#89 Resident Evil: Deadly Silence (Nintendo DS, 2006)

Whoooa! This post is dangerous! Resident Evil was a revolutionary game when it came out. It's really powerful, especially against living things. It was almost a Jill Sandwich, and came loaded with never-before seen features, such as Chris's blood, a dining room, the Master of Unlocking, and terrible demons... Ouch!

It's the first game in a series that I did not get into until 10 years after the release of the original game when I picked up a clearance-priced copy of the DS version. The REmake for GameCube is technically the "better" and more polished game, but the 1996 original is the number one camp game of all time, and the Nintendo DS remaster has a number of nice little quality of life improvements, notably a persistentmap on the second screen, and the ability to skip the grating room transitions. Now, let's get back to searching for the lost captain and Chris, shall we?

I haven't even mentioned Barry Burton yet.



Barry's such a fool. He'll be under the control of Umbrella forever. But he's also so optimistic, and a total badass who is never afraid to ask, "What is this?" While most of the other voice actors phoned in their lines, Barry did everything he could to ham things up in the best way possible.

I know what you're probably thinking. How can a game get ranked that highly on camp alone? Yeah, I thought about that too. Perhaps that was the most important part. But just take a look at THIS! It was more than just jump scares and cheesy dialogue. Resident Evil also delivered a batch of innovations to mainstream horror games, and used limited inventory and fixed camera perspective to really amp up the tension. To this day, I still feel incredibly anxious around the Chimera enemies, and I have beaten the game countless times.

Lost courage already? That's not like you. Experience one of the best video game scenes of all time:

What do you think of it? Don't be upset. All weak people exist to be eaten.
