Resident Evil: Beyond the Horror - Part 1

Infection spreads references on bio hazard toast.

Itchy. Tasty.

Bayonetta

Described as 'candy', consuming herb lollipops will recover one's vitality.
Going deeper, yellow herbs are unique to Res 4.
Collectively known as Eyes of the World, left oversees light and right oversees darkness.
Both are needed to resurrect end boss Jubileus.
So what's the deal with blue and red eyes?

Devil May Cry 3
Now we're getting somewhere.

Chief Mendez (Resident Evil 4)
In Code: Veronica, tiger statue (compared to original), served a very different purpose.


However.

Jewels have magically swapped positions.
Goof?

Who knows?

Just before fighting Gran Bruce in Viewtiful Joe, we're treated to this cut scene.
Apologies for the quality, but POV is that of Neptune in the old shark tank.
Time to turn shit up.

A standard special move by Chun-Li in Pocket Fighter (aka Super Gem Fighter), has thunder thighs immediately transform into Jill Valentine, complete with several signature weapons.



Explicit scenes of violence and gore.

Dino Crisis
'Coincidentally'...

Res 2
Dr. William* Kirk vs Annette Birkin (Res 2)


*Husband also shares same Christian name.

Here's Regina resisting the terrifying roar of T-Rex.
Expertly captured image surely inspired box art to sequel.
But down in the sewer at midnight.

Alligator's snap may have have got there first?
Haunting Ground

Let me tell you about Young Lorenzo.

Dude fell into a molten vat.
Survived. 
And understandably really pissed off, gives chase.
Same kinda thing with Mr. X.




I rest wise old case.

Oh yeah, for a split second, Proto Tyrant has the final say.

Resident Evil 0
Resident Evil 4
Few can resist the opportunity to rescue random dog from a bear trap so early on. 
Canine looks rather like Hewie, as seen with Fiona.
Now things get more hardcore than Henry.

Resident Evil 0
The game appears to have ended in checkmate.

Checking out clue is necessary to solve ubiquitous and tedious 'push and shove' puzzle.
Success uncovers the Book of Evil which contains the Black Wing.
Resident Evil (2002)
Teaser 'evolved' from examining same object.
Marvel vs. Capcom 3

Tricell Laboratory (Fate of Two Worlds and Ultimate)
Tyrant and multiple lickers are free to crawl around.
Wesker's ending
Alexia (Code: Veronica) and Lisa Trevor (Gamecube remake).
Hulk's ending
Chris informs that Nemesis spent a lot of time trying to kill Jill.
A more accurate description would be 'stalking'.

Infinite

Hyper combo Fatal Mutation has Nemesis-T Type morph into Resi Evil 3's final form.
This is much more geeky.

Winning pose sprouts tentacles.
Rather like Lisa Trevor on her period.
Good eh?

Two more before Nemesis says goodnight.

Many will associate Under the Skin as a Scarlett Johannson sci-fi.
Fair enough, but it's also a forgotten PS2 gem.
Check out who made the effort to pop by.
What does geezer look like in 2D?

Project X Zone and 2
Looks pretty damn shit hot to me.
Don't know about you guys, but I'm starving.

I could just murder a Jill Sandwich.

Revelations 2
Claire takes the piss out of Barry's piece of Shakespeare.
Dead Rising
There's more to shopping mall than just killing zombies.

Take Jill's Sandwiches for instance.
Another series ref is Chris' Fine Foods.
The Evil Within

Zombie sequence


 Refs bald headed bastard from original.


Sebastian Castellanos and Billy Cohen* (Res 0) were separated at birth.


*Rebecca's Report (one of sixteen files exclusive to N64 port of Res 2), spelled convict's surname as Kohen.

As we all should know, Res 0 was supposed to appear on N64, but was cancelled due to cartridge space limitations.

It itches... So itchy...
Okay, comment isn't 'tasty', but whiffs strongly of Keeper's Diary.
A few stage tributes.

Cannon Spike
Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble
And.

In Fur FightersResident Weevil appears to be spoofing Res 2 EU cover art.


You'd be a T-virus short of a Licker to miss Part 2.
