Is this actually any good? I've read mixed reviews.
If I bought it I wouldn't be playing it online, so is it worth buying for single player? I'm not bothered if it plays exactly like the old Resident Evil titles, because they're some of my favourite ever games.
And how about the sequel? Worth trying?

Yes it is very good. I have it can't wait for Resident evil 4. Do get File 2 suppose to ve much better zombie elephants,crocdiles and other creatures. Also online so get it. I might get it soon.
The scariest moment for me was the part where the hunters turn up, and I was pretty much shaking in fear from then on.
At the time I would have been about 10 and it scared the hell outta me, especially when you could hear one but couldn't see it. Wonder if they'll have the same effect this time round...

I still remember playing the original on my PS1 at night.
The console was connected through my hi-fi, so the sound was quite loud... and I had it plugged into an old 14-inch Phillips CM8833 Mk II monitor, so I was sat reasonably close.
I was wandering down the corridor, expecting to see huge spiders as I had in the magazine screenshots... when all of a sudden the zombie dogs crashed through the window.
I jumped so much I nearly hit my head on the ceiling, and I nearly shat myself. And with that I was hooked.
I was hooked from then on. I've always been a fan of horror/zombie movies, and with a few exceptions (Outbreak and the light-gun games), Resi's been a brilliant series.

I've just bought the original director's cut for PS1 off Ebay.
Helps to contain my excitement while I wait for Resident Evil 4 :-D

The reviews were pretty average for both File 1 and File 2.
I'm a big Resident Evil fan - even bought a Gamecube to play the remakes and Resi 0 - but even I didn't bother with these two games.
Can't wait for 4 and 5 though! :-)
