The Pros, The Cons: Resident Evil 1.5(The Prototype of RE2)

[abbatoo]

If you have seen the last known build of 1.5 you would be hard pressed to see the difference between 1.5 Leon and final Leon. And another thing is that the characters can find body armours (3 different types known), also clothes become ripped/blooded as the characters received damage and gradually got worse as they received more and more damage. I'd say that's pretty detailed.

I have seen all the videos and pictures of 1.5 that are publicly available, but I still feel that it lacks a certain level of polish that was present in the final version. Then again, we are talking about a game that was 80% complete at best, so comparing it to a finished product isn't really fair in the first place.
I agree about the body armours and ripped clothing, though (added it to pros).

There were more Zombie types in 1.5 than there were in final, including several female Zombie types whereas final only had the one.

I was referring to the skins, not the 3d models.
Here are the types I remember seeing (not very accurate):

- 1-2(?) thin cop skins
- 2-3 fat cop skins (if we count the different hair colours)
- 1 male civilian skin
- 1 female civilian skin
- 1 scientist skin

The shapes and sizes were indeed more varied than in the final version, though.
That's why RE3 is my favourite when it comes to zombies, it got the best of both worlds.

BTW, where did you get that info about the different female zombie types?
