Resident Evil 2 1.5 Prototype 15 Year Anniversary fan-made promo video

Celebrate 15 years of horror with this fan-made Resident Evil 2 (1.5) promo.

It really has been that long since we first crept down that mansion hallway, jumping out of our skins as a zombie dog shot through a window and snapped at our heels. A decade and a half of head shots, first aid sprays, and mastering unlocking later and here we are.

Capcom wants to remind us of the five Resident Evil titles they've got in store for us this year and beyond with the trailer above. Resident Evil: Mercenaries, Resident Evil: Revelations, the HD ports of Code Veronica X and Resident Evil 4, and the newly announced Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City.

Note: This video was created with archived video footage that has already been shown elsewhere. While searching for archived media, this video footage was discovered. The PlayStation Museum is not in possession of the game and only seeks to preserve the history of the title through screenshots and video. The PlayStation Museum web-resource will be re-launched on 9/9/2011. Be sure to check out Capcom's upcoming titles Resident Evil 4 HD and Resident Evil Code Veronica HD.

No zombies were hurt in the making of this video.

**Please respect Capcom's right not to pursue releasing the original Resident Evil 2, Megaman, or any other property. They are doing what they think is best and in hindsight, re-visiting RE 2 does not make business sense. The best we can do is support Capcom's software lineup and hope for the best. I for one will be buying the new Resident Evils in HD and suggest you do the same. Perhaps a RE movie based on Elza's character would have a better chance of happening. Has anyone contacted the director yet?

Why must Capcom keep on the torture with this lost piece of history? When will they include a playable version in some of those anniversary collections they always make?

[Borman18]

Thanks for posting this!

@wilk1001 32 bit!.

[glitchhunter09]

@wilk1001 Actually, it was 32-bit (unless you were playing on the N64) but it still looked good for the time.

[wilk1001]

Oh shit, i miss the old Resident evil, 64 bits, pre-renderized images, zombies...

[BroWhatever]

Come on lets be honest, the only reason people want to play this so bad is because it wasn't released, 2 was clearly a much better game and it's a good job they changed it. That said; zombies crawling underneath stuff = awesome

[prettyhater]

So unfair that the true fans of Resident evil cannot play this game,while Capcom continue destroying the saga and making money out of the name doing shitty action games...It's very,very sad.

[Ericboy0981]

If worked on ... Resident Evil 1.5 would have been way cooler than Resident Evil 2 and we all know it!

[xxEvilOrgasmxx]

capcom wont release this because the average gamer is a fps only moron. this generation is all obsessed with cod. these 'gamers' dont want suspense and story. Most people prefer playing online with 'friends' people they never even met.

[DKC1011]

I love resident evil. I love resident evil with a passion. I've been there through the crappy games, the great games and the downright amazing games. Resident Evil and Resident Evil 2 will always hold a place in my heart as my favourite games ever. I love you capcom. No matter what.

[otanerdark]

I think capcom dont care about this game at all. Beside they ill never release this game for one reason, afraid to this game be better than that we know today. Capcom dont think that, we only wanna play this game for review and curiosity. Please Capcom show the world how Bio 2 was before.

[luispadilla1968]

please release this game. Its so much better then anything out now. if this game is release resident evil will be way better then what its now i dont know why its so hard for capcom to release it all the fans like it. i think it will be a smart move
