This is the opening scene of Resident Evil 3 Nemesis, the third installment in the Resident Evil series; it's called Biohazard 3 Last Escape in Japan The details of this game are supplied below.

INTRODUCTION

Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, released in Japan as Biohazard 3: Last Escape (バイオハザード3 ラストエスケープ) is a survival horror video game and the third installment in the Resident Evil series developed and published by Capcom. This sequel was directed by Kazuhiro Aoyama and produced by Shinji Mikami.

The game was released for the Sony PlayStation, and was subsequently ported to the Dreamcast, Microsoft Windows and Nintendo GameCube. Resident Evil 3 was the last core title in the series to be released for the PlayStation. The game is also available for download on the Japanese PlayStation Network for use with both the PlayStation 3 and the PlayStation Portable.

SETTING

The first half of the game occurs 24 hours prior to Resident Evil 2 and the second half takes place two days after. The storyline expands upon the settings and events of the T-Virus outbreak in Raccoon City, and concludes with the fate of the city and its infected population.

GAMEPLAY

The player takes control of former STARS member Jill Valentine in her attempt to escape a ruined and zombie-infested Raccoon City. In a departure from the game's predecessors, the player cannot choose between two playable characters from the beginning. Instead, the game is played almost entirely as Jill, although there is a short section in which the player controls Carlos.

A new feature is the Nemesis, an experimental Tyrant programmed by Umbrella to hunt down and kill the remaining STARS members. Nemesis is very different from most enemies. He can run, use weapons, and has a dodge move, and is the first monster capable of pursuing the player from one area to the next. Nemesis is encountered throughout the game, in set-pieces, boss fights, and the occasional random encounter as the player explores the city. Even if defeated in combat, Nemesis will eventually get back up and continue pursuit.

The game also incorporates a new dodge move that allows the player to avoid or repel enemy attacks. The player can also use a new quick turn ability, spinning 180 degrees, allowing the player to escape or turn to face an enemy very quickly. Getting up or down staircases can now be freely done just by walking to them, and does not require the player to press the action button; enemies can now follow the player up or down stairs.

The game also features an Ammunition Creation System in which new ammunition can be created from gunpowder through the cartridge reloading tool, or by combining gunpowder with ammunition. Players can also shoot oil drums or pipes located in certain areas resulting in an explosion or a spray of steam that can kill nearby enemies. The game also incorporates a randomization feature in which some item and enemy placement, as well as certain puzzle solutions and cutscenes, change during gameplay.

At certain points in the game, the screen will turn white and the player will enter Live Selection Mode, in which they're prompted to choose between one of two possible actions, affecting the direction the story takes. There is only a limited amount of time to choose.

There is also an unlockable minigame titled "The Mercenaries - Operation: Mad Jackal". The player can choose from the three UBCS members that appear in the main game, with each character having a different set of items and weapons. There are also five alternate costumes for Jill and eight different character-specific epilogues that are unlocked sequentially after the player clears the game several times. Each epilogue reveals the fate of a major character from the first two games following the destruction of Raccoon City.

CHARACTERS

Jill Valentine; Ex-STARS trying to survive the viral outbreak.
Carlos Oliveira; UBCS Delta Platoon Company A member.
Mikhail Victor; Leader of the UBCS Delta Platoon.
Nicholai Ginovaef: UBCS Delta platoon Company B member.

RECEPTION

  • @loonie26

    Yup. Resident Evil is the Western title of the Japanese game Biohazard and still continues to be called that in Japan.

  • @DanieruShidebuteru But isn't there another game called Biohazard (and Biohazard 2)

  • @loonie26

    Nope, not that I know of, when it comes to video games, unless it's really old or antique. Do you have more info on that?
