The whole thing about Resident Evil 3 not being the true RE3 is a popular misconception. Resident Evil 3 was always intended to be the 3rd entry. How Code:Veronica played into all this? Well, it had to do with the release of Resident Evil 2. The game was initially announced for the Playstation, and promised to be ported to other consoles as well, one of which was the Sega Saturn. However, when it came time to begin porting the title, Mikami and friends discovered that the Sega Saturn simply didn't have the power to handle the 2nd entry in the series. After trying several times to cut corners in order to get the game to work, they finally declared that they wouldn't be able to port it to the Saturn. Understandably, Sega Saturn owners were disappointed by the news, who had been waiting faithfully for their shot at the sequel (RE1 had been released on the console without issue). Shinji Mikami felt bad about leaving Sega fans out, so he promised to create a future RE title that would be a Sega platform exclusive. Fast forward a bit, and Resident Evil 3 and Code:Veronica were being developed at the same time. Resident Evil 3 was intended to continue cashing in on the blockbuster success of Resident Evil 2 on the Playstation, while Code:Veronica was always intended to be the side project that fulfilled Mikami's promise. It was eventually released to the Sega Dreamcast. Of course, Internet nonsense and hearsay at the time popularized the rumor that Code:Veronica was the "true" sequel and RE3 was only intended as the side project. This became exacerbated by the fact that Capcom later decided to port CV to the Playstation 2, along with some updated cutscenes and a few extra bells and whistles. Nowadays it hardly matters, as both entries are considered canon. Still, wanted to clear up that misconception.
Gun survivor and dead aim were first person perspective resident evil games.... And I think there was a third one where it was a dream sequence from code Veronica
The dream sequence one is Gun Survivor 2: Biohazard code: Veronica. Dead Aim was actually the fourth title of the Gun Survivor franchise. Gun Survivor: Biohazard Gun Survivor 2: Biohazard code: Veronica Gun Survivor 3: Dino Crisis Gun Survivor 4: Biohazard: Heroes Never Dies. But those games were retitled in America and Europe as, Resident Evil: Survivor Resident Evil: Survivor 2: code: Veronica Dino Stalker Resident Evil: Dead Aim
@@Shishizurui Welll.....4 was pretty good, tho I don't like the direction it sent the series in. Revelations was also not bad, but not the best either.
3:10. "Capcom's own series"... Dead Rising is one of Capcom's series. Also, there's another reference to the the line in RE Revelations 2, which I actually thought was used pretty cleverly
Can you believe that he got to the George Romero part and I literally said "damn, a resident evil movie would be cool" and completely forgot the already existing "movies"
@@TheWolf80764 the cgi movies are pretty decent though. Honestly the first and second movies weren't that bad, but once they got to all the clone bullshit I was starting to get annoyed. Like... they really went overboard with the clones. A bunch of Alice clones get made, a bunch of Alice clones die. Alice fights Umbrella clones only to end up killing Dr. Isaac clones until finally we reach the end where Alice turns out to be a clone herself. Like, wtf was Paul W.S. Anderson smoking?
I don't understand how people complain about Resident Evil 6 being too "action packed" but no one said a peep about Resident Evil 4 which was just as action packed if not more.
I’d always heard Romero’s Resident Evil script was well-liked by both Capcom (who had little direct involvement in the movies’ production) and Constantin Films, but it was ultimately rejected by Constantin over fears the amount of graphic violence would get the movie an NC-17 rating from the MPAA. Romero also wasn’t the first person to take a crack at adapting it, after Constantin acquired the film rights in 1997 they hired screenwriter Alan McElroy. By all accounts McElroy’s script was largely faithful to the first game’s story and characters, but it was rejected by Constantin after the second game came out because they thought a movie based so closely on the first game would come off as “boring.”
Actually Resident Evil 3 is my first RE game, because it's only one CD's, more like easier and better graphic than the other series at that time.. and because of Jill as the main character of course. And the game cover with Nemesis is just cool and terrifying..
It seems you've reiterated a long standing misconception while also adding more misinformation. RE3 with HUNK and Nemesis were two different projects. The original RE3 was planned for PS1 but moved to PS2, because of the delay Nemesis became 3. CODE:Veronica was always what it was.
Resident does not mean mansion or house, it simply refers to where you live. If you live in a cave, then the cave is your residence as you reside in it. A Residential district is not named as such because houses exist in it, but because that is the district that people 'live' in. The houses are simply a by product to meet that necessity. But, again, the term itself refers to the place you live, but, where you live or what you live in has no barring on the term itself. Thus when you use the term Resident Evil, you can literally translate it to "Evil lives here RE1 - Evil residents in a mansion RE2 and 3 - Evil residents in a city In CVX Evil lived on Rockfort Island. RE4 - Evil residents in a countryside town and a castle
Capcom says that resident evil nine will be back to the original characters I think the best course of action would be a two campaign(Jill and Chris)and (Leon and Claire) co-op game with third person over the shoulder respective
Dear James and Ben While was very entertained by your list on resi evil the intro bothered me basically because I’m a massive x box fan boy and am currently playing state of decay 2 I feel your not giving my current game the love it deserves please feel free to ignore the comment as it won’t stop me watching you guys I just want the record to show the state of decay series is a pretty good zombie survival/thing/game that I like. So their..
How come nobody ever talks about the Revelations series? I thought those games were excellent. Especially the second one. It felt like what RE6 should have been. Action heavy, sure, but with a renewed focus on creepy atmosphere and scares. Plus, we finally got to see what Claire and Barry have been up to over the years! I've sunk hours into just It's Raid mode alone. It's a blast, and probably in my top 3 Resi games ever. Fight me.
Bonus fact of the day.....is wrong. The name Resident Evil came about as a competition in the office for a cool name seeing as biohazard was out....not because the game was set in a residence
NIce video, these facts are really amzazing than the facts into spanish videos, without deprecated the spanish fact videos :) Keeping with the hard work, you got a new subscriptor.
Resident evil 2 remake came out on my wedding day.. so I brought it on my honeymoon .. Resident 3 remake came out... and my bloody son was born same day haha I dont have much luck with the release dates haha 🙃
Let's be honest. When it comes to zombie games the first thing that will come to your mind is Resident evil or House of the dead. They are the reason why zombie genre bloom
Thanks for the great job I Love this game and franchise so many memories it was a blast playing all the Resident Evil games and the movies may not please many but it's not that bad more power to you God bless
We all know he doesn't actually say "Jill sandwich" rather "Jibble Sandwich" right...? Not that it makes the games horrendous dialogue any better... It was fine for 10 year old me with just learning English as my 2nd language but now that English has basically become my first language i cant for the life of me take a single line of the game seriously without giggling... But I fail to see how "Jill Sandwich" became a thing... I guess whatever makes no sense becomes a thing online 🤣🤣
Romaros movie would of been terrible, watch ink ribbons video on it, he read the script and they would of been even further away from the games than Paul WS Anderson's movies
Yea Milla Jovovich versions ruined what resident evil games were about, human survival......try make herself n action star sleeping with director n oh she get mad like she owns right they rebooting it.....
I would love a re2 remake style game that is 2 player. Players can team up for some parts, split up for other parts, and coop puzzles. If done right, it could be really fun.
RE 4 undeniably best video game ever. RE 6 worst in series? No its the worst game ever (sh#t game for w#nkers!) Devil May Cry?!!? I know I f***ing cried when I paid 30 notes for this crock back in the day (for PS2)
Ben reads lines good. Real good.
Yes. Steal him for one of your lists?
Last channel I would've expected to see on here, but when I really think about it it makes all the sense in the world lol
Oh nice :D
Extra juicy bonus fact: Sweet Home is actually a movie licensed game.

Mr. Battle good to see others have done either homework and not believe all the misconceptions people put in “fact” videos 👍🏾

The dream sequence one is Gun Survivor 2: Biohazard code: Veronica. Dead Aim was actually the fourth title of the Gun Survivor franchise.

But those games were retitled in America and Europe as,
Resident Evil: Survivor
Resident Evil: Survivor 2: code: Veronica
Dino Stalker
Resident Evil: Dead Aim
Hmm i think this Ben guy would be real good at saying NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERDS.
Clair and leon look a lot more legit in that scene than the movies they produced. Shoulda let that guy make the movies.
Who is this "Ben" at the beginning of the video
I dunno but he better be careful Dicks going to get him if he's not careful.
He must have recorded this before Dick showed up.
Didnt he do videos on whatculture years bak
Tom Hilliam he is one of the announcers on watch Mojo
I’ve not played a Resi game since PlayStation One cos I’m a huge shitbag
Get in on the RE2make, it's balls to the wall amazing.
your only missing out on Code Veronica. everything past that is a fraud
@@Shishizurui Welll.....4 was pretty good, tho I don't like the direction it sent the series in. Revelations was also not bad, but not the best either.
The resi films are terrible, and I love them
Rory Keeson Right!!?
OMG same
The first 3 are good in my opinion the 1st one was my favorite but after that they just get crazier and the jump cuts give me a headache
Fuuuuuck the live actions films, but have y’all seen the animated ones? They’re SO good.
3:10. "Capcom's own series"... Dead Rising is one of Capcom's series. Also, there's another reference to the the line in RE Revelations 2, which I actually thought was used pretty cleverly
Should be “things everyone already knows”
Lol yea. This video was REALLY not for pre-existing fans.
@matt Tru shit asshole , more like things every true resident evil fan knows
@mattat least we agree on that little fact right there
@mattthas the way to go , I respect that , there's nothing wrong with that
I’m a pretty hardcore fan and even I didn’t know that Resident Evil 1 was supposed to be co-op.
Knew about the rest though.
Can you believe that he got to the George Romero part and I literally said "damn, a resident evil movie would be cool" and completely forgot the already existing "movies"
Thats because any real res fan knows them movies ain't really res evil 🤣🤣
@@TheWolf80764 the cgi movies are pretty decent though. Honestly the first and second movies weren't that bad, but once they got to all the clone bullshit I was starting to get annoyed.

What culture......you sound like that dude from whatculture!!
RE 5 may not be a great horror game, but it is a great co-op game!

Funny how the subtitles mention the "Jill sandwhich line" even though the video doesn't even contain the part XD
You said Hunk. .. not . ..HUNK!!
That be funny if they released a cook book based on all the characters favorite foods and having for Barry a recipe for a “Jill Valentine sandwich”
You earned my like on 'daily mail culling' haha true words
Could be wrong but the name may also be a reference to its origins as a remake of Sweet Home
Actually Resident Evil 3 is my first RE game, because it's only one CD's, more like easier and better graphic than the other series at that time.. and because of Jill as the main character of course.
And the game cover with Nemesis is just cool and terrifying..

RE3 with HUNK and Nemesis were two different projects. The original RE3 was planned for PS1 but moved to PS2, because of the delay Nemesis became 3. CODE:Veronica was always what it was.
Wrong res 3 was on the original PlayStation
Oh and hunk isn't a project he's an umbrella soldier
Very informative and interesting keep up the good work
Good list, but Romero's script did not stick closely to the games. Closer than Anderson, but not close.

RE1 - Evil residents in a mansion
RE2 and 3 - Evil residents in a city
In CVX Evil lived on Rockfort Island.
RE4 - Evil residents in a countryside town and a castle
The Brian Butterfield reference made me lol
Ben for CEO of Jill's Sandwich!
Fun Fact! Resident Evil 4 actually started out as a semi-fixed-camera game! Look up RE 3.5!!
Capcom says that resident evil nine will be back to the original characters I think the best course of action would be a two campaign(Jill and Chris)and (Leon and Claire) co-op game with third person over the shoulder respective

Sucks about daymare but those dude really did help out resident evil that’s so dope
Yay, a Ben ten.
I didnt know that re3 was already planned in July 2019
Bonus fact of the day.....is wrong. The name Resident Evil came about as a competition in the office for a cool name seeing as biohazard was out....not because the game was set in a residence
I like your accent mate, Imma tryna watch every vid you ever posted; perfect vids for mealtime leisure
I myself am the embodiment of creatively shaped normal meat.
Cant wait. Bring it on nemesis!

So did Ben leave whatculture?
So ladies, now you know where Ben will take you on your first date.
Is that a bad thing? Lol
Great list. Thanks!
I thought I was watching Ben from WatchMojo
Gee, I didn't know that.
Where can I find the background music ?
More like 10 things every resident evil fan knows
That wasn't Hannah Montanna...
I thought you were Ben from what culture?
Could they remake "Sweet Home?"
The names weren't changed for legal reasons at all
RE3 best RE
For me the best RE ever is Resident Evil 1 remake. Nothing will beat the original 1996 game for me and especially its near perfect 2002 remake.
Wolvie1984 the 2002 IS perfect.
@@Doc-Shockaloo1422 The best game in the franchise.
Why should companies ask? People are using things they don't own and Capcom do. Don't steal from people
Ah he said it, he said it
Damn Ben this where you ended up?
Thanks for the great job I Love this game and franchise so many memories it was a blast playing all the Resident Evil games and the movies may not please many but it's not that bad more power to you God bless
Thanks Ben from what culture 😀
Maaaaan does Shinji Mikami ever look fucked up!
Defs the type of mind that'd create this shit.

Fixed camera is why resident evil 2 remake fell short. Also it destroyed the originol story.
I would love a re2 remake style game that is 2 player. Players can team up for some parts, split up for other parts, and coop puzzles. If done right, it could be really fun.
Resident evil games are the best
I I was all excited I might learn something new about resident evil, disappointed if you are a fan how in the world do you not know all that
Change your title and put "might" coz i might know more things than what you know wew
Actually the RE3 with Hunk was separate from Nemesis and CV and was meant to be the true sequel
Dear Ben,
How many voice over takes to you usually take for these videos?
(....including shit takes for wankers. I miss that joke.)

RE 4 undeniably best video game ever. RE 6 worst in series? No its the worst game ever (sh#t game for w#nkers!) Devil May Cry?!!? I know I f***ing cried when I paid 30 notes for this crock back in the day (for PS2)
