Yeah, I've always thought his design was weird. In 1999 it was more forgivable because he was super pixelated and the CGI was cartoonish anyway. I bet he'll look a little different in the game engine. They nailed Mr. X in the RE2 Remake. Kept him close to the original but updated him for modern graphics.
Capcom added an achievement to RE2, it's a letter from Jill that you find in the Kendo Gun Shop. It's not much but I'll have to go find it to get my game up to 100% again.
