Trivia:

According to the Resident Evil novel series, book 3 (which depicts the events of Resident Evil/Biohazard 2), the story progression is Leon: Game A and Claire: Game B, are the paths taken in the story. This is determined by Claire constant encounters with Mr. X in the book, where Leon never faces him.

Goofs:

Factual errors: At the near end of the A scenario in the final boss fight, the word "ELEVATER" on the floor is misspelled. It's suppose to have an "O-R" at the end of the word.

Quotes:

Claire: You lose, big guy!
[blows Mr. X up with a rocket launcher]

The best Resident Evil game, and one of the best games over-all.

This game is amazing. There are 2 different versions of the game, one where you are Leo and one where you are Claire, meaning that to fully complete the game you have to beat it twice. The graphics in this game, while not great, are good. This is one of the only games I have ever played that made me nervous or scared at times. You never know when a zombie or other creature might just pop out of nowhere and make you jump. Once you die in the game, it is game over, you have to start from the beginning, so try to get as many health items as you can so when you are dying you can get your health back, and more importantly SAVE THE GAME AS MUCH AS YOU CAN, meaning whenever you see a type writer, go up to it and save the game. Because if you don't, believe me, you will regret it. The story in the game is original and exciting. How would you like to be stuck in a building full of flesh-eating zombies, giant crocodiles, vicious dogs, and plenty of strange creatures? The game is exciting at all times, as long as you continue to do new things and go to new places rather than going back to places you have already been. Resident Evil 2 is challenging, and will take quite a long time to complete, but is fun and exciting the whole way through, and is one of the best video games ever made. Play it if you haven't.
