Resident Evil 2

    So I have to be honest here and say even though I’m a huge RE4 fan, it is actually the first RE game I’ve actually played.  And because of it, I’m really looking forward to RE5 come spring time.  So anyway, I’ve been hearing about the new animated Resident Evil movie and how it is directly tied to the happenings of Resident Evil 2.  Since I’ve heard that I’ve been looking around to get my hands on a copy of it so that I could play it.  This past Saturday I happened to find a copy for the Nintendo Gamecube for $30.  I was super excited to take it home and play it. 

     When I got home I popped it into my Wii cause I had some free time.  The opening cinematic experience was pretty nice, and then the game started.  Now my only other game to help my frame of reference for RE2 was RE4:  Wii edition(which is an awesome game).  So I was used to seeing like a heads up display of what my health was, how much ammo I had left, and stuff like that.  But no, In RE2 you get to tell how much health you have by looking at the condition of Leon/Claire.  And as for ammo, you can see how much you have from you menu.  The games controls are far from what most would consider easy.  I’m still not sure if I was doing it right.  And also, do the zombie actually die ever?   Now, I realize that this game was made in 1998 for the Playstation, and then remade for the Nintendo Gamecube in 2003.  So its already a decade old.  So my conclusion is, if you liked RE2 when you played it back then, it’s probably still good for you.  If you didn’t play it back then, don’t play it know.
