Resident Evil 1 Remake

If you could take a wild guess why do you think the RE series is a bit less well known and an underdog?

Well I certainly don't see commercials everywhere...although just enough to where I know it exists...

Perhaps the gameplay was a turnoff for newcomers? Who knows...

I think Gears of War having played 1 and 2 is overrated for sure. much prefer RE any day Much like the Legend of Zelda when it comes to RE its an aquired taste and either you love it or you hate it. I don't know why but RE I think does not appeal to the masses like other game series.

And yeah for some reaosn a lot of closed minded people get impatient with the gameplay. When I first played my first RE game (RE1 Remake) 7-8 years ago it was annoying at first because the controllers were dodgy but that in a sense is what made the game so good. On my first of the RE1 Remake it took me about 4 months to complete it as opposed nowadays where it takes me about 3 days to complete it.

The gameplay was tough at first, but once you get used to it, it isn't bad, nor is it good, it is just there, and you can do it.

Once you get into RE though, it just sucks you in.

I like the MGS series too, it has alot of the same cool stuff, characters, gameplay, music, story, etc., it has like everything that RE does, but RE just does it a bit better, well much better.

Metal Gear solid is a fantastic series esspecially sons of liberty and snake eater.

You do get sucked into the RE gameplay for sure but i did find to progress past the first few rooms in the RE1 remake I had to buy a stratergy guide. if you play the re1 remake at the age of 13 you have to be a genius to figure out some of the puzzles.

There are parts of the game that are a bit tricky, that's why there is a rated M on there. Suggested for gamers 17 years of age, or older.

Yeah but to be fair the puzzles in RE0 are tougher than the RE 1 remake.

Some, but alot of that can be given to the fact that most of those puzzles were built for the two characters.

Yeah. Speaking of the characters the voice acting for Billy was very bad wasn't it?

A little off-topic...but do you mean David Webster as Billy in RE0? He was awesome, did a great job.

I wish I could say the same for the guy who voiced him in UC, but he was very bad...unfortunately. The guy from RE0 though, he was great.

What I find funny is thte difference between Enricos voice in RE1 Remake and RE0.

RE0 sounded like it did in the original actually, the same quality of voice. The REmake was cool though, I'm not sure which I like more, but both were really fitting...

Off topic but I don't know how Enrico actually ended up injured in the first place? I think Wesker must have confronted him at gun point in the caves and shot him in the leg. I don't know?

I doubt it was Wesker, but then again, it could very well be.

Not sure what kind of would Enrico had, possible that it was a bullet wound. He knew there was a traitor in STARS, he seemed to figure out alot of what was going on actually...maybe he saw the BOW slide show...

He might have been poisoned or attacked by a hunter?

A bit off topic but Kenneth Sullivan must have been really bad at using gun if he could not have killed that zombie that mauled him.

He first seemed like he was caught off guard. Secondly, the zombie, while slow, was moving towards him pretty quick, and very unnaffected by bullets, or anything.

As for Enrico, his wound looked a bit more like a bullet wound, than anything he could have got from a Hunter, in fact, had he been wounded by a Hunter, he probably wouldn't have had a leg...or a head for that matter.

Who do you think gave him the bullet wound? lol funny how the zombie was running at him, does not really make sense.

Actually speaking of the remake where was William Birkin during the mansion incident?

If it was even that...I am just flinging around random ideas...actually you started it, provoked random ideas...I am content with just not knowing how he was wounded, for now.

William was probably in his lab under the city. He moved there in 1992 if I remember correctly, or maybe it was 91?

Well he was discovering things, like G, and working more on T, and creating the ulitimate bio-weapon.

Did William also do research work at the Arklay mansion as well?

That site does have alot of great info, but it also takes alot of liberties in order to fill in gaps, with info that is just assumed, and that is something I really dislike, therefore I don't really use it.

Spike has a little joke when someone makes a random assumption, saying, "he must've got it from Wikipedia."

wikipedia is a darn good website. Has helped me when it comes to work.

jamesy do you use the resi wiki

The Resident Evil Wiki is so hard to guarantee facts on, it's not worth the trouble.

I can be, for certain things, like movies, or basic things on games, but it, like RE Wiki, and other RE sites, takes some liberties that aren't really true, just assumed...making them unreliable.
