    This game series is one of my favourites! X3, Honestly Resident Evil 7 brings the whole series into an amazing new light after the mistakes they made with Resident Evil 6, It's worth playing if you are a fan of horror games :D

    I love this game with all my heart & I love it so much that I'm actually doing a Let's Play on the game myself.

    This game had promises, But the controls and gameplay wore it down. My grandma can run faster than this idiot protagonist does. Slow and dull.
    As for the story, it steals so much from most horror classics out there The Evil Dead (Decapitated hand and chainsaws) The RIng (Hairy black chicks crawling around) Halloween (Reappearing bad guys you never seem to manage to kill off).

    In the end i was bored of trying to kill off Ol´Jack after shooting him in the face more times than a 90´s John Woo film, setting him on fire, blow his brains out.. I was just fed up in the end. When he came lurking in the hallways again i just shut off the whole game and deleted it.. NO MORE:..
    It has all the gore and jumpscares you can crave, but it offers nothing new to even excite me at all.
    Money well wasted.

    PROs:
    - Gritty atmosphere
    - Jump scares

    CON´s
    - Plastic coated graphics
    - An exhausted genre in every way
    - Slow and dull controls.
    - Totally forgettable characters and plot

    I've never expected to play horror games, but Resident Evil 7: Biohazard changed my mind, and it even convinced me to like these games.

    The story is pretty much a dude trying to save a wife from a crazy family and infected beings, and it was fun connecting all the story pieces together as I was playing the game. Graphics are stunning on T.V, and is a slight downgrade on PSVR (which I played the majority of the time). Besides the not so good looking opening scene (outside daylight), the acting, character models, and gross flesh all make the environment tense and dark--perfect.

    Aiming in VR is much better, being low on resources showed me true survival, enemies are pretty challenging to kill, and the boss fights are really memorable. The only missteps are some levels felt a bit complicated (maybe just cause I'm not that good) and dragged out when solving the puzzles or finding the right objects, and for PSVR, the floating hands and the fade in transitions took me out a bit on immersion.

    Overall, RE7 is a top tier VR game and a really good game even without that. It embodies what a true great survival horror game should be.

    Uno de los mejores juegos de esta generación sin duda alguna que no es de 10 por la muy escasa duración del juego base y por la falta de cuidado en los pequeños detalle que marcan la diferencia.

The environment is unsettling and the sound adds a bunch more creepiness to the game. Combining these things with a great little story gives you an amazing game with an amazing scary atmosphere. It keeps suspense by giving pretty crappy guns and having you search every corner, door, and shelf for any ammunition or medical kits. Sometimes the game is calm but it never feels like it because you have no clue if there is a horrifying creature ariound the corner and when you do stumble across that creature it becomes a very tense situation. Even though it doesn't sound like a very good or fun time it truly is and is an amazing game that I 100% recommend you try. Expand

    Resident Evil 7 grounds itself in elements that made the original great while still indulging in a risky new shift in style that both helps and hurts the beloved formula in equal measure.

    `Cuidado´
    Lo primero que hay que tener en cuenta. Este no es un juego habitual de Resident Evil. Aquí nos adentramos en un mundo mucho más oscuro, realista y macabro. Irónicamente, es el juego de las saga que mas tiene similitud con su título `Resident Evil´ (Residente Malvado), es el mejor titulo posible para este paseo lleno de pesadilla y repugnancia.

    Recordemos que: Mientras en otros juegos de la franquicia, el personaje junto a un gran arsenal de armas, se adentra en una aventura de acción y suspenso en la que matas zombies y salvas el mundo....RE7 deja al lado todas las comodidades. La historia se basa en un hombre que va a buscar a su esposa desaparecida, y se topa en una casa llena de horrores, donde la supervivencia es la prioridad definitiva, mientras es acechado por una familia con insaciable sed de sangre.

    Es imposible evitar las comparaciones de este juego con P. T Silent Hills (2014), tanto en dirección de cámara, como jugabilidad y la forma exitosa de crear suspenso... Aunque a mi parecer, RE7 lo supera en todos y cada uno de esos aspectos. Este juego esta diseñado para sumergir al jugador en un estado de estrés extremo. Hay escenas horrendas de tortura, mutilación y daño psicológico hacia nuestro protagonista. Y no hay nada que se pueda hacer para saltar dichas escenas.
    Se puede descubrir un largo historial de referencias a los demás juegos de la saga, y películas de terror de los 70s y 80s. Siendo una de las mas notorias `Evil Dead´ De hecho si este juego hubiera seguido su propio universo sin depender de la saga Resident Evil, habría pertenecido sin dudas a la franquicia `Chainsaw texas Massacre´ , las similitudes que tiene con dicha saga van mas allá de un simple guiño.

    La primera mitad del juego es una perfecta mezcla de Horror psicológico, Gore extremo, realismo y momentos perturbadores que son dignos de una calificación NC-17. Sin embargo la calidad del juego baja considerablemente cuando se convierte de repente en un producto común de la saga Resident Evil. Entonces, el drama psicológico con el que empezó esta entrega, termina convirtiéndose en un juego de Acción, Sci-Fi, y survial horror típico de la saga, una verdadera decepción que no hayan decidido concluir de la forma tan innovadora y excelente en la que iniciaron. Este tipo de giros pueden ser peligrosos ya que son los que arruinan juegos enteros, aunque por suerte, este no fue el caso en su totalidad.

    En resumen. Es un titulo plenamente dirigido hacia un publico adulto y a los fans del horror, el cual ofrece la oportunidad de vivir una experiencia en el mundo de Resident Evil, desde los ojos de la victima. Éste fácilmente habría sido el mejor juego de toda la saga, si hubieran mantenido un solo rumbo en la narrativa, dirección y decisiones de personajes. Su alto nivel de contenido sádico, inmoral y explicito deja a juegos como Manhunt en pañales. Único, visceral y gran homenaje al genero de horror extremo.

    Resident Evil 7 takes the series back to its roots while completely reinventing the series. From the creepy atmosphere and psychological tension to the pitch perfect jump scares it's a master class in horror but play it with a VR helmet and it's on a whole different level! A real return to form, perhaps the scariest RE game yet!

    I was never a fan of Resi before and the last game i played was 10 years ago. This was a awesome new take on the franchise with the First person perspective. The game play is pretty slow but that feeds into the atmosphere of the game. There are plenty of scares early on which was the highlight of the game for me. Defiantly worth a play through

    Resident Evil 7 VR has been one of the most horrifying video game experiences of my life. I just loved the setting, characters and game-play so much (especially in VR, wow!), The First Person perspective just fits perfectly in my opinion, it retained the feel of classic RE while also modernizing it, for the first time in a long time I found a RE game scary again!

    It also checks the box that the best REs do for me which is feeling like one day I could just go "Why don't I do a run of RE (insert number here)", It's a game I don't really get tired of, like my other favorite Resident Evil games.

    Thought the game was allot of fun, woulda liked more world exploration, and maybe a little bit longer, with some more weapons and customization, and in VR muh Gawd it scary, great twist on the RE style going to first person I really enjoyed it, loads of fun, gore, and scares, fun for the whole family.

Also really hated how it was first person view - this keeps you from really getting to know the protagonist, and it seemed more like a gimmick to generate more PS VR consoles. Also, there is almost zero mention of previous titles in this game, like nothing about Raccoon City or anything resident evil - related. If this game didn’t have a title, very few people would even know this was a Resident Evil game! Also not a big fan of leaving 2 of the biggest boss battles as extra DLCs - they should have just included all this in the base game! Also, way too many stealth sections and those get old quick, and are not at all enjoyable. I’m glad Capcom got things right with the RE 2 remake - now that is a quality game! I enjoyed RE 6 waaay better than 7. This is a renter and nothing more. Expand
