Resident Evil Outbreak
Posted on by admin
Zombies and scares have always been the name of the game in the Resident Evil franchise - in fact, it's been the name of the game for nearly eight years with few alterations to the successful formula. Like that zombie that just won't die despite a shotgun wound to the chest, Resident Evil keeps coming back, much to the delight of fans, and now you can take it online with Resident Evil: Outbreak and share your distaste for zombies the world over.
Fret not Resident Evil fans, Resident Evil: Outbreak is essentially the same game you know and love minus a few changes. There are still plenty of zombies that are achin' to gnaw at your neck, but now instead of going at it alone, you're working with several other characters - controlled by either the computer or other players if you take it online - to complete the scenarios. However, just because you're stuck in the same boat doesn't mean you have to work together. Your adventure is completely independent from one another, and there's really no pressure to work together. Another staggering difference is that Resident Evil: Outbreak is divided into five different scenarios that are pretty independent of each other ' meaning, there's no longer a cohesive story. Yet despite these differences, Resident Evil: Outbreak is essentially the same as previous incarnations: your ultimate goal is still survival, which is achieved by shooting zombies and solving puzzles while overcoming the often-awful camera angles. If you loved it before, you'll probably love it here.
This will require a copy of Resident Evil Outbreak File #2. Using the data conversion mode, import everything you unlocked from Outbreak File #1. Then, take your Outbreak File #2 data and export it back to File #1. This will unlock everything for purchase that you may have not already accessed. Resident Evil Outbreak is also the first Resident Evil game to feature online play. Complete tasks, solve puzzles, and battle zombies individually or as a group.
However, here's the hefty downside: there's little to no communication with your teammates. That's right, no voice chat and no chatting with a USB keyboard. You can only communicate with teammates through 'ad-lib'? movements that only encompass a few short phrases that are really no help at all. With such a loss in communication, the result is that you and the other players often wander off alone, circumventing that whole interaction thing that makes online games so fun. Granted, it was likely done to keep the sense of tension high, but in the end it seems to discourage teamwork, and isn't that what cooperative online games are all about?
Another major gripe is that there's a lot of loading. Without a HDD, every door you walk through will require a pretty substantial loading time. Combine that with the fact that areas are small and filled with a lot of doors, and then you'll see the problem. Supposedly, it's better with the hard drive that shipped with Final Fantasy XI, but it's something to be wary of from the outset.
You have to give Resident Evil: Outbreak credit for trying something new and succeeding on most levels, but if you were hoping that it would take the series in a new direction, then you might be disappointed because it's essentially a standard Resident Evil title with an online component. If you didn't like any of the other offerings with the Resident Evil name attached to it, then Resident Evil: Outbreak will do little to change your mind ' however, if you're a fan and can get past some of the major problems, then there's a lot to love here.

Resident Evil Outbreak Game Movie
Evil Resource is proud to announce initial coverage for the remake of Resident Evil 3!
Coverage!
As we did with the RE2 Remake, as soon as this game was released we dived straight into recording its content. Behind the scenes on this site we have been uploading the data, and today we feel we have covered enough to reveal our progress.
As well as the usual interactive maps (and these have been quite complex given the size of some of the new areas), we have catalogued the items, files, enemies and various miscellaneous objects and plotted where they appear within the Standard game difficulty. We are still missing the final images for a few things, but rest assured these are coming.
