| STARTING A MISSION |
Begin by loading the Resident Evil 2 game pak into your Nintendo 64 control deck. When you turn the power on, the title/game mode screen appears. Move the control stick up or down or press the +Control Pad up or down to highlight the options, and press the A or Z button to select.
LOAD GAME
Select Load Game to restart a previously saved game, see the "saving/loading" section on page 12 for more.
NEW GAME
Start a new game from the beginning. Move the control stick left or right or press the +Control Pad left or right to highlight your choice and press the A or Z Button to select:
NORMAL MODE - Play Resident Evil 2 at a normal difficulty level.
EASY MODE - Play a beginner's version of Resident Evil 2 which gives you more amo and makes enemies weaker.
After selecting your game mode, you'll set the intensity level (use the same controls as above):
VIOLENCE - Set low, middle, or high.
BLOOD - Choose blue, green, or red.
CHARACTER
When starting a new game, you can choose either Leon or Claire as your character.
After playing through the game and completing it once, load the last saved data to start the "B" scenerio (which appears as "***B"). Now you will automatically play again as the opposite character to reveal new puzzles and events.
(See the section "Starting the 2nd Mission" on page 13.)
