Played through the regular version of the game for the first time. It's my own doing due to prior association but I kinda missed the soundtrack and altered camera angles from the dualshock version. When you get past the really messy tracks like the basement theme there's some pretty solid ones. I forgot how ruthless some of the enemies can be in terms of stunlock and invincibility frames. The hunters and chimeras really don't play around. :(... Read More

Positive points

Rewarding map design and exploration.
Replay value.
Negative points
Some enemies are iffy behavior wise.

Storyline

In July 24, 1998, when a series of bizarre murders occur on the outskirts of the Midwestern town of Raccoon City, the Raccoon City Police Department's S.T.A.R.S. team are assigned to investigate. After contact with Bravo Team is lost, Alpha Team is sent to investigate their disappearance. Alpha Team locates Bravo Team's crashed helicopter and land at the site, where they are suddenly attacked by a pack of monstrous dogs, killing one of the team's members. After Alpha Team's helicopter pilot, Brad Vickers, panics and takes off alone, the remaining members of the team (Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, Albert Wesker and Barry Burton) are forced to seek refuge in a nearby abandoned mansion. It soon becomes very clear that it isn't just any mansion, but a hellish place where the undead walk the corridors and other horrors are lurking in the darkness, waiting to eat some heads.
