Resident Evil reviews and comments
I'd love to see this remade again using the RE engine. For what it is it's a very solid survival horror (even if the camera drives me nuts sometimes).
Definitely misses the mark, but still a worthwhile experience. This game was made in the dawn of true 3D, and it shows. The camera angles are at times infuriating, and the terrible graphics hamstring whatever atmosphere wasn't already butchered by the comically bad voice acting. For the time, however, the game still holds up as more of an adventure game than anything else.
