Dad got RE6 about a week ago, and I figured I'd watch him play the first bit of the game. It looked... a lot different than I expected. Definitely more compelling than RE5, though.
Anyways, after this I realized, "Oh hey, I don't even remember the damn storyline of the series," because the last time I even played a Resident Evil game all the way through I was roughly 12. I tried playing through RE5 when it came out, but I just couldn't do it.
SO. I spent the last week replaying the first few in the series. The psx versions, not any of the remakes. (Wait, were any of them remade other than the first one? I recall hearing something about the 2nd one being remade recently, or at least it's being seriously considered.) First one was just as hilariously bad as I remember it being. RE2 though... was fantastic. It's always been my favourite in the series, but now I know why. I was actually going to talk about it in the RE thread, but it hasn't been posted in for a while now and I doubt it'll spawn much conversation.
I'm having a hard time getting myself to play Nemesis now because I know none of the other games even came close to being as good as RE2 from my perspective.
