I never noticed that. Dreamcast Steve clearly is based on Leo from the same film. They definitely changed it in CVX to not get sued in all likelihood.

I never really saw the resemblance besides the hair and hairline, Steve's face is different enough sorta. It's weird too because while Jack won over Rose easily, Steve never even got close lmfao

With Alexia, that is new to me. This...makes the Ashford twins even freakier though.

That’s interesting. And I never found her attractive outside of that movie.

I think it's pretty clear he's Leo. Although I'm not entirely sure about Leon. That hairstyle isn't a common thing. I feel like it was at least partially inspired by Leo but the DC Steve is a clear copy of his hair in the mid 90s. Both of these as we know were post Titanic and he was a megastar after that.




I tend to think they based Leon's on Furlong. It's literally a duplicate of his in game model's hair and it's even closer in RE4.

Oh yeah I mean Steve's hair is DEF Leo. Can't argue with that, especially when other games like MGS2 took some clear inspiration from Titanic. But I don't think his face has any resemblance.

I can see that with OG RE2 Leon however, which may make sense with the Terminator esque Mr. X...

I can definitely see Leon in Steve, but it's not explicitly him. It just looks like they loosely inspired the face but 100% copied the hair. The fact Steve was changed in a later release of the same game shows they were worried about getting sued and it has to be for that reason. Like I said Leon is kinda vague, but it's definitely either Leo or Furlong they got the idea from.

I was watching a RE6 stream this morning during my workout. I've forgotten how fucking bad that game is. Terrible fucking level design with the constant puzzles that are hilariously contrived to simply make the two characters do something to open a door over and over. It's too saturated with that.

Both the RE2-3 HD projects both got updates the other day. I upgraded the GC versions that you use with Dolphin and they're excellent looking, but the update is focused on the PC port. That one has upscaled item menu icons while the Dolphin version doesn't. The PC version install is too overly complicated but I'll try it tomorrow.

Here's some screens. The STARS office looks amazing and the STARS sign is visual porn now. Also, the STARS team photo all have visible faces now. Although Wesker looks weird.

Meh, 99% of all "HD" upscales look plastic as fuck.
I'm better off playing the originals in low-res.
Wake me up when these "fans" gonna start usin properly trained AI.

Why does Wesker look like Richard Waugh

It’s possible, but I wouldn’t hold my breath. And with the amount of money I’ve put into updating my old Jill and the Master Team figure, I’m not really looking forward to finding out if they do one. I think I might not even get it, because she would be the lone figure anyway.

They're more likely to Ada honestly. It's the last of the four core characters of RE2. They've already done Leon, Hunk (under a shell company) and Claire.
