Resident Evil Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)RE, how do I rate thee?
CONTROLS, EASE OF USE:
On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being a controlling a helicopter in a gale-force sleet storm with no prior flight experience and 10 being controlling a food-pellet dispenser, I rate the controls ease of use a 7; I don't like steering Redfield around like a tank any better than you do, but with a little effort it can be mastered.
GRAPHICS:
On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being Pong and 10 being Resident Evil for the Gamecube, I rate the graphics an enthusiastic 10; maybe the backgrounds are prerendered, but the art in this game must have been a labor of love.It's drop dead gorgeous at every turn, and Redfield, Valentine, Zombies et all look fantastic and are well animated.
DIFFICULTY:
On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being a walk in the park and 10 being calculating the square root of pi with a slide rule, I rate the difficulty a 6; the puzzles in RE are pretty simple and don't provide a huge challenge, but staying alive in the mansion while maintaining your inventory and ammunition can be difficult at times.
GAMEPLAY HOURS:
On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the amount time it takes for a healthy adult male to empty his bladder and 10 being the amount of time it takes an elderly tortoise with gout to complete the Tour de France on foot, I rate the gameplay hours an 8; the game doesn't take forever to complete, but there's two characters, providing a small amount of replayability.You may take into account the fact that I have a full time job and so I can't burn too many hours playing video games.RE provided a nice amount of gameplay for me.
CREEPINESS:
On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being your average carnival spook house and 10 being a walk through a haunted graveyard alone at midnight naked, I rate the creepiness a 10; keep an extra pair of shorts handy when playing this one, or fit yourself with a diaper.You've been warned.
OVERALL ENJOYMENT:
On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being hit in the crotch with a falling icicle and 10 being a nice frosty bowl of Quisp, I rate the overall enjoyment a 10 - heck, RE is BETTER than a nice frosty bowl of Quisp.
I wholeheartedly recommend you run right out (or, I guess you're here, so why bother running right out, just click it) and buy RE immediately.

Product Description:
Resident Evil, the game that is often credited with starting the survival-horror genre, is being reinvented for the GameCube. For those unfamiliar with the series, a mysterious corporation has secretly been performing ungodly biotech experiments in the sleepy little town of Raccoon City. When reports of gory attacks come in from nearby areas, two crack military squads are sent to investigate. Players take the role of either sharpshooter Chris Redfield or demolitions expert Jill Valentine to track down the source of the town's problems--specifically, something in a decaying mansion that's mutating animals into grotesque killers and turning humans into bloodthirsty zombies. Supplies and ammunition are scarce, so players have to know when to fight, when to run, and how to keep their wits about them. Players can't afford to waste their shots and expect their characters to survive.
The story is being retrofitted with motion-captured animation, next-generation graphics, real-time lighting and shadow effects, new areas, and newly rendered in-game video segments to create an even more cinematic experience. Also, a redesigned combat system lets players attack and defend themselves with a variety of items found in the environment.
