Resident Evil CODE: Veronica (Sega Dreamcast, 2000)

This is by far the best game for Dreamcast ever released!!! Now lets just get this straight. Resident Evil 4 is the best Resident Evil of all time, this game rivals RE:2 for the second best title. When this game first came out it was the longest Resident Evil to date...recently beaten out my RE4. This game was a major break from the series in that alot of the graphics weren't prerendered. The storyline is probably the most compelling of all the Resident Evil's. The story goes much deeper and you really get to "care" about what happens in the end. Load times are significantly decreased in comparison with past RE games due to the speed of the Dreamcast which ehlp the story flow better. Of course the music, sound effects and controls are all what you'd expect from Resident Evil. Although, Dreamcast players may find it difficult at first to adjust to the controls but it's a breeze to use after you've got it down. The replay value is pretty good, partly because of the story line and partly because you can unlock a bonus game by meeting certain qualifications when you beet the game. This game really upped the ante for the survival horror genre which Resident Evil created. You owe it to yourself to get this game, either on Dreamcast or the Playstation 2! It doesn't matter which, plus the price for the Dreamcast game is probably less.

I first played this game a number of years ago on the PS2, when it was ported over to the PS2's audience. I actually got my Dreamcast a few years after I got my PS2 in order to play a few unique games like Soul Calibur (at the time), Shenmue and Marvel v. Capcom 2.

From what I read, the Dreamcast version is actually tighter than the PS2 one. However, my experience on the PS2 was nothing short of amazing. I played through RE4 a number of times, and intend to get RE5 for PS3, but I remember the experience of Code Veronica like it was yesterday (although I honestly forgot most of the game). It has that classic feel of RE2 with a slightly more modern scheme close to, but not that close, to RE4. It is also the only one with Chris and Claire in the same game. Right there, that is enough for admission.

In anticipation of RE5, I picked this up on the Dreamcast to play in its original form. It will be give me some nice nostalgia of how games used to be made.

A great horror game classic for the Sega Dreamcast.It's fun suspense, thriller game.Searching for clues to advance while warding off monsters.Leaving you on edge.The story line is pretty good, & the graphics is still excellent.I love all the Resident Evil saga.The only thing I didn't like is the cinematic camera angle set up,"But",once you get the hang of it,it's a great game to play.

This game really revolutionized the way RE was played, in that it had outstanding 480p graphics, a panning camera view, and solid controls. The story is arguably the best story in the entire RE series, and spans much of the early history of the series. This is a necessary addition to anyone's RE repertoire of games.

This is my favorite Resident Evil to date, although Resident Evil 4 is probably tied with Code Veronica. This has great graphics and all the key elements of Resident Evil, all of the puzzles and zombies that you could ask for. In this version, you hold the R trigger to shoot just like all the other Resident Evil's but they added a great feature, tap the L trigger to switch targets! This is great when you have 2 or more zombies walking towards you...fire a couple rounds into one, tap the L trigger and fire a few into the next and so on. It is definitely one to get if you are a fan of Resident Evil. This game is also available on PS2.
