since all my memory cards were wiped, i'll post my times as i do them.

What did you think of Dead Aim?
Nikolaos
Gun Survivor 1+All Other FPS RE games=BAHD!

I guess it was needed for the Story, but the game(s) blew. I was never one for a game that had one rule: Kill Everything.
BurnSide
Needed for the story!? How do you figure!?

Gun Survivor = A random little town, not Raccoon City, has a virus outbreak. Some dude tries to take off in a chopper from the town, falls and loses his memory, and has to battle his way through the city which has exactly the same enemies from Raccoon City in it, including Hunters, Lickers, about 10 Mr. X guys and a secret lab.
CRAP. Totally unnessesary in the RE world.

Dead Aim = SAME sh**. Completely irrelevant in the RE world, having nothing to do with the actual storyline. Not to mention the gameplay for those games is crap, the replay value is crap, everything about them is crap!!!
Nikolaos
Needed for the story as follows:

There's no possible way that only one Umbrella-Controlled Town has an outbreak. In CV(X), there's an outbreak (supposedly caused by Wesker's men). The outbreak on Shena just tells you that Umbrella fudged up again, giving the player the thought that Umbrella's gotta go down. Who knows. Ark/Vincient might even show up again. Leon and Ark/Vincent were the only main characters to not show up in a second game, and he's the star of RE4.

Ex:
Chris: RE1, CV(X)
Jill: RE1, RE3
Leon: RE2, RE4
Claire: RE2, CV(X)
Ark/Vincent: GS1
BurnSide
I know. The reason? Because they're silly little side-stories that don't have ANYTHING to do with the main Resident Evil story, which follows Chris, Jill, Claire and Leon.
The incident with gun Survivor and Dead Aim could both be left completely out of it. They were very, very silly and i was embarrased to have played them to be honest.
Shakezulah
i agree. those were pointless sh** games that shouldnt have been made. i never played Dead Aim but it got bad reveiws and it looked pretty bad. i played Survivor and i was really dissapointed with it. i beat it in like 2 hours my frist time through. if they actualy had something to do with that main story, then they would have been a very little better. i hope Capcom doesnt make another one.
Nikolaos
Oh, come on. The first wasn't that bad. At least it was cannon, unlike GS2. Personally, I don't like ANY story in which Steve lives. *shudders*
BurnSide
In other news, i played through the Original last night beginning to end with Jill. It's been to long obviously, i had a AWFUL total time. 1 hour 50 minutes. sad.gif Looks like i better get some practice in.
Nikolaos
I can't really judge that, lol. I've never played it. I heard anything below 1:30 is good.
BurnSide
..!?

Eh!?


You've never played the original Resident Evil!!????







BLASPHEMY!!!

Brake his legs!!
Nikolaos
Eh? I've never had a reason to buy a PSX?































Break Burnside's legs for being silly!
BurnSide
You can play PS1 games on a PS2 yanno.

I figured since you'd played Gun Survivor, which is also a PS1 game, that you'd at least played the Original Resident Evil.
Rakshasas
The origional was such a great game.I loved it.
BurnSide
I know!
Of course they got better as time went on, but really you can't beat the original.
Rakshasas
I think the Cheesy lines made that game.Of course I love all the horror survival games . I`m just replaying Silent hill the first one.The second I was meh about.
