much more puzzle/exploration orientated than the RE games, which works out surprisingly well. combined with the modern facility setting - all feels right. although backtracking is made slightly difficult due to the level design (although fantastic) being less memorable than the mansion, police station, or even raccoon city's streets. great ass game with some neat mechanics.
Really deserves a full remake in the form of something like RE2. A lot of its ideas of stealth, sectioning off areas of the facility and enemies tracking your blood/damage; weren't fully able to be realized on PS1-level hardware. You can clean up the second half as well and perhaps give it more of a realized narrative purpose. The core components of a strong survival-action game are here.
