    Good graphics and puzzles that have you searching the internet for walkthroughs. Only problem is a flashlight is considered a weapon.

    This is the IP that RE copied, the early AITD games invented Survival.horror. I've been replaying this awsome atmospheric peice of History and the GC version is fine..Not the best but definitely a must have in a collectors collection.

    Lack of originality aside, this is still a good and highly playable game.

    A bit like a B-Dreamcast game, and will probably secure a place in your library for that reason, so maybe you can skip the Eric Roberts movie after all.

    Superb graphics, challenging puzzles, morbid acts, and eerie noises will have you playing until the wee hours of the morning.
