4. On a Global Scale
Each Resident Evil game so far has served to increase the scale of the initial zombie holocaust, just like any good zombie franchise should. Case in point: Romeros zombie saga. We begin in Night of the Living Dead in a house thats under siege; we progress to a shopping mall; next its an entire underground complex a bastion of humanity in a sea of undead; finally, its an entire city and at that point, we know the world is truly doomed. Resident Evil has followed this model to the letter, and in Resi 6, this undead threat is truly on a Global scale. Scope like that is why I personally play video games; to escape the fact that life isnt like this. Im not a hero, or a commando, or an agent. Im just a dude, sat in front of a computer screen. But when I play Resident Evil 6, that wont be the case. Ill be out there, saving the world like the supreme zombie destroying badass I yearn (perhaps too much) to be. And to be perfectly honest, I cant wait.
