...that happened to me with Resident Evil. I played the first two games shortly after getting my Playstation about a year and a half ago, sometime after I had a look at some of the Novels.
I'm always wary about this kind of tie-in, often they seem hastily put together, but there has been something quite nice about the Resident Evil novels.
For those not in the know, Resident Evil is a tale of Scientific experimentation gone wrong. Mutated Viruses ... ...of the first of the Resident Evil games, and in fairness does a pretty good job with what's on offer there. The plot of Resident Evil in many ways flows like a film, with extended 'action' sequences between the plot revelations. What this book does is takes that plot, divides it a bit more evenly between the main characters and the supporting characters (Although for the most part these characters never gain much more personality than the game gives ...

Advantages: Fantastic read, very gripping Disadvantages: A little short
...in the series of the resident evil a week ago, and I have only just finished reading it. What a brilliant book and very well written. For those who have played the first game in the series, it ties in nicely and bulks out the plot of the game, but for those that havent, the book isnt totally unreadable.

Advantages: Fantastic Disadvantages: The game should be more like it
Resident Evil: The Umbrella Conspiracy is a chilling novelisation of the Resident Evil game. The main story is exactly like the game; the only real difference is that they have more ammunition in the book. What I liked most about the book is the way Perry took on the story as if it was her own. It was not just a book of game, it was a story. And having played the game and read the book, the book is far more terrifying. Perhaps the only disappointing ...
