Resident Evil/Funny
While the Resident Evil series has plenty of Narm, there are intentionally funny moments too.
- Resident Evil 1, immediately after Chris and Rebecca defeat the Man-Eating Plant by poisoning its roots.
Chris: "We got to the ROOT of the problem!" |
- Resident Evil 2 has a moment where Leon catches up to Femme Fatale Ada Wong, and attempts to make conversation. Keep in mind Leon is wearing a blue police uniform with insignia everywhere and the giant letters R.P.D. emblazoned on his back.
Leon: "Ada, I don't think I've introduced myself yet. My name's Leon; I'm with the RPD." |
- Another funny moment is in the N64 version of the game. Rebecca has a report about Billy Coen being dead, but she mispells his name 'Koen.'
- There are hidden scenes in Resident Evil Code: Veronica where if Steve goes back to Claire during his scene she dials the snark Up to Eleven.
"Do you want me to take care of this for you, little boy?" |
- While Resident Evil Gaiden is... well, not a good game, and is ignored by the rest of the series, it does contain one golden moment of hilarity (hopefully intentional), when Leon is confronted by a bunch of Umbrella guards with MP5s.
Guards: "Get back! This is your only warning! Do not approach the submarine!" |
Salazar: I've sent my right hand to dispose of you. |
Luis: "Let me guess. She's the President's daughter?" |
- A moment of unintended hilarity can happen with Luis if you're wearing Leon's first alternate costume:
Luis: You a cop? |
- Jump off a ladder (don't catch Ashley) and aim at her, or perform a suplex and land under Ashely, and she'll call you a pervert and cover up her skirt.
- Made even better when Leon dies under her, she'll be calling pervert when it fades into "You died" screen.
- In the island military base, there's an oven containing a Ganado. Most first-time players won't know what to do (and take double-damage if the fan-nicknamed "Oven Man" grabs them), but those expecting should step back immediately as soon as Oven Man bursts through. He dies of his own burns shortly.
- Jump off a ladder (don't catch Ashley) and aim at her, or perform a suplex and land under Ashely, and she'll call you a pervert and cover up her skirt.
- Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles gives us this exchange between Leon and Krauser, stuck in a huge, flooding room with zombies, infected piranha and Hunter Gammas:
Krauser: "It's dark, it's wet, there's monsters..." |
- Resident Evil 3: Nemesis has this line, made even funnier by inconsistency:
Carlos: I know, you want to ask me out. All the foxy ladies love my accent. It drives them crazy. |
- And:
Carlos: Just so you know, I'm not into the whole pain is pleasure thing. |
- Barry Burton's alternate costume for Mercenaries 3D. It's Chris's warrior outfit, recolored to be red, white, and blue.
- From the blooper track for Degeneration:
Leon: "There's one thing I need to tell you guys:" |
- There's also this gem.
Leon: Angela. |
- Never reject Claire.
- While Your Mileage May Vary on Quint and Keith, this troper actually preferred a slight bit of comic relief from the two, even during the "invisible Hunters" battle.
- "Me and my sweet ass are on the way!"
- A particularly cringeworthy funny moment in Resident Evil 5: during the first battle with Wesker, he may at certain points suddenly shout "Your future HINGES upon this fight!" and then literally punch you through a door.
