| - Jill was once a normal, yet high profile police officer in S.T.A.R.S. Yet one day, Jill Valentine discovered some people and animals infected with the dreaded T-Virus, a pathogen that turned its victims into zombies. Neither Jill Valentine nor Raccoon City would ever be the same again. Resident Evil helped popularize the survival horror genre, and Jill Valentine's lead role was probably a large reason for this. Guys love guns, hot chicks, and running around killing things. Jill Valentine is all of these put together, so the Resident Evil series taking off as a staple of longevity and consistency is likely no accident. Even today, Resident Evil has its own little niche fanbase that refuses to let the series fall under the radar, and has even spawned a couple of movies. As for how long both Jill and the Resident Evil series will last, who knows. What we do know is that it's produced by Capcom, so it's not dying any time soon.
