This could be my favorite Resident Evil game. I think Capcom did an amazing job at both re-imaging and modernizing the Resident Evil franchise with this game. Back when this came out I was uncertain about the first person perspective but it works perfectly. The use of first person really reminds me of the old games with the fixed cameras as you can't see what's behind you and it can add a lot of tension when your being chased.

The opening hours with the Baker family might be the most tense hours of the whole series. The game may peak in it's early hours and some of it's scares may have worn of but I feel that's often the case with horror and I didn't feel this impacted my enjoyment plus the confidence you gain by the end of the game does make it very satisfying to play.

Overall I think this perfectly captures the feel of the old Resident Evil games bringing it back to its survival horror roots while also updating it.
