THE RING, By ADK.
Final Version :
Hi, here is a walkthrough for a Resident Evil like. The Ring stays a particular
game with its own originality. This walkthrough is now complete and i hope you
will appreciate it.
1.1 : was not a viable version but just a call for help, thanks to everyone who
help me or read me.
1.2 : Major updates were realised since i finished the game. First new weapons
appeared, one new character also appeared and minor update in the part 1 of the
walkthrough. Last, part 2 is now available.
1.3 : I added my point of view about the name translation and also how to find
the katana. I also increased by three points the final note in my review
because i have now a better opinion about this game.
1.4 : you'll discover the location of a new item in part 2, the story of the
videos, and personnal notes. Also, new faqs appeared since some people
misunderstand me. I read the walkthrough again and explain what is the "capsule
room". I have forgotten to say how to raise in reality last time because i
thought that when you was in the game it was evident, but it seems not ...I
read again and some Sanecko instead of Shizuko was corrected. Sorry for the
confusion it caused, but i thought that i had corrected all the name in the
last version of this walkthrough. A description of boss also appeared.
Final version : I corrected others things. This version is for my site and
gamefaqs.
Here is the summary :

0 : My point of view about the translation :
READ THIS FIRST : It's the first time i make a walkthrough for a game that
obtain a translation and maybe it's the last one if people continue to send me
e mail about name correction. I played with the JAPANESE version of The Ring.
The names could be different because english is not my first language. I use the
official translation rules in my country (France) and they are quite different.
I begin with Timothei which is the equivalent of Timothy in english. For
Luckino, i refuse to write it LU KI NO because it's like to said to everyone :
"I'm a champion i read 3 katakanas". For example in Tech Romancer in the
english version, the robot RAFAGA is in fact named LAFARGUE in japanese. If you
don't believe me, play with Magic Knight Ray Earth on Saturn : A character is
called Lafargue (it use the same kanas) and Working Designs translate it by
Rafargue, which is better than RAFAGA. In addition of that, We write Luc in
french and not Luke so sorry for the convenience. Last i finish with Kessy.
English translator called it Kathy. With english pronounciation it's ok, but
for a french it's completely different. That's why i chose Kessy. I hope you
will understand my point of view.
1 REVIEW :
Kadokawa and Asmik Ace sign their first Resident like or if we can call that
game a resident like. There are a lot of subtilities in the game. The Ring
separate clearly adventure and action. In the "reality" you are MEG. It seems
that she was the girlfriend of Robert ( we will be fix with the translation ).
Robert has created the next generation in video games : THE RING. For Robert
it's more than a video games (and to say the truth he was not so wrong). As you
will see by playing the game, it's a parallel of their world (a friend told me
of a devil dimension like in Silent Hill). But something happens, a virus
changes the data, game becomes a reality when you play it and reality is a game.
That's the entire originality of the Ring.
The game begins after a long FMV, thanks to Kadokawa (Lunar...), of good
quality but it's the only one i have seen. Maybe there is another one at the
end of the game. Gulp... . The cut scenes have nothing special. Fortunately you
can zap them.
The graphics are the hard point of the game. In the reality they are correct
for 2F, very cool for 1F and quite ugly for B1. In the Ring you have a problem
of light. You have a lamp and some batteries and you visit a dark world. You'll
fix the light later in the game but the graphics reach the quality of B1. At
least the game is too dull blue green for the player. The cold atmosphere in
the CDC SOCIETY is adapted to the story.
The animation is average. Good because all movements are real, bad because Meg
is
too slow when she walks and too speed when she runs. It creates some bugs when
you
want to investigate a drawer or a cupboard or a locker. In addition of that some
monsters are quicker than you. You can change the camera in the Options menu but
not in the game. Type B is auwful, Type A is the same as in Veronica, Type C is
a
hybrid of A and B and type D is a first person view, cool for investigation but
auwful for battles.
I give credits to the music. I don't like the one of 2F but notice that there
is one music for one floor. Quite original. The digit are good but not
extraordinary.
The controls are hard. You play with the cross and not the analogic control
(when the conceptors will understand that Play and Sat are dead). I think that
Meg is too slow when she shots, however she has an excellent precision. As you
can see the game is full of drawbacks (have i talk of bugs with ladder) but
some points are good. The more you kill the monster the strongest they become.
The imaginary acts like a real video game. If the adventure is difficult in the
reality, it's ultra hard in the ring because you are alone and without
directive. I wait 2 hours of normal play, without searching for my way to go to
1F.
I hope for the game that the monster will come in reality or more people
transform like Robert. Even if the story is interesting the Ring is not a top.
If you know the original video maybe it could be interesting. As a player i
must admit that the game is dull blue green for interesting a classical player,
but also as a player i want to know the secret of the Ring.

2 CAST OF CHARACTERS :
MEG : Heroine of the game, she worked with Robert. She must discover why "the
Ring" has killed Robert. She is slow when she shots but resists so good.
JACK : Friend of Meg and Robert. We learn few things about him and i suppose he
knows more about Robert's death than he wants too say (at least like all the
best friend in detective story).
JOHN : Big boss of the CDC SOCIETY. Each time you talk of the Ring, he is
nervous. Hey Johny, got a problem ?
CHRIS : She is not a friend of Meg but she helps her sometimes. As the
secretary chief she is extremely straight in her work.
ROBERT : He died at the beginning (or he is supposed to be dead) because he
plays too much with the Ring. Don't worry they don't want to talk of epilepsie
in the game.
KESSY : She is the most sympathic character of the game. She helps Meg to go to
1F without asking the permission of Luckino.
LUCKINO : the most antipathic security guard i know. Each time you want to make
something unusual like going in toilets for men with Meg or Investigate a new
room, he forbids the access.
PETER : The scientist who works in the office near Robert's one. Not very
communicative, he had a problem with Robert. I think, he was jalous.
TIMOTHEI : The doctor of the CDC. He is too old to investigate himself, so he
helps Meg as best as he can. He doesn't understand which virus killed Robert and
he counts on you to help him for this point.
SHIZUKO : is the virtual girl i called ring in the previous version of this
walkthrough. She is very important.
3 WEAPONS AND ITEMS :
The knife : Useless like in all resident like.
Handgun : a good weapon and a tons of bullets
Shotgun : a powerful weapon at close range. On the contrary of other shotgun,
you cannot make combos.
Grenade launcher : not very powerful and long to reload.
Assault rifle : the best weapon of the game. Powerful and full of bullets.
Rocket launcher : extremely powerful and even dangerous for the user. you'll
build it.
Napalm gun : is the most powerful weapon but you'll use it only for the last
boss.
The katana : When you return last from the Ring go to 1F. Then head towards the
Exit. Meg will hear a scream and run. Kessy is attacked by a gorilla. Kill the
gorilla. Then search for the southwest corner of the room and you'll find the
katana. It's a good weapon in close range But it's hard to use. Also you can
find it only when you have the access to this room (you could think it's stupid
to say that but in fact it's very late in the game.)
Normal items :
Healing Serum : normal that heals one status
extra that heals all status
medium that heals 2 or 3 status
Battery : for your lamp, or you'll travel in the dark.
Special Items are used automatically.
About the battle system : When a monster is too close of you, you cannot use
your weapon. Avoid the foe first then shoot. It's better to reload by using the
sub menu because in battle the monster hits you with violence when you reload.
4 MONSTERS AND BOSS :
HUMAN LARVE : Exist in red(stupid), blue(stick) and green(powerful and stick).
GORILLA : Very powerful with a good jump but a little slow.
LIZARD : They are difficult to shoot.Exist also in red and white.
CROW : Also difficult to shoot.
BOSS :
BLUE LARVE : In the microscope room in imaginary awaits the first boss. Similar
to the other blue larve, he is hard to kill.
GORILLA : He waits for you in the room Breeding, when you kill him you collect
a key.
SUPER LARVE : Near the isolation room, you need a grenade launcher to kill him
quick.
JOHN : After a good transformation, John is a disapointing and easy boss.
SADAKO : It's the last boss.
5 WALKTHROUGH part 1 :
The game begins with a FMV in english where Robert dies killed by a virus. Meg
was talking to him by using phone. Then she arrives and cries. Jack takes her to
the CDC.
Meg is now in Robert's office. Try to exit but the phone rings. Answer the
phone. Jack learns that Robert was working on "the Ring" before his death. Use
the PC and go to the Ring.
You awake as a virtua cop and meet another virtua cop. You are in the capsule
room. You will play a mini tutorial : L : lighten up your lamp, A is the action
button, R+A= shot etc... Then climb the stairs. You find a serum and bullets.
You meet with a monster. Shoot him. Go downstairs. You fall and awake.
MEG : "wow the game is very realistic..."
Exit of the room. You can save the game by using the camera and use the box to
deposit items. Exit of the office and meet Chris.
CHRIS : " Hi Meg. The big boss wants to see you."
MEG : " Ok let's go."
You talk with John. When Meg asks about the ring, he becomes furious. Now Meg
is in the LOBBY. You see 2 doors near the one of the boss and 1 door near the
exit. Don't go to 1F. You need a LV2 CARD. Enter the door near the exit. Talk
to Timothei.
TIM : "Robert's death is due to a virus"
MEG : "a ... virus ? strange."
Take the serum in the locker then Exit. Now visit all the rooms you can. You
must find the Laboratory room with two lockers. One of them have a file inside.
This will mark a red point on your map. Arrive in a new corridor then
investigate the LOCKER ROOM. When you have see it, exit. This will activate a
cut scene. When you come to the toilets enter those for men to meet Luckino.
Then visit those for Women to laugh. Now exit and head to your office. Here
save. Exit. The next room is Peter's office. Talk with him and exit. Go all the
way back to the boss and ask more about the Ring. Exit. Go to your office and
talk with Jack by using the phone. Return to the locker room to meet Chris and
Kessy. Search for the first locker on the left. Chris comes to talk. Then Exit.
Now
go back to John's office and ask again about the ring. Then go to Timothei's
room and talk with him.
TIM : "If you want to know more, investigate Robert's locker."
MEG : "I search for all the lockers but they are only for women. I can't visit
the
room for men."
TIM : "Luckino must be there now. Go and I will follow, don't worry."
Go to the room near the LOCKER ROOM and enter it. You meet Luckino and Tim
explains that you want to look inside Robert's locker. Luckino is OK but it's
the only one you can open. You found a key and a file in Robert's locker. The
key opens the library in the lobby. Visit it and take the third file. Luckino
comes and orders you to exit.
MEG : "Is that guy a human ?"
Now that you have 3 files you can go further deep in the Ring. Go to your
office and save. Then use the PC to raise again in the Ring. This time use a
ladder to go to B1. In the first corridor there are an extra serum and a
battery. Pass the door. In the new corridor enter the first room and save.
Collect a battery and open a locker for a surprise. Exit to the toilets for
women and find some bullets in one of the WC. Enter a new corridor and talk to
the Virtua cop. Enter the first room. It's an infirmery and talk to the other
cop. Search for the curtain to investigate each bed. Exit. Visit the Microscope
room. Search for the drawer to find a file. Open the locker and kill the monster
inside. Collect the map on the wall. From this moment on you will encounter
powerful and new monsters. Visit the other room you can to collect serum and
battery. Go back to your save room and use the PC to raise in the reality.
MEG : "Ouh my head... that game really hurt... I must talk of it with John."
Go talking to John. Exit and you fall. You awake in Timothei's room. Exit and
go to your office. There's no light. Enter the little room with the PC, you
will see a guy destroying the connection with the Ring. He hits you and
escapes. He loses a card lv2. Exit and talk to Peter.
PETER : "I never do such a thing. i don't understand."
MEG : "Are you sure ?"
You exit. On the way to the locker room you meet Kessy. She has lost her LV2
CARD and need yours to go to 1F (but Kessy didn't know that you have just
acquired it). Go to the Lobby. On your way you can open a new room : CONTROL
ROOM to find a map of 2F on a wall. Then go to the Lobby. Meet Kessy and go to
1F with her. Now you open the door. Visit 1F. The first office is Chris's one.
She says that Kessy is waiting for you at the restaurant. You cannot use Chris's
computer to go to the ring for the moment. In the second office save. Exit. Go
to the Restaurant. Kessy will help you disturbing Chris. Exit and visit all the
rooms you can. Last visit SECURITY ROOM to meet Luckino.
LUCKINO : "You know that you are heavy ?"
MEG : "What ?"
LUCKINO : "I bring you to Timothei's room."
MEG : "I suppose i must thank you ?"
LUCKINO : "Have i say that ? You must exit now."
MEG : "That guy has nothing human, but he could be useful."
On your way to Chris's office you meet Chris. She informs you that she has seen
Jack in the Lobby. Enter Chris's office and go to "the Ring". Go to the
corridor of Microscope room. The first door is locked and you need a powerful
weapon. You must go to the OPEROOM at the end of this corridor and enter. Push
the stool toward the cupboard. Collect the Shotgun. Use it to open the door.
Enter. Collect card key LV2. Go to the EXIT DOOR. Use the card and then the
stairs. Go to the roof to collect a serum. Kill the monster near 1F door and
enter 1F.Collect Hand gun bullets in the corridor, shot gun bullets in the
toilets, in the control room and in another room. Collect also a battery in the
first room of the corridor and the map of 1F on the wall. Save your game in the
OFFICE 2 like in reality. Enter OFFICE 1.
VIRTUA COP : "You surprised me. Are you nuts ?"
MEG : "Oh i'm so sorry."
VIRTUA COP : "I have a headache, It's not the moment. I cannot protect us from
the gas because i will disconnect soon.
MEG : "Gas ?"
VIRTUA COP : "Yes, if in 15 minutes you don't put the code 1951 in the electric
panel of the control room, we are all dead. Oh no i lose the contact,
hurry...up."
Now you have 15 minutes to find a key, to put it in the panel and enter the
code. First re enter the room to collect a battery. Then immediately go to B1
and enter the room BREEDING. Kill the gorilla and collect the key. Go to
the transmission room of 1F and enter 1951. You will see "SHIZUKO", a little
virtual girl. Now you can switch on the light in all rooms and corridors you
have visited except for the stairs. Go back to the capsule room and raise in the
reality. Go to the restaurant and talk with Chris and Kessy.
KESSY : "Where were you ?"
MEG : "On the ring..."
CHRIS : "Ok, stop taking us for stupid girl. What about Robert's death ?"
MEG : "I do what i can, but that game is really dangerous..."
SHIZUKO : "HI HI HI, RING !..."
Meg turns her head and looks at the girl who disappeared.
CHRIS : "Meg, are you alright ?"
MEG : "Yes, I think."
SHIZUKO : "HI HI HI"
Meg turns again and didn't see anyone.
MEG : "I want to access to more room, if you want to know the truth, OK ?"
CHRIS : "Let me fix it with your LV2 CARD KEY. It's ok now."
You can now visit most of the rooms that were locked. Go to B1. Visit the save
room and collect the map of B1 on the wall. Then visit the toilets for women
and talk to the woman inside. Then visit the infirmery and talk to the doctor.
He said that all the people here suffer of the same virus. He doesn't
understand what happened to them. In other room talk and you will learn a lot
of interesting things, in japanese for the moment. Don't forget to open the
curtain and talk to a woman who talk so much of Robert. Then go in Microscope
room, open the locker and hide inside. John and Peter know everything and Peter
cannot solve the problem for the moment. After that collect the serum and add
it to the item box. During the exploration you will find a lot of serum. Put
them all in the item box. You will find 90 bullets, put it also in the item
box. Look at all the drawer. Go to 2F and enter John's office. Open his drawer
and collect a key. I know that key opens a locker. In fact you can now open new
lockers and collect serums and bullets. Visit all the rooms and put all the
items in the item box.
6 Walkthrough part 2 :
Now return to John's office and enter in the Reference room (the one i called
Library). Search for a drawer between two chairs and collect a 8mm film. I
cannot
find it due to the bug of programmation. I wasn't able to touch the drawer
because i searched for it while i was running. BRIEF, return to your office and
pick up
the phone to talk with Jack. Go to Chris's office and talk with her. You get
the Audio visual key on the ground. Go to the audiovisual room and use the
camera to
watch the film. Shizuko will transport you in the ring. Go to B1 and pass the
door at the end of the corridor of Microscope room to reach a new area. Pass
the next corridor. You meet a Virtua cop who looks familiar.
VIRTUA COP : "Ah that monster escape."
MEG : "Let's go !"
VIRTUA COP : "No you must equip yourself first. There are a grenade launcher
and an assault riffle somewhere in 1F and 2F. Find them and come back. Find
also some grenades. I have installed it."
MEG : "INSTALLED ? Oh... ok see you later."
Go to 1F and enter the kitchen. You find an assault rifle. Open the
refrigerator of the left to find some grenades. In the right refrigerator you
find a key. Exit and enter the room in front of you to find a rifle ammo. Then
go back to the Capsule room and climb the stairs. You find a grenade launcher
in this room. Now go back to the cop. Enter the room and kill the monster by
using your grenade launcher (All the bullets). Then the cop says that he is
going to 1F now. You can visit two isolation rooms to find a lot of bullets and
serums. You also find some batteries. Now save and climb to 1F. You discover
that the cop is Jack. He has learned how to play in network with the ring by
studying Robert's data. Then a larve attacks Meg and she falls. Meg awakes in
the operoom and talks with John and Peter. They ask Meg to find a vaccin because
no one has survived so long in the ring. Return to your office. Try to enter
the little room but Luckino arrives. Talk and when he lives connect the PC and
raise on the ring. You find 3 rockets. Climb the stairs and collect Napalm
bullets. Go to B1 and then use the stairs to reach 1F. You see Shizuko. Follow
her and enter the same office. A cop talk with you of the rocket launcher. You
must now build it. Exit to B1. You see Shizuko again. Follow her to the new
area. Enter room level 4. Then use the door to arrive in a room with a big
machine. FMV. Then Shizuko appears and lives. Follow her to Chanel room. She
informs you of the current danger. The virus is launched in reality and everyone
will turn in monsters. Now collect the Rocket launcher. The first part is in
one of the toilets of isolation room, second is in the toilets for men in B1
and third is in the restaurant in 1F. There's probably a little more to do in
the ring but monsters were so powerful and numerous that I prefer to advise you
to raise in the reality now. To do that, go to the capsule room (where you play
the tutorial) in 1F and use the only open capsule. Yes my wish comes true :
Monsters in reality. You can use all the serums and bullets. You find a gun.
Equip yourself and save. Keep in mind that if monsters are weak they are too
numerous to be all killed. In addition of that you must economise the bullets
for the two ultimate bosses of the game. When you exit you have 3 minutes to
reach B1 by using new doors (the courtyard). Then go to the Isolation room. The
chrono stopped and now you have all your time. In one of isolation room is a
man who's scared. Then he changes into a gorilla. Kill him, he is weak. Shizuko
appears. Follow her in the chanel room. You find her body and after you talk
take the key. DON'T FORGET TO VISIT ALL THE ROOMS HERE TO FIND A LOT OF ITEMS.
Then you'll have to use an elevator to reach the two rooms you can't enter. Go
to John's office and push the cupboard to find a secret elevator. Now kill the
larve and arrive in B1. Enter the level 4 room. FMV. Kill John. He is
ridiculous but long. you need a tons of bullets. Go to the machine room to see
Sadako. She takes off to the room. You exit automatically, but now, re enter
the room and search for the drawer to find Sadako's silver ring. If someone
knows
how we can use it in the game... Shizuko asks you to kill her to save the
world. Go to 2F and save. Now climb to the roof by using stairs and collect all
items. Then enter the last arena.
SADAKO : To kill her you must first shoot her until she changes into crows.
Shoot all the crows. Do this two times. The third times she appears collect the
napalm gun and in one shot kill her. FMV. Now enjoy the end of the game and
prepare for RING 2.
ADK.
7 The story from the movie :
There are three movies based on the Ring and also in Japan a dramatic serie of
episodes. Here i'll tell you the story of the two movies i received by mail
after
i asked it. It's also to answer to many people who asked me more about the Ring,
because except for the game, i don't know anything else.
Update : (final version) :
Since the time i wrote this, the first movie comes in France to the cinema, and
now, a movie called Ring 0 is available. It told of the story of Sadako, before
she became the evil spirit. It also showed how she obtained her power.
Movie 1 :
A strange video is being circulated around among teenage students in Japan.
They dare each other to watch it and spread rumours that whoever watch it will
die in 7 days. Usually, the victims will receive a strange midnight call
without anybody at the other end. That's why for those who plays with the
japanese version, you can see in the manual a video named : RING 0. The victims
are found dead with a horrible look on their face as if they had seen something
horrible. You'll understand that it's because they have seen SADAKO and were
frightened by the death during the seventh day. If you remember during the game
you saw an extract from a movie and even a second if i'm right. It comes from
the first movie video. In the movie the heroine is a female reporter who has
heared of the story. She is involved in the story because a girl of his family
was
killed by this videotape. She managed to get a copy of the tape since more and
more
youngsters are copying this video to their friends. The way to lift the curse is
to show the same video to another one and make a copy to him or her, then he or
she only die if he doesn't show the same video to another one. With the system
of
copy, everyone could be in danger...
One caracteristic of this curse is that whan you take a photo of you, you see
that your faces is not normal. She notices it on photo of her niece who was
killed
by Sadako.
This reporter gives a copy of the video to her ex husband, Ryuji, a teacher, to
ask
him his opinion. She was saved but didn't know it. Unfortunately her son also
watch the movie, because he has paranormal power and can communicate with the
death niece.
This power comes from his father, Ryuji. Ryuji also feels that his niece was
here.
She tries to communicate with him. Then the two heroes of this first part,
were desperates to save themselves as they didn't know how to lift the curse.
They discovered the place where Sadako was thrown by her scientist father who
didn't want her anymore : a well. The mother of Sadako, Shizuko has supernatural
power.
Her daughter inherit them but they were superior. The extract of the movie in
the game
related the public test organised to show these powers. No one believe it was
possible,
then a guy screamed and died. Shizuko perfectly knows that Sadako was
responsible for
this. His father then decide to kill Sadako. When she was 16, she looks in the
well
and her father killed her, or so he believes. Someone makes a video and doesn't
interfere
or help her. Sadako had supernatural power and survive in the well 7 days.
During this time she
developped hatred for humanity who mocked her mother (like in the video of the
game).
In the tape, she explains her name : sada in japanese means she has no sexual
relation and
she blames everyone for not saving her. After seven days she comes and kill the
person.
After a long investigation, they both uncovered Sadako's bones and thought that
they had
lifted the curse, because 5 minutes after 7h PM, the heroine was alived. Of
course it was not.
The husband of the reporter died on the seventh day. The scene was horrible, and
i really
make nightmare cause of it. Then the reporter learns about her son and think to
an ingenious plan.
They watch the film one after the other to increase their lives of 1 week, she
calls for her father
and asks for his help. And the first movie end here.
Movie 2 :
In the second movie, the reporter lets her father watch the video. The father
died also in horrible conditions and we learn that it was a sacrifice because
he was old. A big blank here which must be how the reporter was contacting
doctors and scientists to help her to stop the curse. They use an equipment with
a swimming pool and unfortunately they were all electrocuted. Sadako's soul was
"released". That's all for the second movie but i think i can tell a little
more if someone e mail me.
8 FAQS and credits :
I have a tons of serum and bullets in reality, can i transfer it to the ring ?
No. You must store them for the end of the game. Even if it's possible to
transfer items never do such a thing.
The game is too hard. I run out of ammo !
Keep in mind you cannot kill all the monsters for some reasons. Monsters are a
virus. So they are infinite. The more you kill the monsters the strongest they
are.
Simply avoid battle and kill only those who must be killed.
I don't understand what you say.
No problem, e mail me at advanced_knight@yahoo.fr and i will answer you.
Why must i build the rocket launcher ?
To see a powerful weapon and kill those gorilla in one shot.
Where are those capsules you talk ?
The capsule room is the room where you play the tutorial the first time you rise
on
the imaginary. Sorry if it's not clear for you but it's the name in the japanese
version.
The names are different !
I added "Read this first" near "my point of view". Stop
sending mail to say it's Kathy and not Kessy, the pronounciation is good for
English user but not for everyone. Think that in the world there are more ways
to translate japanese and especially to pronounce it. If the Ring was
translated by me in french, the name will be Kessy so everyone in my country
can pronounce it correctly.
What are you saying, the monsters in reality are not weak !
Yes they are, but it's because i killed many monsters in imaginary. They were
very powerful at that moment. I decide to return to the real world cause of
this. Anyway the first gorilla you meet can be killed in three bullets of a
gun, and other larves are the classical one at the beginning of the game.
I must thank Sam Clevenger who e mail me how to proceed at the beginning of
Part 2.
I want to thank Loner for the location of the katana and "some" names
correction (those in kanji in the japanese version).
Thanks to Al Amaloo and Dave Allison who post my walkthrough on their site so
many
people can read me.
Thanks to Beng Wah who bring to me new elements and the story from the movies.
This walkthrough is copyright 2000 because i suffer so much to build it. I'll
never admit someone use it to sell it. Enjoy the game and read me in other
walkthroughs.
9 : PERSONNAL NOTES :
Well, the Ring was completely destroyed in the review i read on the net or
elsewhere. However it's an international success due to the translation in
english, because i receive e mails from everywhere in the world. I'm so happy
to build this walkthrough step by step, since i receive new informations some
times and i'm sure that this game has its own fan club. I can add that i watch
an
episode of X files last week where Mulder and Scully was disguised in virtua
cop. They both enter the game to fight with a super woman who gives the death
to everyone in the game. Most of you probably missed it but she spoke japanese
to Daryl Musashi before she killed him. It probably means that a japanese
discovers the original character and installs it to stop the advance of american
in this fictional way. Hehe, if it's not the Ring, for the costume and the
fatal game, i'm the King of Fighter. As you can see in the movie, the story is
completely different of the game. There's no virus and no CDC society. In fact
the programmer created a special story based on the real Ring. In addition i
remember of many legends in japanese OAV that talk of a ghost woman in a well.
They use it to make fear to little child during their equivalent fest of
halloween. The only common point between the two stories is Sadako, because she
appears in the same condition (look at the CG MOVIE in the game and compare
with what i say in the walkthrough) but the programmer add a form of cloning of
her soul which was not in the movie. If you have new infos or dicovered new
items and secrets don't hesitate to e mail me at advanced_knight@yahoo.fr.
PS : Ring 2 was cancelled because the first episode doesn't have success in
Japan.
ADK.
I wait for RING 2.
