It was pretty spooky but I'm not a very big fan of what the game is going for. Splitting the areas up into levels takes away from the exploration and slow expansion of the map I liked so much in the two make, instead it just feels like a linear level. The initial introduction of Jack as a wandering enemy is really cool, and the few times he reappears are excellent, but he's generally more of an annoyance than an exciting feature. Again, the sheer size of the map in the two-make meant that Mr X showing up was kind of a big deal, it was an extra challenge on top of what you were already dealing with, instead of being a roadblock.

I do really love the focus on the story though, the new characters and scenes with them are consistently solid, keeping a lot of the old Resi charm while also managing to get past the inherent campiness of the source material. Visually it's really fantastic too (once you spend 20 minutes messing with the graphics settings), although I would have liked a more compelling enemy design than 'generic sludge monster'.

I think the big thing was, I didn't really enjoy playing the 3 hours I did. The story might end up drawing me back in but (from the looks of the walkthrough I had my toes firmly planted in while playing), I'm not interested in exploring another 5 haunted houses with the exact same structure and a new villain of the week.

In conclusion, too spooky 4 me.
