Voice-over (VO)
“Hey, I’m Malikai and I’m gonna be telling you
about the difference between graphics and lighting
through-out the resident evil series.
“First, to understand the main game I’m going to
be talking about, it would be best to have a brief
explanation of the story.”
Sales – Series has sold over 100 million copies
meaning their story must be good and popular
through-out the audience.
“Now we’ve covered the basic background of the
game, we can take a look into the differences,
starting with originals vs remakes”
Resident evil 2 against its remake – more shading
making dark places
We’re starting with the 2nd game as the first one
never actually had a remake
“The major difference between these games is the
attention to detail. For example, there is a lot more
rain in the second game so to improve the quality,
they started with the rainfall. Not only did they
focus on the noise it made when falling onto an
object, they also focused on how it affected the
characters appearance such as making the hair
and clothes look wet, giving it this reflective look.
This makes it appear more realistic and actually
wet.”
RE Engine (also known as Reach for the Moon
Engine) Also used for resident evil 7/Bio-hazard to
help improve its realism and features like lightning
strikes and more.
“Its obvious that you can tell a clear difference
between the graphics within the original and the
remake.”
Interview one – Shows the person being

original game and the remake.
Potential questions:
What is the biggest change between the two
games?

Resident evil 4 against its remake
Used the same engine (RE Engine) which could
help more with the realism for the naturalistic
environment that the character (Leon) has been
put on. For example the trees and the towns.

original game and the remake.
Potential questions:

Now after covering all of this, hopefully you know
how much graphics can change a potential theme
and how far our technology has come within the
video game community. Thank you for listening to
this documentary and have a good day.
