Inn a big RE fan but only for consoles, have never played them on a pc.

But I have played all of them more than once and RE4 Ive played at least 4 times, Its my absolute favorite replacing nemisisRE3 ( I loved that you could make your own ammo in nemesis )There are 2 RE4's though, one is for Dreamcast and completely different than the one for gamecube/PS3. But I really enjoyed that too.
And as much as I loved the first 3 when I try to go back to play them now after the action packed 4, they just seem to slow.

As for 5....well took me a bit to get into it and it was a fair play but not as good in my opinion. and having a partner like that was a pain, but what seemed to work best for me was to give her the machine gun and let her at it because we seemed to pick up a to of ammo for it.
Still, The game is well worth a play if your an RE fan.

Thanks, guys/gurus Guess RE probably isn't for me. I've been stumbing around in Tomb Raider Anniversary for weeks but I haven't had another new game in months. So I'll just keep playing my old favorites - Vampire Redemption, Bloodlines, Undying, M&M6 & 7, Gothic 1&2. TR has made me want to play Indy & the Infernal Machine again, at least until something comes out that looks good. Heard there's going to be a Gothic 4. YAY!

Code: Veronica (or Code: Veronica X, as the "enhanced" PS2 version was called) is a definite fave of mine, if for no other reason than it had Claire Redfield. (And that whole Alfred...business aside.) Calling it "the other RE4" would get confusing in a hurry, though.

Nemesis was a real challenge, and gunpowder-mixing a cool quirk - did you ever complete Mercenaries mode with Nicholai (the guy with only the knife), Gamer? That was a doozy.

Barb, you've probably spotted that other thread, but there's always Saw if you're looking for something (vaguely) SH-ish. Though honestly, it's a pretty mediocre to average effort, and only likely to appeal to rampant survival-horror/horror-film fans.

Thats it! Code Veronica!
I couldnt think of it for anything and Im sure I still have it even though the Dreamcast bit the dust.

No Ive never done the mercenary mode, Im just not good enough. But my sons have and my oldest unlocked everything for RE4. Though Ive tried I just cant play in professional/hard mode mode, my hands just cant handle it and ache to much. But I manage fairly well in normal mode.

I have to say the RE series are about the only games I can play more than once.

It's funny that someone mentioned Tomb Raider here, because there is actually a part in RE5, where you have to turn a lever to fall to the level beneath you (I think it's like a cave), and repeat this process 3 times or more. The funny part is that the levers and the area instantly reminds you of Tomb Raider and when I went in there I said "darn, they've turn it into Tomb Raider. Where is the world going?"
