Oh, forgot about that. I'm not sure if it's a glitch or just the way they designed the game. Probably the way they designed the game.

On the topic of RE2, Capcom stated they're now working on a remake, which have been requested by fans for a while now. If it's like the RE1 remake it might be good, especially if they do it like the HD port and have your choice of tank controls or the refined controls they added for that version. If it's like some of their newer crap it's gonna suck hardcore.
