Resident Evil characters in Fighting Games?

I'm a little bit surprised they didn't have Leon on Super Smash Bros for the Wii to be honest.

I guess RE isn't an exclusive game for Nintendo

I think what makes characters great in the first place is the context in which they are used or the senarios they struggle to overcome. Take them out of their environment and they just lose their appeal.

So then you wouldn't be interested in a concept I came up with called "Grand Theft Auto: Raccoon City"?

Haha. I'd love to rip Scott's head off. I'm so sick of the Scott fanboys. Maybe we should call him Scottie.

*Scottish accent* I can't do it, I don't have the power!

You what? Interesting... I have this old gaming magazine that had an article about a game called "Grand Theft Evil". It was supposed to use the same engine as GTA3. I was so excited about that when I was a kid but apparently it was just a hoax :/

It was just an old story idea I came up with a long time ago while playing San Andreas and imagining what roles RE characters would play in such an environment according to particular traits. Wesker and William Birkin were crime bosses who ran the Raccoon City mob, Chris was a federal agent trying to bring down Wesker and Birkin, Claire was a journalist trying to do the same, Ada and Nicholai were contract killers working for the mob, Jill was a Delta Force shooter whose team was training the city's newly-formed STARS unit, and so on. I never really did anything with the idea, though. Shortly after conception, I lumped it in with another RE story that I didn't have any motivation to complete due to losing most of the first draft in an HDD crash and stuck them both in an archive where they've remained ever since.

That actually sounds very interesting. Way more interesting than the "Grand Theft Evil" concept where you had a zombie infested city with cars and side missions. Well, we kinda got that (minus the cars) with ORC. I can only imagine how cool the game would've been with your idea and latest gen graphics.

Speaking of fighting games, I just thought I'd throw this in. http://www.psxextreme.com/ps3-news/9509.html

Oh yeah, I heard about this on Hard News This is going to be awesome. The choice was so random it might actually work pretty well.

I love his furnace fatality.

I love the irony that it was Scorpion who got the furnace treatment in the trailer

That'd be like a massage to him.

They should make Albert Wesker a DLC character in Mortal Kombat. His fatality would be the CHRIIIISSSS, where he yells "Chris!" so loud that his opponent's head explodes.

My mind was blown.




Just updatin'

I want to get that game just to play as the RE characters, especially Nemesis.
