The mercenary guy is almost certainly Alex Wesker, the guy who Spencer sent to find the secret of immortality. Apparently Alex did manage to find it, then betrayed Spencer and dropped of the radar.coolerthanice21 said:I wonder if the "mercenary" guy and the blonde girl with him are Steve Burnside and Sherry Birkin. She looks like she'd be about the right age.
The thing was, it really wasn't ever that good. Back in the old days it managed to fall into a really lucky niche in the market, and was outplayed by Silent Hill at every conceivable turn. The story was contrived and rather dull.Proverbial Jon said:This game does look bloody intense and who knows, it might actually be playable as well. I guess I'm just mourning the loss of yet another good survival horror franchise. First Silent Hill fell. Now Resident Evil has become a run and gun zombie shooter.
No hope left indeed...
To be honest, I was being quite generous when I said it was a "good" survival horror franchise. They were competant games and they brought the scares well enough, but it wasn't my favourite franchise, simply because jump scares don't get me as well as Silnet Hill's own brand of fatal blood pressure inducing tension.JoesshittyOs said:The thing was, it really wasn't ever that good.

While I'm with you in the "it should at least try to be scary", this is ultimately a much better choice.
And speaking of Silent Hill, have you seen the new one? It actually looks pretty good.
