Brush Up on Your Infected: Before you buy Resident Evil 5

For a quick rundown of some Resident Evil history Raccoon City housed the Umbrella Corperation which made a form of virus called the T-Virus which turned humans into well "zombies" or the "infected". A team was sent in to figure out what happened. The team was Jill Valentine, Chris Redfield, Albert Wesker and Barry Burton. Albert Wesker supposebly dies during the final fight with the tyrant and so does Barry. Leaving Jill and Chris to escape. This was the first resident evil game set 24 hours before Resident Evil 2. Than Claire Redfield and Leon S. Kennedy both go to Raccon City. Racoon city has been taken over because of Umbrella President William Birkin who spilt the T-Virus into the sewers which turned rats into infected which later made the whole city infected.

Claire and Leon look for her brother. They find out Chris Redifeld went to Europe to chase after the Umbrella company. They later find the lab where the T-Virus and the G-Virus were produced. They escape from Racoon city after dealing with a infected William Birkin. Which ends the Resident Evil. Than Resident evil 3 occurs where you follow Jill Valentine and her team on there escape from Racoon City with her team she later meets with. She fights the Nemesis project which is a huge warrior and escapes only with one soldier named Carlos Oliveira. The U.S. government than decides to hit Racoon city with a nuclear missile and end the violence and infections for good. Other games like Resident Evil: Code Veronica and Resident Evil: Zero take place in between certain games.
Later on Leon S. Kennedy returns to be sent on a mission to a rural city in Europe to save the presidents daughter who was kidnapped by a cult. The cult used a parasite to control there people and attack Leon during his game. But this game featured no "Zombies" at all. But it did reveal that former member of Chris Redfield's group STARS Albert Wesker was still alive and that he was trying to rebuild the Umbrella corperation. Then a year later Leon is working for the TerraSave organization and Claire Redfield is aiding a family meet once again, not since Resident Evil 2, at an airport that is than found out to be infected. They fight to escape the airport and find out that the Wilpharma company has the G-Virus and other viruses. This cause panic and leads to the fall of Wilpharma by Leon and Claire. Soon after the airport is blown up, a new company comes to town called Tricell. The company first introduced in Resident Evil 5. This all leads up to Chris Redifield landing in Africa while working for the BSAA. He meets up with Sheva Alomar to fight bioterrorism but Chris has more in mind. He is searching for Jill Valentine who was presumed dead in the beginning of the game. This is where I leave you to play Resident Evil 5 and close the chapter for yourself.

There Is No F.E.A.R. On This SmackDown



F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin is the sequel to F.E.A.R obvisouly. F.E.A.R. 2 picks up where the original left off--with a bang. The city is in tatters, and as Michael Becket of Delta Force, it is up to you and your squadmates to capture the elusive Genevieve Aristide, president of the nefarious Armacham Technology Corporation. Too much description would risk spoiling the game's few surprises which I would rather not talk about, you just have to play the dam game.Your weapons of survival aren't spectacular, but they're varied enough to make shooting a pleasure, even when the flow of time takes its normal path. The two shotguns are beautiful together; they feel weighty and dispatch most enemies with a single bloody blast to the head. The hammerhead is another delight, filling your foes with neon barbs and potentially affixing them to the wall behind. However, tigger fingered newbies should consider playing at higher difficulty levels, given that F.E.A.R. 2 feels way easier than the first installment. The AI can offer occasional challenges, particularly in levels featuring running in and out of rooms in which human enemies will flank you, use cover, and tumble to the side should they find themselves gazing down the barrel of your automatic shotgun. They will also tip over furniture or other objects and use them as cover. However, enemy behavior is inconsistent; a table-tipping guard may not follow through, running away from his improvised cover rather than ducking behind it. Some enemies will blindly fire from behind low obstacles but may also do so when in plain view. The best enemnies are those not bond by rules of phsyics, such as ethereal foes that take shape as you enter reflex time. And in some cases, your enemies are so visually elusive that you're better off finding a way out of the dark environs that spawn them. The GoodS low-motion shootouts are good, gory fun Mech sequences provide welcome variety Some cool, spooky imagery. The Bad Story offers little mystery or suspense cliched random scares and level design Multiplayer is drab and disappointing. Should you buy this? The Smackdown king says: Rent it first if you enjoy it get it but you defintiely should not just go out and buy this game.
