Resident Evil is the most overrated game in existence.

That's not how you spell Dark Souls
>>329448865
>>329448865
I still have my PlayStation and find myself, more often than not, replaying the fuck outta RE2.

Oh, you mean Half Life?
2>3=1
Prove me wrong
I have question: Can a ghost and a zombie come from the same corpse?
So what's the ETA on that remaster?
>>329450926
But they are fucking zombies, unlike in majority of modern "zombie" games
>>329451379
In Shadow Warrior 3D, they do.
>>329451665
When it's done. It isn't even in alpha yet.

I wish I was artistic in literally any way, I could make a decent black comedy out of this
Which RE games do I have to play to understand the plot of RE4? I've already beaten RE1 and Leons scenario A in RE2
>>329448865
Kamiya.
>>329452541
That's really it tbhf. The only returning characters in RE4 are Leon and Ada. Every other character is new. They completely abandon the T-Virus storyline and introduce a new virus.
>>329452541
>Resident Evil 2: ClaireA/LeonB for backstory on Ada**(This is cannon scenarios)
>Resident Evil 1 & Code Veronica: Backstory on Wesker** (Not really required at all, just gives the slightest bit of context for a few scenes)
All in all its perfectly playable standalone
>>329452541
You're kinda already there
All you need to know about RE3 is that Jill survives, and Code Veronica is about Claire going to an Umbrella facility in Europe to shut them down
>>329452731
Wesker isn't even in RE4 you retard, why the fuck would he need to pay 1 and Code Veronica. Completely irrelevant.

>>329452793
Thanks familia. I was thinking about playing 3 but I always heard such bad things about it. Might go back and play the other scenarios in 2
>>329452813
Wesker appear briefly at the end of Assignment: AdaWhere its revealed he is who Ada is working for to retrieve the virus sample
>>329452973
Three is fun in its own way. Its WAAY more action oriented than 1 & 2, but it has its charms. Its probably my least favorite of the classics but its still well worth a play.
Re2 truly captured my imagination as a teenager. I had just discovered all the Romero dead movies and this game let me play through one.

Plus that Romero directed commercial
