    Capcom's Dreamcast Evil looks a lot smoother than the PSOne version does, and the character and creature models appear to be as gorgeous as the ones featured on the PC edition.

    By delivering awesome graphics and intense, fright-filled gameplay, RE2 makes for a scary romp you won't want to miss.

    Gameplay seems to be getting old as each Resident Evil incarnation is much more of the same. Loads of extra modes and a gallery provide excellent replayability.

    If you're new to the series, this is arguably the best Resident Evil game ever made.

    At just $19.99 and probably the most engrossing story of the Resident Evil series, neither veterans nor newbies should miss RE2.

    It's a great game to own, especially given its low retail price, but this version is not an essential purchase.
