Editorial Reviews :
The first Dreamcast installment in the Resident Evil series, Code: Veronica is 'survival horror' at its finest. Unmatched in its ability to convey a persistent feeling of dread--and scare the pants off of you ever so often--this is one of those hard-to-put-down games that will keep you up for several nights on end.
The fourth chapter in the dark Resident Evil epic, Code: Veronica delves further into the machinations of the sinister Umbrella Corporation, once again pitting players against zombies and other horrifying mutations created by Umbrella's biotechnological viruses. Players begin the game as Claire Redfield, Resident Evil 2's college-girl-turned-zombie-killer, and later control Chris Redfield, the beefcake cop from the original game. There's more strategy required here than in the previous games, as Claire's actions have a direct impact on Chris. For example, playing a trigger-happy Claire that uses every health-restoring item in sight will call for some fancy footwork on the part of brother Chris.
While the basic game design here is largely unchanged from that of its PlayStation predecessors, Code: Veronica features many visual refinements--including exquisitely detailed 3-D character graphics, roaming camera viewpoints, and spectacular atmospheric and lighting effects--that greatly enhance the cinematic feel of the game. Equally high production values are evident in the game's excellent use of ambient and dynamic sound effects.
Upon completing Code: Veronica, players are rewarded with 'Battle Game,' a timed slaughterfest that can be played in third- or first-person point-of-view and has rewards all its own.
Buyer Reviews :
I am a HUGE fan of Resident Evil!!! Can't get enough of the stuff! From creepy distortions of realistic gruesome zombies to all of the wild monsters who lurk about, this sci-fi adventure is my kind of game! Although I have all of the other Resident Evils, this one tops it all by a mile - possibly my favorite game of all time! RE Code: Veronica is just an unspeakably excellent game! The graphics are obviously top notch; real gruesome and flabbergasting (not for the weak of heart), and packed with(what would a RE game be without it) tons of cinemas using the Dreamcast's full capacity. This two-disk terror will keep you obligated for weeks (at least it did for me)! Capcom really shows their ability here! I mean, this game's creepy atmospheres really give you that flesh-tingling feeling and the bosses are superb - very creative and have the best suspenseful music to go along with them! These bosses will have you frightened when facing them! Also, the storyline is one of the best storylines I have ever seen in a game - and it is delivered perfectly, a real shocker! Still, however, the controls are the same as the previous REs(awful for the beginner, but they're no sweat to pick up after a bit!). Seriously, folks, Capcom really spent a lot of time in making this - it is FULL of quality (you can tell as soon as the introduction cinema starts). As far as I'm concerned, this is worth six stars, OUTSTANDING GAME! Go out and BUY IT NOW!
