15 Best PS1 & PS2 Survival Horror Video Games
1. Resident Evil 3
Whilst the second game in the series is worthy of the attention, let us not forget how good Jill Valentine's return is either. Running almost parallel to the escapades of Claire and Leon, RE3 follows the heroine of the first game as she attempts to flee the ill-fated city as well.
Featuring tweaked locales of the second game, including the RCPD and surrounding areas, as well as new mechanics like the about turn and gunpowder mixing.
Then there's the Nemesis. On his quest to eliminate any remaining members of STARS, the Nemesis was relentless in his mission to stop Jill.
The series being famous for evading zombies by moving rooms (through convenient door loading areas), the tentacled terror blew minds and sphincters alike by bursting through doors and windows in certain areas. It was a mechanic that we're used to by now, but at the time it was terrifying to think you'd gotten away in relative safety, only to have him catch up to in the next room.
Given the fervour and praise the RE2 recent release has had, it seems that Capcom are looking to capitalise on that and follow up with a remake of RE3 Nemesis too. Here's hoping.
