If Capcom was given an award for how it impacted video game history, you would find them getting one for more than one series. (Mega Man anyone?) And this series would be at the top of the list. Survival horror was shot to the forefront because of this amazing game.Stuck in an old mansion in the middle of the woods. You have limited space to carry the scant supplies the game gives you. Not much ammo. Not much health. And zombies and rabid dogs everywhere. This game was awesome.It does have its issues. The controls took some time to get used to. Not everyone cared for the fixed camera angles. And the voice acting is bad. So bad it’s laughable. It’s definitely dated now. The blood looks fake, the rooms are brightly lit. And the hunters look almost comical, except their scream, that’s still scary. Also the remake for the Gamecube way outshone it. Still though, fun and challenging and truly a classic in its own right.

I was very happy to discover the game was like the other role play games, not just shooting but actual opening of doors and puzzles.

The original Resident Evil is the purest example of a survival horror video game. The newer RE iterations, while fun in their own right, are not survival, and some would say not even horror video games.Resident Evil throws the player into an old, dilapidated mansion with the vaguest notion of zombies on the prowl. The original party is split up to investigate the area, and the player is left to find clues towards a path to safety.Unlike many games supposedly within the Survival Horror genre, Resident Evil hits the nail on the head with the notions of staying safe. Enemies are best avoided, as direct combat can result in being quickly overcome with zombies or being poisoned.Items are hidden throughout the mansion that detail just how the monstrous zombie outbreak started, and to a lesser extent details the lives of the individuals who lived there during the initial stages of the outbreak. There are pictures of their families and friends, their clothes tucked into their closets, and, on occasion, the zombified individual himself, trapped and desolate in a bathtub or a wing of his home.Playing the game, one truly gets a sense of being stranded. In essence, it puts the player in the perspective of every human being there during the outbreak. You never know who or what has been turned, nor where those beings now dwell. Caution is the only priority, and this game capitalizes on that.Weapons are not found sitting out for any person to find. The player must actively search for items.

my uncle gave this to me for christmas. i didnt know what it was until i got a gamecube and bought resident evil 4. then i knew what this game was. i wasnt crazy about it when i first got it. then i got resident evil 2 and tried the uncut version.it was ok. i started playing it now and then. a month later, i found the orginal resident evil and i compared them. And the uncut was a little better because you can use the analog sticks,and instead of gettin only 2 ink ribbons, you get 4 every time u pick them up. the bad part is that the graphics haven’t improved. it is also very scary. like the big snake boss which scared the hell out of me. Still i think you should own both of these but if you want only one of these, go with the uncut one.

Resident Evil: Director’s Cut. This game is, simply put, a classic in every meaning of the word. The game is full of great moments, even when I started playing it already knowing ahead of time about a lot of the “jump scares” the game amused and creeped me out at the same time.The story is pretty standard, but done “well”. After the recent murders in Raccoon City, the R.P.D. sent in their elite S.T.A.R.S. (Special Tactics And Rescue Service) Bravo team. Well, Bravo team goes missing *gasp* and it’s up to the Alpha team to figure out what happened. Things goes pretty friggn’ bad quickly, and they escape into a nearby mansion. After the team gets seperated, the story unfolds into a creepy tale…kinda.The gameplay is clunky and a little tough to get used to at first for some, but you WILL get the hang of it I’m sure. The game uses “tank” contols; meaning that pressing forward always makes your character go forward (no matter the camera angle), left goes left, right goes right, etc. To fire, you draw your gun with R1 and fire with X. It takes getting used to but the more you play the easier it is.The monsters are great. First there are slow moving, bad tracking, zombies; mutant crows; and zombified dogs. Later on more menecing enemies appear that will give first time players a real sense of danger. There are also difficult but not impossible bosses, and after you play the game once, they are a lot of fun to beat as quick as you can. The dialoge is, well, terrible. But the GOOD t.

This Is A Game That Is A Must Have.If You Already Own Resident Evil I Wouldn’t Force You Into Buying This Game But If You’re A Hardcore Fan And Just Can’t Get Enough Of Blood And Zombies Or Have Never Played Any Of The Resident Evil Games This Is A Must Have.The Game Is About A Mansion In Which Your Players(Jill Or Chris)Find Out That Something Is Going On.The Mansion Is Filled With Zombies And Other Creatures Infected With A Virus Which Is Called The T-Virus,The Only Thing To Do Is Get Out.How?………..You Do This By Solving Various Puzzles And Dispaching Enemies.With Chris You Dispach The Enemies With The Use Of A Combat Knife,Beretta(Hand-Gun),Shotgun,Colt Pyton(Magnum)And Flamethrower.The Same Applies For Jill Except Instead Of A Flamethrower She Gets The Use Of A Bazzoka Which Can Carry Different Rounds(Explosive,Acid Or Flame).It’s An Excellent Game When You Start Up You Get 3 Options(Standard,Training Or Advanced)Standard Is The Same Game You Play On The Normal Version Of Resident Evil,Training Is The Same Except Easier And Advanced All Items And Gear,Ammo Etc.Are Swapped Around Put In Different Areas Of The House Etc.As Regards Enemies Some Are Faster,Enimies Appear In Places They Might Not Have Been In The Normal Version And Camera Angles Are Different Than In The Normal Version.Think About It An Excellent Story Killing Zombies,Dogs,Plants Whatever . . . Is Infected By The T-Virus.Verdict:BUY IT!

This brought back so many memories. The godfather of all games. This is a must have for any avid game collector.

It’s about as much of a rollercoaster as a game can get. Ridiculously cheesy dialog and delivery, but smart pacing, art, and design. The goofiness actually enhances the horror. Highly, highly recommended.

I hate to show my age, but we played this when it first came out on the original Playstation. Sure the dialogue is cheesy, but that’s not what it’s about. Plus it’s not like there is a lot of talking in the game anyway. A few minutes into the game we stumble upon a zombie eating someone, and though it’s creepy still, imagine 15 or so years ago! Getting past the dogs after the window burst scene makes you jump, try the same hall when the dogs have been replaced by giant spiders, which lurk in other rooms, sometimes on ceilings! Lots of puzzles to solve, a library, some garden greenhouse room with machine, outside action…and the sounds were memorable. We found the music quite eerie, and even when outside you hear night sounds. Like a real person you’re limited as to what you can carry, deciding between clues, ammo, herbs for antidotes, weapons etc. I seem to remember some weird lab too. May be too much for younger people; one person playing with us was grade school level and he had trouble sleeping. We DID play it with the lights out! Even at my age, some of those scenes have stuck with me. BTW, I am totally not a video or PC gamer of any sort. My friends were, so we all played this as a group, and I enjoyed it.
