It is 12/26/2019, I am a 28 years old man, and one of the biggest disappointments in my life, was never being able to open that door in the second floor of the police station, I can remember my friends telling me behind that door was a room full of weapons or things like that, but you sir, today you allow me to complete a part of my life as a gamer, thanks.
@@corneliussnow8215 I was like 8 when I started playing this game, I think I was not that perceptive to notice that. I just checked a map of the police station and indeed. It also surprise me how many people also had this same confusion, and how Ink Ribbon is the first person I have seen speaking about it.
@@jhonwalterariasocampo3146 That makes sense. I was older when I first played it as I was probably 2-3 when RE2 came out. Due to the nature of the early games, checking the map was something I did alot so naturally, I put two and two together to understand what was behind the locked door.
When I was a kid. My group played this game. One of my friend said that mysterious door lead to a secret room of police department contain special gun, until I opened a map and found out it's the one Sherry crawl. We laugh for days because his stupid lies. Oh good old memories.
I had a friend tell me there was a super long bowie knife you could get from a guy in the sewers that could one shot decap all regular zombies. He said he only found him once and he climbed out the hole Sherry escapes out of in the Claire story. Kid video game rumors were so amusing back then
What were Coca Cola so pissed about? Were they afraid someone was gonna Play resident evil 2 and go "Hmm Id love to buy some Coca Cola now so I can see the logo for it. Oh wait! Theres a Coca Cola machine with the logo in this game! Never mind. I dont want one now"
Big Smoke No people were blowing people's heads off with an Enhanced Shotgun when there was a queue at Coca Cola vending machines thinking they were zombies. It was very serious.
@@FlameBunny Because they were using their brand without permission. It's lame how copyright works, but they had no choice but to ask for it to be removed. It made it seem like they were a sponsor of resident evil.
There is one simple detail, not sure if it's an easter egg, but while playing as Chris in Extreme Battle, you notice how he can handle the Upgraded shotgun like a veteran, while Leon handle it like an inexperienced rookie.
Wow, thanks for clarifying up that weird red door. I struggled with both Clair and Leon to find a way to open it or find an alt route to it. So glad this video clarifies what is perhaps the biggest mystery in all of RE2.
....how anyone took that blur of pixels and identified it as the Back to the Future 3 reference is BEYOND me. But between that and the hidden gate camera angle you got me a couple times, so kudos. Gotta love that old games can still surprise you with hidden details.
There is something similar in the Evil within which is no surprise since Shinji san was the director of the game shame he wasnt in the second... anyways where you sabe our game in tew there is a photo of the main hall of RE 1 , also like a ton of references to re 1 cool Little details ofc.
@Aetnik TEW2 needed more Shinji and less Bethesda if you ask me. But more interesting, my girlfriend and I kind of think there may be some TEW references in the RE2 remake to honour Shinji. All the mannequins seem out of place otherwise, and Leon's noir outfit is almost identical to Seb's.
@@Gaff. indeed my thoughts as well thats why tew 2 didnt havetha powerful effect as 1 cause Bethesda attempt to believe they have the same ability as shinji san well nah thatsnever gonna happen andyeah ithought the same that noir Leon was more like Sebastian somehow in honor to its creator anyway hope Bethesda attempts to think again and gives thecontrol back to shinji if TEW 3 happens ever.

It's extremely rushed and I think that's because of disagreements between Tango and Bethesda as they ran out of time, and I think the focus on stealth was added later as a cover for the fact that the combat balance is really off. TEW1 has some oversights but it's clear they playtested it endlessly for balance. TEW2 doesn't feel playtested too much.

Oh wow... I was just as curious about that locked door. I remember because back in the day, a newly friend of mine who had a PSX, played RE2 before I met him so he was familiar with the RPD station when I watched him play RE3 for the first time. He thought this door would be unlocked on RE3, but he kept wondering what was behind the door as well. Now I know..
Welp, most RE players doesn't actually use the map. Finishing it the first time running around and checking up things. I didn't even remembered this door until i finished it. As long as we're progressing in the game, we didn't actually care unless you're lost. But oh well. This was actually when i was 10 😅
You would of thought Coca-Cola had the best people in marketing and advertising, yet they pull out of a free plug in such a popular game. I ate a lot of Burger King's during this game.

One Last thing: I want capcom to make a Resident Evil game, where all of the Characters exist, Leon, Claire, Chris, Carlos, Jill, Ada, Billy, Barry, Rebecca, Krauser and last but not least Albert Wesker, and all of them should meet each other, even though some of them have met but most of them didn't i.e Leon never met jill, Wesker, Carlos and Vice Versa.
The unopenable door is so easy to realise where and what it was don't get me wrong I tried to open it but knew why it was there plus the shotgun easter egg when u fire at the camera
You've missed a important one, in the stars office if you search Wesker's desk for 50 times you'll get a roll of film, and if you develop this film in the dark room you'll get a photo of Rebecca wearing a green RPD sportswear sitting down holding a basketball, which is one of the DLC costume you can buy in re0 hd.
I'm starting to believe that no one can tell me anything new about any RE game other than maybe a glitch or so. I watch all these Easter egg videos and by far you are the only one to tell me 1 new thing. Code Veronica X infinite herb was the only thing I hadn't already known. Days upon days of RE game play. Love this franchise just a little sad to see the road it took with RE3 remake.
@Christian, I feel the same about RE3, so frustrating! I read somewhere that it wasn't supposed to be a remake, but a reimagining or something. I'm convinced that the developers went lazy, didn't invest a lot of effort in such a classic and they tried to justify the result by saying it wasn't a remake. We can keep enjoying the oldies, but I was expecting something else.
The gold emblem is made of gold and could have been salvaged from the site of the explosion. I am baffled how no one checked the map and figured out what that door was, it was the first thing I did upon encountering it
I discovered the RE universe thanks to my mom, she is not a gamer herself, but loves to watch others play. She saw a kid playing RE2 at the mall and decided to purchase the game so my sister and I could play for her and we totaly fell in love with the franchise. The first one we played was RE2 for Nintendo64, the one my mom brought home almost 24 years ago. Yes, I'm a 48 year old lady myself (same age as Chris Redfield), mom is 73, and now my teenage son is also a die-hard fan. Anyway, I can swear that in the Nintendo64 version, right outside the unlockable door, hands got out from beneath and grabbed my character's feet (don't remember which one) giving us a hell of a jump-scare; this happened before rearranging the statues to obtain one of the red jewels. For some stupid reason, I lost the game cartdrige like 16 years ago (yes, I'm a dumbass), but I do own the PS2 version as well and the feet-grabbing hands never appear in the PS2 version. I've been telling my son about this for years, but I've never found a video or a post mentioning the hands reaching out for a character's feet. Did this ever happened to any of you? Could I have dreamt it? (It wouldn't surprise me as I was obsessed with the game) BTW, I always knew where this door led to thanks to the map and because I always explore all areas thoroughly. Well, @InkRibbon, I just gotta say that I love your chanel. So many dear memories with these games, thanks for your videos!
After decades of playing this...especially how much I’ve played this since the announcement of RE2 remake, I’ve never noticed any of these outside of Burger Kong & the locked boarded up door. I’ve only recently discovered the secret angle of the RPD gate completely by mistake a few months ago. Cool video.
There's another Easter egg that appears in the opening cutscene of both Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3: Nemesis that most people miss. In Resident Evil 2, Leon and Claire are driving an RPD police cruiser through Raccoon City, which is destroyed by a crashing semi truck, just before the tanker crushes the police car, the camera pans above the roof, when it does, the car's number is 102, this car also appears in the opening cutscene of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, it's one of the police cruisers that appears at the police barricade, which took place only two days earlier on the 27th of September, because if you examine the notice board in the office where Marvin is found, the current date is revealed to be the 29th, only 24 hours after Jill passes through the station in her story.
I'm surprised you didn't include the special key you can get from the helicopter pilot zombie if you don't pick anything up before reaching the RPD. He appears outside and takes a lot of bullets to kill. The key unlocks a locker in the photo room and has outfits.
Got a bonus one for you and anyone reading.When you find Marvin the first time the locker he's leaning on has "Jojo" written on it.Kamiya (Director) did confirm it is indeed a reference to Jojo's Bizzare Adventure.
"There's a kennel in the back of the building, inside the kennel is"- uhhh, no I mean on top of the kennel is a little sign that also reads JoJo. Funny, given that in part 3 of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, JoJo was locked up, albeit not in a kennel
I noticed "Elevater" in my first play through. It's one of my favorites. My sister's favorite RE mistake is "A dried up pumpkins are placed here" in RE3.
Oh my good god! That gosh darn red door drove me mad! I was positive I’d missed something! I heard Barry’s magnum could be found in there, but you’ve literally just blown my mind! After all these years lmao! Thanks man, kudos to you!
I’m impressed. I am a huge resident evil 2 fan and I was convinced that there would be nothing here that I didn’t already know…boy was I wrong! Thanks for elaborating on that door too!!
Dude! That red locked door always bothered me as a kid too. Not only that but like you, after finding out that I've already been on the other side ofvthe door, it always bugged me that I was never able to pick up that sledge hammer on the side. It seriously looks like an object you can pick up and use.
- In the corridor that leads to the interrogation room you can see a wooden plank with "REDЯUM" written on it. A reference to The Shining (1980) - When you are talking to Marvin you can see a locker named "JoJo", a possible reference to JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. There are more easter eggs but I think you have covered a good amount of them. Good job 👍
It took me a few play throughs, but I found out about the door nailed shut. It was so mysterious before I realized that it was the door Sherry went under lol
This probably doesn't matter to most people, but there's a disc case with the Playstation Underground symbol on Chris' desk too. It's the square black case, with the red symbol on it, and the white in the center. It may have been an actual demo disc case, but I can't find my copy of it at the moment.
I was just thinking if I ever make a channel like this I'd search for really obscure and rare shit. And there you said it, good job with all the videos dude!
You forgot to add Brad Vickers(The first victim of Nemesis on RE3). To respawn him in the original RE2 from the very start don't shoot anything or get anything until you get to rpd. Before you go inside RPD after getting inside in the first gate head straight and go down to alley and you'll see brad as a zombie and you'll get a key to his locker in the dark room to unlock the leon's costumes. Btw, Jill, She is the first one to arrive to RPD before Leon & Claire and see Marvin lying down and unconscious and holding a report(not yet zombie) and notice in RE2 he's awake and become a zombie.
Thanks a lot dude, for showing the secret of the door that never opens. Since I was 9 I wondered what was behind it and 16 years later you closed the case for me. Much appreciated 🙌
WOW thanks for no. 3! I imagined all sorts of stuff that could be in the other side of that door as a kid :D I even dreamed about it as if I opened it. Btw, you missed one cute easter egg at the beginning. Chris' jacket hung from the wall is also "Made in Heaven" just like Claire's and his guitar was a Fender Telecaster Sunburst Brown.
There is 3 colors of blood, for Resident Evil 2. Red, green, and blue which was pretty weird. Violence control=the gore Brad Vickers shows up as a zombie, and gives the character a special key. If they don't pick nothing up, at the beginning of the game. You will get the shotgun from Robert Kendo, if you play as Leon. You will get the crossbow from Robert, if you play as Claire. There is writing in The R.P.D. Hallway where the zombie hands/arms, pop out of the wall that says walk don't run. Unlike Resident Evil 3:Nemesis some of the doors in the police station, on Resident Evil 2 are not blocked of with ply wood
Now that I'm so used to the remake I went back and was genuinely surprised by some of the differences I'd forgot such as not entering the RPD through the front gate you mention.
Many references to the British rock band Queen can be seen throughout the franchise. RE 0: Billy's tattoo says "mother love" RE 2: Claire's jacket has "let me live" printed on the back and Chris's jacket has "Made in heaven" RE 3: The same jacket can be seen while you explore the police dept. RE CV: The "Let me live" jacket makes a comeback. RE 4: The song title My Life Has Been Saved can be seen in the background of the inventory screen (behind Leon) Those are all I can recall. Perhaps the game devs are fans of the group.
Did you know that the poor bloke in the RE2 Remake who gets split in two at the very beginning is actually an unlockable playable character in the Resident Evil Outbreak series? He actually even looks like him, too. Nice touch!
Nice video. Just a correction though: “Cogedlo” means “grab him”. In Spain instead of using the word “agarrar” (to grab) they say “coger”. In Mexico, it has the same meaning but it’s not used because it has a double meaning: “to fu**” So: To grab translates as “agarrar” in Mexico and as “coger” in Spain, but both mean the same thing. So las plagas are using the proper way of speaking from Spain.
There's also a spelling mistake in the underground parking lot of the RPD. The "wrecked car" that blocks your way to the jail cells and kennels has two words spelled wrong on it. "Emergencey" and "Dail"
The one I'd like to see more of is all of the graffiti and signs in the game that get repeated in 2 and 3. Exevia car batteries. The alien with the "Above the Rim" and "Amiset." Interesting to see where they pop up if people sit down and take a good look.
"hunters didn't appear as an enemy until resident evil outbreak in 2003" *they were in RE in 1996* *they were in RE3 in 1999* *they were in Code Veronica in 2000*
Thank you for pointing this out. As soon as I heard that statement, I knew he was wrong. Blows my mind that no one else called that out. Guess there isn't many diehard fans watching this video xD
I was going to mention this to him but you already did. This is one of my favorite Easter Egg in the game and I remember laughing at it once I realized it was spelled backward.
There is also a DeLorean (referencing BTTF) in the streets at the very beginning of Claire’s scenario B, just before reaching the station. Also, I noticed Mr Bean’s (TV comedy character) Mini near the Bus at the beginning of scenario A. Great video 👍
I remember getting resident evil the directors cut and they had an re2 demo packed in with it. Played the hell out of it. Got the full game when it came out. Time sure has flown hasnt it?
You can see a Delorean at the start if Claire's Senario B, you can see it while your walking towards the police station.You can also find Mr.Bean's iconic green car from the show (but its all wrecked) you can see it in Claire and Leon's Scenario A after you get out of the alley full of zombies.The alley that is being blocked by a kendo gunshop truck in Re2 is blocking a location that will be seen in Re3, its the one where you can go up an apartment stairs and get 3 herbs from its balcony,
Some of your easter eggs are extremely informative. I didn’t know at all about the red door 🚪 the gold emblem and the Back to the Future 3 picture, who would’ve thought the developers would include such details!
One more 🍬🐰🌺🥚... When you do enough damage to Birkin in his second form, his original head will try to rise up and return itself to the original position.
U forgot the Brad Vicers zombie. If On hard mode you get to the police station without shooting any zombies, u can fight his zombie in the ally below the RPD entrance.
In my recent stream of RE2 I mentioned the RPD gate but didn't remember how to trigger it, and I also mentioned the zombie head but I don't think my version had where you could see the head anyway... It's nice to see someone who puts a lot of effort in research on these kind of things.
Awesome video man. Funny thing and I swear by this, the part where you mentioned shooting the screen, I had the most random moment ever in RE1 the original where when Jill kicked a zombie's head the face landed right in front of my screen. It was actually the first zombie you meet.
there is another easter egg ive just discovered. In the intro fmv, when claire and leon run away from the bar, you can see written on the store aphex twin richard james d album.
About the shooting the screen, you can also find it in the first resident evil. I'm playing the first 3 games after a long time and I didn't know about this in any of the games, but when I played the Chris scenario during the second fight with the snake which she opens a hole on the ground, in that room there's a camera angle that you can shoot the camera. I gotta say I just stumbled upon your channel at the right time and I'm loving it, but maybe you already covered this in another video. In any case, keep up the good content.
There's one I remember from the original release of RE 2 for the PSX. Remember the weapon box key you find in the factory? Well if you play as Leon on any playthrough and use the key to get the magnum parts in Umbrella's secret laboratory, they misspell the word magnum for "mugnum" parts.
No one ever talks about this but i couldnt have been the only one thats noticed. near the beginning in western hallway after the hall you first meet the licker, there is a red double doors that lead to a breifing room with podium up front and seats arranged in front of it. theres also a little room in back with a fireplace you can light to get a red jewel from a painting. the non intended easter egg mistake in the scenery of the main room is the incorrectly upside down American Flag, which erroneously puts the blue square with stars at the end of the flag instead of the top. you can enter this room in RE3 and the flag still has this mistake. Cant hate on it too much though. The backround illustrators for these two games kinda were the some of the best at it in their time so this minor slip ups hardly something to bust their balls about.
Great video. Thanks for the upload. I was actually expecting the Remake looked like a remastered game, but unfortunately it was not. So I would keep playing the original RE2 game.
Conoscevo già tutti questi easter egg... Ma ho messo lo stesso il like perché fa sempre piacere vedere che si parla ancora nel 2020 del mio gioco preferito anche a più di 20 anni di distanza. W Resident evil 2
You forgot the locker that Marvin lay down to while in the cutscene. It's kinda blurr but locker named tag is "Jojo" even the director of the game confirmed it. I find it bizarre 😅
For all those that don't see a connection between Resident Evil and Back To The Future, allow me to reveal one! Apparently Paul Haddad, the original voice actor fro Leon in Resident Evil 2, used Indiana Jones and Marty McFly as inspirations and basis for voicing Leon, stating that he found Leon a brave, but inexperienced, hero who eventually overcomes his difficulties, exactly like Marty McFly.
It wasnt just the word elevator that was misspelled, in the version of the game i played last the word "Emergency" was misspelled on the elevator doors themselves.
Here's a few that you should know about. Around the 2:10 mark of this vid you talk about the capcom connection. With the store being named ARUKAS which is SAKURA spelled backwards. Did you know that NEMESIS in RE 3 was based on SAGAT from.....you guessed it the street fighter series. How so you say???? Notice his stance when he holds you by your face, similar to SAGAT face grab and smash. Also, hos running attacks are also based on SAGATS running and shoulder slam attacks. The way he is grabbing a dead BRAD VICKERS in the beginning of the game. Is a direct homage to the way SAGAT holds his defeated opponents after beating them. Also, when you unlock HUNK notice where he is standing at the start of his mission and look closely at the wall next to him and you can see the #4 etched in the wall. One last bonus easter egg to tell you about. The character TOFU was created as a challenge to all those gamers who sent videos of themselves beating the very 1st RE 1 game with nothing but the knife. Before the days of streaming people would make vids of themselves, and sent it to the guys at CAPCOM seeing if they could challenge the gamers. So the development team took their challenge and unleashed TOFU onto the world. Who only yelled in Japanese jibberish, turned purple when poisoned, turned red when when you took too much damage.
You could do the "shoot at the screen" thing in RE1 too. Now, it's been a while since I played it, but the thing was that there were only really like two or three places where you could do it, and certain camera angles are slightly different in the Director's Cut version. That's why you can only shoot at the screen in one of the versions, either the original or the DC. I really don't remember which is it, though. I do remember that one of the places where you could do it was the hallway where one of the doors led to the "Jill sandwich" trap. Check one of the angles in which your character can point the shotgun directly to the camera. I don't remember if the shotgun is the only gun that works, but it's the one I used to use for this trick.
You mentioned that the Coke inspired vending machines were removed from subsequent ports of the game (which I believe happened to be the Dual Shock version of the game) but what is interesting is that in the Dreamcast version of the game, I think the blue Coke machines are still there! I'll have to dig my copy of the game out to confirm.
Just a fun fact to go along with #8. Parasite Eve 2 (Square 1999) actually had licensed Coke products in game (vending machines, and actual sodas to drink).

Most excellent video dude, really enjoyed this and your Resi 3 one :)
The kind of video you start to watch thinkin "cmon, i know all about that game" ...and then...BOOM !!! Back to the future 3 picture xD
They have a pic of MJ in his bulls jersey slam dunking to
I’m not sure that pic is from BTTF...the hat is different on the misses in the real photo
Oh wow... I was just as curious about that locked door.

I picked that up on my Own Years ago. Just Running Around to see where it was Matched Up. I didn't even look at the Map. lol
Welp, most RE players doesn't actually use the map. Finishing it the first time running around and checking up things. I didn't even remembered this door until i finished it.

I ate a lot of Burger King's during this game.
Well in fairness how would they know it would become a classic but yeah boneyard move since there was no downside
Few things that i like about Original RE2:
1) Love the Save Room background Music
2) Love the RPD Main Hall Background Music
3) We get to explore the RPD Building alot something we can't do in RE3 because they barred most of the doors in RE3, i always wanted to be on the upper portion where we have an emergency ladder, at least in RE3 the ladder should've remained deployed so that we could be able to reach the upper section.
4) Love the Mr X, I didn't know that he was in the B scenario
5) Awesome story.
6) I even tried myself about the barred door, before the statue, i went to the corridor and saw the map, then i went to the opposite side of the door and again saw the map, it was the same door, in RE3 i saw the door, to this day i found it mysterious until i watched this video.
One Last thing: I want capcom to make a Resident Evil game, where all of the Characters exist, Leon, Claire, Chris, Carlos, Jill, Ada, Billy, Barry, Rebecca, Krauser and last but not least Albert Wesker, and all of them should meet each other, even though some of them have met but most of them didn't i.e Leon never met jill, Wesker, Carlos and Vice Versa.
And Billy
i distinctly remember magnum being spelled "mugnum" on the original printing of the ps1 game
I was getting ready to comment the same thing lol
Was it not only the magnum parts?
There were a few translations that were butchered
The unopenable door is so easy to realise where and what it was don't get me wrong I tried to open it but knew why it was there plus the shotgun easter egg when u fire at the camera
Re2 og is love❤, re2 remake is 👎
You've missed a important one, in the stars office if you search Wesker's desk for 50 times you'll get a roll of film, and if you develop this film in the dark room you'll get a photo of Rebecca wearing a green RPD sportswear sitting down holding a basketball, which is one of the DLC costume you can buy in re0 hd.
You forgot to add how poorly photshop'd the pic was. That was the best thing about it.
Ugh that's no longer a secret everyone knows about that one
❤
True i saw this too
So true! A CLASSIC easter egg!! One of my all time favs.😍
I'm starting to believe that no one can tell me anything new about any RE game other than maybe a glitch or so.
I watch all these Easter egg videos and by far you are the only one to tell me 1 new thing. Code Veronica X infinite herb was the only thing I hadn't already known. Days upon days of RE game play. Love this franchise just a little sad to see the road it took with RE3 remake.
@Christian, I feel the same about RE3, so frustrating! I read somewhere that it wasn't supposed to be a remake, but a reimagining or something. I'm convinced that the developers went lazy, didn't invest a lot of effort in such a classic and they tried to justify the result by saying it wasn't a remake.
We can keep enjoying the oldies, but I was expecting something else.
The gold emblem is made of gold and could have been salvaged from the site of the explosion. I am baffled how no one checked the map and figured out what that door was, it was the first thing I did upon encountering it
BTW My game had the BLUE soda machines. I put my game on pr order and got one of the 1st copies way back in 1998. 😍
You have a real treasure right there!
mine does as well bought it on amazon
You can probably sell it for more the 1k
OMG !!!! THAT DOOR BOTHERED ME SO MUCH THAT I CANT OPEN IT !!!!! I feel so relieved now XD
lol
Finally figure it out as well. Just took me like 20 years. Lol
did you never look at the map?
@@Psymon1471 My thoughts exactly...
lol where do you think Sherry crawled to after she went through that hole?
Considering Coca Cola make millions a year a homage in a horror game should not bother them
*billions* per year
@Crohns Disease
And tobacco, caffeine and alcohol.
Idiots at best.
Resident evil 1.5 had Pepsi just thought I'd let you know.
You miss the welcome party sign for leon it was spelled "wellcome leon"
I think he didn't mention it cause that's something a lit of people already know

Good list. Bit late to the party but you missed a good one.
Mr Beans Mini (green and black car) near the beginning outside the liquor shop
I discovered the RE universe thanks to my mom, she is not a gamer herself, but loves to watch others play. She saw a kid playing RE2 at the mall and decided to purchase the game so my sister and I could play for her and we totaly fell in love with the franchise. The first one we played was RE2 for Nintendo64, the one my mom brought home almost 24 years ago. Yes, I'm a 48 year old lady myself (same age as Chris Redfield), mom is 73, and now my teenage son is also a die-hard fan.
Anyway, I can swear that in the Nintendo64 version, right outside the unlockable door, hands got out from beneath and grabbed my character's feet (don't remember which one) giving us a hell of a jump-scare; this happened before rearranging the statues to obtain one of the red jewels. For some stupid reason, I lost the game cartdrige like 16 years ago (yes, I'm a dumbass), but I do own the PS2 version as well and the feet-grabbing hands never appear in the PS2 version.
I've been telling my son about this for years, but I've never found a video or a post mentioning the hands reaching out for a character's feet.
Did this ever happened to any of you?
Could I have dreamt it? (It wouldn't surprise me as I was obsessed with the game)
BTW, I always knew where this door led to thanks to the map and because I always explore all areas thoroughly.
Well, @InkRibbon, I just gotta say that I love your chanel. So many dear memories with these games, thanks for your videos!
Wow! Number 3 The mysterious locked door has bothered me for years, I gave up on what it could be. Thank you for finally revealing what it was :)
After decades of playing this...especially how much I’ve played this since the announcement of RE2 remake, I’ve never noticed any of these outside of Burger Kong & the locked boarded up door. I’ve only recently discovered the secret angle of the RPD gate completely by mistake a few months ago. Cool video.
There's another Easter egg that appears in the opening cutscene of both Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3: Nemesis that most people miss. In Resident Evil 2, Leon and Claire are driving an RPD police cruiser through Raccoon City, which is destroyed by a crashing semi truck, just before the tanker crushes the police car, the camera pans above the roof, when it does, the car's number is 102, this car also appears in the opening cutscene of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, it's one of the police cruisers that appears at the police barricade, which took place only two days earlier on the 27th of September, because if you examine the notice board in the office where Marvin is found, the current date is revealed to be the 29th, only 24 hours after Jill passes through the station in her story.
2:35 - I love how it changes from Coca Cola to "Regular Cola".
I'm surprised you didn't include the special key you can get from the helicopter pilot zombie if you don't pick anything up before reaching the RPD. He appears outside and takes a lot of bullets to kill. The key unlocks a locker in the photo room and has outfits.
Brad Vickers*
@@chrisreposting7678 he does not deserve to have a name.
You mean “chicken heart” 😂🤙🏻
Definitely should have been mentioned in place of a few of these nonsense ones.
Got a bonus one for you and anyone reading.When you find Marvin the first time the locker he's leaning on has "Jojo" written on it.Kamiya (Director) did confirm it is indeed a reference to Jojo's Bizzare Adventure.
"There's a kennel in the back of the building, inside the kennel is"- uhhh, no I mean on top of the kennel is a little sign that also reads JoJo.
Funny, given that in part 3 of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, JoJo was locked up, albeit not in a kennel
Surprisingly, this video actually had some Easter eggs I wasn't aware of lol you got a sub out of me. Great video!
I noticed "Elevater" in my first play through. It's one of my favorites. My sister's favorite RE mistake is "A dried up pumpkins are placed here" in RE3.
It also says "EMERGENCEY" right above it.
Oh my good god! That gosh darn red door drove me mad! I was positive I’d missed something! I heard Barry’s magnum could be found in there, but you’ve literally just blown my mind! After all these years lmao! Thanks man, kudos to you!
Just finished replaying the game, so this video was great fun to watch!
Did you play as Leon or Claire?
@@ChrisSmith-lf1yu Claire A Leon B
@@KawaiiGames me x? Your mad he creeps me out 😂
I’m impressed. I am a huge resident evil 2 fan and I was convinced that there would be nothing here that I didn’t already know…boy was I wrong! Thanks for elaborating on that door too!!
In the sewer just after the alligator part, the next door is “electornically locked”. Another spelling error.
Hideki Kamiya said that the game was finished before deadline, so they had an extra time and added minigames.
Dude! That red locked door always bothered me as a kid too. Not only that but like you, after finding out that I've already been on the other side ofvthe door, it always bugged me that I was never able to pick up that sledge hammer on the side. It seriously looks like an object you can pick up and use.
- In the corridor that leads to the interrogation room you can see a wooden plank with "REDЯUM" written on it. A reference to The Shining (1980)
- When you are talking to Marvin you can see a locker named "JoJo", a possible reference to JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
There are more easter eggs but I think you have covered a good amount of them. Good job 👍
The Shining was originally published in 1977
The unopenable door had me too! I’m so glad you added that to the video!
Actually the Gold Emblem and the BTF photo was a new to me, the other ones I already knew but that was a good video, thanks!
Personally my favorite Easter eggs were in the N64 port. Those being the Brads diary and Nemesis being the code for the lab.
It took me a few play throughs, but I found out about the door nailed shut. It was so mysterious before I realized that it was the door Sherry went under lol
the game I played had the original soda machine. that's how I roll.
This probably doesn't matter to most people, but there's a disc case with the Playstation Underground symbol on Chris' desk too. It's the square black case, with the red symbol on it, and the white in the center. It may have been an actual demo disc case, but I can't find my copy of it at the moment.
I was just thinking if I ever make a channel like this I'd search for really obscure and rare shit. And there you said it, good job with all the videos dude!
You forgot to add Brad Vickers(The first victim of Nemesis on RE3). To respawn him in the original RE2 from the very start don't shoot anything or get anything until you get to rpd. Before you go inside RPD after getting inside in the first gate head straight and go down to alley and you'll see brad as a zombie and you'll get a key to his locker in the dark room to unlock the leon's costumes.
Btw, Jill, She is the first one to arrive to RPD before Leon & Claire and see Marvin lying down and unconscious and holding a report(not yet zombie) and notice in RE2 he's awake and become a zombie.
Thanks a lot dude, for showing the secret of the door that never opens. Since I was 9 I wondered what was behind it and 16 years later you closed the case for me. Much appreciated 🙌
You can find Delorian in this game too. Right at the beginning of second scenario!
I only found that hidden camera angle once and couldn't convince anybody it existed! Thanks for revindicating me years later :)
WOW thanks for no. 3! I imagined all sorts of stuff that could be in the other side of that door as a kid :D I even dreamed about it as if I opened it.
Btw, you missed one cute easter egg at the beginning. Chris' jacket hung from the wall is also "Made in Heaven" just like Claire's and his guitar was a Fender Telecaster Sunburst Brown.
Dude that door HAD ME JUST AS NUTS
I'm glad you found out what it was. Years of wondering, put to rest.
I was also 12 when this game came out. I remembering buying the Resident Evil Directors Cut just to play the RE2 Demo
4:36 you should’ve also mentioned “weLLcome Leon” sign in the rpd
There is 3 colors of blood, for Resident Evil 2. Red, green, and blue which was pretty weird. Violence control=the gore Brad Vickers shows up as a zombie, and gives the character a special key. If they don't pick nothing up, at the beginning of the game. You will get the shotgun from Robert Kendo, if you play as Leon. You will get the crossbow from Robert, if you play as Claire. There is writing in The R.P.D. Hallway where the zombie hands/arms, pop out of the wall that says walk don't run. Unlike Resident Evil 3:Nemesis some of the doors in the police station, on Resident Evil 2 are not blocked of with ply wood
Now that I'm so used to the remake I went back and was genuinely surprised by some of the differences I'd forgot such as not entering the RPD through the front gate you mention.
Many references to the British rock band Queen can be seen throughout the franchise.
RE 0: Billy's tattoo says "mother love"
RE 2: Claire's jacket has "let me live" printed on the back and Chris's jacket has "Made in heaven"
RE 3: The same jacket can be seen while you explore the police dept.
RE CV: The "Let me live" jacket makes a comeback.
RE 4: The song title My Life Has Been Saved can be seen in the background of the inventory screen (behind Leon)
Those are all I can recall.
Perhaps the game devs are fans of the group.
Reminds me of ff7 with the my bloody valentine refs
the alternative licker scene also explained where the cops head went. Cool!
Did you know that the poor bloke in the RE2 Remake who gets split in two at the very beginning is actually an unlockable playable character in the Resident Evil Outbreak series? He actually even looks like him, too.
Nice touch!
There are actually 2 spelling mistakes in the same place. Check out the writing on the side of the van that you help Ada to push.
'Dail'
'Emergencey'
Oh man I did forget about those!
'DANGAR' above the door in the room with all the screens with the typewriter/item box in, too.
Nice video. Just a correction though:
“Cogedlo” means “grab him”.
In Spain instead of using the word “agarrar” (to grab) they say “coger”.
In Mexico, it has the same meaning but it’s not used because it has a double meaning: “to fu**”
So:
To grab translates as “agarrar” in Mexico and as “coger” in Spain, but both mean the same thing.
So las plagas are using the proper way of speaking from Spain.
nice notes
wrong video though :)
There's also a spelling mistake in the underground parking lot of the RPD. The "wrecked car" that blocks your way to the jail cells and kennels has two words spelled wrong on it. "Emergencey" and "Dail"
The one I'd like to see more of is all of the graffiti and signs in the game that get repeated in 2 and 3. Exevia car batteries. The alien with the "Above the Rim" and "Amiset." Interesting to see where they pop up if people sit down and take a good look.
"hunters didn't appear as an enemy until resident evil outbreak in 2003"
*they were in RE in 1996*
*they were in RE3 in 1999*
*they were in Code Veronica in 2000*
I think he was referring to that specific hunter that was in the room. The hunters do tend to have different variations from game to game.
@@alanbrad4564
If he meant the specific type of Hunter, that didn't seem very clear. If he did, then my bad. I missed that point.
@@jjwp-ql5rv yeah, I'm not really sure, so I feel the same way.
Thank you for pointing this out. As soon as I heard that statement, I knew he was wrong.
Blows my mind that no one else called that out.
Guess there isn't many diehard fans watching this video xD
He says "especially this hunter"
What about "Redrum" spelled on the wall in the police dept.
Ah, yes. Noticed that as well when I was playing it on PSP
I was going to mention this to him but you already did. This is one of my favorite Easter Egg in the game and I remember laughing at it once I realized it was spelled backward.
One of the best games in this franchise, a true classic and a must own.
There is also a DeLorean (referencing BTTF) in the streets at the very beginning of Claire’s scenario B, just before reaching the station. Also, I noticed Mr Bean’s (TV comedy character) Mini near the Bus at the beginning of scenario A. Great video 👍
This game brings back memories.
I remember getting resident evil the directors cut and they had an re2 demo packed in with it. Played the hell out of it. Got the full game when it came out. Time sure has flown hasnt it?
Resident Evil 2 Remake is coming for us in less than two months. I have dreamed about this day for so many years...
At the first time i see the re1 remake. I know it this goint to happend
2 days
TODAY IS THE DAY MY FRIENDS!!!
Ever since 2001 i'm guessing xD
BEST RESIDENT EVIL GAME EVER MADE. JUST FINISHED THE FOUR CAMPAIGNS.
5:08 I used to always wonder what was behind that door, too. Thanks for telling us.
You can see a Delorean at the start if Claire's Senario B, you can see it while your walking towards the police station.You can also find Mr.Bean's iconic green car from the show (but its all wrecked) you can see it in Claire and Leon's Scenario A after you get out of the alley full of zombies.The alley that is being blocked by a kendo gunshop truck in Re2 is blocking a location that will be seen in Re3, its the one where you can go up an apartment stairs and get 3 herbs from its balcony,
Some of your easter eggs are extremely informative. I didn’t know at all about the red door 🚪 the gold emblem and the Back to the Future 3 picture, who would’ve thought the developers would include such details!
One more 🍬🐰🌺🥚... When you do enough damage to Birkin in his second form, his original head will try to rise up and return itself to the original position.
U forgot the Brad Vicers zombie. If On hard mode you get to the police station without shooting any zombies, u can fight his zombie in the ally below the RPD entrance.
I've always wondered about that door. Thank you for that
In my recent stream of RE2 I mentioned the RPD gate but didn't remember how to trigger it, and I also mentioned the zombie head but I don't think my version had where you could see the head anyway...
It's nice to see someone who puts a lot of effort in research on these kind of things.
Awesome video man. Funny thing and I swear by this, the part where you mentioned shooting the screen, I had the most random moment ever in RE1 the original where when Jill kicked a zombie's head the face landed right in front of my screen. It was actually the first zombie you meet.
there is another easter egg ive just discovered. In the intro fmv, when claire and leon run away from the bar, you can see written on the store aphex twin richard james d album.
About the shooting the screen, you can also find it in the first resident evil. I'm playing the first 3 games after a long time and I didn't know about this in any of the games, but when I played the Chris scenario during the second fight with the snake which she opens a hole on the ground, in that room there's a camera angle that you can shoot the camera. I gotta say I just stumbled upon your channel at the right time and I'm loving it, but maybe you already covered this in another video. In any case, keep up the good content.
good shit man...that door always had me wondering what was behind it lmao
You mentioned the misspelling ion the lab exit; there's also one on the truck in the basement of the police station, the one you have to move with Ada
Damn it! I forgot about that one!
There's one I remember from the original release of RE 2 for the PSX. Remember the weapon box key you find in the factory? Well if you play as Leon on any playthrough and use the key to get the magnum parts in Umbrella's secret laboratory, they misspell the word magnum for "mugnum" parts.
That door was great.i olways wonder why i think it was in RE3 that says the door knob move but it wont open...it was one of my main question too
No one ever talks about this but i couldnt have been the only one thats noticed. near the beginning in western hallway after the hall you first meet the licker, there is a red double doors that lead to a breifing room with podium up front and seats arranged in front of it. theres also a little room in back with a fireplace you can light to get a red jewel from a painting. the non intended easter egg mistake in the scenery of the main room is the incorrectly upside down American Flag, which erroneously puts the blue square with stars at the end of the flag instead of the top. you can enter this room in RE3 and the flag still has this mistake. Cant hate on it too much though. The backround illustrators for these two games kinda were the some of the best at it in their time so this minor slip ups hardly something to bust their balls about.
wait a minute! 3:47...is that the nemesis on the screen? :O upper left
I'm glad Score PN sent me your way. I'm digging the content so far.
Great video. Thanks for the upload. I was actually expecting the Remake looked like a remastered game, but unfortunately it was not. So I would keep playing the original RE2 game.
Conoscevo già tutti questi easter egg... Ma ho messo lo stesso il like perché fa sempre piacere vedere che si parla ancora nel 2020 del mio gioco preferito anche a più di 20 anni di distanza.
W Resident evil 2
You forgot the locker that Marvin lay down to while in the cutscene. It's kinda blurr but locker named tag is "Jojo" even the director of the game confirmed it. I find it bizarre 😅
Beat me to it
Chillax Suzara he probably didn't forget but it would have been quite the adventure to find it
I was going to make a comment explaining the reference to you, but I see you've already snuck in a joke. Congrats, sir.
Isn't that kinda USELESS to put such a reference?
It's such an awfull reference The World knows about it
Another Easter egg. Killing Mr. X in his 2 ND form with a rocket launcher with Leon will trigger a cutscene
@@Pretzelcoatlus did you kill him prior to the? factory
That jacket in stars office is the alternative costume in re1 director cut original
I was like 11 when I played this game and the door was so obvious to me even then :s Great video btw ^^
For all those that don't see a connection between Resident Evil and Back To The Future, allow me to reveal one!
Apparently Paul Haddad, the original voice actor fro Leon in Resident Evil 2, used Indiana Jones and Marty McFly as inspirations and basis for voicing Leon, stating that he found Leon a brave, but inexperienced, hero who eventually overcomes his difficulties, exactly like Marty McFly.
After seeing this and the results screen video, youve earned yourself a new subscriber
I just discovered your channel you’re awesome dude.
Damn, I've been playing this game for twenty years and didn't know about the hidden camera angle in front of the RPD.
It wasnt just the word elevator that was misspelled, in the version of the game i played last the word "Emergency" was misspelled on the elevator doors themselves.
Here's a few that you should know about. Around the 2:10 mark of this vid you talk about the capcom connection. With the store being named ARUKAS which is SAKURA spelled backwards. Did you know that NEMESIS in RE 3 was based on SAGAT from.....you guessed it the street fighter series. How so you say???? Notice his stance when he holds you by your face, similar to SAGAT face grab and smash. Also, hos running attacks are also based on SAGATS running and shoulder slam attacks. The way he is grabbing a dead BRAD VICKERS in the beginning of the game. Is a direct homage to the way SAGAT holds his defeated opponents after beating them. Also, when you unlock HUNK notice where he is standing at the start of his mission and look closely at the wall next to him and you can see the #4 etched in the wall. One last bonus easter egg to tell you about. The character TOFU was created as a challenge to all those gamers who sent videos of themselves beating the very 1st RE 1 game with nothing but the knife. Before the days of streaming people would make vids of themselves, and sent it to the guys at CAPCOM seeing if they could challenge the gamers. So the development team took their challenge and unleashed TOFU onto the world. Who only yelled in Japanese jibberish, turned purple when poisoned, turned red when when you took too much damage.
You could do the "shoot at the screen" thing in RE1 too. Now, it's been a while since I played it, but the thing was that there were only really like two or three places where you could do it, and certain camera angles are slightly different in the Director's Cut version. That's why you can only shoot at the screen in one of the versions, either the original or the DC. I really don't remember which is it, though.
I do remember that one of the places where you could do it was the hallway where one of the doors led to the "Jill sandwich" trap. Check one of the angles in which your character can point the shotgun directly to the camera. I don't remember if the shotgun is the only gun that works, but it's the one I used to use for this trick.
You mentioned that the Coke inspired vending machines were removed from subsequent ports of the game (which I believe happened to be the Dual Shock version of the game) but what is interesting is that in the Dreamcast version of the game, I think the blue Coke machines are still there! I'll have to dig my copy of the game out to confirm.
Just a fun fact to go along with #8. Parasite Eve 2 (Square 1999) actually had licensed Coke products in game (vending machines, and actual sodas to drink).
After playing the remake demo and watching this vid I really want to play through the original resi 2
He's seriously asking how the gold emblem survived the mansion exploding...
DON'T YOU KNOW HOW ITEM BOXES WORK?
The shooting of the screen is a throwback to another Capcom game, Time Crisis.
