Resident Evil HD I complained about the second half of this game a little in What Are You Currently Playing, but by the end I came around on it. I think I still would have preferred it stay more straight scary horror, but I can appreciate what it actually is even if it's not what I would have wanted from it. The fact that I can still play and enjoy it almost 25 years after it came out, having never played it before (in fact I bounced off the Gamecube version ~2005) so having no nostalgia really speaks well of how good the core of the game really is. I'm not going to grade this one because I would be unfairly dinging it for modern game quality of life stuff that nobody was doing yet when it came out, so instead I'll just say that I enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone who's interested in checking it out.

Resident Evil HD Okay, I see why this game is a classic, but goddamn it's dragging in the second half. It's not scary anymore, it's gotten away from the zombies and now it's all sharks and frogmen, and every night I start playing I think I'm gonna finish it, but then it turns out there's more. I still feel generally positive about the game, and I recognize that at its core it's over 20 years old so I'm trying to cut it a bit of slack, but goddamn, end already!
