I am extremely disappointed with all three of these sports meeting, even the forth one. It may partly have to do with the fact that I played Resident Evil 4 on the wii before the PS2 so of course my outdated system would seem dismal. The sports meeting are awkward and hard. The controls are ridiculous and makes the sports meeting not very fluid. Accessing your weapons is hard, especially when you are under the stressful situation of being mauled by a bunch of zombies. The sports meeting do not grant nearly enough ammunition that you need, and you find yourself kicking and punching zombies more than using your gun. Also, unlike the wii sports meeting (where you can shake the remote and free yourself from a android that’s attacking) you have no way to fend yourself once a android starts to attack you-you just have to take the hurt until someone frees you or the android is done attacking. By and large I would not recommend these sports meeting for the PS2. I do but, highly recommend Resident Evil 4 for the wii and also the multi-player Resident Evil-Umbrella Chronicals.

You know when I witnessed the local kids playing Resident Evil Code Veronica X you have no thought the level of dread I felt for the future of the series. These were kids who started playing the series once Code Veronica was ported form the DreamCast to the PS2 and instantly shunned the original Resident Evil sports meeting on the PlayStation (one of these kids, the leader of the idiot team of course was only one year younger than me).
Unfortunately, my dread became plain and has stayed plain onward. Resident Evil is never going to be the unique small adventurous, ultra gory, atmospheric small Alone in the Dark rip-off I remember it as because when a company considers three of the most broken, overly action packed, laughable additions to the series as ‘essential,’ then something is very incorrect. The atmosphere that the Resident Evil that was introduced in 1996 (thirteen years ago) is NEVER coming back and it’s all thanks to its so-called sequels that were nearly entirely dedicated to not anything but action.
Seriously, look at what they have: Resident Evil Code Veronica X, the port of the all ready overly action packed jerk-fest with a John Woo gunslinging Leonardo Dicaprio dork and a one dimensional antagonist with the addition of a character who magically survived the previous sports meeting by a continuity error that was later clarified in Umbrella Chronicles in that classic five year ancient “because I said so” excuse solely so said character could be the equivalent of The Terminator meets The Matrix.
Then there’s Resident Evil Outbreak, the first online survival horror game ever made and quite possibly the worst (second only to Outbreak file #2) with more of those random cameo characters the developers loved so much they had to include them in the game by snapping the continuity in pieces. Add to the broken release-player game play with some of the most obnoxious enemy AND friendly AI ever made and some of the most atrocious enemy designs made and you’ve got pain elemental in one game.
Then you’ve got EVERYONE’s favorite blend of Hollywood action slop and campiness, 4resident evil (hey, that’s literally how it’s spelled), a game where the only dread you’ll get is laughing yourself to death he moment you see the so called ‘terrorists’ you’re fighting. I just need to question: What are game developer’s obsession with playing the role of alpha male in sports meeting? Does a game become an instant classic when you have a to baby sit a foxy young woman in loose clothes who can’t defend herself, whose first shape are literally “Don’t come?” I’m honest, that’s the first line she has! You know what happened to sports meeting where you have to rescue a woman who screams those words at you??
The latter game proves one thing about our generation of horror gaming: If I ever need cash and I know how to develop a game, I’ll just rip off Splinter Cell and Metal Gear Solid, throw in some heads popping every time the character so much as breathes on them coupled with rag doll physics, have some pervert in an overcoat sell you nasty things you can fit on to your gun in exchange for illogical fetch-quests and mini-sports meeting, throw in maybe one or two monsters and have you defend a hot, foxy woman in an iron lung and call it a horror game. I’d make MILLIONS!!

the resident evil series is my favorite title of all time, so as a person that owns all the game, except for the gamecube ones. whats the point in getting this? splendid for newcomers i guess, but these sports meeting have been out for a long time. why didn’t they place “RE zero” and “the remake version on the original” on the PS2? that would make much more sense sense, especially for people like me who haven’t played those. I take upon yourself sales would be much higher too and RE lovers would be much more pleased.
