Alex wesker

[TheBatMan]

The timeline in Archives 2 states that Alex disappeared in 2006, so Spencer did not know he was betrayed until then, therefore he would have no reason to send in Hunk, or anyone else for that matter.
Revelations takes place in Nov/Dec 2005, just as the island experiments are getting under way.

But it's never really stated at what exact date Spencer wrote his memo. It's possible there is a long time gap between the moment the memo was written and the moment Spencer decided to rely on Albert Wesker.

[TheBatMan]

I really believe that Alex will be the bad guy of Revelations.
My theory, is that Spencer hired HUNK to retrieve the immortality virus and just like in RE2 an accident occurs. The BSAA heard rumors around this incident and is then sent in.

Of course, we already know that HUNK never brought back the virus to Spencer. So, I have this awesome picture in my head of HUNK dying at the hands of Alex after the latter injected himself with the immortality virus. It will be quite ironic if the guy who is nicknamed Grim Reaper dies at the hand of someone who is truly eternal.

Cant be. Revelations takes place in 2005 just after the BSAA have been reformed. Alex didn't report success with the immortality virus and break all contact with Spencer until 2006.

Man all this speculation on HUNK reminds me of the days when people pondered the possibility that Rebecca came back as Nemesis.

Thise were the daze, days.

I think the time frame makes this...unlikely. As it's said, HUNK was being trained in 1996 at Rockford, and it specifically states Alex didn't join the company until 1998. Since HUNK was still active as, well, HUNK at that time...

It also seems very unlikely that Spencer would have sent such a precious commodity as a Wesker child, something vital to his own plans, into regular danger. And we know HUNK was constantly in danger.

Plus, Alex is apparently a researcher, and a gifted one. HUNK is a fully trained special forces operative. While Wesker is both a researcher and a special forces guy, he isn't brilliant at either. HUNK would have to be the most incredible Gary Stu to be bother brilliant enough to discover immortality AND a super soldier capable of surviving almost anything. And that's awful story telling, even for Capcom.

Nope. Cause it's a really good idea. I mean. Have you all saw the trailer for Revelations? I find it hard to believe he couldn't have some sort of connection with Wesker. I mean. Seeing as how he has the Blonde hair and all.. Plus. It says the Wesker children where taken from different racial backgrounds, and Hunk is kinda Australian..

So it could still be though that Hunk is Alex. Because, Hunk was there in the 90's. And that's all we know. After Raccoon City he pretty much disappeared. Right?

You're not giving up, are you?

The timeline in Archives 2 confirms he wrote them in 2005-2006.

[TheNoseKnows]

But... There's still no truth to it being then. He may have only written those then where he was dying. Plus. Like I said. There's no date on them. So. It's untelling when he truly wrote those.

[News Bot]

No one knows who Hunk is. So it's still possible. Plus there's no actual date on when Alex went missing is there? I never seen it in the LiN yesterday as I was playing it.

Around 2005-2006 is the logical guess since that's the path Spencer's Memoirs seem to follow before he abandons all hope in Summer 2006 and makes Albert Wesker come to him.

Alex never joined Umbrella until 1998 after he successfully bonded with the experimental virus. He was given a position in the Information Department and worked exclusively for Spencer monitoring the rest of the project w candidates. But it is never stated if the virus granted him powers like Alberts, or if it had no effect on him at all.

Hunk was doing his training on Rockfort in 1996 so I think we can rule out the possibility of them being one and the same.

[Darkmoon]

Alex vanished long after HUNK's first known operation in Raccoon City. Unless he was operating openly with Umbrella as HUNK, it doesn't work. And of course, the G-Virus extraction was hardly HUNK's first dance, it's just the first one we know about. Spencer seems unlikely to send one of the Wesker children into such dangerous situations as HUNK tends to regularly face. Especally one he feels is going to lead him to immortality. Nor is he likely to be sent to trained on Rockfort Island, given the bad blood between Spencer and the Ashfords.

Personally, still hoping they just forget the Alex Wesker plan and put some effort into making a proper villain, short sighted bastards that they are.
