History Funny / ResidentEvil2Remake

* Leon will occasionally swear when a zombie will rise, miss a shot, or his gun is empty. In the sewers, when he has to slide down a slope, he will say "Shit" in disgust.

* Another mod is Beach Boy Mr. X! Which [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HX_8YPdkyCQ strips Mr. X down to nothing but]] [[{{Fanservice}} an Umbrella-logo thong, sunglasses and flip-flops]].

* A temporarily Japan exclusive DLC[[note]]The DLC is released worldwide a couple months after the game's initial release.[[/note]] gives the player the choice to use (slightly updated) [[ModelDissonance blocky, low-poly character models]] from the original PS game as costumes for Leon and Claire. As you might have reckoned, these models combined with the significantly more lifelike character animation look quite surreal.

* In case you were wondering, yes, you can shoot Mr. X's hat off. Then things go [[MoodWhiplash right back]] to NightmareFuel when you suddenly realize he is now '''[[TurnsRed running towards you in a]] [[BerserkButton berserk]] [[UnstoppableRage rage]]'''.

** The PlayStation gameplay stream confirms that is PRECISELY what they meant, from the developer's mouth, as the player picks up a healing spray from one of the stalls.

* Another mod [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HX_8YPdkyCQ strips Mr. X down to nothing but]] [[{{Fanservice}} an Umbrella-logo thong, sunglasses and flip-flops]].

* The fight with G-2 requires the player to use a crane holding onto a large metal crate to swing it right into him. However, It's completely possible for the player to bungle this and be on the receiving end of their own trap resulting in a game over. While morbid it is somewhat amusing. Capcom later revealed that in a statistical analysis of in-game accomplishments, a whopping ''78%'' of players smashed themselves with the crane, with 64% of that being from a first playthrough, meaning there are still ''14%'' of the player-base somewhere who got [[HoistByHisOwnPetard hoist by their own petards]] more than once.

** Mr. X will always come after you no matter what you throw at him, but the minute you whip out a rocket launcher, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rh9AfN78-mI he will casually turn around and walk away.]]

* Players will likely run into another bit of self-derived BlackComedy exploring the morgue, as one of the cabinets will contain a corpse in the middle of [[RiseFromYourGrave violently convulsing and undergoing zombification]]. There is probably a not-inconsequential number of players who would have seen this halfway through pulling the cabinet slab out, who then immediately shoved it back closed while thinking to themselves, [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere "woahfuckthatshit".]]

** All Tofus spend the mode talking to Nighthawk in their native Japanese language no matter what language you set the voices too. The funny comes in that Nighthawk's dialogue remains unchanged from the HUNK scenario so no matter how much Tofu yells at him in [[KansaiRegionalAccent Kansai dialect Japanese]], Nighthawk seems to understand him perfectly. Such [[{{Omniglot}} training.]]

** When G-Birkin is ''finally'' taken down, his train car is sent skidding backwards into the flames, as he roars in pain from having his eye impaled earlier...but then stops abruptly as the camera cuts to [[OhCrap his eye widening in shock.]] It's almost as if he's saying "[[ThisIsGonnaSuck Wait a minute...ahh, shit!]]" before promptly exploding.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rh9AfN78-mI Mr. X reconsiders the situation.]]

** In the same vein as the Licker in the middle west hall, if you shoot the Licker before its scripted animation, then it will ''die immediately'' after it's scripted animation ends. Even funnier if you have the infinite Rocket launcher.

** If you flip the 3D model around, you'll see that the licker also has a protruding lump of flesh in it's groin resembling a penis. A tiny penis no less.

* Last but not least, there's a GameMod [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvycaBOUIvo which makes the game]] [[NintendoHard balls-to-the-wall hard]] by replacing '''[[BossInMookClothing every]] [[BossGame enemy with]] [[UpToEleven Mr. X himself]]''' [[UnwinnableByDesign regardless of which difficulty setting you've selected]] and it can give [[VideoGame/SeriousSam Serious Sam 3: BFE's]] CopyProtection a run for it's money!

** Even better: [[FailedASpotCheck the plexiglass window he's banging on is broken]].

* Near the end of the true ending, Leon, Claire, and Sherry see an incoming truck, and Leon tries to figure out if the driver is friendly or hostile. [[FlippingTheBird The driver just flips him off as he passes by]], leading to Leon quipping "Well, [[DeapanSnarker he was friendly]]..."

* Near the end of the true ending, Leon, Claire, and Sherry see an incoming truck, and Leon tries to figure out if the driver is friendly or hostile. [[FlippingTheBird The driver just flips him off as he passes by]], leading to Leon quipping "Well, [[BlatantLies he was friendly]]..."

** Take note that Claire is only seven years older than Sherry, making her an AbsurdlyYouthfulMother.

* Many fans were left scratching their head as to [[RiddleForTheAges just whose picture Jill kept on her desk]] in the original game, which Leon and Claire speculated was her boyfriend, and Jill herself offers no comment on at all when she visits the office in ''[=RE3=]''. In the remake, the photo on her desk is finally visible, and it shows [[spoiler:a big, friendly-looking dog]], which apparently (at least, we ''hope'') is the creative team's way of saying "[[WriterCopOut Never mind. Look, we're sorry we even brought it up.]]"

* In the remake's reveal trailer, we get a sudden, random shot of a bathroom. It's almost as if, after 20 years of enduring the "R.P.D. has no bathroom" meme, this was Capcom's way of saying, "''There'', it finally has a bathroom. Happy now?"
** The PlayStation gameplay stream confirms that is PRECISELY what they meant, from the developer's mouth, as the player picks up a healing spray from one of the stalls.
** What's more, all the toilets in the bathroom are clogged and overflowing. One can't help but feel that Capcom was {{trolling|Creator}} us a bit.
* A meta example. Ada's new appearance in the remake has caused many fans to quip that she looks like a rich Asian mom.

* The remake also isn't afraid of establishing Leon's DeadpanSnarker traits when he and Ada stare down a dark tunnel leading into the sewers with no idea what's in store for them.

* In case you were wondering, yes, you can shoot Mr. X's hat off. Then things go [[MoodWhiplash right back]] to NightmareFuel when you suddenly realize he is now '''running towards you in a [[BerserkButton berserk rage]]'''.

* When Leon takes the G-Virus sample (from the ''unlocked'' case, by the way), he quips [[TemptingFate "That was easy."]] Not ten seconds later, the self-destruct system designed to keep the G-Virus from leaving the lab without proper authorization activates. His reaction doesn't show it, but Leon's probably thinking to himself "Fucking seriously!?".

* Youtube user DPO23 has done a number of videos on the PC version of the game [[GameMod modded to]] ramp up the characters' facial animations to 500%. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTvqsXWTlVY The result, if you're]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEZW91Vowz8 not bothered by facial horror]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MZs-C2fFmk is pure hilarity and turns an otherwise scary game into a cartoonish, emotive dark comedy.]] Especially Leon's concerned face in the first video, which ended up becoming a meme in itself.
* Speaking of mods, we all knew this one was coming: Fuck waitin' for you to get it on your own, ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svWFk7h0OdM X GON' DELIVER TO YA!]]''
* Another mod [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HX_8YPdkyCQ strips Mr. X down to nothing but an Umbrella-logo thong, sunglasses and flip-flops]].
* Another [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wY1FnQ9ygg turns him into Thomas The Tank Engine]], complete with matching soundtrack. Your character freaking out at the sight of it just makes the whole thing even funnier.

* Since ''[=REmake2=]'' along with the ''Resident Evil'' series are BannedInChina, the sellers [[https://www.reddit.com/r/residentevil/comments/aln1c5/remake2_is_banned_in_china_so_the_sellers_got/ got creative in order to circumvent the ban and get the game past the radar]]. They do so by making a hand-drawn cover and using cipher titles such as "My first day of work in a police department" (我來警察局上班第一天) and "Beating a Dead Horse 2" (炒冷飯2) in order to get past the ban.

* A meta one: the official Resident Evil Twitter [[MemeAcknowledgment acknowledged the "Mr X. Gon Give It to Ya!" meme]] during the release of the '98 costumes. See it [[https://twitter.com/RE_Games/status/1096454310152601600 here]].

* At one point, you run into a very fat cop pathetically banging away at a snack machine, almost as if to say that he's got one hell of a sweet tooth ''even in un-death''. Better yet, he only attacks if you attack him, meaning its perfectly fine to just ignore you.
** Even better: [[FailedASpotCheck the plexiglass window is broken]].

* This also goes straight to NightmareFuel territory, but the fact that somebody at Capcom had put in the effort to give the Licker model a fully rendered butthole. That's right, those skinless freaks have ''buttholes'' now!
