Resident Evil

The only good news about that is I won't be sad if I lose. Regardless I would prefer it not to be so.

I want to see the last film just to know how they can possibly end it.

In a really dumb way, I bet.

I wonder what direction they'll go for 7? Will probably end up being Revelaitons 3, basically.

If video game Alice doesn't at one point mention a "Leeloo Dallas Multipass" then she'll be shit

Care to elaborate where'd you hear that?

Pretty much every game in the series was part of Playstation's Halloween sale this year, so I'm now the owner of Resident Evil: Director's Cut, RE2, RE3, RE4 HD, and Code: Veronica X HD.

I'm almost finished Director's Cut. I just got into the secret lab. I'm actually having a surprising amount of fun with it! For something that controls so archaically, and fails on just about every level when it comes to believable characters, it holds up surprisingly well. As long as you know what you're getting into. :P

I should have enough ammo and healing items to reach the end of the game, but they're starting to fall distressingly low. My shotgun is fully loaded, and I think I have enough shells to stock it up twice more once it's empty, and I have nine magnum shots left (Hunters have an annoying tendency to leap in the air right as I'm about to shoot them). And in case of emergency, I've got plenty left for the handgun.

Healing items are more concerning. I've got a handful of herbs left, and maybe two first aid sprays. I have way more blue herbs than anyone could ever want, though, and I think I'm past the point where poison is relevant. As long as there are no more spiders, and I don't get stupid around Hunters, that should be more than enough.

Also, I got extraordinarily lucky with the Black Tiger and killed it with one incendiary shot from the grenade launcher. I actually fired twice because I didn't think it could've possibly been that easy and that it was only stunned.

As spoiler free as possible, no more spiders. Things will go From Bad to Worse from here, try and pick and choose your battles. If you run into a problem your handgun can't solve, run away. In fact legging it should be standard operating procedure up till near the end, you'll know it when you see it. To get the best ending try and keep your partner alive and explore every nook and cranny for clues of what to do to get who's left out alive.

Finished the game a few days ago. I didn't bother to kill the Chimeras in the power room (which was probably a mistake, since I ended up having to heal a lot to get through it; damn, they're fast), but I had plenty of ammo to take out everything else in the facility. Beating the final boss took me a couple tries, but I did get the best ending.

It's strange how Wesker's fate is completely unaddressed if you get the best ending.

In all of Chris's endings you do see Wesker get gored by the Tyrant. In Jill's best, he slinks off unnoticed after Barry coldcocks him. In the PSX version you can go back to the control room the self-destruct computer was in to find Wesker freshly beheaded by a Chimaera, whilst in the Remake you don't and he magically vanishes.

GUYS, I THINK WESKER SURVIVED THE EVENTS OF RESI 1!

LONG SHOT, I KNOW!

That's crazy talk. Stop talking crazy.

Yeah, keep your silly voodoo headcanon fanon to yourself.

Next you'll say that Chris owns a fighter jet and punches out rocks.

Why would you ever go back to the control room? Especially with the alarm blaring? I just wanted to get out. :P

The timer doesn't start until you get to the last elevator :V

And if you're not bothered about beating the game inless than 3 hours its a neat little detour.

I didn't say the timer, I said the alarm. The high-pitched beeping that doesn't stop until you reach the helipad (minus the scene in the cell with Chris).

Well okay. That and Lynn H Arris on the PA constantly going "THE TRIGGERING Sy STEM HAS NOW BEEN ACTIVATED ALL RESEARCHERS AND GUARDS SHOULD TAKE COVER IMMEDIATELY"

...Did not hear that.

Is that in the remake?

1:40 says it all

It was in the PSX version. You can't hear her over the alarms and music but she's there.

...Huh.

All Employees...

Try out Ada's mode in RE 4.

So I beat Resi 4 on Professional mode for the second time ever (First time was on the Wii versionw here the excellent motion aiming helped and second time was on PS 3.)

It was an amazing ride but there were some really bullshit annoying segments. They gave me a shit load of grief on Pro mode but I got the laser gun so HA

But anyway the things I hated or at least were really annoying on Pro mode:

• Fighting the first El Gigante
• The cabin siege
• The never ending army of Ganados on the left hand path, yanno, where the Bella sisters appear
• Bitores Mendez, Packers fan (Legs are for Bears fans.)
• The Hall of Doom in Chapter 3-2 was it? The one with all the cranks, monks, shields and Plaga spam. I actually ran low on ammo and got on by using the semi-auto Rifle loads.
• The cave of WAY TOO MANY FUCKING NOVISTADORS
• The minecart AKA Leon Kennedy and the Temple of Doom.
• Climbing Salazar's tower
• Leon and Mike's Amazing Slaughter

And yet Salazar is still piss easy on Pro mode. And having the Special 2 costumes on helps heaps.

Just remembered this. Good times.

Funfact- for some reason the Novistador(s) will die in one hit if they're flying.

The wiki says they're at their weakest during flight.

So I'm played RE4 (which my PC can barely run on the lowest resolution) and I'm kinda stuck. I can't remember the guy's name but it's the boss fight after you get off the lift (which is where I noticed that Ashley gives a little cheer whenever you kill an enemy, amusingly). His first form is stupidly easy since I can just run back and forth on the second floor and he never hit me (and I have nearly 150 rounds of ammo for my Red9 so I'm cool there). It's his second phase that's giving me pain because I have no idea how to effectively fight him. I can kinda run back and forth on the ground floor and hit him two or three times but it's not even remotely reliable since I still get hit and die. Is there something special I'm supposed to do that I'm missing?

Are you talking about the Chief (i.e. the centipede man)? Try save up your incendiary grenades, blow him to the ground with the shotgun and burn the bastard. He should die after 4 - 5 times.
