\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ve played a lot of Resident Evil<\/a>. I’ve beaten almost every major entry barring one light-gun game, the Outbreak<\/b> entries, Code Veronica<\/b> and Resident Evil 3<\/b>. Most are old and outdated now and I don’t expect I’ll ever go back to play them. But after Resident Evil 2’s<\/b> spectacular remake<\/a>, I was very excited about the third entry, having never tried it. COVID-19 threw a wrench into 2020’s plans, but $25 in PSN credit and a half-off sale made this a no-brainer purchase. <\/p>\n

I’m only an hour or two in and with tempered expectations, I look forward to another fun jaunt into Raccoon City’s nonsensical world of zombie slaying and corrupt Umbrella employees. I thought I’d go through my history of the series, more for my own chronicling than anyone else’s enjoyment. Here are some quick snaps before the decades-long retrospective begins. Psyched to start this game.<\/p>\n
