What games have I tried that are also movies? - Resident Evil

avatar

So my first great memory is playing Resident Evil at the local arcade before we went off to the movies in 2 player mode with my sister, throwing token after token into the machine because frankly I sucked at it but it was just so much fun. The world was immersive if scary and before I knew it an hour had passed and my family would head off to the movie and I often thought how cool a Resident Evil move would be ( I was not aware of anime back then so I only could dream of a live-action)

And then, of course, good old PlayStation brought out the games and the fun could be had at home, of course, lights on at all times. I was always drawn in by this underlying storyline of a corporation gone bad( or should I say always bad?) and wanted to learn more

And then finally in 2002 the movies came out and they are everything you want in a shoot em up, clearly defined bad guys, a hero with a power arc, deeper story lines slowly being unveiled and call back to key lore. These films are my guilty pleasure and I can't remember how often I have watched and rewatched them. What I love is they somehow managed to hold onto the same lead through 6 movies and Milla Jovovich is always going to be kickass. Yes, the quality has ebbed and flowed over the movies but I still think they do a great job of keeping the scenarios and stories fresh and always give you a little bit more lore and world-building.

Not sure where they will take it next but would love to see a reboot soon that can reexplore this crazy world once more.

Ah yes, RE was a really fun series. I also remember those classic machines in my local arcade when I was younger. Good stuff!
