15 Resident Evil Games - Ranked From Worst To Best

4. Resident Evil

The beginning, the game that coined the term "Survival Horror" *cough* ignoring Alone in the Dark *cough*.

Of course, we all know, but to reaffirm everyone's knowledge, the S.T.A.R.S team investigate a forest and mansion on the outskirts of Raccoon City after a previous team had fallen out of communications. Depending on who you choose to play as, Chris or Jill, you will be trapped in the mansion with a certain combination of S.T.A.R.S members.

Resident Evil established many of the conventions we see years later. With the sense of claustrophobia, ammo paranoia, and jump scares galore, the first resident evil firmly made its mark on video gaming.

And yet, it's only number four.
