Fantastic RE podcast. I've been grleaey anticipating it ever since you guys first talked about it, and part 1 definitely did not disappoint! A little bummed that you guys sort of breezed through the plots of 3, CVX, and 0 though. I would like to hear more opinions on the stories. :)Since you guys are doing the all encompassing RE podcast, are you planning on talking about the movies? Live action and CG?I love hearing about everyone's first experiences with the series. I remember the first time I saw a RE game. My cousin was really into RE, but because I hated scary games, I never payed em any attention. One day he came up to me, all excited, and said, Come here, you just HAVE to see this! . He dragged me into the other room in order to show me the opening cinematic of Code Veronica for the Dreamcast. I thought it was incredible, so naturally, I wanted him to show me the actual game. Unfortunately, he did. Needless the say, the game looked and played nothing like the opening cinematic, and the section that he showed me let's just say it didn't do the game any favors. I was turned off RE for life.Or so I thought.A few years later, that same cousin dragged me into his room to show me another RE game. He was, once again, really excited. I hate scary games, especially Resident Evil. I'm not interested. , I said. Just play it for a few minutes. Please? , he asked. It was the demo for Resident Evil 4 on the Gamecube. For the first time while playing a scary game, I wasn't scared. At least, not scared enough to stop playing. It was a different kind of fear than other horror games; a sort of exhilarated fear. I wanted to keep playing. I wanted to find out what happened next; I wanted to know who was behind the paper bag. (chainsaw guy) Plus, the game actually controlled well and looked amazing.From that moment on, I was turned on to RE for life and I've since gone back and played through some of the earlier REs. I still haven't played all of them yet, but I'm working on it. ;p
