Recommended Sep 8, 2026
One of the best survival horror games, if not the best, I've ever played. It's just so damn good! RE2 is an oldschool survival horror with limited resources, and limited inventory space you have to manage through the game (you can upgrade it later). Sure, this must be "annoying" for people who got used to inifinite space inventories in modern games, but this how survival horror used to be, back in the PS1 days. You just shouldn't go Max Payne and slaugher everyone, because you'll run out of ammo in no time. Just shoot the legs and run! The sounds, the story, the characters, everything is really top-notch. And those graphics, man... Oh, my god, it's just so-so beautiful! This game is an absolute 10/10 masterpiece. Everyone should play it, and experience it! PS: Prepare your diapers, because RE2 is scary as hell
