| Oh yeah, the books are awesome. By far I'd have to go with either Caliban Cove, too, or Zero Hour. Have you read/do you know anything about the 8th and 9th books or The Beast of the Northern Seas? I hate it that I can only find them in German.
Still, I'm more for the comics. _________________ ~The Weapon of Mass Distraction~ COMMUNITY:Resident Evil Forums Chat Group: [link]Resident Evil Forums Facebook: [link]Come check my Let's Plays: [link]Gaming forum I'm moderating: [link] |

Did you just refer to Resident Evil as "horror movies"? I hope not. And yes, the book I read was basically the exact 1st game in book form. Exactly as the movies should have been..._________________ Leon Fanboys Please Click Here Wesker is officially dead: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/100/1006931p1.html | NiteKrawler wrote: | | Jamesy wrote: | | Fine you win NightCrawler |

| The comics are old news  They date back to 1998, the official comics anyway. You can NEVER have enough RE stuff. I'm currently hunting down some of the other comics. Nite, you should read Zero Hour. Then tell me if it was like the game  _________________ ~The Weapon of Mass Distraction~ COMMUNITY:Resident Evil Forums Chat Group: [link]Resident Evil Forums Facebook: [link]Come check my Let's Plays: [link]Gaming forum I'm moderating: [link] |

| @NiteKrawler: I meant horror movies in general, but I think Resident Evil kinda is a horror movie (or did you think it was a romantic comedy? lol) @Mass Destruction: I searched for comic books for horror movies, only found Halloween (Michael Myers) nothing on RE @Mass Distraction (2nd post): lol, really? I was planning on using them (books) for a reading log in my Reading class |

All 7 of them. My favorite was probably Umbrella Conspiracy, which was really enjoyable. While the Code Veronica novelization was the most dissapointing, for me anyway. Maybe because that is the one I was most excited to read.
I liked them though. Caliban Cove and Underworld are the only two completely original stories, while the other 5 are novelizations of existing games._________________ -Vae Victus-Suffering To The Conquered-"The ultimate lifeform...Tyrant", Albert Wesker, REmakeConsumer Recreation Services  |

| @Dragonfan: Wow, I was actually confused when you used two versions of my nick. Doesn't matter though. Well, on the actual point: maybe you should've searched for horror GAME comics. RE comics are pretty easy to find. Also (even though this was directed to Nite) Resident Evil is essentially a horror game. Not a movie. The movies are pretty much just a side product. @Spike: Actually, they aren't the only original books. There are also books 8 and 9  _________________ ~The Weapon of Mass Distraction~ COMMUNITY:Resident Evil Forums Chat Group: [link]Resident Evil Forums Facebook: [link]Come check my Let's Plays: [link]Gaming forum I'm moderating: [link] |

The Conspiracy was great, though it was based on the original game and didn't have stuff from the REmake._________________ ~The Weapon of Mass Distraction~ COMMUNITY:Resident Evil Forums Chat Group: [link]Resident Evil Forums Facebook: [link]Come check my Let's Plays: [link]Gaming forum I'm moderating: [link] |
