Resident Evil (video game): Difference between revisions

'''''[[Resident Evil (video game)|Resident Evil]]''''' -- sometimes called ''Resident Evil 1'' to denote its chronological status -- is the first installment in [[Capcom]]'s long-running [[Zombie Apocalypse]] [[Survival Horror]] series and the [[Trope Codifier]] and [[Trope Namer]] of the Survival Horror genre. Its Japanese title is '''''Biohazard''''', a reference to the storyline (which is centered around a [[The Virus|viral outbreak]]), but its Western release required a name change since "Biohazard" was too generic to be properly trademarked (a heavy metal band and an unrelated video game titled ''Bio Hazard Battle'' had already used it). ''RE1'' was first released for the [[PlayStation]] and [[Sega Saturn]], then had multiple alternate versions released afterwards. A remade version for the [[Game Cube]] (also known as the "[[Fan Nickname|REmake]]") -- which expanded certain plot points, added new areas, incorporated gameplay aspects of later ''Resident Evil'' games, and generally tightened continuity -- was released in 2002 (prior to ''Resident Evil 0's'' release). The original game (not the GameCube remake) is also available on the [[Nintendo DS]] as ''Resident Evil: Deadly Silence''. As well as including the original game, ''Deadly Silence'' has an enhanced mode that mixes things up for you (dropping enemy and item placements in new locations) as well as adding some touch-screen interaction.
