Harry Harris (ハリー・ハリス, Harī Harisu) is a special agent of the now-defunct American government agency AMS. He is a supporting character in The House of the Dead 2 and its upcoming remake.
Dispatched in 2000 to quell a citywide incident involving hostile biologically-engineered creatures, Harry traveled with agent Amy Crystal and provided transportation to agents James Taylor and Gary Stewart. After being injured by the chainsaw-wielding behemoth Strength, he lent James and Gary his car to continue without him. He ultimately survived his wounds.
Biography[]
Information regarding Harry remains obscure. Both secretive and mysterious, he remains an enigma among the other AMS agents. He has been described as gloomy and expressionless, and refuses to delve into his past.[1]
2000 incident[]
On February 26, 2000, an outbreak of creatures hit an unnamed city. Harry and Amy were sent by the AMS to neutralize the threat and evacuate citizens. The pair eventually met agents James Taylor and Gary Stewart after the latter two killed the massive Judgment. Harry noticed that the outbreak was reminiscent of the 1998 Curien Case. Both parties agreed to meet at Sunset Bridge.
After James and Gary killed the aquatic Hierophant, Harry piloted the group on a boat through the city canals. He revealed that Caleb Goldman, head of the DBR Corporation and Dr. Curien's financier, had orchestrated the outbreak. Goldman left a message on Amy's phone, inviting the agents to meet him at the coliseum on the north side of the city; despite fearing this to be a trap, Harry insisted that they go.
James and Gary disembarked the boat, agreeing to reach the coliseum via the sewers. Meanwhile, the chainsaw-wielding Strength ambushed Harry and Amy; Amy frantically called James and Gary -- who had just killed Tower -- before getting cut off. The agents later found Amy and a wounded Harry inside a giant cage with Strength, whom they defeat.
Harry gave James and Gary the address of Goldman's headquarters, as well as the keys to his car. The pair went on to defeat Goldman's magnum opus, Emperor, and Goldman committed suicide.
His fate is ultimately shown in two of the game's multiple endings. In the "normal" ending, Harry is alive and is among many characters greeting James and Gary outside of Goldman's headquarters. In the "good" ending, agent Thomas Rogan confirms Harry's survival. The "bad" ending (which features an undead Goldman) leaves Harry's fate ambiguous.
Harry also appears in a flashback during The House of the Dead III's attract mode.
Appearance[]
Harry wears dark glasses, a black jacket with a white shirt with a gray tie, and matching gray pants with green dress shoes. Him and G have similar short, black hair and sideburns.
