Resident Evil fansite REhorror.net has done some online sleuthing like a collection of Internet matlocks to discover what looks to be a potential new addition to the Resi universe hidden in the official site of the upcoming Umbrella Chronicles game. The above shot is from a desktop wallpaper which was lying dormant in the official site's root archive, waiting to be unearthed like some rare kind of fossil, a fossil with a mysterious power to whip up a nerdy frenzy as the RE fancore descend into speculative nonsense.
I don't know what the die-hards are all making of this, but I do know that REhorror is claiming he looks like Morpheus D. Duvall from Dead Aim. They rule out his inclusion as a possibility, however, due to the fact he was apparently killed in 2002 while Wesker's scenario in Umbrella Chronicles takes place in 2003. Mind you ... when has something as inconsequential as complete annihilation ever stopped them?
Whether this is noteworthy or not, a new official US site for Resident Evil is up and running, and that is a thing that is interesting, so check it out or I'll kill you.

And he looks down right German.
That's just racist man . . .
Yeah, I'd buy that too. Maybe a new version of that Tyrant series with Nemesis abilities or greater?
