X functions similar to Resident Evil 3’s Nemesis, both serve as a relentless, immovable force that you must avoid at all cost before it kills you. Although Raccoon City looks gorgeous (thanks to continuous improvements to the RE Engine) and has its fair share of nightmarish alleyways, its scare appeal is nowhere near the level of consistency as the police department.

Meanwhile, the sprawling Raccoon City streets of RE3 are wider and more liberating. The setting of the Raccoon City Police Department in RE2 is atmospheric, claustrophobically narrow, and overall creepy in nature.
