So, with the new RE7 out, and the game doing somewhat decently among the masses, I ask of /vr/ this...

Were games like "RE: Gun Survivor" and "Alien Resurrection" ahead of their time? Or just as flawed as when they came out? Can we look at them with a different viewpoint, having been through a decade of shooters when the FPS-on-console genre became more refined? How do they hold up, in comparison to platformers and RPG's from the era they were released?

I figure maybe we can get some sort've discussion going about how the developers vision may have been more successful given some refinement, or having not pioneered the field.

I don't know whether to praise this game or not
On one hand it's very inferior to the other games in every category, on the other the lack of save feature along with constant onslaught of T-103s and hunters make this most intense game in the series yet

It is kinda funny how you can dodge most enemies but there are so many of them it feels like true survival

Was it a proper Resident Evil game? No. Was it good? No. But damn if I didn't have a hell of a lot of fun playing it.

Underrated or not?

For what it's worth, I think it managed to nail the RE2/3 atmosphere, and I enjoyed the nonlinearity.

Discuss other RE/horror/ps1 games in general too.
