I think if a government had secret human genetic experimentation it would be cool.

This random YouTuber is getting laid with random hot dudes, and is basically the worst person in existence. Why? Just watch the free video.

Red and yellow do go together.

But only if they were inadvertently?/deliberately? creating hideously conceived and barely recognizable abominations resembling little more than piles of skittering, howling limbs that appropriate other creatures flesh in order to reproduce. None of this Ozymandias crap involving perfected humans engineered to fulfil their minds, bodies and souls potential. More shuddering eyeball-and-teeth collecting carcass monsters please, governments of the world.

When close friends speak ill of close friends

they pass their abuse from ear to ear

in dying whispers -

even now, when prayers are no longer prayed.

What sounds like violent coughing

turns out to be laughter.

Having had a nice long conversation about the pros and cons of the Resident Evil franchise with an acquaintance today, I do like the particular "real world" setting-niche it occupies. The series isn't exactly above standard 90's corniness in regards to the cast and narrative, but there is something immeasurably cool about an alternative world where biological warfare has advanced to a state that the world's corporate power groups have nefarious paradigm-shifting agendas and the capacity to engineer horrific and unnatural monsters as weaponry.

 

Not to mention having BOWs gives more enemy variety then just different types of zombies all the time.

"I don't trust a man that doesn't have something strange going on about him, cause that means he's hiding it from you. If a man's wearing his pants on his head or if he says his words backwards from time to time, you know it's all laid out there for you. But if he's friendly to strangers and keeps his home spick-and-span, more often than not he's done something even his own ma couldn't forgive." -No-bark Noonan

Exactly! I know other zombie games will provide the occasional alternative zombie but by now they are all rather standardized, i,e. "the fat zombie" (and the explosive acidic sub-variety), "the fast zombie", "the dog zombie", etc. Resident Evil might be equally guilty of this, but I might argue that Resi was doing it first. I also love those terrifying macroviral zombies whose heads pop off to reveal an enormous centipede-like appendage, there's something undeniably awesome about a man-sized/bigger-than-a-man parasitic monster in which the human host is totally secondary and/or negligent in regards to the creature's survival. Or those zombies from RE5 whose upper bodies would tear open to reveal a disgustingly huge maw where half a person used to be. Those things were glorious.
