As I sit here and think back as to what really to say about this game I come to the realisation that this game is SO bad and such a insult to the RE series that it goes from pathetic to funny! This game is like The Room or the Ed Wood of RE games with terrible coding, writing and even voice acting that makes the first game sound great!

In this game you play as some guy who, after having a fight with someone in a helicopter, crashes down and ends up suffering from amnesia, but recovering quickly enough to start killing approaching zombies who all drop a form of loot. Due to the way this game is designed, there are no "Puzzles" to figure out beyond merely grab item, use item in the obvious place and then get a key to advance to the next area.

The translation is pretty terribly translated, giving me flashbacks to Castlevania 2, even though I played that game long after this! They seem to mix up what they mean in their terms and I am both confused and concerned about what the notes were alluding to. First they said about how they had imported boys for their experiments, but then they also said they took them to the nightclub in town to give them a sense of freedom and I guessed they were trying to say teenager/young adult from the age of one or two of them, but the translation makes it sound like they're significantly younger!

It's difficult to give an exact breakdown of the story as it changes depending on the choices you make at the beginning and I ended up fighting off Umbrella tactical agents, but you do get a different situation depending on your choices and where you go.

I use of assets from the first two RE games is very insulting in this game since in many cases they don't work, like AVGN experienced with the spiders or they transform Mr. X, the terrifying stalking horror in the second game, into a slightly bullet-spongy enemy who dies after you shoot him enough times, but there's many more where he came from!

It's so bad that it has to be seen and laughed at to be believed! The last game on the PS1, making that great system not go out with a bang but a wet fart.
