REmake was the scariest RE game IMO.

Mine would have to be the first time I played RE2, I was playing the B scenario as Leon. I'd just solved the chariot wheel gear puzzle. Mr. X came crashing through the wall. o_o I grabbed the gear and ran out. Then he crashed through a wall again. o_o I nearly dropped the controller both times.

Well, since the first Resident Evil game I played was the Wii Version of Resident Evil 4, my perspective may be different.

The only one I can think of at the moment is how the classic RE games controlled. The second RE game I ever played was REmake, and I was so surprised at how the game controlled. I hated it at first. I was wondering if there was something wrong with my game. I soon learned that there wasn't anything wrong with it, and that it was only something that took some time to get use to. It's like the battle system of Chrono Trigger, there is a learning curve, but its a pretty short one and is actually easy to get use to. Once I got use to it, it became second nature to me. Now even if I haven't played REmake-3, or Silent Hill 2 for a long time, I can immediately get into it.

Plot wise, I would have to say Steve dying was my biggest surprise. This is because my first experience with the Code Veronica story was in the Darkside Chronicles. In that interpretation of the story, Steve is made more of a main character, and it felt unlikely that he would be killed off. I didn't even think of the possibility when playing.

Hopefully he's still alive, but I wouldn't count on it.

Another big shocker was that people didn't think RE5 was scary enough. Pffft. Okay, so the location wasn't that scary, but the actual enemies were. Yeah, maybe once you upgrade all of your guns and replay through the story it isn't too scary, but when you first start out with only a pistol (a weak one at that) some ammo, and a really awfully programmed Ai partner, that executioner and that first chainsaw majini are terrifying. Oh, and let's not forget that second encounter with that Uroborus prototype thing. Geezum. RE5 may not be scary like all of the previous games, but it's scary in a different way. And even if that weren't true, it's still really fun to play.

And if it counts, Mercenaries can be really scary when you have a high score but you're almost dead with a minuet left. Especially in the prison.

Oh hi Ravior, haven't seen you in a while

My 2 most shocking moments were...
A.I didn't expect to see a zombie vomit and kill me when I was 4.
B.I ran into a room to get to a supply crate and as I'm running back out there are 3 zombies chasing me,so I dodge everyone of them until...the door's lock is jammed.Safe to say I died.lol

Funniest RE moment,
I told my roomate that the crocs in RE5 could be killed with the machete.He believed me.lol

Mine was Wesker being a super villain in the original. I didn't have internet back in 98 when i was first playing it and i was like wtf? how could he do this!!!

After that I got smarter and kind of learned to always expect the unexpected with RE
