wasn't there a revolver and costume in that closet?

its been so long since re2

Yeah, you get to the station without picking anything up, you get to kill the zombie Brad Vickers, and get the closet key. If you play as Claire, there's a costume and Colt SAA. With leon, two costumes.

yeah it shot the same bullets as the handgun, ah brad vickers, didn't nemesis get him though in resident evil 3, i guess thats why he was a zombie in re2

That's right. The first half of RE3, well, technically the first 3/4ths of the game, took place before the events of RE2. Then Jill passes out for a couple days, and wakes up, and the events of RE2 had passed during the night.

The story lines of those 2 game were intertwined so i guess it's possible although RE2 was made before RE3.Also Brad did have a huge hole punched through his skull!

I know, that's the one flaw. Someone can't come back as a zombie if the brain has been destroyed, so why did Brad?

Yeah but i guess they didn't plan for total skull destrution when they made RE2

Even still, that's why they put Brad getting killed in RE3, to explain why he was dead in RE2. So don't you think they would have thought to kill him differently in RE3, to actually allow his to come back?
Silly script writers.

so if thats true umbrella sent in mr x and nemesis..

but there was damage in the poilce station caused by both

was it consistent in both games i can't recall...

No, when jill visited the station, all the doors besides a few where completely boarded up, as well as the courtyard was littered with debris, not to mention the damage Nemesis did, and when Leon/Claire arrive there the next day, theres no sign of boards over the doors, the courtyard is completely clear, etc etc. Go figure. Terrible plot flaws.
Marvin Bragnah was still alive when Jill arrived at the station though, just passed out. He dies when leon gets there.

well maybe they thought nobody would notice, i guess they were wrong, why they didn't just make a direct sequel is beyond me, i mean nemesis to me just seemed like an update of mr x from resident evil 2 scenario b, re3 just didn't seem a fresh game to me, i enjoyed it the least....

Yeah but finding Vickers in RE2 was a bonus not in the acuall story.
Almost like a side mission.

I know what you mean Mr Halo mate, indeed when i first played it i found it to be more of an expansion pack or side mission to RE2 myself. But it's grown to be my favourite of the PS RE games, i much prefer it to RE2. The story isn't great, but the gameplay is much better. Nemesis rules, and Jill has tons of moves and stuff not in RE2, plus the graphics are better as well as the enemies themselves, etc.

I think RE3 was the best cause of the intense gameplay involved with running from Nemesis.
I love that music.

the only resident evil game i completed on the playstation was resident evil, oh and half of resident evil 2, it wasn't until i got a dreamcast that i completed resident evil 2, resident evil 3 and resident evil CV

Fair enough.
Yeah the first time i played CV was on Dreamcast, i actually rented a DC to play it before buying one. CVX on the PS2 is much better though, becuase of the new videos. Wesker kicks Claires ASS.

yeah i have the video of all the extra movies in the ps2 version of CV somewhere on my computer, i feel they should carry on from CV as soon as possible

That storyline was done with sadly.
There's one small mag clipping with reguards to RE5, they say it'll be taking off from the end of Assignment Ada in RE4, where Wesker retrieves the sample of the Las Plagas virus, and uses it to re-create Umbrella.

The story with the STARS, and claire, is apparently finished. Which is sad, becuase they just leave just hanging with Wesker escaping and all that. Boo!

what?

but chris redfield said its pay back time, i want pay back, i mean he had a fighter jet to get pay back with

Yeah, but then they decided to scrap that storyline.
At the beginning of RE4, which is 6 years later, it's explained that Umbrella was fined several billion dollars, bankrupting the company, and issued a court order never to do business again, which was shortly after the Raccoon incident.
So Chris didn't actually have anyone to payback.

They always put that at the end of RE games, just so they have something to go on if they did continue.

Yeah but i think that if Wesker is the new bad guy then this new RE will be awesome! I've been waiting for so long to kill Wesker.

hahah yeah i know, we all have
Wesker will be the ultimate last-boss because he's been the main bad guy for so long and we've never gotten a chance to fight him at all except in cutscenes.

Yeah and you know what I'm gonna say wif and when i see him in the frist cutscene of the new game.

"And this time it's personal"!

hahah it was always personal, he's managed to piss off Jill, Chris, Barry, Claire, Leon, Rebecca etc etc so there aren't really any main characters they could use who don't have some personal vendetta against him.

I hope him and Krauser team up in RE5 to make the new Umbrella!

... and what happened to Krauser in RE4?

im guessing he died? but in anycase i hate how jill was scrapped after one game, and i hate even more how leon is in re4...i mean it makes sense and all, but i really wish they stuck with the original team of chirs, jill, barry, etc

Jill wasn't scrapped after one game.. she's the main character in two.
As they all are:

RE1: Chris/Jill
RE2: Leon/Claire
RE3: Jill
RECV: Claire/Chris
RE4: Leon

Two games each.

jill is in re3? i never knew that, wow where have i been? lol

with that system though...of the two games each....whos gonna be in 5?

I'm guessing it'll probably be Leon(hopefully they won;t bring in some new guy)
But it could be a number of people.I guess Chris has the most "beef" with Wesker(if Wesker is the bad guy in this one)so it could be him.

hahah, she's the character you play in the whole thing, besides 5 mins with Carlos. Never played it?



It's a tough one. It seems like Leon would be most likely, i can pretty much garantee it will be either Leon or a new character/characters. Capcom has said the 'old storyline with STARS' is finished.

I'm actually hoping for a new Character myself.
Someone with no experience with the viruses before. Someone who kind of just wakes up one day and finds himself in a world infested with Ganados and mutations, and has to fight to survive in the streets, looking for weapons and ammo, and then later on maybe meeting up with Leon or some other familiar faces, and teaming up with them to take down the newly resurrected Umbrella.

I saw on some site that resident evil 5 might be about A new company called BioTech (i think thats what they sed it was called) following in unbrellas footsteps, freeing some of the scientists from umbrella from jail, and making a new, WAY more powerful virus that could take out the whole western hemisphere in a couple o weeks. didnt say anything about any new characters tho. Heres hopin for Leon

hey blackninja
ive played resedent evil once or twice and its really fun a bit gory but still lots of fun cuz i has gore and killing and death and zombies and thats what everygame sould hade DEATH BLOOD GORE VIOLENCE AND ZOMBIES AND GUNS AND CHAIN SAWS
but i havent played all of them
BLOOD, DEATH, BIG ASS GUNS, SHOOTING, DEAD THINGS, EXPLODING PPL, ALL GOOD

I have played Resi Evil once and thats all, but ive looked at the stuff about it and im reading the series. And i dont mind the blood and limb removal and chainsaws and bodies chopped in half, JUST INSIDES!! stupid resident evil 4.. i hate that first part with the crippled doggie, then ya go in, and POW! and horribly mutilated corpse! mm mm good! lol.

P.S. I dont mind exploding heads if u dont see brains

Rumours and lies i'm afraid, as i said, so far the only thing that capcom has released reguarding RE5 is a very very small interview with EGM that says RE5 will follow the events from RE4. That's IT, literally.

The graphics of RE have always been great for the time. I just love seeing the zombies heads explode.

Indeed they have. Back in the day 96 the first RE was absolutely incredible in terms of graphics. Lousy as hell for todays standards, but it was never ment to shape up to todays standards.

yes they were great graphics at that time, the same with resident evil 2, although there wasn't any improvement from resident evil 2 to resident evil 3, they could of been the same game...

I disagree, there was a huge graphics improvement from 2 to 3.
The same engine was used, but RE3 looked amazing compared to RE2.

resident evil 3 had worse graphics than resident evil 2 if anything, they looked more blocky and less detailed...

here are some screenshots, see what you think?

I really don't see why you think RE3 looks worse.

It's quite clear to me that RE2 has alot less polygons and looks much worse.

maybe they spent a lot less time on the reident evil 3 conversion for the dreamcast than they did for resident evil 2

I do have to say, in screenshots RE2 does look better, but that's because they put less work into the details. In movement, i find RE3 looks brilliant, especially the enemies.

I've never seen the DC versions, so the port may indeed be flawed, but my opinion stands that it looks better. Which makes sense since it came out a year or so after.

I agree with mister halo. after looking at those screnshots i think that resi 2 graphics are better cuz they arent all messed up and pixelated like the resident evil 3 pictures

Indeed, as i just said,

Case in point, they wouldn't release a game that looks worse, common sense.

That does make sense. im geussing then that they didnt do as great a job as they did on the conversion of resi 2 then on the conversion of resi 3

And i have a question. What is Code Veronica all about, cuz i thot that all the zombies went bye bye after resi 3 and they just started with those ppl in resi 4 that all like possesed or something.

Resident Evil Code Veronica is technically the forth installment in the series, it follows the events of Resident Evil 2/3/Outbreak which happened in Raccoon City.

After word got out about the incident in Raccoon City, the President ordered Raccoon nuked, and now it sits as a gaping hole in the land. A court order was placed upon Umbrella, banning them from all research in the future.
However, Umbrella had other secret labs and locations. Just before the outbreak, Chris Redfield travelled to Paris to learn more about an Umbrella HQ there. Claire went to Raccoon looking for Chris, and found out he'd gone to Paris.

Three months later, Claire inflitrates the Paris Umbrella HQ, and is captured by Umbrella. They imprison her on an island, Rockfort, in the middle of the Pacific. However, while she is there, the island is attacked by one of Umbrellas enemies. The T Virus on the island, which was being developed in secret labs, is unleashed on the island. Claire escapes her cell, only to find herself trapped on an island full of zombies and monsters.

As the story goes on, she teams up with a young man called Steve Burnside, and together they escape the island on a plane. But the plane, on auto-pilot, crashes into Antartica by a remote Umbrella base where secret and disturbing experiments were going on involving the virus. After several planes on autopilot crash there, the virus is released, and the base is infected.

Meanwhile, Chris learns of Claires capture, and makes his way to Rockfort, only to find she fled to Antartica. He follows her there, and they team up and escape, blowing the base to bits in the meantime.

There's alot more to it than that, Wesker is in it, etc, but that's the very basics of the story.
