Trivia time

The Resident Evil series has been around for quite a long time, and ever since the first game launched in 1996 we've been obsessing over minutiae and mostly-pointless (but fun) trivia. But how much do you remember? Do you know the history of Raccoon City? Do you recall the moment Nemesis' rampage began?

Take a look at our quiz and see how well your knowledge stands up to the test of time.

If you like old PlayStation trivia be sure to check out our Final Fantasy VII edition. We've also done installments on other games as well including Tekken and some great obscure Mario Facts.

And of course, be sure to check out Resident Evil 6 when it launches at the beginning of October.
