I do not know who on earth came up with the idea to make this sequel to a game that no one liked originally, but this shouldn't be a surprise that this didn't end well.

Now arguably that is a bit mean, it has it's fans in regards to laughing at it! Those on Retroachievements even make the effort to make achievements on there to get whilst playing on Retroarch!

Not only does this game insult RE fans by, once again, attempting to make a light-gun version of RE and failing, but they also took a game that's beloved by many people (Code Veronica) and then decided to butcher it when putting the assets into this game, including adding bosses from that game, creating new ones and adding a time-limit to each stage!

You need to find the key and get out before the time limit is up because, if you don't, a familiar-looking pod drops into the level somewhere and Nemesis arrived! Yes, Nemesis. The totally destroy BOW from the third game returns in this bastardisation of Code Veronica and even then, when he lands it isn't a big deal as he still needs to chase you down through the level, all the way from the beginning before he's able to catch up to you so the time limit is just a kind of soft-limit.

Beyond that, it's a fairly dull light-gun game/third person hybrid and you can even play a Steve if you want! The winy redhead!

I want to know what the hell were Capcom thinking when they were putting this together? I'm guessing to make quick money, but did they not know how bad the previous survivor game was? They probably hoped to get into arcade machines and get bottomless passive income from that.

I suggest you stay away from this game. It isn't worth your time and it's very short anyway so it would also waste your time too!
