Resident Evil

The original horror game that gave birth to the survival horror genre is reborn on the GameCube and pushes the boundaries for graphics, gameplay and atmosphere to staggering new heights.

If you thought you knew Resident Evil, think again...

For years a secluded mansion and its grounds have been the site of top-secret biotechnic experiments funded by a respected corporation. A while back the weekly laboratory reports started to become increasingly vague and now they have stopped completely. Recent gory attacks near the mansion have lead to rumours of unnatural canines on the prowl. Something has gone terribly wrong.

Two Special Tactics and Rescue Squad teams are sent to investigate these strange and gruesome developments. Bravo Team are the first to mobilise and they disappear almost immediately. Alpha Team follows, urgently driven towards the mansion to find out what happened to Bravo Team and see if they figure out what the hell is going on.

* Play as either Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine and unravel the mystery of a biogenetics experiment gone wrong and expose the corrupt Umbrella organisation.
* Stunningly designed characters that employ motion captured animations that allow for unprecedented human-like fluidity of movement.
* Completely recreated cut scenes that add tension and suspense to the game.
* New 'emergency escape' system - instead of just attacking with a gun, attack the enemies using items found.
* New stage - the beginning of the game now finds you lost in the forests surrounding the mansion. Will you be able to find your way to where the original game began?
* Truly outstanding environments - the game breathes life. You will not have seen anything like this before. (less)
