Introduction;
During my fourteen, soon to be fifteen years, I've been around Resident Evil games. I was young, terribly so, when I was first watching my parents play them - and they scared the living daylights outta me.
Most recently, in the previous two or more years, I have developed a passion for gross and gory things. The Resident Evil movies haven't been nearly as good as I'd hoped, but they were okay.
The games, which are much more satisfiying, can be bought for most gaming consoles, including the DS - an undergradged GameBoy for those who didn't know.
Resident Evil is something you can pull down, wipe your saves, and play it again and again. It's just one of those games you rarely get sick off. After all, who doesn't enjoy a little violence? Blowing off a couple of zombies heads' is one sure way to cool down after a heated day.
There are a lot of different things that people first must do before they advance further into games. For instance, in the second game, Claire and Leon both have to run around the Police Department solving mysteries and picking up things before they can advance. Small jewels, for instance, to get a key to unlock a door.
After the games progressed, many new characters were brought in. In the second, you met Leon Scott Kennedy - a new police recruit; Claire Redfield - searching for her brother Chris Redfield, who was in the first one; Sherry Birkin - daughter of two scientists involved in research and creation of the G-Virius and; Ada Wong - a scrawny little spy sent in to retrieve the Anti-Virius.
Beside the characters, you get to meet a whole lot of different creatures that have been effected. The dogs are vicious, the spiders are amazingly, horrifyingly huge and the other creautes - well, they're simply downright evil.
The Over-All Plot;
Resident Evil started with a virual outreak, caused by the trusted company; Umbrella Corportation. During the first game you met S.T.A.R.S agents as they staggered through a zombie-riddled mansion, looking from clues, help and tips.
The games progressed as Umbrella's research did. It seemed Umbrella was consistently trying to kill human kind, as each time the virius seemed to spread faster than the last time.
Raccoon City was infected soon after the mansion incident, despite S.T.A.R.S members warning that Umbrella was behind it all. The S.T.A.R.S members vanished, leaving Leon and Claire to scout the police department upon arrival - being attacked by dogs, crows, zombies and other monsters.
And from there, it just got worse.
THE GOOD
Claire Redfield
Self confident and determinded, Claire is terribly innocent looking. She comes with survival instincts and a few talents; lock picking, for instance. She has a strong bond with her brother and is frighteningly concerned with his sudden disappearance.
Leon Kennedy
A rookie cop with a passion to serve and protect. He's thrown into a situation far from what he'd been trained to do, but he steps up to the task and refuses to flee. Though seemingly naive, he's far from it. Leon has a grasp on each situation even when others' cooperation isn't in his favor. All he wishes is to offer safety to those in his presence.
Ada Wong
Ada is complicated and tries hard to distance herself from others. She's far from interested in working as a team, or following any rules. She can be both manipulating and demanding at times. Ada is convinced that people are pressured to a cause given to them by others, and that she is no exception to this. When she has a job to do, she does it, veering away from everything that may cause a distraction. Deep inside her heart is a strong glare of femininity. This cloaked part of her feelings is well protected as Ada knows she easily can become attached to another lovingly.
Sherry Birkin
Sherry's an insecure twelve-year-old upon who Claire stumbles. Sherry has never truly known what it felt like to be loved, as both her parents spent their time working rather than being around her. She's well mannered and a smart girl, who spends her time helping adults to gain attention. She is often confused and unsure about when she ought to trust people.
THE BAD
Brian Irons
Chief of police and prior patient of psychiatric treatment. Brian is a deranged individual who engages in multiple hobbies that all have an odd theme about them. He has usually been one step ahead in knowledge about Umbrella's motives. This is cause he has secretly supported their cause until recently when a key facility of Umbrella's caused an outbreak in the city. Though Mr. Irons is sincerely upset about the spread of chaos throughout Raccoon City, the show he gives for drowning in his sorrows is only an act. He is letting the madness consume his soul and will take advantage of this opportunity to murder innocents.
Annette Birkin
A loyal wife, mother of Sherry, and scientist. Annette's greatest devotion is to her work. She exercises an unhealthy obsession with the G-Virus project and in the process is neglectful of her daughter. There is no saying that Annette doesn't love her daughter, but her priorities aren't always where they should be. Annette is unstably mixed with emotions of pain, confusion, and rage. Her world is tearing apart, and the weight of burden is Annette's motivation.
Mr. Death
The most mysterious figure yet. Responding to the code name Hunk. This agent is trained and qualified to do Umbrella's dirty work. His current objective is tough as usual, but he's prepared to do anything to meet his goal. Hunk must return with a sample of the G-virus and perhaps await an immediate assignment. Though not enough information is available on Mr. Death, it is known he has faced the impossible several times on behalf of Umbrella. For all that exist, the surprises probably don't end there either.
AND THE EVIL
William Birkin
Once a biochemist working for Umbrella. William worked in underground facilities under life threatening non-disclosure agreements. Supposedly confided with full cooperation, William was let on to Umbrella's plans to seize his virus and relieve him of his duties. He drastically tried to collect all samples of the virus and leave with his legacy. His efforts failed and he was shot down by operatives. These agents managed to commandeer a briefcase that had all containers of the virus, except for the one in William's hand. In an act of irrationality, William injected himself with the virus. It revitalized his cells and healed, but it also mutated him. Now reacting to instincts, he wanders around while attempting to plant embryos in those he crosses.
Mr. X
Gone through cycles of genetic enhancements and mutations, Mr. X has become Umbrella's bouncer. Also known as the Tyrant, this creature is the first successful biochemical soldier whom can operate to simple commands. Tyrant doesn't answer to anything other than Umbrella's orders. He also is unreasonably tough. There are no options for negotiating with him or even running. Exhaustion seems to never inflict this individual. The only thing darker than his presence, is the hollowness of his past.
OTHER RESIDENTS
Ben Bertolucci
A reporter on the verge of journalism fame, Ben is struggling to release the most important story of the decade. Ben has done a great job of gathering vital information and building a collection of valuable sources. He's aiming to expose Umbrella's plans and facility locations as soon as he learns the identities of all parties involved. Ben refuses to cooperate by leaking stories that could be used to compete against his breaking coverage. However, he is one of the few people who actually can be trusted.
Robert Kendo
Owner of a gun shop. Robert is a supplier to the causes of rebels and defenders alike. He has already put himself at risk in order to accommodate others. Yet proceeds to go about his generous ways.
Brad Vickers
The helicopter pilot who fled from danger in the first Resident Evil, leaving the team behind. Brad earned the name "chickenheart" and has developed a bit of insecurity from all this mocking. Brad was in town while the zombie outbreak occurred. Unable to escape this time, he is eventually overwhelmed by zombies and deeply bitten, thus becoming a zombie himself. Currently Brad travels aimlessly around Raccoon City wearing an easily identifiable orange vest jacket. Thriving among the undead as a puppet of Umbrella's bio-products.
Wounded Officer
The last standing survivor from a fleet of cops turned into zombies. This individual is aware of his inevitable outcome and won't let precious time be wasted on saving him. In the face of twisted fate, this man becomes nothing more than a poor soul torn by Umbrella's claws.
