if you dont play this game, zombies will eat you!!!
The story- resident evil continues the story of the 1st with a different cast of characters, that are lovable. The virus that broke out in the mansion has reached raccoon city, and many people are zombies. You play as a rookie police officer on his first job, and a young woman looking for her brother. Leon and Claire are their names. The story fills in what was lost in the 1st, such as who made the virus and why it was released. It is a very believable story.
The graphics- The best graphics to date on the playstation 1. The environments are prerendered and the enemies are ugly and grotesque. The has a very frightening atmosphere that really works.
The sound- the eerie groans of zombies, the scratching and slurping of zombies walking and eating. Its very disturbing and scary. The background music is also very strange, it fits the areas and is very appropriate. The voice acting, which was horrible in the first, is now much better, the characters seem more scared than confused on what to say, really fits the story.
The gameplay- it is the same as the original, but its still good. There are more monsters, more puzzles, and much more adventure. Youll kill zombies in rooms, youll visit lots of abandoned zombie infested places. The bad thing is that there is still some backtracking like in the original. You still dont have a lot of space in your inventory, and will be really annoying, but it all evens out do to the outstanding experience you have playing resident evil 2.
Resident evil is more scarier and much better than the 1st. If you dont play this game, zombies will eat you.
