[Multi-platform] Resident Evil Series

Featured MGs: Mutant Women and Zombies. (However Resident Evil games 4-6 has a LOT of mods, and with a little know-how, you can change the character models for playable MG characters. That's also including the PC ports.)


[Taken from wikipedia]

Resident Evil, known in Japan as Biohazard (バイオハザード Baiohazādo?), is a media franchise owned by the video game company Capcom. It was created by Shinji Mikami as a survival horror game series that was initiated with the eponymous PlayStation title Resident Evil in 1996. Since then, the game series has branched out to include action games, and has sold 50 million units as of 30 June 2012.[1] The franchise has been expanded to comic books, novels and novelizations, sound dramas, live-action and computer-generated feature films, and a variety of collectibles, such as action figures and strategy guides.[2]

History

The survival horror video game Resident Evil made its debut on the PlayStation in 1996, and was later ported to the Sega Saturn. It was a critical and commercial success,[3] leading to the production of two sequels, Resident Evil 2 in 1998 and Resident Evil 3: Nemesis in 1999, both for the PlayStation. A port of Resident Evil 2 was released for the Nintendo 64. In addition, ports of all three were released for Windows. The fourth game in the series, Resident Evil Code: Veronica, was developed for the Sega Dreamcast and released in 2000, followed by ports of 2 and 3. Resident Evil Code: Veronica was later re-released for Dreamcast in Japan in an updated form as Code: Veronica Complete, which included slight changes, many of which revolved around story cutscenes. This updated version was later ported to PlayStation 2 and Nintendo GameCube under the title Code: Veronica X.


Despite earlier announcements that the next game in the series would be released for the PlayStation 2, which resulted in the creation of an unrelated game titled Devil May Cry, series' creator and producer Shinji Mikami decided to make the series exclusively for the Nintendo GameCube.[4] The next three games in the series—a remake of the original Resident Evil and the prequel Resident Evil Zero, both released in 2002, as well as Resident Evil 4—were all released initially as GameCube exclusives. Resident Evil 4 was later released for Windows, PS2 and Wii. In addition, the GameCube received ports of the previous Resident Evil sequels. Despite this exclusivity agreement between Capcom and Nintendo, Capcom released several Resident Evil titles for the PS2 that were not considered direct sequels.

A trilogy of GunCon-compatible light gun games known as the Gun Survivor series featured first person game play. The first, Resident Evil Survivor, was released in 2000 for the PlayStation and PC, but received mediocre reviews.[5] The subsequent games, Resident Evil Survivor 2 Code: Veronica and Resident Evil: Dead Aim, fared somewhat better.[6] Dead Aim is actually the fourth Gun Survivor game in Japan, with Gun Survivor 3 being the Dino Crisis spin-off Dino Stalker. In a similar vein, the Chronicles series features first person game play, albeit on an on-rails path. Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles was released in 2007 for the Wii, with a follow up, Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles released in 2009.

Resident Evil Outbreak is an online game for the PS2, released in 2003, depicting a series of episodic storylines in Raccoon City set during the same time period as Resident Evil 2 and 3. It was the first in the series and the first survival horror title to feature cooperative gameplay and online multiplayer support.[7][8] It was followed by a sequel, Resident Evil Outbreak File #2. Raccoon City is a fictional metropolis located in the fictitious Arklay Mountains of North America that succumbed to the deadly T-Virus outbreak and was consequently destroyed via a nuclear missile attack issued by the United States government. The town served a critical junction for the series' progression as one of the main catalysts to Umbrella's downfall as well as the entry point for some of the series' most notable characters.

Resident Evil Gaiden is an action-adventure game for the Game Boy Color featuring an RPG-style combat system. There have also been several downloadable mobile games based on the Resident Evil series in Japan. Some of these mobile games have been released in North America and Europe through T-Mobile.

In March 2011, Capcom revealed the third-person shooter Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, which is developed by Slant Six Games for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows and released in March 2012. A survival horror game for the Nintendo 3DS, Resident Evil: Revelations, was released in February 2012.[9]

HD Collections released HD ports of Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil: Code Veronica X, Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, and Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles.

At the Sony press conference during the E3 2009 trade show, it was announced that a game titled Resident Evil Portable would be released for the PlayStation Portable.[10] Resident Evil 5 producer Jun Takeuchi said that he considered a "completely new system" for Resident Evil 6, but later ruled out his involvement with the game.[11][12] In March 2009, co-producer Masachika Kawata stated that the new installment was not decided upon, but that it could take Capcom four to eight years to develop.[13] Sources familiar with the project indicated that the series will soon return to its roots and be "brutally scary."[14]

Feel free to discuss about any of the games, and if you find or made any MG mods, please share it with us.

To help illustrate the possibility, here are some mods that people made for this game. And these are all fully playable characters, both usable on the minigame they have and story mode.

Apparently this series is really good ,but I have never played any of its games. I DID see all of the movies though, I liked the first two movies the most. I never played many undead shooting games since I always get hooked on the more sci fi or alien kinds.

Some of those mods look pretty good! Especially the Elf and Fate ones. I still can't find a good reason to start playing this series though.

[dethwiperer]

One of my favorite series, I've had 6 pre-ordered for quite sometime now and I personally can't wait for it! Leon and Chris in the same game sounds delightful.

I don't really like the controls of the older ones whatever reason and I forget them quickly, though after playing them for a little while they become second nature again.

The Elf is from the "Hunted: The Demon's Forge". The Third person RPG

[Rezeed]

Thanks for the info. I just fixed the info.

Hopefully, we can find see more MG mods for the game. I can see some people having a lot of fun playing as their favorite MG in the original story modes they have in RE4.(Normal, Assignment Ada, and Separate Ways.)

I am also sure that RE5's Coop System could also be fun to see with Two MGs on the screen at the same time taking down various enemies.

[Rezeed]

Found more MG mods. Well, I have some non-MG mods, but I thought they were well worth at least showing the images. Just ask me via PM how I got them if you want details on how I found them.

If you have better screenshots for them. Feel free to share.

Yes Frank West is from Dead Rising. I really like RE but never played any of the games.

Hmm if there was a Mystia, Tali, or Miku mod I may actually try it out. Of course I want a harpy, but I won't ever hope on that since I KNOW no one is skilled enough to design one (at least mod wise).

We really do need a monstergirl computer game.

That Miku Mod is a real mod. Incidentally, they can be played on any version of the game. The only thing about the mod is, the ones compatible with story mod will swap back to leon or whoever is the main character is at the moment. Just for the sake of plot, and cutscenes are pre-rendered movies. There are people making an english one(even though it doesn't matter the region since the mods work in all regions.)

By the way, that uriel mod is actually a winged woman. An Angel no less.

Here's a close of what she looks like:





From what I found out, it's apparently, easier to work with existing 3D models. By essence, they do work with the models from other 3D games, like team fortress, Skyrim, and various other 3D games. You just do some minor edits for attack animations(guns, knives, and melee based), and they can even replace a "costumed" mode for story mode or the alternative story modes.(Even the Mercenaries Minigame) However, I think you mayneed blender/Milkshape and another program to get it inserted onto the game.

To help illustrate my point, here's video that shows a Mod using a team fortress character. Apparently,(like some of the mods I mentioned already), they ripped the models straight from the game of origin.

Hi monsters !
I'm a huge fan of the resident evil series.
As a fan, I collected kind of every games thait aired in my nintendo consoles.
- Resident Evil Zero (Game Cube and Wii editions)
- Resident Evil Rebirth (Game Cube edition)
- Resident Evil II (Game Cube edition, cost me an eyeball)
- Resident Evil III (Game Cube edition)
- Resident Evil: Code Veronica X (Game Cube edition)
- Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles (Wii edition)
- Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles (Wii edition)
- Resident Evil 4 (Game Cube and Wii editions)
- Resident Evil Revelations (Wii U edition)

Don't have the Resident Evil 5 and 6 but... well, it's not really a Survival Horror and I don't really regret this.
When I'll have a good PC for gamers, I'll buy the PC versions and add them to my collection.

My favorite opus is Resident Evil: Code Veronica X. A really good story, crossdressing and nice monsters like Bendersnatch and horrible Sandworm XD
But, since I played the Resident Evil Revelations one on Wii U, I felt in love ! The return of the licence to Survival Horror, a freaky atmosphere around an abandonned ship full of monsters and stuff... My, I loved that !

And you, what's your favorite opus ?
Do you collect them too ?
Favorite moments or easter eggs ?

*Thread moved to proper section*

For me, only played resident Evil 4, outbreak file 2 a bit of Zero and a little bit of that crappy dead aim game.

[PAZ]

For the record, slightly bit of Resident Evil 1,2 and large portion of RE nemesis and finished both 4 and 5

Also I enjoyed the PS1 Survival and Outbreak file 1/2

Personally, I love playing the Resident Evil remade on wii
