Resident Evil (1996)

The first part of the Resident is an immortal classic and one of the progenitors of the horror genre.

Now, of course, this game looks extremely ugly, inconvenient, etc., but in 1996 it was a real standard.

Resident Evil was originally intended to be like Doom, but with puzzles, but then Capcom looked at Alone in the Dark and decided to make a game with a fixed camera. This decision turned out to be fatal, and thanks to it there was a breakthrough in the industry, in particular in horror.

After almost 30 years, it’s impossible to play this because of terrible controls, unpleasant, albeit atmospheric graphics, ancient sound, etc. As a human being, you can play this game thanks to the official remake-remaster, which was created back in 2002, but now the review is not about it, so okay.

I played Resident 1 on PS 1 for the first time in 2006 when I was 13 years old. This game brought me both joy and sorrow at the same time! The joy is that I felt immersive as I wandered through the luxurious rooms of the mansion and beat the game on all difficulties, and the sorrow is that I was afraid of everything in this game: Especially the falling ceiling that crushed to death a giant snake that even a grenade launcher and a magnum can barely handle it! And the main fear in the game is death! Which is why I had nightmares, and when I turned 17, I stopped being afraid of playing Resident! There were many friends in their youth who were interested in living in this mansion when it was cleared of biological weapons created by the Umbrella corporation!
