D.I.J.'s diary

D.I.J.'s diary is located in the slot machine in battle mode. Sometimes you have to play more than once to find it.

D.I.J.'s identity

The person who wrote the D.I.J. diary is the mouse that jumps out of the locker in Antarctica. It all makes sense once you read the D.I.J. diary. -From: CharlieHustle214@aol.com

Find a magnum for Wesker

Locate the casino room where everyone gets a first aid from the slot machine. Wesker will hit it and the bottom will open and reveal a magnum instead of a first aid spray. Note: Although it only has six shots, it will only take five to kill Alexia type 1.
