Like Resident Evil 2, The X-Files: Resist or Serve enables gamers to play the game once through as either character and then through it again as the other. Mulder is more of a man of action, fighting and shooting his way through things, while Scully approaches things as a scientist, examining patients and collecting facts. Players have the instant choice of selecting the playable character Mulder or Scully, each character having his and her own specialties. A very good thing, given the horde of clumsy Resident Evil-style mechanical problems that fly in your face. So, right away, a sense of authenticity is established. It stars the likeness of both Duchovny and Anderson with decent respectability, and both characters' likenesses are fully backed by their own voices. In getting things right this time, VU Games hired X-Files writer Tom Schnauz (who wrote on the last two years of the series) to pen the story, which fits neatly between season 6 and 8 in the long-running series.

My son and I watched the series religiously all the way to the final episode and though I didn't rush out to buy this game, I was eager to get to grips with it. But that doesn't mean that X-Files fanatics aren't still around, they're just sort of sitting there smoldering, waiting.

GameplayVU Games' survival-horror game has arrived very late in the game, a few years in fact after the final episode of the show, which incidentally had faded quite rapidly after the so-so movie and Duchovny and Anderson had all but left the show. But without a doubt, developer Black Ops has created a true-to-the-series, fan-centric game steeped in X-Files lore and, despite its failures, is an endearing survival-horror endeavor that plays like one of the better X-Files episodes. The result? The X-Files: Resist or Serve is, without question, a shameless Resident Evil clone carrying all of the best and worst implications of that formula.

Needless to say, that videogame premiere flopped.Learning from its vast mistakes, Vivendi Universal Games and Fox Interactive got a lot of things right for this new X-Files, from the voice acting, story writing and settings, to actually obtaining the full rights to the likenesses of both Jillian Anderson and David Duchovny as lead characters in the game.

The two star actors from the eponymous TV series were not the central characters in that game, nor did they appear for more than say, 5-10 minutes - and the cheesy FMV adventure was one measly step away from pure stink. The PlayStation debut of The X-Files in 1999 was a real crapshoot - and that was just if you wanted to catch a glimpse of Fox Mulder or Dana Scully.
