Resident Evil/Biohazard 2 (PC) Re-released!

All three Resident Evil games hit the crapper when XP came out. Then again a lot of games quit working properly when Xp came out.

Resident Evil 2 can be played on XP SP2 if you saved it to it's own directory and enabled the windows 98 compatibility mode. Resident Evil 1 seems to be working for some while others the install screen crashes which appears to be a compatibility issue as well. Resident Evil 3 had problems to begin with but it does work on Xp.. the characters just look like they're under water and their faces float around the frame even when they're not moving..

So yeah.. the games did need to be re-released and tweaked.. I'm just hoping whatever they did to get them to work right on Xp carries over to Vista.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

When they ported it originally they optimized the characters somewhat but they totally ignored the background and the items you interact with. So they look choppy in other words. I'm assuming those could be cleaned up a tad in a re-release. However I have no idea how these re-releases look. The screenshots are tiny and its hard to see any kind of improvement.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
