Un-like some of the games in the series (RE0,RE2,RE4), the original was never completely scrapped for an entirely new version. However, it underwent some interesting changes along the way. Many of these were seen by the public before the game came out through magazines and even a few videos, shown to you on the left and below. A two page advertisement featured the top two images, which were both interesting. One had Jill reading a message on the 2F hallway wall, similar to the room before Kenneth and the balcony. The message was never revealed, but it certainly was creepy looking. The other showed Chris shooting a zombie in the gallery back room, however the highlight here is the S.T.A.R.'s member lying dead on the floor. It actually looks a bit like Barry, which shows just how much the plot may have evolved. Even more interesting, the ad mentioned the exploration of a guard/light tower.

Other differences were seen in some import ads for the game before it even hit Japan, like the Yawn fight in the shed. Two zombies were also seen in the dining room, which didn't contain the wooden shield like the final. Many different views, a different inventory menu, green blood, a two player mode and quite a few left out items - which you can see to the left. If this is too much to imagine from a game you've grown entirely used to, do yourself a favor and watch the two videos below. I'm sure you'll be just as amazed as I was the first time I saw how much the game evolved.
