[Sephiroth]

I did the whole series last October the bild for RE5 I did 2 Resident Evil games a month it was fun like the only thing I did not do was the Resident Evil Survivor but I replaced that with the Outbreak series but good luck on yours Bot have fun.

I for one cannot wait to see this, especially the Survivor portion considering your opinions on that game (though you're taking the Vincent path).

You're not daunted by the coming release of RE5:AE? I hate to say you should wait for that, but I suppose it's a better time towards Christmas.

List has been finalised.

Playthrough will likely be broadcast over JustinTV.com unless any of you have a better alternative. Starts December 23rd. Final time will be decided closer to that date.

RE2 4th Survivor still takes precendence. Covers more of the sewer and is generally harder. I despise the Fourth Survivor in UC.

I think capcom messed this up because I always was under the impression that Hunk escaped the city before the events of RE 3 took place. It just seems unbelieveable that he was knocked out for a week just laying there. UC have made it that he escapes on the 30th-1st but I still don't like it.

Meh, Darkside Chronicles has shown that the sewer is pretty expansive compared to what we only saw in RE2. He could've been wandering for a while following his skirmish with Birkin.

HUNK does not just wander about in the sewers!

HUNK does not just wander about in the sewers!

Yes we spent a good few weeks pondering about this on Project Umbrella. An amusing comic strip came out of it but beyond that, we are still at a loss as to what HUNK was doing during that time. Haha.

What HUNK does in the sewers in a zombie infested city is HUNK's business!

The Fourth Survivor from The Umbrella Chronicles simply makes more sense than the one from RE2. However, it still doesn't make the most sense.

First off, HUNK running through the entire western wing of the RPD is ridiculous - there's no reason that the ladder in the main hall wouldn't be lowered by the time he reached the station. Secondly, Leon and Claire unlocked all of the previously locked doors, so HUNK should have just taken the outdoor staircase in the southeast corner of the precinct to reach the helipad after emerging from the basement.

But most importantly of all, why wouldn't HUNK use the secondary path in the sewers to reach the precinct via Irons' secret pathway? It would take him almost directly to the heliport with minimal resistance, and I have trouble believing that "bad-ass, always-plans-ahead" HUNK simply wasn't aware of the path's presence...

This is why I always thought that he left the city before Clarie, Leon or Jill got to the police station. Originally I pretty sure that the 4th survivor was not really supposed to be written into the canon and that is why there are all the discrepancies. Don't forget that if he left after Claire and Leon then the door to the helipad would be blocked from when Mr. X came threw the ceiling. Also where he is laying to start his mission, he is not seen when Leon meets Ada there.

I think your Outbreak scenarios in the wrong order.

Aaaaand GO!

You make some great points here.
