Resident Evil (1996 Video Game)
6/10
Why so stingy with the ammo?
11 July 2007
This is the first of the Resident Evil games (or Biohazard games), and from the ones I have played it is my least favorite. It does not have the cool flow of part two, the tension of part three, or the fact you can aim your gun of part four. However, this is the first game, with movie sequels they tend to get worse, with video games they tend to get better. We start out in this one with an awful movie featuring real actors (I use the term actors loosely) investigating an area and running to a house in the most ridiculous fashion. This is thankfully the last of these type of scenes. The rest of the game features one of two characters going through said house in search of clues. They must face zombies, mutant dogs, and a lot of this and that. You don't get much ammo and this hurts the director's cut of this game as it becomes extremely hard at the point the jumping creatures that take off your head with one whack are introduced. I had to start over and just play the easy level I got so annoyed. The game play doesn't help as you walk slowly, and it is hard to shoot. The story is really the only thing that saves this one.
