Always nice to see you showcasing/playing or even talking about RE. Fucking kudos on mentioning Sweet Home, almost everytime I mention that game to friends or others they always have a puzzled look on their faces. I also love the fact you put RE themes as the backdrop for this video and heard you masterfully putting themes in at certain times like when you where unboxing RE6 and showed off the hoody and has the RE4 - Well Dressed Up - Boutique Theme XD. Well played Alpha and great showcase!
Your let's play of Resi 2 is one of my all time faves, I sincerely encourage you to think about finishing the playthrough of the original if there is a remote chance you might... !!
I do not, it's on my to get list since I never played the game nor the arcade version. Plus being a big fan of ligh gun games it's something I have to try out at some point
Hey Alpha, I was real glad when I found your channel because I'm a huge metal head as well and a huge gamer! I'd really think it'd be sick if you did a video where you showcased your room with all of the statues, collectibles, and briefly skimming over your game library. It'd be real awesome!
Holy crap man...I've been following you for a few months... loved your xbox rants, and now shit dude...someone that loves RE as much as me, and has my same opinions. Awesome music too BTW
Fucking awesome, man! I'm a HUGE Resident Evil fan. I really love your incorporation of RE music as well. Pure badassery, my friend. Enjoy the collection! I envy you haha
Resident Evil 4 is my personal favorite. It was the first one I played, and it actually made me want to go back and play the older titles. Made me wonder why I had never checked em out before.
I like those plain white end labels makes it easier to read and pick out a game from far away. Plus it would make organizing easier for me. I have to have all the end label colours grouped together and no mixing of colours allowed.
The last statement "Go back and play all of the old resident evil games. DO IT! DO IT NOW!" Held so much power so I listened and started playing RE2 today for a bit and had a blast but man it was so long ago I feel like I'm playing for the first time lol. Also I remember the remake on the gamecube...I'd love for them to do something similar to RE2
I like how Code Veronica is actually the real RE3. They had a deal with SOny that contractually obligated them to make 3 numbered RE games for Sony so they gave a secondary team the task ofmaking a side game (Nemesis) and in the end made it the number 3 entry. Meaning, Code Veronica was the one designed as the actual sequel and Nemesis was just a side-project to fulfill contractual obligations.
Can somebody explain why Resident Evil 6 gets so much hate? I thought it was a bad game but, after playing and beating, I realized that it was actually a good game and rather fun. I don't understand all the hate it gets.
Code Veronica was first RE I bought for PS2 (I'm more of a PC gamer) and I liked it a lot back then. It was a decent game, way better than what passes for RE these days.
You definitely should, I still say it's one of the very best versions besides the Deadly Silence on DS. If you play with Chris be mindful of the 2nd Tyrant the first time you fight in the lab, shit took me by surprise lol Neat little additions like that made that version really cool
Almost as big as my RE collection now! I have all the games for various systems, the Japanese imports, the old toys in box from the original release around RE1/RE2 and some other small various odds and ends.
Never knew that, but it certainly does make sense, Nemesis does very much feel like a side story with CV being the true continuation of Claire's adventures
I really want to make a video like this reviewing the series. I was 7 when my mum got given a sega saturn and resident evil, i played it and was instantly terrified but hooked for life. In resident evil 2 i couldnt figure out the controls so at the very start when you're in the flaming town and zombies are coming i would die every single time. I love this series, number 2 is my personal favourite but nemesis and the original are both incredible.
Nice to see the UK releases getting some US love! It's great you and SMS have a great mutual friendship shipping thing going on! I chose Code Veronica on Dreamcast as my first proper RE play through. So the difficultly just became my standards for the RE series afterwards. Going back it is pretty tough. But I love a challenge!
Tales from the Dark Side does have a creepy ass theme song. Man, thanks for reminding me of that show. I used to love watching that about 15 years ago. Looks like it is time to search the interweb for episodes!
Finished my Code Veronica X speedrun and unlocked the IRL earlier this week and I have to admit it was the hardest RE game I've ever played. Somehow the Zombies seem to behave differently from past games making it harder to just run past them. Aside from that its probably the best RE game for me. I love Code Veronica.
Man I love resident evil, been playing the very first one on my Vita these last two days, still play Resident Evil 2 constantly aswell doing that Extreme Battle Mode on PSN since we never got that over here in the UK originally... I really wish it'd find it's return to form. And for Outbreak File 3, Since I still play the other two but never went online with them, cheers for the nostalgia trip man
Oh and hey KUDOS for that save room music in the background! I love that shit! I was a MASSIVE fan of outbreak 1 and 2 and i remember the last days on both of them... To this day i play that offline but man... it's just not the same. EPIC co-op and i been posting on Silent Hill forums that they should do something similar with SH. I swear to god L4D borrowed some elements from outbreak, look at the subway level. First survival horror online game afaik. God damn i miss it!
The Boring Label on white background also is in asian games. It standardises the look at least so you can be on absolute clear what is the official title and where on the shelf it goes. Like Persona Series is just Persona, no SMT before them in spine. DDS and Nocturne ARE main line SMT and have it even in spine.
Lucky git. I know it's not as much as what I have, but to get all this on one go is just freaking awesome. I've spent a good few years collecting my Resi collection and still need a butt load more. Especially some of the US editions, like the RE4 steelbook and RE5 Collectors edition.
Hey, AlphaOmegaSin, the best thing about Arcana Heart 3, and Resident Evil 6 if you want to play it, being on PS3 is that the PS3 blu-ray games are region-free, with only a few exceptions. Just make sure you have a newer TV, HD recommended, because a PAL game doesn't like to be played on a NTSC tube-based TV, even if the console is region-free.
I agree with you dude... People must start watching reviews or read info about game before buy, because they clearly said almost every review that RE5 & RE6 isn't pure survival horror and that they include more action based gameplay.
There are two movies that came out in the 90s that Resident Evil 1 borrowed heavily from. Project: Metal Beast had many of it's sfx used in the game and Return of the living dead 3 had a great influence as well. Check out those films and you will love the Resident Evil inspiration. great vid btw!
I bought Resident Evil 2 for PlayStation for $3 at a flea market in the summer of 2011. It was such a bargain and it came in the original fat case. Such a good find.
i started with resident evil 3 and the i became a fan of the series but just for the money i cant buy new consoles and new games... but one day that dream can be true... you are awesome dude
There was a Resident Evil Sale on the PS store in April. I got Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3, I finally got Resident Evil 4, and I got Code Veronica all fot under $40. I gotta say, so far I am liking the series so far. The only Resident Evil game I had played prior to the RE sale was REmake. I was too scared to even finish it XD.
There was made this way in order to been able to contain big multi language instruction manual. Today, also, having these cases in perfect condition add much value to the game and looks amazing in any collector's shelf :)
An graphically remade version of Outbreak 1 and 2 re-released nowadays would be pretty dang cool and could potentially sell very well... that of course if they included online/local co-op.
That RE 4 cover does look awesome. Totally reminded me of Tales from the Dark Side and then you said it. It would be amazing if the negative of the cover was the inside cover.
Kind of random but there are two things I would like to see in the video games market. A rise in the making and marketing of survival horror games, and a rise in games with humor. I like games that make me laugh: Conker's bad fur day,naughty bear, duke nukem forevor. Just wish there was more variety and not just all shooters.
also something I'm going to get for my resident evil collection very soon is the ashford relief and dual gold airsoft lugers that go with it to hang up in my place.
I just noticed the little Mannequin off to the lower left. I see you doodle as well. I gave mine a little Suit from a Ken doll I found at Goodwill and painted his face white.
Ebay is a safe bet, because PS2 games are dirt cheap right now. I would say this is a great time to build your collection, because the price will only go up from here on out.
Bad PAL conversion issues (slower gameplay and black bars) pop up with any type of television. But I approve your point: SD games (any region) needs a (good) old CRT, preferably PAL with SCART-RGB input.
Cool vid Alpha! So happy that you have some PAL games. I'm from Europe so yeah the labels really suck as they are all the same. You should make a video reviewing your cat :D And maybe some of your metal shirt or gaming related shirt. The PAL PS1 games are awesome at least but they do tend to break just like the Dreamcast PAL cases.
Hey Omega, GREAT Grab!!! i just score myself a huge lot of Resident Evil Lot for Game cube--- RE-Zero, RE-1, RE-2, RE-Code Veronica, RE-3 Nemesis, RE-4 and Xbox360 RE-5, RE-6 Been a huge fan and watch your videos every week-- hate the Gamestop stickers too and your Video about that cracks me up--- too bad what's happening to Capcom--- Keep up the GREAT work man, Awesome stuff
Also Resident Evil 3 is one of my favorite Resident Evil games besides the first two of course and I forgot to mention in my last post that I made a video about a resident evil 3 Nemesis figurine set that my friend bought me from PAX East it looks really awesome check it out...
I would be extremely happy with a new Outbreak. The amount of people online at the time of the originals was not nearly as big. Keep the same mechanics and everything just modern graphics. I would go crazy over it.
I thought that was all of Europe on not just the German cover. The UK had the exact same cover and so did a lot of other European countries. Same it got censored for you guys, the cover is awesome.
I just hope they keep their word by going back to the franchises' roots, although I would still like to see co-op (optional with no AI if you're on your own) somehow and still have it more scary than action
Resident evil remake is my favorite re and one of my favorite games it capture horror so well and graphics that rivalled some 360 games and re4 cover over here is awesome
I bet you're excited for The Evil Within this year. I know I am.
Yeeees
Yeah its gonna be great cant wait
Luv the JAP/PAL cover of the RE2! It's just amazing
Resident Evil 2 is my fave for sure
and you can reply it 4 times
Always nice to see you showcasing/playing or even talking about RE.

Well played Alpha and great showcase!
What did you beat Resident Evil Revelations on ur cardboard wii u system LOL XD HAHAHA
Great video. Watched about 10 of your videos over the past week . Keep up the great work!!
RE5 was wayyyy better than RE6, I hated that game. The only RE game that I had no desire to finish, I hated 6!
***** their*
***** true
Yahelono They're, a mix of they and are.
Yahelono they're*
i dont get why every one hates on number 6 it was hella dope
Indeed I do, got both 1 and 2. Honestly been wanting to play through the first game quite a bit lately
Your let's play of Resi 2 is one of my all time faves, I sincerely encourage you to think about finishing the playthrough of the original if there is a remote chance you might... !!
I do not, it's on my to get list since I never played the game nor the arcade version. Plus being a big fan of ligh gun games it's something I have to try out at some point
Absolutely, got quite a few games I wanna run through, just gotta pick the order. RE2, RE3, Parasite Eve, and a shit ton of newer games
I love this resident evil music in the background, brings back some great gaming memories
Hey Alpha, I was real glad when I found your channel because I'm a huge metal head as well and a huge gamer! I'd really think it'd be sick if you did a video where you showcased your room with all of the statues, collectibles, and briefly skimming over your game library. It'd be real awesome!
Holy crap man...I've been following you for a few months... loved your xbox rants, and now shit dude...someone that loves RE as much as me, and has my same opinions. Awesome music too BTW
Fucking awesome, man! I'm a HUGE Resident Evil fan. I really love your incorporation of RE music as well. Pure badassery, my friend. Enjoy the collection! I envy you haha
Resident Evil 4 is my personal favorite. It was the first one I played, and it actually made me want to go back and play the older titles. Made me wonder why I had never checked em out before.
Biggest difference would be Resident Evil Survivor, it has Guncon support. The rest essentially are the same exact thing
I like those plain white end labels makes it easier to read and pick out a game from far away. Plus it would make organizing easier for me. I have to have all the end label colours grouped together and no mixing of colours allowed.
The last statement "Go back and play all of the old resident evil games. DO IT! DO IT NOW!" Held so much power so I listened and started playing RE2 today for a bit and had a blast but man it was so long ago I feel like I'm playing for the first time lol.
Also I remember the remake on the gamecube...I'd love for them to do something similar to RE2
YES re 3 save room theme in the background i love the save room songs of the classic resident evil games
I like how Code Veronica is actually the real RE3. They had a deal with SOny that contractually obligated them to make 3 numbered RE games for Sony so they gave a secondary team the task ofmaking a side game (Nemesis) and in the end made it the number 3 entry. Meaning, Code Veronica was the one designed as the actual sequel and Nemesis was just a side-project to fulfill contractual obligations.
I just played through the first 3 Resident Evils last month and played the DS version of the 1st one a week ago. Love this series!
He needs to do more Lets Plays. His are by far the best and most entertaining.
I saw AOS at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo about 8 years back and had him sign my copies of RE2 and RE3
Can somebody explain why Resident Evil 6 gets so much hate? I thought it was a bad game but, after playing and beating, I realized that it was actually a good game and rather fun. I don't understand all the hate it gets.
Cornelius Snow Because its to over the top and not like the others that are good
Loving that Resident Evil theme in the background
Code Veronica was first RE I bought for PS2 (I'm more of a PC gamer) and I liked it a lot back then. It was a decent game, way better than what passes for RE these days.
You definitely should, I still say it's one of the very best versions besides the Deadly Silence on DS. If you play with Chris be mindful of the 2nd Tyrant the first time you fight in the lab, shit took me by surprise lol Neat little additions like that made that version really cool
Awesome pickups episode. And your Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance Mark of Mastery Edition is looking really nice on that shelf.
Just scored a lot on ebay of zero , REmake and 4 for cube. Can't wait to start this series.
Almost as big as my RE collection now!
I have all the games for various systems, the Japanese imports, the old toys in box from the original release around RE1/RE2 and some other small various odds and ends.
Loved the resident evil tracks in the backround, was a nice touch :)
i can understand that the big selling points for me aside playing as umbrella were vector, spectre, lone wolf and HUNK they were all badass looking
"PAL, short for Phase Alternating Line, is a colour encoding system for analogue television." From Wikipedia.
Never knew that, but it certainly does make sense, Nemesis does very much feel like a side story with CV being the true continuation of Claire's adventures
oh my god is that the Resident Evil 3 soundtrack playing in the background! It's my personal fav of all the RE soundtracks.
I really want to make a video like this reviewing the series. I was 7 when my mum got given a sega saturn and resident evil, i played it and was instantly terrified but hooked for life. In resident evil 2 i couldnt figure out the controls so at the very start when you're in the flaming town and zombies are coming i would die every single time.

So the difficultly just became my standards for the RE series afterwards. Going back it is pretty tough. But I love a challenge!
Just wanted to say man I enjoy watching your videos you make good key points on certain subjects that should be addressed
Tales from the Dark Side does have a creepy ass theme song. Man, thanks for reminding me of that show. I used to love watching that about 15 years ago. Looks like it is time to search the interweb for episodes!
The older ones were quite scary. I agree with you about SH. The older ones.
Finished my Code Veronica X speedrun and unlocked the IRL earlier this week and I have to admit it was the hardest RE game I've ever played. Somehow the Zombies seem to behave differently from past games making it harder to just run past them. Aside from that its probably the best RE game for me. I love Code Veronica.

I really wish it'd find it's return to form. And for Outbreak File 3, Since I still play the other two but never went online with them, cheers for the nostalgia trip man
I highly enjoy the subtle Resident Evil soundtrack playing in the background! :)
as a fellow resident evil collector i just wanna say awsome video and looking forward to more!
Oh and hey KUDOS for that save room music in the background! I love that shit! I was a MASSIVE fan of outbreak 1 and 2 and i remember the last days on both of them... To this day i play that offline but man... it's just not the same. EPIC co-op and i been posting on Silent Hill forums that they should do something similar with SH.

It's the soundtrack from Resident Evil 3 Nemesis

Rez borrowed alot from alone in the dark.
11:58 Ah man, the Hall theme is so beautifully chilling.
I bought Resident Evil 2 for PlayStation for $3 at a flea market in the summer of 2011. It was such a bargain and it came in the original fat case. Such a good find.
It was very cool that your friend packed a extra PS one game player with all the other R E
games and book. Peace.
Makes me wanna go back through all the Resident Evil games just because RE5, and RE6 doesn't do justice to when survivor horror was a actual success.
Resident Evil 2 will always be my favorite RE game ever.
Your collection is lookin better than now brother
i started with resident evil 3 and the i became a fan of the series but just for the money i cant buy new consoles and new games... but one day that dream can be true... you are awesome dude
On Resi 2 If you clear one disc and load the save from the other disc you get a different storyline. I missed that as it made the game longer.
There was a Resident Evil Sale on the PS store in April. I got Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3, I finally got Resident Evil 4, and I got Code Veronica all fot under $40. I gotta say, so far I am liking the series so far. The only Resident Evil game I had played prior to the RE sale was REmake. I was too scared to even finish it XD.

That's super cool, dude! Great collection!

That RE 4 cover does look awesome. Totally reminded me of Tales from the Dark Side and then you said it. It would be amazing if the negative of the cover was the inside cover.
13:23 that place was a great place for not only games but anime too, i really miss media play
Kind of random but there are two things I would like to see in the video games market. A rise in the making and marketing of survival horror games, and a rise in games with humor. I like games that make me laugh: Conker's bad fur day,naughty bear, duke nukem forevor. Just wish there was more variety and not just all shooters.

I just noticed the little Mannequin off to the lower left. I see you doodle as well. I gave mine a little Suit from a Ken doll I found at Goodwill and painted his face white.
If I remember the gun thing with survivor was due to the fact that the it was aimed at getting players to use the light gun.
I've only played RE 5 and 6. And that's all I own...I should probably play and get all the others...yeah I'm gonna do that! Awesome pickups man!
Yeah ever since it was pointed out when the logo was first unveiled it's pretty much burnt into my brain for good now lol
Ebay is a safe bet, because PS2 games are dirt cheap right now. I would say this is a great time to build your collection, because the price will only go up from here on out.
Always loved resi 3 :) I learned to play the music box puzzle from the clocktower on guitar
Bad PAL conversion issues (slower gameplay and black bars) pop up with any type of television. But I approve your point: SD games (any region) needs a (good) old CRT, preferably PAL with SCART-RGB input.
Like how you're playing the old school RE music in the background. Still creepy after all these years.
A few you still need (that i can think of) are the Directors Cut of Res 1 (PS1) Survivor 2 (PS2) and the G-Con game Dead Aim (PS2)
Honestly, it has it's moments. I don't want to spoil anything for anyone who hasn't played.
Would love a full playthrough Resident Evil 2! OMG! Great Haul too!
I like how the PAL version has Playstation at the bottom as opposed to the side of the case.
alpha omegasin please do a full lets play of all the classic GOOD resident evils. resident evil 2 and 3 would be awesome
You are lucky to have found someone to trade with like that. With the damn price of shipping now it's tough to justify shipping overseas.
all I'm missing to complete my series of resident evil are resident evil 2 and 3 for the Gamecube. So hard to find a good price that isn't over $40 :/
I really love the german 1st print version cover of RE2. It's so cool and different.
Sadly it later was censored and removed from the market...
Cool vid Alpha! So happy that you have some PAL games. I'm from Europe so yeah the labels really suck as they are all the same. You should make a video reviewing your cat :D And maybe some of your metal shirt or gaming related shirt. The PAL PS1 games are awesome at least but they do tend to break just like the Dreamcast PAL cases.
Yeah, Lost in Nightmares was my favorite. After I finished playing it, I would play it again.
Hey Omega, GREAT Grab!!! i just score myself a huge lot of Resident Evil Lot for Game cube--- RE-Zero, RE-1, RE-2, RE-Code Veronica, RE-3 Nemesis, RE-4 and Xbox360 RE-5, RE-6
Been a huge fan and watch your videos every week-- hate the Gamestop stickers too and your Video about that cracks me up--- too bad what's happening to Capcom--- Keep up the GREAT work man, Awesome stuff
Hey bud! Great resi haul! Sean is a top dude. Excellent vid. All the best jay.
He forgot to send you resident evil remake for the GameCube. One of the best remade games ever I would say.
thanks man for this epic video the background sounds is pretty awesome for RE !
cheers
Also Resident Evil 3 is one of my favorite Resident Evil games besides the first two of course and I forgot to mention in my last post that I made a video about a resident evil 3 Nemesis figurine set that my friend bought me from PAX East it looks really awesome check it out...
Reminds me that i should replay RE 2 (my favorite) sometime this year...and maybe a slew of PS1 games...man those days were the shit.
I've had this layout since May 1st lol
I would be extremely happy with a new Outbreak. The amount of people online at the time of the originals was not nearly as big. Keep the same mechanics and everything just modern graphics. I would go crazy over it.
I thought that was all of Europe on not just the German cover. The UK had the exact same cover and so did a lot of other European countries. Same it got censored for you guys, the cover is awesome.
Awesome RE pickups, and I like your Hellsing shirt.
I just hope they keep their word by going back to the franchises' roots, although I would still like to see co-op (optional with no AI if you're on your own) somehow and still have it more scary than action
Resident evil remake is my favorite re and one of my favorite games it capture horror so well and graphics that rivalled some 360 games and re4 cover over here is awesome
You could look on Amazon and check under Used.
my dad played resident evil 4 on the gamecube, thats my first res game and i love the older 1's
