Resident Evil Retrospective - (All About The Series ... New RE Fans Come Here)
I thought this might be helpful for any newbies to the series who aren't familiar with the entire RE plot, or any longtime fans who want to brush-up on their RE knowledge. Gametrailers will be releasing six Resident Evil retrospective videos in the next few weeks, giving a rundown of each RE game ...
^ Resident Evil 1 and REmake ^
^ Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 ^
^ Resident Evil: Code Veronica and Resident Evil 0 ^
^ Resident Evil (Mobile and Handheld games) and Resident Evil: Survivor series ^ ^ Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles and Resident Evil: Outbreak series ^

Awesome. I've been a fan of Resident Evil since the very beginning (In America).
Hell, I even have Resident Evil for the PS1 in the BIG box that PS1 games used to come in. I bet some of ya'll weren't even born by the time those boxes were phased out in favor of the traditional cd case size ones. These ones were like the size of dvd cases!
I only have 8 PS1 games left in my library, 4 of them are RE. RE1, RE:DC, RE2 and RE:Nemesis. The other 4 are MGS, Twisted Metal 2 and two personal favorites, Destruction Derby 2 and Twisted Metal 2.
Now...If only I still had a Playstation 1!
Post up the link when the next video comes out please.

Holy shit *bleep*ing Goof Troop! I remember that game. Oh man, I had so much fun with that one. Wow, what memories.
This video got me thinking about how I should play through all the RE games I have before the new one comes out. I own 0-4 (although I probably wont bother with 0), so it would be a nice refresher.

Haha, I remember those cases. Have a few myself for some of the older PS1 titles in my library.

Great vids. RE2 was the first RE I played and will always, for me, be the best (I've even got the soundtrack on my ipod), but I haven't played these for years and I now feel nostalgic for them.
re: Resident Evil Retrospective - (All About The Series ... New RE Fans Come Here)
Yeah. Resident Evil 2 is still my favorite of the series. It's just so amazing.
I'm playing through all the games right now. Still on Resident Evil. Just beat Jill's game and now I want to go through Chris'. Man, that game has such classic dialogue.

Thanks for the vids, Roz.
Barry's lines were killer:
'It's a weapon. It's really powerful. Especially against living things.'
and
'Jill, here's a lockpick. It might be handy if you, the master of unlocking, take it with you.'
Did you play 'Zero' first, or are you playing them in the order capcom actually released them?
re: Resident Evil Retrospective - (All About The Series ... New RE Fans Come Here)
No, I'm actually going to skip RE0. Reason is I cant be bothered to make room to hook up my Gamecube. It's okay though, I've played it before and I read the book a while back. The game I didn't find that interesting anyways.
Yeah, those are some great lines. I always laugh at the first one you mentioned. I mean, what else would the gun be good against?
re: Resident Evil Retrospective - (All About The Series ... New RE Fans Come Here)
I think RE2 was huge mostly because of the 4 scenarios that could be played. Though they should've kept making at least 2 scenarios per game. The replayability would've been pretty good. I used to play the hell out of the N64 version and it was easier because there wasn't any disc changing, just choose your character in the main menu to start Scenario A.

Can't say I blame you. RE 0 was always 'meh' to me. I think it's the only RE I only played through once. I think that was when capcom started to change the format. Didn't they get rid of the storage boxes for this one? That was a real pain the ass just dropping stuff on the floor.
Jill: Gee Barry, well I just killed a mutated snake. Does that count? No, no you're right, this hole is much more interesting....

Remember in the police station in... I think it was 2, when the hunter breaks through the 2 way mirror?
Ah yes I remember that happening. That was in the interrogation room, right? Was it a hunter though? I remember it being a licker for some reason.
