Resident Evil 101: Ink Ribbon Under My Pillow

I love me some Resident Evil. I mean, I Loooove me some Resident Evil. I once owned a 10 foot cardboard cutout movie standee, for the first movie, that I could not fit in my front door(Alice lived in the basement). I own the huge Resident Evil encyclopedia and raise my fist to the air and mumble "Damn you...." every time I smell Wesker's Old Spice.

Like most people who breath air, I troll wikipedia for plot summaries of metal gear and RE in my leisure time, and today I found the mother load. A game I've never heard of, and perhaps for some good reasons... Resident Evil Survior 2: Code Veronica.


Now I know Reisdent Evil Survivor sucked bigtime and so does every game that doesn't have a number in the title other than Code Veronica. But this could be different. This could be the one off shoot game that puts Outbreak in its place and tells the Resident Evil Gaiden (where your on a cruise ship of terror) to Shut Up!!!.

Nope.

The game looks and plays like garbage. But the saving grace could be a great storyline, that might of been forgotten. Some big plot reveals, held for the hardocores, who would weather such a storm.

Nope.

"The game's events are actually a dream which Claire is having after escaping Rockfort Island with Steve before the second half of Code: Veronica, and as such has no connection to the main series' storyline."- wiki

Pullin a Bob Newhart. Shits Weak! At least we still have this!
