Evil stalks these all-too-familiar streets
Article Abstract:
In these two survival-horror action games, the player assumes the character of the protagonist making their way through different levels of play. As the game progresses, players accumulate powers and weapons they need to battle the monsters. Resident Evil 3: Nemesis is similar to its two previous versions. Besides a better graphics engine, the game allows users to vary the story line. Squaresoft's Parasite Eve II requires users to employ role-playing game strategies to advance past each monster. Of the two games, Parasite seems fresher.
