Things to Remember: 

B.O.W.:  Bio-Organic Weapon

Umbrella Corporation: Created the T-virus, G-virus. A pharmaceutical company that secretly makes fatal viruses.

Steve Burnside appears in two of the Resident Evil games, first in Code: Veronica X and then in the mini remake, Darkside Chronicles.

Steve's father worked for the Umbrella Corporation. He was selling Umbrella's information at an auction, landing him and his son in a prison on Rockfort Island. Also when he was caught, his wife was killed. 

Rockfort Island was attacked by the airborne T-virus, causing all of the prison guards, wardens, and prisoners to turn into zombies. Claire Redfield (sister of Chris Redfield, who was first mentioned in this post.) was also on the island at the time that Steve was. 

Steve was separated from his father during the zombie attack, but he managed to survive long enough to meet Claire. He left her to find an airplane soon after their encounter. 

When Claire found Steve again, he was in a computer room. Using a computer, Steve found out that Claire's brother, Chris, was being monitored by Umbrella. Claire emailed Leon (her friend from Raccoon City, mentioned in this post) and told him about Umbrella's recording of Chris, additionally the coordinates of the island. Steve got mad and told Claire that her brother wouldn't save her an that she would "just end up disappointed if she relied on others" and then angrily rushed out of the room. 

There was a trap in a palace on the island, in which there were two guns that when picked up, would heat up the room and cook you. Steve fell for this trap, when Claire came and saved him. He left her alone soon after.

The next time Steve shows up is when he saves Claire from a dangerous B.O.W. Later, the owner of the island, the possibly insane Alfred Ashford took them down to the basement of the palace. After they reached a certain floor, they fell off a shifty walkway. Claire's foot got stuck under some rubble, when Steve's infected father came after her. Steve was forced to shoot his flesh-eating father. Claire leaves Steve alone to give him some time.

Steve saves Claire once again, from Alexia Ashford, Alfred's twin sister. He wounds her, and they realize that Afred, with his split personality, was pretending to be his sister. A self-destruct sequence is activated in the palace. Claire and Steve find an airplane, and leave the island, only to crash in Antarctica.

They encounter Alfred again, this time sending him off a railing, sending to his supposed death.

They eventually come across a B.O.W. that was once Alfred and Alexia's father, Alexander Ashford. Steve is almost killed when Claire saves him, to which he says "Next time, I'll protect you, Claire". ((aw my bbys))

At about this time, a dying Alfred revives his twin sister who had been "asleep" for fifteen years. She destroys the truck Steve and Claire planned on escaping in, while capturing the two as well.

Alexia injects the T-virus into Steve, causing him to transform into a beastly B.O.W. Claire is forced to fight him, but he briefly regains consciousness and attacks Alexia. She counterattacks with a fatal blow. As he was dying, he degenerates back to his human state. His last words were "I'm glad that I met you.. I... I love you.. Claire.". ((sobs for an eternity))

The game continues with Chris rescuing Claire, and them escaping Antarctica and Alexia.
