You and your team run for shelter in a creepy old mansion. Your team is sent in to investigate and is quickly set upon by hideous creatures. It all starts out when the special tactics and rescue squad (S.T.A.R.S.) vanishes on a mission to investigate a town recently plagued by disappearances and bizarre deaths. The story unfolds in a way that seems more like a Hollywood script than the storyline of a game. But how good is Resident Evil compared with today's games? Even though it's been nearly two years, Resident Evil still holds up and is now not only one of the best games for the PlayStation, it is one of the best for the Saturn. It was considered an instant classic by most critics, including myself. If you don't already know it, Resident Evil is an action/puzzle horror game that was originally released in February 1996 for the Sony PlayStation.
