THE CENSORSHIP IN RESIDENT EVIL 🔞 First Zombie Scene

[@BitsBeats]

Did you know you've seen this scene censored your whole life?

I honestly did not!

No. But is was creepy enough for me.

This was my first PS1 game in 1996! I was 11 years old. What an amazing time to be a kid. I have so many memories playing RE1 alone in the dark. Being terrified.

[@joeythompkinsjr1873]

[@ibewatchin6497]

i would give my left nu.... no no both nuts to be able to go back in time and experience this game all over again... i too was but 11 when this came out and my older brother got it for me

Me too, maybe that's why this game was one of the best I've ever played, childhood things have a special value

[@doomsday6372]

Man something about the way that zombie looks even for how old the graphics are is pretty unsettling

[@gamercop2148]

I think it’s the eyes that makes the zombie horrifying

[@djnorris1572]

The scene that changed survival horror forever...

[@irick00]

Censoring a horror game is like buying an ice cream and throwing it away before the first bite 😂

[@chiarosuburekeni9325]

One of the most iconic cutscenes in gaming history. I’ll never forget experiencing it for the first time in 96. We were playing it for the first time and had no memory card so we couldn’t save. Most tense gaming experience of my life. We made it to the mansion the 2nd time then got decapitated by a hunter as the sun rose.

[@jamgrams3244]

Not having a memory card makes you a beast in the east, and a killer in the streets in the beginning of the game

[@RandemNJ]

Did the hunter go "ahhhgkgghh ahhhaagkhh!!"?

[@jojeanajaxon]

This scene scarred me as a kid. Saw it when I was 4 years old. I remember my dad took me to toys r us to pick out a barbie and he picked himself out a video game. It was this game. I remember looking at it on the way to the checkout and the zombie on the back or something like that. I got upset telling my dad to take it out of my hands coz I didnt wanna touch it coz the picture scared me so fucking bad. We went home and he popped the game in and my cousin who was 8 at the time was over and they were both stoked to check it out. Of course me being the only girl wanted to hang out with them while my dad played. I will never forget the horror I felt watching this scene. I immediately started crying and buried my head in my dads chest. I was beyond scared lol. My dad turned it off and my cousin got mad at me for ruining the fun lol. Thanks to this game I am and have always been obsessed with zombies. I've had zombie dreams my whole life and can remember one I had shortly after watching this game. I shit u not that dream is forever imprinted in my mind. As is this scene and this game. Lol. Being 30 years old now...I fucking love the RE series and play them myself now. I've seen almost every zombie movie there is to see and I promise you that isnt an understatement lol. I'm currently working on zombie books now coz the few zombie movies I havent seen I just cant seem to get my hands on and are prettymuch all international ones. Lol. So ya. That's my story I guess.

[@da5hainy556]

Facts

[@Thetrue777luck777]

Did you know the more time you take to get to the zombie the more he will eat of the corpse until there's nothing left not even the ammo clips and then he will walk out the door where Barry is.

[@Darek_B52]

I didn't know that

[@velocilevon]

Damn, even the ammo? That's one insatiable zombie. Now I just imagine that whenever a new playthrough starts, Chris rushes to him as quickly as possible and dropkicks the freak so he wouldn't touch the bullets.

[@millmr20]

That’s not true but cool idea.

[@amurilloreno]

​​​@@millmr20 Actually, it does(if my memory corrects) can happen. I got one when playing as Jill on PS4 version. Since it was long time playing it ever since PS3, I was trying to take my time remembering and checking every single interest point before meeting the first zombie. Suddenly, when I join with Barry near the fireplace, that zombie entered the room and instead of us shooting, Barry will be the one who kill it.

[@amurilloreno]

​@@millmr20 Tried with Chris the next one, but without checking every single interest point. And you got this default one as shown in video.

[@chives8980]

There’s something much scarier about old horror games with these kinds of graphics. I think maybe the sprites and backgrounds just look overall creepier with that old, patchy look to them. And not to mention the old grainy sounds, they’re so creepy.
