Nothing, I was just saying that I like it. Survivor is one of my favorite REs.

I look forward to play it. Hope I'll enjoy it. My favourite is RE1 original so far I played it during my childhood, so it is quite nostalgic for me. I know that there are many other RE games and I hope I'll play them all, but I doubt that any of those replace RE1 for me.

Yeah RE Survivor was the bomb
Loved playing it and best played with a Namco G-con 45 light gun

@Ace.

@Evil. Yeah RE2 is the exact same for me aswell
Brings back nostalgia big time, and brings me back to my childhood
To be honest the feelings amazing
Another game that I have been playing recently that brings me back to my childhood
is Klonoa

The ink blot tests are specifically designed to depict many certain objects or ideas at the same time. So if you look at one, it may look like a wolf to you, or a frowning face, or a gun. Though people will say different things, because the ink blots have been intentionally designed to look like many different things at the same time, certain objects and ideas are said more than others. Here: Ink Blot Test You can see that there are multiple choices and you will probably look at each choice and try to find it in the card. You will probably be able to see at least a few of them in the same card. In a real test, you won't be given choices. You will just say what you see, or what you feel you see. Being a psychology student, I really haven't seen much on this type of test. I assume it is probably used in the psychodynamic area of the field. Personally, I feel that the psychodynamic theory is old, dated, and near useless. Freud was a psychodynamic theorist and it is still the most widely used theory to date and it is what one usually thinks of when thinking of therapy. Someone laying on a couch telling their life story and then the therapist trying to interpret their dreams, past experiences, etc. Take it from me, if you ever go to therapy and you are given an ink blot test, you should find someone else. It will save you time and money. I agree most with the cognitive and behavioral theories of psychology.

@Nite: Understood. I like Systems thinking theory. I suppose it is completely relevant to my mental skills and my own life experience. And particularly I like system intelligence theory/some kind of movement in Finland (it is about extent of inborn systems thinking rate for different people). Anyway it is already off topic...

Haven't really heard of that theory. The theories I mentioned are all broad ways of thinking of psychology. What you are talking about seems like it might just be a subset of one of those theories.

Yes. I suppose so.

Wait, what, Finland?

the inborn system thinking rate for different people... hmmm... i think it's when a mother experiences an emotion of anger and sorrow, like from a friend in a fight, the baby would carry that same emotion towards the person until the child grows up... theres this story i've heard in class where the mother wants to commit suicide because of the accidental baby she has and a few years lated that girl (the baby) had grown up without the emotion of love for her mom.. i think thats it

No!! It is completely different thing! I meant "systems thinking" - ability to understand complex systems, problem solving capabilities. "Systems thinking is the process of understanding how things influence one another within a whole."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_thinking

Systems intelligence is intelligent behavior in complex systems, that are often human in nature. It is just describing that people used to think in systems to solve complex problems... it is all about systmes, thinking, problem solving, innate capabilities.. it is not about suicide or something like that

@Mass Distraction: Yes, I just said that the concept of "Systems intelligence" was formulated in the Laboratory of Systems Analysis at the Helsinki University of Technology, Finland, fall 2002.

I was interested some time ago in these things so I just said that I like these theories from what I know about psychology.

Uhm, did I say welcome to you?

Hmm. Oh well, Hello! Welcome to the forums?!

You did now haha Hi Methsia!

I assume you're now playing Gaiden? I thought you were going to play the games in order

Ohh...That my problem. I'd like to play them all in a right order. The thing is I finished RE 1 and 2, read Umbrella Conspiracy and Caliban Cove books, and to play RE3 Nemesis I need to read "City of the Dead" and "Underworld" just to know the whole plot before I start play RE3. But I can't just read, I don't have such patience I have to play something some time or watch movies just to take a rest from reading... I decided to try to play some spin-off game with characters I already know which won't ruin the whole Resident Evil story. I chose Resident Evil Gaiden for that purpose Great game I must say
And I like retro-style games. Grate graphics and music haha

Gaiden is a really good game, the battle theme is awesome. I also like that it has some rpg elements.

You don't need to read the books to know the whole story, as the books only reveal stuff in a different canon The events of Underworld have nothing to do with RE3.

I made a chronology list of everything RE a while back, if need be you can check it out: http://www.residentevilforums.net/t1788-resident-evil-chronology-timeline#23316

Yeah, only the canon games tell the true storyline. The books/movies/comics/etc should really only be viewed as someone else's take on the story.

Except Degeneration. That movie's still canon with the games.

Indeed.

I understand, but it's still interesting to take a deep look inside, try to imagine what characters feel and think.

@Mass Distraction: Thanks. Very useful and handy information.

Too bad I have RE4 on my PC but I didn't played RE3, Code Veronica, Resident Evil 0 yet and I suppose I won't have this opportunity during nearest time. I have a tricky question to RE experts So will it be harmful for storyline if I will finish RE4 before RE3, Code Veronica and Resident Evil 0?

RE4 kind of starts fresh and really doesn't give much away from the previous games. There are a few characters from the previous games though. It's up to you.
