Resident Evil - Code: Veronica Steve Burnside reference or not?

[Pancham Cutie]

Has anyone ever recognized Steve and Captiain Price from MW2 have almost the exact same prisoner number.

Steve: 267
John Price: 627

Same exact numbers, but with the first 2 numbers switched. I call it more than a coincidence(as in that I think that it is not a coincidence) that they have the same exact numbers, but flipped around.

So do you think that this is a reference to Steve Burnside or do you think that it is not a reference.

I don't think it is a coincidence at all. And definitely not a reference. Its just the number they chose for him, or maybe they based it on a real life war hero.

It wouldnt surprise me if it was, but it wouldnt if it wasnt as well...what you need to do is find out if any of the development team for CV worked on MWII as well...if so that could be an inside thing among the creators...granted its not very likley, but its possible all the same...
