    Code Veronica was certainly one of the most Resident Evil games of all time.

    First of all, let's talk about the graphics. They were atrocious! I could hardly believe that this was a game for the Dreamcast, considering how outdated and pixelated everything looked. The character models were clunky and lacked any semblance of realism. It felt like I was controlling blocky mannequins rather than actual characters.

It felt like I was controlling blocky mannequins rather than actual characters.

    And the controls! Who on earth thought these controls were a good idea? They were beyond frustrating and completely unresponsive. Trying to aim at enemies was a nightmare, and I ended up wasting so much ammunition just trying to get a decent shot.

    The gameplay was just as bad as the graphics and controls. The puzzles were nonsensical and poorly designed, leaving me scratching my head more often than not. The difficulty curve was all over the place, with some sections being mind-numbingly easy and others seemingly impossible. It felt like the developers were just trying to pad the game's length without any thought for the player's enjoyment.

    Let's not forget the infuriating save system. Limited save ribbons? Seriously? Who has time for that in this day and age? I want to enjoy my gaming experience, not be constantly stressed out about when the next save point will come around. It felt like the game was punishing me for even attempting to progress.

    And the story? Laughable. The plot was convoluted and filled with more plot holes than a sieve. I struggled to connect with any of the characters, who were as one-dimensional as they come. The dialogue was cringe-worthy, and the voice acting was so bad it made me want to mute the game entirely    … Expand
