What's new in RE: Code Veronica X? (PS2)

They changed his haircut? o_O

I'm asking cause I got RE Apocalypse on DVD yesterday and that made me want to get the game again. I really liked it on Dreamcast.
 
Wesker CutScenes (stolen from gamefaqs):

Near the begining.

Claire returns to Alfred's palace. As she puts her hands on
the front door, someone behind her says her name. She asks
who he is, and he claims he is a "ghost from the past, come
back to haunt your brother Chris." Claire recognizes the man
as Wesker. Wesker says that it's good to see her; he attacked
the island, but wasn't expecting Claire to be there. Now
Chris will definitely show up, he says with a smile. Claire
says that she doesn't know what went on between Wesker and
Chris, but Chris isn't the kind of person Wesker seems to
think he is. Wesker's response is to grab Claire by the
throat and toss her about twenty feet away.

[He walks up to the struggling-to-move Claire and cruelly
puts one foot on her shoulder. It will pain Chris to see
Claire die, Wesker says. However, he's interrupted by a
radio message. Whoever it is apparently has new information,
and Wesker winds up walking away. Apparently, Claire may
still be of use to him, Wesker says. He looks back at
Claire, and his eyes glow red through his sunglasses.
Claire gasps, and Wesker, his body blurring with sudden
speed, jumps over the patio railing into darkness.]

Near the end.

[Or, in CVX:

[Wesker recovers in midair from Alexia's uppercut, landing on
his feet. Alexia confidently moves in for the kill, slinging
flaming ichor from her hands. Wesker, trying desperately to
avoid her, runs away from her... and *up the wall*. As fire
crawls up the wall behind him and breaks out on his clothing,
Wesker springs off the wall and delivers a powerful right
cross to Alexia's jaw.

[Alexia spins, dazed, and throws another spray of fire in
Wesker's direction. Wesker is standing in front of Chris,
so both men have to get out of the way. As they stand,
Wesker and Chris notice each other. Wesker grins faintly,
and says, "Chris, as one of my best men, I want you to
handle this." He then breaks for the door. Alexia is too
slow, and her offhand attempt to incinerate Wesker misses.
Chris tries to get away, as with the other version of
this scene, but he's a little too late.]

Final Boss

[Chris staggers down the staircase from the laboratory to find
Wesker... with Claire. He has Claire in a headlock, and tosses
her ahead of him through a hole in the wall. Chris gives chase,
following Wesker down a long, zombie-infested hallway. Chris
dodges the zombies, shoulder-blocking one out of his way, and
emerges in an underground seaport.

[Wesker is standing by a docked submarine with Claire. He tells
Chris that the T-Veronica virus turned out to be nothing, but
Wesker's revenge will be so much sweeter. Chris tells Wesker
to let Claire go, and Wesker tosses her across the room.

[Wesker tells Chris and Claire that he'd originally come to get
Alexia, but now that it's over with, he can get on to his other
job: revenge. Chris says that Alexia is gone, and Wesker's
response is that it doesn't really matter; now, he has Steve's
body. Steve still has enough of the "T-Alexia" virus in him to
work with. "Maybe he'll come back from the dead one day," Wesker
says, "like I did, to see your sister."

[Claire nearly attacks Wesker, but Chris holds her back and tells
her to go. It's his job to finish this. Claire tells Chris to
remember his promise, and leaves.

[Chris and Wesker face each other as Claire runs off. Chris tells
Wesker to "say hello to my teammates, who you killed!" Wesker
takes off his sunglasses and says, "I don't know where you get
your confidence, Chris." He drops them to the floor and walks
towards Chris, who hits him with an iron bar. Wesker takes one
shot across the face, blocks the second with his arm--bending
the bar--and hits Chris in the face. Chris goes sprawling, and
Wesker presses his advantage. He may not be human any longer,
Wesker says, but his newfound power more than makes up for it.
A final uppercut sends a dazed Chris sprawling.

[As Wesker prepares to finish Chris off, Chris notices a load
of steel beams, suspended overhead on a pulley. Wesker leaps
into the air for a final, killing blow, but Chris manages to
get out of the way. He hits a lever and drops the steel beams
on Wesker, who looks up just in time to intercept the first
I-beam with his face. Wesker gets buried underneath the pile
of girders. Unfortunately, it isn't enough.

[Wesker gets up, visibly staggering ("Nice try."), and Chris,
likewise, climbs back to his feet. As they prepare to start
the fight again, one of the smaller explosions suddenly takes
out a nearby bit of machinery, and a gout of flame separates
them. A massive pipe falls between them, and Wesker takes the
worst of it by far. Holding his horribly burned face, Wesker
promises Chris that the next time they meet, he'll kill Chris.
"Next time," Chris says, and runs out of the room. Wesker
stands amidst the wreckage, and laughs.]

Veronica was terrific. One of my fave DC games.

But it was too easy.

I remember saving all my explosive / acid rounds ect for the epic final boss enounter that never came....when game was over and mutant Alexa was destroyed I had enough weapons to invade the solar system.
 
I really dug the game's pacing. The first disc only had one boss while the second had a ton. Plus, the secondary protagonist didn't make an appearance till well into disc 2. They held off on giving you the shotgun till pretty late in the game, which is unusual for a RE title. They also introduced new villains gradually, keeping things interesting.
 
The first boss of the game was ironically the hardest.

Society: I won't report you to the author, since I think the author's a douchebag. Just don't go quoting any of my (crappy) work. :lol
 
Society said:
I ended many SS runs on that bastard. :(

CVXFREAK, It is not like I did not credit him. :P

I know, I wasn't being totally serious. :D

It's the bastards who paraphrase without crediting who need to be destroyed. :P
