Pretty much, but as the GC showed it's hardly the strongest genre to build of nowadays. RE fans are RE fans and there will always be a larger market who dont like the difucelty that survival horrar brings. Yay mass-market.Shazenab

PS2 owned the Cube dude, in Surrvival Horror, if you were a SH (Survival Horror, or Silent Hill fan, you pick)fan you'd know it! It doesn't sound as if you are a fan of SH, so you're opinion is based off the TC, who is and has been Nintendo Biased.

Oh I prefer SH over RE actually- a lot more freaky. But, to say it was a game that sold the ps2 to most people (looking at sales) is a lie.

I'm not saying that, although I have two girlfriends that bought a PS2 for SH, that's beside the point. The point is the Topic :

"Did the GCN own Survival Horror Last Gen?"

It most certainly did not. 

It tried its hand at survival horror (Resident Evil remake was great btw) but the PS2 was the winner purely by the number of games of that type which came out. More games could and should have come out for the Xbox and Gamecube but didn't. Since Capcom broke its promise of releasing RE4 onto other formats, not releasing it on the Xbox was a crime.

Even though I was a strong Gamecube owner (140+ collection), I bought a second hand PS2 so I could play Silent Hill, Fatal Frame (Project Zero)...

If your question was which system had the best first party games last gen?, well you'll have a different answer.

GCN didn't even get Silent Hill or Fatal Frame, and those were the two best SH series of last gen. darkmistx

That's one of the reasons why I bought a PS2.

PS2 owned every genre last gen except FPSMorisUkunRasik

Is Resident Evil 4 truely survival horror? No it's not. As for saying all the other Resident Evil games are trash, are you talking about RE2 here? RE2 may have been on the PS but it's still a good game. RE3 and RECV(X) are also good games.

Playing Eternal Darkness and RE4 doesn't make anyone a survival horror expert you know.

I disagree with you guys

Id take the entire RE series + ED over any ps2 horror game. 

Nope. Silent Hill 3 is much scarier than the Resident Evil remake and Fatal Frame 2 is perhaps the most disturbing game ever concieved. Unless you count Big Rigs or Gods and Generals.

SH3 and SH4 were crap, Fatal frame crap, and Clock Tower mediocre.  So no PS2 fails. 

Eternal Darkness is the best game of the last generations. so yes.BioShockOwnz

Definately was one of the best (if not the best), but it wasn't a scary game.

Thats an excuse either the game is better or not! 

Having both a PS2 and a GC last gen, the GC was sorely outclassed in the survival horror genre.  RE4 was amazing and I won't even talk about the PS2 version.  RE:Remake was excellent too.  But I , having played and beaten every RE game, couldn't bring myself to enjoy RE0.  I just felt bitterly disappointed by it.  Eternal Darkness was alright, but I found it offered little other than the little crazy tricks it pulled.  Other than that the graphics weren't very good, the gameplay just okay and you had to fight what seemed like the same 4 enemies over and over.

The PS2 had the silent hill series, perfect dark, That camera game, the clock tower games, the game from Capcom with the girl and the wolf whcih I never played.  I'm sure I'm forgetting some, AND the PS2 was backwards compatible with all the PS1 games.

Hooray for rehashes like Silent Hill and Fatal Frame. Too bad out of all the games you listed, Silent Hill and RE4 are the only two games actually worth mentioning. Eternal Darkness was not even scary in the least, it was weaksauce imo.

All survival horror games fail to scare people since the developers dont know how to scare people, I think that is what will make Sadness excel this gen is that it will actually have a scare factor.

Sigh, why are sequels always shrugged off as 'rehashes'? Is it such a crime that the game is good and therefore warrants more of the same? Games can't always be 'fresh' or 'innovative' you know..
