Resident Evil (2002)

The game begins with the Bravo team flying overhead, en route to investigate a series of murders.

Something happens, and the helicopter crashes.

Everyone survives, but when they all start searching, they find an overturned military transport truck with nothing but corpses inside.

Rebecca Chambers, the youngest member of S.T.A.R.S.'s Alpha Team, goes to investigate the Umbrella Company Luxury Train, which has mysteriously stalled in the middle of the woods.

You now take control of Rebecca, and your journey begins.

In addition to the series' traditional survival horror gameplay, the game introduces what it calls a "partner zapping" system, which allows you to switch between Rebecca and Billy at any time.

This feature must be used at times, as the game requires both characters to work together to solve some puzzles.

New to the game are a bunch of terrifying enemies, like the mutant centipede, new areas to explore, and the ability to drop items on the ground instead of having to find an item box.

Unlike the original GameCube release, all enhanced ports later on feature an additional Wesker Mode which gets unlocked after completing the game.

That mode gives both characters a new appearance, a red-eye controlled look for Rebecca and Wesker replacing Billy with his own unique set of special abilities.

Both skins seem to have been based on Wesker and Jill from Resident Evil 5 , which came after the GameCube release of this game.

Resident Evil (2002) for PlayStation 3 is currently worth €25.64 loose, €12.31 complete in box, and €25.92 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Resident Evil (2002) has only a handful of tracked market sales, suggesting relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation 3 titles.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Resident Evil (2002), loose is €25.64 and CIB is €12.31 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of Resident Evil (2002) is currently worth €25.64 loose, versus €18.04 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
