I was a complete RE n00b - I had only played bits and pieces of the second and the fourth one. So RE7 is the first one I've properly played through - and I enjoyed it so much, I'm thinking of going back to the earlier entries.
Question - are they considered hard? Cause I found RE7 just the right amount of challenge.
The Original PS1 version of RE was ridiculously hard, you were constantly short on ammo and had to run past everything, it didn't help that the controls weren't great. They fixed all that with remakes and such though. RE2 was easier but still a challenge and they haven't remade that as far as I'm aware? RE3 was REALLY easy, I was so disappointed. Code Veronica was a good challenge from what I remember, I only played the Dreamcast original, not the PS2 remake. I've never actually played through all of RE4
but I have it on my Xbox ready. RE5 was pretty easy and there were no real puzzles at all, was fun playing with a friend (and kinda needed as Sheva was terrible when controlled by AI). Not played all of RE6 but it wasn't very well received.
There's also a whole host of other spin off games but not really played them so can't comment.
Really need to get around to Resi 7, it sounds really promising. Wasn't a big fan of the direction they went with 5&6. One of my favourites of the series is Code Veronica, not heard anyone really mention it over the last few pages. I don't think that many people played it compared to most of the rest of the series. I got it on the Dreamcast when it came out and it sucked me in, really great game.
But yea, I'll finish FFXV then try and get to Resi 7.
Love RE and have played most of its games, except that one - hope to fix that soon
Yea, totally get Code Veronica, it's probably my favourite after RE2! Don't think I can get it on the Xbox, which sucks
as I'd like to play it again.
