GamesOtherScience gone wrong1968 to 1999

Umbrella's flagship weapon and the final boss of the first Resident Evil. Tyrants are engineered super-soldiers, far removed from the shambling victims of the t-Virus, though Wikipedia's plot summaries still call Mr. X a 'Tyrant zombie'. The line produced the series' most famous monsters, Mr. X and Nemesis.1234
