"Sorry about that babe" walks up to leon
LMAO maybe he thought leon was pretty enough to pass for a chick?
😂😂😂😂😂 stop I’m dead
I am so glad someone finally hinted at Kendo's Claire dialogue. I used to quote him and people thought I was just misquoting him.
"Now sucks my dick" thats will be good intro for RE g4y porn
Leon: what going on
Kendo: no clue girlie
Leon: *RAPES KENDO*
kendo: AAAA AAA AAAA
Leon: SHUT UP your gonna make it fine but I'm coming back for you *ties kendo to waist* *jumps on train to escape raccoons city*
Actually his biggest mistake was not pulling down the metal fence down by the window. Or even installing a metal fence on the window in the first place.
Mr. Badguy wasn’t that car supposed to block that window
Well we know that failed since they came through the window like nobody's business and killed Kendo. Which is why he needed the fence in the first place.
I think the fatal mistake was standing by the fucking window while we walked around the shop rather than standing behind the counter.
Kylesico912x extremely true
Mr. Badguy
Every gun shop should have at least some shutters or metal gates for closing store or for against stealing.
Legend has it, that Kendo is still fighting off the undead horde in hell, some say he was the original Doom Guy.
Henry Estrada How fucking cool would it be if there was a connection?
I got doom for the 32x and I think your right, looks just like him
@@carlozduerson1368 😆😆😆😆
Plausible
The original Robert model has thar very distinct square shaped head and jawline. Also, a very fierce face.
2:33 "killing him instantly" *screams in agony*
Lmfaoooo
I died laughing, he literally died so miserable, he was like... AUGHHH!!! AUGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Kendo died the most horrible agonizing way possible, slow bitten mosquito of death instead of a quick death killed by a licker
My respects to the Kendo Brothers, seriouslly, they practically developed all the guns used for the S.T.A.R.S force, every menber haved its own customized Samurai Edge, so non of them are equal to another, all of them are unique, heck, even Wesker still use his Samurai Edge in RE 5 showing that those Handguns where the best.
David Bravo True, but Wesker was using that Samurai Edge to give Chris a BIG in your face “Fuck You.”
The Samurai Edge was basically a "brigadier" slide and some other dress up parts. It's my favorite 9, but all in all it's not that different to other versions of the M9/92/F/S
FINAL FANTASY CLASSICO We’re on a video game video talking about video game things and you’re complaining?
@@Spiderman-92k What the hell is this comment?
FINAL FANTASY CLASSICO soo like is he a nerd or does he fuck nerds?
"He's eating him!"
...
"Are you alright?"
Yeah he's fine. He'll walk it off later...when he reanimates...
Who are ya?! What are you doing here!?
Hold your fire I'm a human!
OkamiBlaze672 0_O *breaths* sorry about that, I thought you were one of them.
What's going on in this town?
OkamiBlaze672 0_O Hold on *locks door*. I don't have a clue, by the time I noticed something was wrong the entire city was infested with zombies
*walks away*
Imagine just how scary this would be in real life with that background track actually playing
"You know what's more terrifying then zombies? Every where I go I keep hearing music but I can't figure out where its coming from!"
I'm glad we get to give Robert a fighting chance in the REmake
No we don't he kills himself.._..Oh wait the dlc.._.Yeah that a what if.._.Not cannon
@@moodyowlproductions4287 I was gonna say that lol
@@amyschildgamerlive4519 well..go on then...say it
@@moodyowlproductions4287 rather not repeat someone else's words lol but Robert does get more characterization in the remake for sure!
@@amyschildgamerlive4519 It's still pretty short tho would've loved if he and his daughter joined up with leon to escape racoon city and probably have have a unfortunate end.
these 90s RE gameplay/art/stories still scare the crap outta me
ᴍʀ. ᴋᴇɴᴅᴏ ᴡᴀs ᴍʏ ɴɪɢɢᴀ (Rest In Power)
I had no idea kendo had all this back story 🤔 i thought he is just random gun shop guy dies at the beginning of RE2
Some of it are from the comics. However the comics seems to fit nicely on the story.
Capcom deleted a lot of stuff from the final game, they probably gave the go-ahead for the stories to be used in the comics.
Same
Probably don't read any of the lore in games, so that's why you don't know.. people just ignore texts in games. Refusing to read letters, documents, etc.. that's why so many people have to watch these lore videos relying on someone else to read it all for them and explain it watered down so they can understand it all..
Now he runs his own UA-cam gun review channel lol.
Never got how no zombie broke that window before
Because plot demands.
Duke Magus because you lured the zombie to his shop.
Because he'd never left his post behind the counter before. 🤷🏻♂️
The gunshop was probably quiet up until Leon and Clair fought their way to his gun shop guns blazing. That most likely attracted a lot of unwarranted attention from the zombies. We meet Kendo standing behind the counter gun at the ready with what looks to be a recent wound on his forearm which could be a bite but we'll never know. As a kid I always thought Robert was the truck driver because he too had gotten bit on the forearm in the same place as Robert.
Krakenfels In a sense, the player inadvertently caused Robert's death. I mean There's pretty much no where to go with all the debris and barricades all over the place. Claire was extremely lucky to find gunshop's door unlocked.
The real story here is that, he died and its all your fault.
Nope he dint in remake and real timeline goes through remake and although umm both re2 and re2 remake re3 and re3 remake are same but some timeline it has been changed and camcomp said re4 will be the final remake and remakes are same they are not remastered so both follow the timeline
Actually, no. It is all an accident by negligence, because:
A) nobody forced Kendo to stay near the windows, it was his carelessness and negligence, which ties into the next point;
B) Kendo could've rolled down some shutters(assuming he had them, because he is a shop-owner and those are a necessity, if you are one), which would have provided an extra barrier; C) Even assuming, that it was Leon/Claire, who led the zombies to the store (which is not necessarily the case), neither of them does so with intent.
@@ronrocker7131 Yeah, PLUS Kendo was already injured, if that on his arm was a bite he got... You know what's gonna happen! Dude's gonna turn anyway.
Also it doesn't make ANY sense how the zombies just break through the Windows with NO warning!!!
They were not even there hitting the windows, so how did they suddenly break it??? That scene should have been better elaborated but idk if there was enough space for that considering the limitations.
Robert Kendo,a gun shop owner,should have known in advance to install a metal pull down shutters . Every privet citizen shop owner knows to buy those to protect their businesses and since Robert did not buy one for his shop,THAT was his fatal mistake that ended his life,had he bought metal shutters,there would be a FAR FAR better chance he would have lived the night...until the Nukes dropped,haha!! Robert doesn't like the type that join Clair and Leon,running all night??
Well I mean it was the 90s, and Racoon City was a smallish American city. Crime is probably not common there.
@@Freedom21stCenturi It's weird, it's a smallish city, but it's also made up of more then just the city, I think the Arklay mountains also count as part of Raccoon city right? Or at least the main county.
@@Freedom21stCenturi well the reason Umbrella helped to create the STARS Teams was to deal with the increase in crime as they were expanding the city and hiring additional officers.
Before the apocalypse, he was the only protection his shop needed because he was like this badass or something and people didn't mess with him.
My Mind is blown! I never knew all this about Robert :o
Brittany Moore me to wow thanks for the video score pn 👍
Amazing!
I almost forgot about how flirty/creepy Kendo was with Claire lol.
Flirty? Yes. Creepy? Not really. He didn't do anything.
The resident evil videos are my favorite ones by far, keep them coming!!!!
I liked how you filled the original silence in the beginning of the cutscene with the police station basement music. Besides, great research as always. 2018 and classic RE is alive + kicking^^
New Resident Evil Save Room Music the basement is so creepy, what a game bro !
Yep, I just hope they polish the classic score for the RE2make instead of using flat action music.
New Resident Evil Save Room Music totally, i really like the remake Of RE1 But they should keep the original music, hope They keep it for 2 and 3.
Let's hope they produce a remake of 3 as well in the first place!
@@SurvivalSpheresI come from the future to tell you they did, and sadly it was meh.
R.I.P. to the GOAT, Chris Redfield wouldn’t have one shot every boss in the Re5 cutscenes without ‘em 👍
The female zombie could be his daughter just like in the re 2 remake
She was supposed to be Rebecca Chambers sister
Robert Kendo is seen in RE2 remake and RE3 Remake, since those games happen at the same time, you can see him taking care of "his business", he is unfriendly with Leon and Ada, but really friendly with Jill and Carlos.
You can Play Robert Kendo Story as "The ghost survivor" in RE2 remake like as "what if" could happen if he survives.
The family zombie you mention was his daughter, you can see her in RE2 remake and RE3 remake.
A gun store would probably be one of the best places to ride out a zombie apocalypse... since, in real life, they're required to have some kind of reinforced bars or roll-down shutters to prevent burglary.
Yeah, except, there would be A SHIT-TON of people trying to get a gun at your store. At first, they would probably try to buy fair and square, and you would probably do business with them, because, you probably wouldn't believe a zombie apocalypse has begun, - and, hey there's good money to be made! - but it wouldn't be too long, before people started smashing and grabbing stuff in panic. Also, factor in the chance, that a zombie could randomly pop up nearby, and stir shit up even more. SO... No, it wouldn't be the best place. Not initially. Afterwards, perhaps. But not initially.
Thank you kendo for your heroic sacrifice...and thanks for the shotgun haha
"Zombies break through the window killing him instantly before he can do anything" Well to be fair, they kinda just walked through the window xD
"glass wall"
its called a *window*
Man you always do all your research when you do these videos excellent job bro
@ 0:43 I admired the guy for simply calling them out for what they are... "zombies." Leon would refuse to say it. It's like saying the word was taboo. Thank you, Robert Kendo.
The remake probably made it that the corpse is his daughter, also didnt bullets refereed to kendo in some games
I always loved how the N64 version had that extra file in it
@@archherobain3934 it has, N64 have plenty of files that doesn't appear in any other version
What a champ! Stays open until Leon/Claire arrive and sold all of his weapon and ammo's to citizens so they could armed themselves.
Keep up the great content! You killing it with these kind of Resident Evil videos. There isn't really much content on stuff like this & the comics on youtube. You really stand out in content & it's much appreciated!
THIS is a fantastic find. I never really knew much of Robert until now. Just thought of him as some random guy in RE2. Thanks for the info. 😎
That female zombie looks too much like Rebecca
I thought the same thing
Blackjack 335 that’s what I was thinking!She looked so familiar
The ran out of clothing ideas for pedestrian zombies. Still fun to see though!
I will never understand how he was not killed before having such a large window
It took me about 10 times playing this game to realize he gets one shot off before he goes down. The sound effect gets so lost in the loud crashing of the window
REmake 2 is such a love letter to the original fans. The female zombie at 8:14 is found in the area outside of where the burning helicopter puzzle is.
Different Easter egg. That zombie and a male zombie are locked behind a door where you get the Shamrock key. The Easter egg is a call back to the infamous zombie door cutscene in the original
Now after years we know that -that female zombie that died with Kendo was going to be his daughter.
That female zombie is actually Rebecca Chambers sister Samantha Chambers
@@katherinemcbride582 source?
From what I can tell, Joe Kendo is indeed alive. In Resident Evil 4, Leon's starting handgun is called the Silver Ghost. The Silver Ghost has an engraving on its slide saying "Kendo Custom Shop." On the Resident Evil Wiki page about the Silver Ghost, it is stated that Joe Kendo did indeed design and build the gun as requested by Leon. There's a link at the bottom of the page under "Sources" that leads to an article explaining more about the Silver Ghost. Leon requested Joe Kendo to make a custom tactical handgun as part of his preparation to go on his mission to rescue Ashley Graham. Joe showcased the Silver Ghost to Leon and Leon was impressed by his design. Leon was even the one that named the gun "Silver Ghost." If this information is credible, then Joe Kendo is indeed still alive in the Resident Evil universe.

God Bless You
I like to think that the weapons found throughout the game are the weapons Kendo handed out to other survivors.
Hey ScorePN, it's good to finally talk with you. I happen to be a fan of your works in terms of the original Resident Evil series. Mostly on the facts that you were able to look up and put together from the way you did the videos. Honestly I'm glad to be a fan of yours and hoped to hear more coming from you soon. Your narration also help send a chill down my spine and I LOVE it. Keep up the good work. I hoped to see more soon.
Thank you for the video! I always love hearing the RE lore, but in too scared to actually play RE1 - RE3 myself! I love watching your videos for this info!!!! Thank you for these videos!
One of my favorite channels for Resident Evil content you are the best keep up the perfect work man!
This was my first Resident Evil game. They way he says, “zombies” is burned into my brain tissues.
josh bentley83 ZOMbies
I love how u narrate all about resident evil. u are a true resident evil fan... luv ur voice too
Geez I can't stop binge watching these lore vids. Good job on the videos
In the remake what if story, he actually survived the raccoon city incident.
Yeah, but that's a "what if?" story, not canon.
I can’t wait for 4K kendo!!!
Well, we don't know if he died but man he suffered so much more this time.
Oh boy you have no idea
i keep on cutting his scene after seing it once 😫
It would've been awesome if Kendo survived and fought the undead alongside Leon, Claire, Ben, Sherry and Ada.
Why do you keep saying they were ‘seeking refugee’ its refuge lol
Hey my man! Robert’s brother is alive and well, he designed Leon’s handgun in RE4
I wonder if the girl with Kendo was to be his daughter. Those who have played RE 2 Remake know of a similar story that may be a reference to the original plan?
Probably,
I really like how you delve in and bring to light these details. I think it's these details that flesh out a good game. Backstory and details are crucial imo. That's what was so fucking brilliant about the early Silent Hill games.
So much more potential mystery to explore and find out about. Can make a horror game much creepier.
*Man is being eaten alive* Leon: Hey are you alright?
That is strange in the cut scene at the beginning of the game if you look closely at his arm it's the same guy at the gas station
Another great video,love delving into the classic games and the stories they have to offer.
I'm pretty sure robert's brother is gleefully flashing at random "strangers" selling and customizing weapons for those sweet pessetas.
0:36 he walks up, locks the door, standing next to a handsome rookie cop, with a shot gun in hand.
It’s gonna get weird Leon.
2 years old but I laughed my ass off 🤣🤣
Your videos about RE are awesome! Keep it up!
wow, all these years I did not know about this. Thanks for sharing.
great video, like that you added files to the video. *note* The part with kendo at the deck, in place of Chief Irons, makes me wonder if he was just a spite for another person (meaning Chief Irons since it wasn't complete ) always the chance he was meant to be there. Only a theory of course.
To think that the gun owner was more heroic than the Police Chief
Leon : "Hey, are you alright"
Lmao. Ya bruh, just a scratch.
Great video. I been binging your resident evil videos and been enjoying them and learning more about the lore.
I always laugh at 0:18 "HOLD YOUR FIRE! I'M A HUMAN!"
Took me back AND gave me some new information. Good stuff.
Excellent video! Hats off to the Kendo brothers.
You have a talent bro I enjoy watching these clips very educational
I wish no time to mourn was canon...
Leon: Hey are u alright?
Kendo: yeah, just laying here dead getting shred to pieces by the zombies, you know just chilling.
my brother always thought his injury was a cut from the glass rather than a bite but I always thought it was a bit
I feel like this video needs remade with the remakes of RE 1 and 2 in mind. such a great character I always wondered about.
So many stories in Raccoon City. I've found myself becoming more and more invested in the scenarios regarding the many Residents who lived their day to day lives. Ever since I played RE2, some of RE3 and more of the games after RE4, I began to realise that Raccoon City was they life blood of the RE series. And that even in The Resident Evil Outbreak games, it continues to reveal the lives of the few lucky survivors who managed to survive the three day nightmare.
Even as we move beyond RE7, the series will always be tied to the tragic events that took place in that once peaceful city.
I love all your mortal kombat and RE: videos !!!!!!
Me: i would like a rocket launcher with infinite ammo please.
Kendo: that will be 999 quadrillion dollars.
One of the memorable cutscene with Re3 soundtracks such as meeting brad and the city of ruin could be so impressive . Well done .
Btw , have you made top 10 resident evil ?
Love the videos and also, it's amazing to see more on how you share this information with us. Thanks.
Great vid bro! i was really amazed knowing these facts about him.
and also, i remember playing resident evil revelations 2 barry burton's campaign and one of his primary weapons is the "samurai's edge", i smiled knowing the origin of the gun that he used in that game.
These videos are very interesting. Keep them coming!
I love how he pumps the shotty, gets the answer from Leon and pumps the shotty again.
You make the best RE videos, keep it up!
with all due respect to the franchise..i love RE2 with all of my childhood but when i was playing it as a kid i always thought it was reckless and asinine not barricading that glassed window in the kendo gunshop
I’ll never forget how ridiculous the sound of footsteps were in old resident evil games 😂
3:38 "hey...are you alright?" 🤣😂😂😂
From not owning a memory card for my PS2 i mustve played that opening scene a 100 times
I always thought that the truck driver ran into the gun store after crashing for shelter lol
We're all goin down to ol' man Bobby Kendo's place after school dressed as zombies to cause a ruckus! You in?
I just finished watching a few videos and I am amazed you deserve a like and a subscribe
Wow I had no idea! 25 years later I keep learning more stuff about the REs that o grew up with!
For such a minor character, Robert Kendo was actually quite intriguing. Didn't know half the backstory you told on him just now, so thanks, ScorePN.
One thing that always threw me for a loop all these years since RE2 came out was how easily the glass wall to his shop broke, even after four zombies putting pressure on it all at once, and Robert's shotgun did nothing to push them back, besides. ... So I just find it hard to believe that so many citizens were flocking to Robert's shop in the days before RE2 to get guns for protection, and yet the zombies were never drawn to the shop en masse to break into it all that time, like they did when Leon/Claire arrived. I guess you could say the outbreak hadn't really set in that badly yet up until three or four days before RE2? That all that many zombies were on the streets to be drawn to all the activity in Robert's shop with everyone grabbing guns?
Yeah, I know I am over-analyzing, there, but it still bugs me just a little.
Anyways, RIP, Robert Kendo. You seemed like a pretty cool guy, even with the slightly sexist attitude toward Claire when she popped into your shop. =P ("Sorry about that, BABE." .... "I ain't got no clue, DARLIN'.")
thank you for the amazing video !you are my hero
The RE lore is so good, even the smallest detail, a gun shop owner, has his place.
I've never seen an American gunshop, jewelry store, pawnshop, or cannabis disensary that didn't have bars on the windows and visibly armed employees.
Even in the 1990s?
this is raccoon City and not Detroit or LA
Duncan Harrell specially in the 90s
Detective work, nicely done.
I'm glad Ben the reporter gets a shout out here. He is the most baffling person in these games. "I'm so scared of a monster that I'm gonna wait in this jail cell and die of thirst in a few days instead of leaving with a trained police officer"... And the irony is that the monster get him anyway, lol. Oopsie!
After seeing what's happened to every other cop, I'd take my chances with the jail cell as well lol Think about it, going outside means you're facing hordes of zombies that will eat you alive, and if you take the sewers, you'll be facing instant death with the Giant alligator or the giant tarantulas (O.o)
@@ScorePN yeah, but dying of thirst is said to be one of the most painful ways to die. Im certain Ben didn't know about alligator or spiders in the sewer, since he either would not have told them to escape that way, or he would have warned them. He always had the option to end it all with a bullet to avoid being painfully eaten. I mean if he was intent on giving up he should have just had Leon kill him right there in the cell! I mean I would have risked it all for Ada. She's hot!! ;)
Great video! Always fun to learn more about the different characters in the Resident Evil series! :3
I really love your videos about resident evil comics,chars.. etc... or dino crisis keep it up
Bro, awesome video!!!
Score you gotta cover Barry seeing that psychiatrist! That scenario alone would have made a great RE game.
I really hope we'll see more of him in RE3 Remake. at least, in RE2 remake, he's still alive
