Resident Evil 2 (Preview) (E)
 |
Description |
Twice the recommended daily dose of Evil!Even though Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine were able to destroy the Umbrella corporation's undead monsters in the original Resident Evil, they were ultimately unable to prevent the zombie disease from spreading. As either Claire Redfield, biker chick and sister of Chris, or Leon Kennedy, a rookie cop on his first day of the job, your character arrives in the sleepy midwestern town of Raccoon City only to find the city in flaming ruins due to the inhabitants having been transformed into mindless flesh-eating freaks. Although Claire and Leon soon team up, they are separated from each other and trapped inside the city by an accidental car crash. Barracading themselves within the Raccoon City police station, each character must find a way to escape from the nightmare while solving the mystery of what happened to Raccoon City. Each character will gain the periodic assistance of a fellow survivor... Leon will team up with a mysterious but well armed woman calling herself Ada Wong, while Claire will find herself charged with protecting a little girl named Sherry Birkin. Besides the zombie population (which is much more diverse than the original, including teen girl zombies, maniac cop zombies, and even melting naked zombies), Claire and Leon will also have to deal with a variety of freakish mutants including giant poisonous spiders, walking venus-fly-traps, and speedy wall-crawling Lickers. They will also be pursued by not one but two seemingly unstoppable foes... a horrific and constantly evolving man-monster known as the "G-Type", and a taciturn but inhumanly powerful Umbrella agent who is nonetheless saddled with the rather quaint name of Mr. X (I suppose you could call him Mr. T if you really want to, since he IS helluva tough).Like the previous game in the series, Resident Evil 2 is a 3D action-adventure using three-dimensional polygon characters over two-dimensional pre-rendered backgrounds, with the action viewed through a variety of cinematic fixed camera angles in each room. Just like the original Resident Evil, players can choose to play as one of two possible characters. Each character goes through the same initial scenario, but with differences in the type of weaponry they find and the people they meet along the way. Unlike the original Resident Evil, beating the game for the first time unlocks a second scenario to be played with the character you didn't choose, with all new locations, maps, enemies, and a longer more climactic ending. Your actions in the first scenario can also affect the outcome of certain events in the second scenario. Additionally ammo and healing items are more plentiful than in the original game, although you still aren't given enough bullets to kill every enemy you meet.Certain editions of the game include special extras such as an "arrange mode" of the game which features different item/enemy placement as well as an auto-targeting feature, and an "extreme battle mode" which is a special mini-game which discards story and puzzles to focus solely on combat. The PC Platinum edition of the game also includes an in-game viewer that allows you to look at concept art, 3D character models, and FMV movies as you unlock them by playing the game. |

Extra Costumes To get extra costumes for the game, you must first play the game on normal. DO NOT get the extra ammo in the gun-shop or on the bus. When you get to the Police station, near the subway there is a zombie. If you look closely, you will see that it is Brad Vickers, the helicopter pilot from the first one. After killing him, inspect his corpse and you will find a key. This key will unlock a shelf somewhere in the police station that you couldn't before. Inside it are extra costumes for Claire and Leon. How to get all the Ranks S Rank: Beat the game in 1:30. Use only One herb. don't use any weapon upgrades, no special weapons (like the R. Launcer) and don't pick a weapon up more than one time, like if you pick up the shot gun from the weapon owner, don't go and get it on the police station. A Rank: Beat the game under 3:00 and don't use any first aid, no special weapons. B Rank: Just beat the game under 3:00 C Rank: Finish the game in 5 to 7 hours D Rank: Beat the game over 7 hours Secret Photo In the STARS Office, check Wesker's desk, then continue to check it until right around the 50th time. Take the film to the dark room, and develop it and you will get a secret photo of Rebecca from the first Resident Evil |
"Easter eggs"

Shoot The Camera To do this, go to the outside area in the basement where two dogs jump down from the fence. Quickly stand with your back facing the manhole and walk forward until the camera angle changes. Now draw your weapon and shoot. Then, bullet holes will appear on the screen Note: Use only shotgun. Other weapons will not work. |
Glitches

Extra Ammo Before you use the custom parts on the VP70(Handgun), Desert Eagle(Magnum) or Shotgun use the remaing ammo in the clip/breech. When you use the custom parts to upgrade the gun it will automatically be fully loaded. This may seem like a small amount of ammo but can go a long way in the harder difficuties were ammo is rarer. |
