RE was a fun game, pity about the ham voice acting, though.

I remember my mate and me shitting bricks when that first zombied doberman leaps through the window.

After that though, both RE and RE2 ceased to scare. You get very used to the formula and after a while it definitely loses the tension that you felt at the beginning of the original.

RE2 definitely lost the scare factor... it was far too "in-yer-face" to be scary.

Still, great games with good stories, minus the lame acting.

I've kind of "evolved" from that kind of game, now though... I just can't pay £45 for a game that I'll be shelving in 2-3 weeks. The replay value of RE and its peers is slim (same game, slighlty different route, or "whooooo" a different skin!).
