It's an alright game

Firstly, this game is quite messed up. It's supposed to be a team survival game, but they always make you fight alone. Think about it realistically, if you were surrounded by that many monsters, would you want to be alone, like how Steve leaves Claire all the time and goes off on his own. I think the game should allow you to be with at least another person, if not more, to fight with, of course, that's what Resident Evil Outbreak is for (thankfully). The graphics are amazing, but the mid-game graphics are not at all that great. The only time you see the great graphics is at the beginning movie and the middle of the game, and the very end. You can't even see the fist fight between Chris and Wesker in the awsome graphics, kinda lame. I mean, if they ARE capable of making such graphics, then they should just use them for ALL the cut scenes. One thing I like about Resident Evil, is how things pop out from no where and spook you, it's kinda cool, especially when you've beat the game, and you're sitting with your friend that hasn't played it yet, and you see him jump from one of those scenes, it's quite hilarious. The camera and the controls are terrible. You have to pevite(or how ever you spell that word), and then run, makes it hard to reach your destination. If only all the Resident Evil games would have cooperative playing, then that would make the game much more fun. If you're a fan of the series, then knock yourself out, cause this is the best Resident Evil game to ever come out on any Playstation Console.

Good game, Bad conversion

....

Take on the zombies and Umbrella Corporation for the first time in true 3D. Code Veronica no longer uses pre-rendered backdrops like the other games in the series did, everything is drawn in polygons and is fully interactive.

The whole game oozes class, from the stunning FMV sequences all the way down to little details like the bullet cases flying out of your pistol as you take down another one of the amazingly deatiled zombies.

The storyline is your typical horror game affair. Claire Redfield is thrown in a prison cell after the evil Umbrella Corporation caught her snooping around their secret facility looking for information on her lost brother Chris. She escapes the prison thanks to a wounded guard handing her the keys to her cell. You find that you are stuck on an island in the middle of nowhere... and to make matters worse, the island is infested with zombies! You have to escape the island, Stop Umbrella Corporation's sick experiments with the dead, and find your brother.

Sound's difficult huh? Well, unfortunately the puzzles in the game are VERY easy, and the game is short. You'll complete the game in a few days, but you'll enjoy every minute of them. Once you do complete the game, you get a few bonus weapons and an all new Battle Mode, which allows you to play the game in a first person perspective....

O.K. , but lacking what the othes had

This game was alright, except for for thing. I didn't like the feel of the game. It has excellent graphics, cool story, and some nice weapons. The thing I didn't like was the idea of taking it to such a low brow area. Like in RE:Survivor, it takes place on an island, which kind of takes the fun out of it. I think you should be able to explore more of Racoon City, throw in some new enemys. This game just bored me. In this game, you just kill zombies, which is the jist of the game. But, unlike RE 1, 2, and 3, it felt obscure. When I started playing it, I just thought it was like a remake of Survivor, which ...[stunk] really bad. Next time, make the game a little more appealing. Or maybe it's just me.

Just think about it....I only speak the truth!!!!!!!

In my opinion the game is not what you expected. The game is a director's cut from Sega's DC console and the folks at CAPCOM used the same format. It lacks 3D detail ( and for... you may want your pennies worth ). The story is a fresh start from the PSOne games but as I said before it lacks the 3D detail that you would see in a well made PS2 game ( don't get me wrong but compare the game with one of it's kind like Silent Hill 2, Onimusha or even the GAME CUBE version of RE now called BIOHAZARD ). THINK ABOUT IT!!!!!

Cool!!!!

I have played all the Resident Evil series and this is by far the best one. I love how the combat knife is actually a formidable weapon in this game- in fact, you would have almost no chance of surviving the game without it!! As another reviewer said, there is a decrease in the gore, but I think that's okay (especially when my character dies!-In Resident Evil 2 the zombies chomp you until one of your veins explodes and sends blood flying everywhere)
This is a must have for any serious video gamer's collection

the play is really intersting and close to reality, however it starts to get annoying towards the end.It seems impossible to kill the monsters.Yet,the reward is excellent when you finish it!!

Resident entertainment

Why buy 'Resident evil code: veronica x'?
put simply - not for the squemish. As it gleefully proclaims before you even get to the title screen, the game "contains scenes of extreme violence and gore" .There is a lot of blood. When you play you keep on discovering more and more gory bits, heads exploding in gore and blood as you kick desparately at a zombie clinging on to your leg, a zombie ex-anatomist ripping entrails out of a corpse with its teeth, before turning on you...

Violence and gore aside, it really is a very enjoyable game that you can really get into.
The characters develop through the game personality-wise and you learn more about them. This makes the game that much more entertaining because you really can empathize and (I know it sounds sad) feel for some of the characters.
The problem with it, as with nearly every other game by Capcom is that as it has no difficulty levels some parts of the game can become controller-throwingly hard!
Obviously though, with practice comes experience, and with experience you get that blood-stained route further.

Definately worth getting!
Buy it, then sell it because you can't get past the first bit!

maybe it was'nt for me

To start off with i got it for 9.99 in games exchange.I played resident evil before, so i thought id try this out.It is more of a finding secrets puzzle game,the puzzles and looking for key's is what got me a bit annoyed.I more of a fast action survival horror fan eg devil may cry ,onimusha[a bit different].The graphics were good without a doubt but it was more different from resident evil 3 which had more action on.If you run out of ammo for a gun, then you are basically done the only option is to run.And if the zombies get you it will be annoying .But it still gives you creeps i did'nt get aroun to finishing it off cuz i got board.
