    The best Resident Evil 2 version ever, i ❤ it. The Dreamcast version is the best on Game content. The Game, Tofu, Hunk, Battle Mode, Kino, Data Bank and more.

    The original game is still the best.

    Excellent game whose argued control issues are easily forgiven given horrific movie style presentation and very intense and addictive gameplay. It begs for you to keep playing and find out what happens next like a bestselling mystery novel. The graphics are also smooth and are realistic enough to suck you in abd scare the living daylights out of you.

    By delivering awesome graphics and intense, fright-filled gameplay, RE2 makes for a scary romp you won't want to miss.
  2. 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.
  3. It's a great game to own, especially given its low retail price, but this version is not an essential purchase.
