Resident Evil 2
5 Games That Would Be Even Better With Multiplayer
Hold on, hold on; when I talk about bringing multiplayer into Resident Evil 2, I’m not talking about the main campaign, because that would surely ruin the single player experience that Capcom presents to us here.
Exploring the creepy abandoned Raccoon City Police Department by yourself with the colossal giant that is Mr. X following your every move would be all ruined if you brought another player into the mix. But, what if Resident Evil 2 was updated with a new multiplayer mode similar to Mercenaries mode that was present in RE 6 and RE 5?
You would get to choose your character from a huge selection of past Resident Evil characters; I’m talking Chris, Ada, Wesker, Jill, Sheva, Jake, and a couple more.
How Mercenaries mode works is that you and another person (you can play by yourself as well) enter a closed off area with a time limit. In that time frame, you have to kill as many enemies as you can, but you have to keep a combo up if you want to get a high score.
You can increase the initial time by smashing these colored crystals, but once you get all of those broken, that’s it. Using your time wisely, you must work together to kick some zombie butt and break your records.
Resident Evil 2 would surely benefit from a mode like this. Imagine how many people would pick up the game again after beating the campaign to check out the multiplayer? A lot of folks I bet.
