RE can still be scary. There were elements of 4 that were scary. Any of you guys play Code Veronica? What about Silent Hill, is that still scary?
I played a little Code: Veronica. It was definitely scarier and more like RE1+2 than 3. Haven’t played a Silent Hill since 4, though. I don’t like some of the decisions going into the new, HD ones, although occasionally I think about trying Shattered Memories.
