Welcome to Gaia! ::

Disclaimer: I love RE, but I've never played any of the RE games; that's a situation I intend to remedy, however. I have watched all the movies and a good chunk of the game cutscenes. I also have at least a vague grasp of what each game is about. Oh, and Wesker is (predictably) my favorite character. Onward!

It struck me how much RE and Hellsing have in common. Let me list a few of the similarities, and then you, dear reader, feel free to post some you've noticed.



Goes without saying. RE zombies/undead usually aren't controlled by anyone, but they still transmit their zombieness via biting.

Headshots are effective for both types.



In RE, a virus (G, T, t-Abyss, etc.) causes the mutation. In some forms it bestows god-like powers. Usually, though, it just horribly mutates the subject. It can be spread via injection of the pure serum, or by bite/scratch of the infected.

In Hellsing, undeath is a sort of magical/spiritual thing rather than a viral condition.



A. Strength

Both the t-Virus and vampirism confer amazing strength. The subject can punch through metal/concrete/human chests.

B. Speed

Matrix-like backflips over bullets, dodges so fast they look like teleportation...

C. Endurance

The subject can take damage and hits that would decimate a normal human. I-beams dropped from a crane? No prob. 500 ft falls? Got it. Multiple gunshot wounds? Nothin'.

D. Healing

Linked to Endurance, above. The t-Virus healing powers are inferior to those that true vampirism confers, however. Usually getting one's head blown off is fatal with the t-Virus.

E. Red eyes

Which is why #5 comes in handy!

F. Mutation

In "ultimate" form, the Virus causes some nifty mutations. It's nowhere near as controllable as Alucard's Hellhounds, though. The Virus also"levels up," so to speak.



In the RE games, you have Jill Valentine and Claire Redfield (and Alice in the movies) as the strongest. In Hellsing, Integra and Seras.



Hellsing: Alucard wears his red shades. RE: Wesker wears his black shades. (He's always worn them, even before the need to conceal his red eyes.)



It's Umbrella Corp for most of the RE stories, Millennium for Hellsing.



The Major. Wesker. The similarities kinda end there, though, aside from the desire for world domination.



Self explanatory, no?



Millennium uses chips, Umbrella uses scarabs.



RE has more than its fair share! First it was Wesker, who never really was on the protags' side, then it was Jill, who was converted against her will. Hellsing of course has Walter.



Dok in Hellsing and RE's William Birkin. They were instrumental to the development of their employers' product development.



.50 cals rock, period. There's a general wealth of great weapons in both series.



Umbrella and Millennium both have agents/offices around the globe. They've infiltrated everything.



Yeah, every series has these! They even look alike in Hellsing and RE, though.



You have entire game in the RE series called Mercenaries! And Hellsing has the Wild Geese.


Ok, your turn!

You mentioned the mercenaries.
Ace you would be a shame to leave out Ada Wong from this conversation.
She is a bit of a wild card. It's never clear which rival umbrella organization she is working for. Lack of a proper name we are forced to call her employers "The Organization". She has been willing to work with both Leon and Wesker to obtain her goals and or survive.

Resident Evil reoccurring theme: Rocket launcher for the death blow.

Let's talk about Hunk shall we?
Nick names he has received for hes disturbing abilities and nearly unkillable nature "Mr. Death" or "Grim Reaper HUNK". Almost nothing is known about HUNK's history or even his real name. Hunk is Cold, silent, and devoid of emotion, he is a ruthless operative.

Does this not remind you of the stoic Captain?
Of course we can draw parallels of the titles of Hunk with that of Walter.

Oswell E. Spencer was the original b*****d in charge. Look to his treatment of the Trevor as proof of his inhumanity. We should mention the creation of the Wesker children.



Resident evil has a substantial amount of organizations and shadow organizations to wade through.


I am unsure how they are connected.
There is;
"The 3rd organization"
Umbrella
U.S.S. Alpha team (lead by Hunk)
S.T.A.R.S. Alpha and Beta team (Oddly enough formed by Wesker)
US-STRATCOM
Tricell inc
B.S.A.A.
U.B.C.S. (The night men)
The Monitors (Or the observers)
UT unit ( The umbrella trash sweepers)

Questions: How was Jessica different from the Wesker Children?
What form of the Progenitor virus was used on the Wesker Children?
What happened to Alex Wesker?
If Jessica was injected in 1967 with the type B when was Wesker injected? If he was born in 1960 how old was he when ithe The Prototype Virus was administered?
