Was Resident Evil 2 the best resident evil game an survival horror game?

REmake is the best Resident Evil, Eternal Darkness is the best survival horror..no contest.

Captain_Lorelli

I second that. Third place would go to RE2, maybe.

[QUOTE="Darkslayer16"]

Am I the only one that liked 3 more then 2? Also REmake was better then 2 also imo.

finalfantasy94

Right here. I still highly enjoy 2 but I like 3 more.

As for best RE game in the context of survival horror, REmake takes the cake by a landslide. No RE game will come close to it.

basically you had a gun the thing ran outa ammo all the time, an like u were like always on edge

these new ones all just like timing events an like ur guns always gonna tons of ammo an its like a arcade game im not scared at all an like i feel like im just wrecking massives amounts of stuff an like just no dude this is survival this isn't omg i gotta be worried dude

u kno?

maybe im just nostaligic an like old games but dude there something very diff with restident evil 2 an like resident evil 4 an 5 i dunno what is but i see something in the gameplay diff

RE2 is the best RE, but RE remake for the GC would be the scariest. It's pretty easy going through RE2 now and days, I beat it a few weeks ago in an hour and 10 min.

yes

REmake easily.

Best Surivival Horror game not quite and the best RE is RE4.

[QUOTE="FrozenLiquid"] That's my personal fav. It's still easier than the Resident Evil 1 -> Code Veronica games, but it's offset by its incredible cerebral horror.FrozenLiquid

Hell yeah man. It's the only game where I actually had to take breaks from playing it. It freaked me out that much.

Oh my goooooood!:cry:

I remember that like it was yesterday. Found this youtube video as well.

Welcome back to Hell.

:twisted:

RE Remake on the cube was my personal favorite, but RE2 is great as well.

Nope RE4 was the best.

Resident Evil 4 is the greatest in the series, REmake is the greatest survival horror game ever.

Resident Evil games were never scary. Back then, they were just a bunch of overglorified point and click adventure games and nowadays they're just a bunch of overglorified TPSs.

REmake was much better as a Survival Horror game. RE2 was a great game, probably the best story in the series (if that's saying anything), but it was a bit too easy to be the best example of Survival Horror in the series.

Resident evil 2 is my favorite in the series. Resident evil 4 and 5 I would put under all the rest in the series. They're good but i would rather play, the best type of survival horror style.

Silent Hill 2 is the best horror game. I wouldn't call it survival though, because the fear of death isn't that scary in SH games.

Resident Evil 4 is the best survival horror game. That game is just pure perfection.

Silent hill 2

It was well done...I also liked the early silent hill titles. from the limited time i've had with anmesia: dark descent, it conveys the same desperate tone, and is scary as sh*t.

Nope that would go to REmake on GCN/Wii

REmake is the only survival horror game in the series, imo.

RE4 is and always will be the greatest game ever made. It's not really survival horror but that doesn't matter. The game is perfect every which way.

Master_ShakeXXX

Ignoring REmake since they had the opportunity to perfect survival horror, RE2 is the best in the series.

Resident Evil 4 is the best survival horror game.OB-47

How can a game without Survival Horror elements be the best Survival Horror game?

Silent Hill 2 is the best horror game. I wouldn't call it survival though, because the fear of death isn't that scary in SH games.

That brings back fond memories. I kind of forgotten that sound played such an important role in making SH3 so frightening. I wish more games today were like that. Dead Space does a great job with it's sound but the game it's self isn't really scary.

The one moment of SH3 that will always stand out in my mind is when you knocked on the bathroom stall door, walked away, and then the door slowly opened by it's self. That right there was enough to make me pause the game. You seldom see brilliance like that in video games anymore. My hat is off to Team Silent, one of the greatest developers out there.

[QUOTE="millerlight89"] Says SH 2 is not survival horror, yet RE4 is. :lol: millerlight89

That was a joke and mostly a criticsm of the survival horror term applied to it by some people. I still love the game though.

System Shock 2 is the best survival-horror game. That game had me on edge more than any RE or Silent Hill title.drinkerofjuice

I thought he fit in just fine.

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"]F*ck no.Jynxzor

[QUOTE="millerlight89"][QUOTE="soapandbubbles"] Thats what i use to think, then realized how shocking the gameplay is, you still can't move and his melee animations are so overblown sending enemies flying across half the land. If it wasn't for some great atmosphere and enemies...the game would've been overlooked. It does something well. but with all the ammo avaliable and a merchant...it's hard to take it seriously as a RESIDENT EVIL game, IMO. CLOUDsea

damn classics liked more then the new?

system wars knows their RE for sure

and Nemesis(...well toss up, I like Nemesis)jg4xchamp

[QUOTE="CLOUDsea"]

[QUOTE="millerlight89"] The merchant is so stupid and just out of place. It totally kills the atmospheremillerlight89

I thought he fit in just fine.

I'm not saying that it made logical sense, but the gameplay and story of RE4 are essentially one man taking on an army. A ridiculous arsenal at his disposal made sense in that context.

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"]and Nemesis(...well toss up, I like Nemesis)Jynxzor

The execution of Nemesis was great, but I liked Birkin better. Although Nemesis was arguably Birkin and Mr. X taken to the next level, it felt a bit "been there done that" to me, especially coming directly after RE2. Love RE3 though and would take "been there done that" over whatever Capcom is doing now. Although we did get Rachel in Revelations.
