Crassmaster: Yep, I'm with you. I often had to pause to laugh at writing that I'm not entirely certain was supposed to be funny, it just sucked balls. Characters that controlled like a tank. And how insanely complicated and ridiculous is that story line? Just adding more layers to a bunch of confused crap doesn't make it better.

Maybe I'll try RE5 some day, but the earlier ones absolutely killed my interest in that entire series.

SimonG: RE 4 and 5 are decent action games with a slightly less ass-pull plot.

Also, the 3DS version seems like the game Resident Evil should have been (only played the demo, but more in the vein of 1 - 3 but this time actually with proper controls.)
Yeah, I probably will puck up 5 during a sale or something. It did seem like something I MIGHT enjoy.

Elmofongo: the forget you i for one love the old games and i love the tank like controls

since this game is not made for you then you are not important to the game

go play your psychological horrors like amnesia or system shock which imo is not scary

Crassmaster: Wow, are you this much of a whining infant every time someone disagrees with you? Maybe try resembling a grown adult at some point. Good grief.
Forgive me then, but nothing irritates me more then Resident Evil not being scary for you guys and was always a silly b movie action game, combine with that I was in a pissed-off mood after playing the demo.

Speaking of Resident Evil, how good is the gamecube remake of the first one? My little brother ordered it yesterday, and can't wait to play it.

the best in the series enviornments are a terrifying sight to behold and please, please be patient with the tank-like controls and fixed camara if you can

I liked it very much too.

Smannesman: I actually saw it on Conan and I didn't like what I saw (game-wise).
I was more irked by the expert guy there claiming it's the sixth game in the series, whereas I think twentieth would be closer to the truth.

It does force you to put up with the usual wonky controls, camera angles, voice acting, oddball puzzles and shit, but it's quite good if you find these characteristics tolerable. It's quite short, though, and I really couldn't be arsed to play it again with Chris since it's basically the same game with less inventory space and a different order for solving puzzles. I think there was something different about a boss fight as well, but that wouldn't motivate me enough. Regardless, the biggest problem I have with the remake is that they never bothered to do the same to RE2, Nemesis or Code Veronica.

SimonG: Look at your keyboard. You see those keys between "M" and "-"? (slighty above/left of the space bar)

USE THEM
I just had to quote this to express my utmost agreement. Sometimes I can't understand a word he's saying. Okay, I'm exaggerating here. Words, yes – how they're supposed to be connected, no.

the RE series should have ended in Code:Veronica

Just skip over it. You can typically tell what was being said from the responses that follow. And if there are none, you probably didn't miss out on anything remotely interesting.

OK since there are people here who do not find the old resident evils scary, tell me what game was scary for you?

SimonG: Funny, I always thought it that Alone in the Dark. Which was, unlike the RE games, actually scary.

OmegaX: Damn, I was writing almost the exact same thing and you ninja'd me.
RE1 wasn't scary BTW. It was campy as hell and I doubt it was unintentional. Starting with RE2 they tried to be more serious and the REmake really improved the atmosphere. I wouldn't say it was scary though.
The horror of the REmake was all in the survival, and I found it VERY successful at that. Although a skilled player (or someone with strong pack-rat instincts) could easily avoid the sort of tension that made it frightening. But hey... someone who isn't willing to play along with Amnesia's smoke and mirrors isn't going to be scared by that either.

And I can't really speak for the original games since I've never played them, but I've never thought that 4 was anything other than completely intentional in its cheesiness. It was just about B-movie perfection in that regard.

Easily my single favorite console exclusive of all time. It's amazing.

Wasn't it competing with its movie series to see which one managed to have worse plots and stories? :P

I remember the fun I had playing my RE1 on my PS1 without a save card. Oh, the thrills of risking hours thrown away because of a mistake. ^^

RE4 on PC, on the other side, was mildly amusing only.

Clock Tower 3 for its serial killers + back stories + weak defenseless female protagonist (outside of boss finales anyway)

Haunting Ground was tense if not really scary because of the main antagonists (good god, Debbie) and weak female protagonist. The dog helped alleviate most of the tension, though.

And of course the Silent Hill titles for various reasons.

Love me some atmospheric Japanese-style horror games.

Unfortunately, I haven't played REmake or RE:0, so I can't say I like or dislike those more than the others in the series. I still love the first 4 numbered titles in the Resident Evil line, though.

RE5 was an action movie and RE6 looks to be more of the same only darker, literally.
