Got some friends together to play through both Files and it's been a blast so far. If you like the old Resident Evils but never had a chance to play Outbreak online or if you did play it online and want to play it again I recommend checking out the fan server on a PS2 emulator.

I run out of shotgun ammo at around 0:30. Watch as I spend the next 20 seconds going to get some more but pick up the wrong box of ammo as I fiddle with the inventory chefs-kiss

    Have such fond memories of this game, played it all the time as a kid, but was never able to get onto the internet due to the family being clueless about internet connections at the time. when we did get it connected, the servers had shut down.

    File 2 was my jam, specifically. I could speedrun the zoo and the hospital level with my eyes closed. absolutely hated the subway scenario.

    this is your reminder than Kevin, the cop character, has his AI preference to dislike one of the two black characters, and both black characters share a dislike of Kevin in return. Jim is the GOAT.

        You of 20 years ago had good taste, the game is dreadful offline. It's a testament to how easy it is to love trash as a kid though, that I fell in love with it despite of that. All they had to do was remake the RPD in 3D, and kid-me was happy.

        This post totally got me looking into that project and how I might be able to finally get that online experience in.

        And it's actually Mark that Kevin dislikes. Kevin's a great character mechanically, I just think it's funny that those Japanese devs, either intentionally or not, painted a very realistic picture of these characters relationships...

        Yoko's another great character for beginners. 8 inventory slots is a game changer in this game
