I've played them all. Finish all except for RECV. I reckon I was 1 hour away from completion but said "this game is a turd" and stop playing

im going to be the only one who agrees with CVX and pick RE0 as my fave. (unless i missed someone)
i really didnt get it the 1st time i played it. i had a difficult time and got frustrated 1/2 way through and put it down. when i decided to try again, i played it 3 times straight through, with a bunch of Leech Hunter on the side (i know CVX loves Leech Hunter like i do, good taste
)
the graphics, the music and the settings are all great fun. i really enjoy RE0.
but i really like all of the games in the series. RE3 being the only one i never finished multiple times (or once all the way through honestly, something i need to remedy).
REmake is awesome, but i find 0 better.
im really looking forward to RE4. it will be the first RE game that i actually by upon release (ive allays been a few months behind, or waited for a price drop). im really looking forward to it, and pretty damn sure i wont be dissapointed.

Hard to choose.
The first RE was good for its time, an original game for consoles and rarely seen on computers, plus I liked the realistic looks.
RE2 had the cool double scenario and extra missions, improved on everything, but the anime looks weren't as engaging and the gameplay started getting old already.
RE Nemesis got the cool real time path selection, but lost the double scenatio, gameplay was really old already, and lacked a story to hold my interest. First RE I didnt complete.
RE CVX had that embarassingly enjoable story and a refreshing improvement of the locations.
RE0 and REmake, I barely played. Bought out of duty but the poor excuse for gameplay, ridicolous puzzles, and terrible inventory system already exausthed my patience in past games.
Outbreaks and whatever else came out, I didn't buy.
Last, I have little interest in RE4.
Hard to get excited when so many similiar games have and are coming out, and this one doesn't look especially interesting.

I'll pick RE4, then the original RE (which is the only RE that I had finished). RE Remake and RE0 look good, but my memories are with the original RE.
I picked RE4 because it does not have the fixed view like the other REs, didn't spend enough time to be able to comment on the other REs (than just buying them, ha ha ha).

I like them all. If I had to pick I'd say CV for its story and action sequences. And of course the shock of
boy I'm glad I avoided spoilers for CV.

That's pretty cool.
I don't really like RE1 much because I played it after CV, and I couldn't stand the graphics or the bad voice acting (I don't find them very funny). It also felt too slow for me.
RE2 on the other hand I find vastly overrated. It had a quasi-interesting story, but it's very superficial and in some instances corny (CV and Zero are just as guilty but they have redeeming gameplay factors). On the gameplay front, it was marginally improved from RE1, but the second scenarios were poorly implemented since it was a modified version of scenario A. Add to that the relatively short length of one scenario.
RE3 and CV were great for me. The emphasis on action and path changing in RE3 and the length and production values of CV really impressed me, and I found both games very fun to play. CV by far also has the best music in the series.
Zero and REmake weren't that new in the end, but were better than any before it. I find the REmake totally necessary, because the original RE1 in my eyes is a poor game. Zero has that special touch for me, because of the great atmosphere and different array of enemies.
Outbreak 1 was alright, it was a good game but it needed work, but File 2 is pretty trashy. -_-

Wow. I'm gonna respectfully disagree with just about EVERYTHING you just said. But I guess its tough to appreciate the quality of an older game in this series when you go through it backwards. What were you playing back in 1998?
I am gonna get killed for this but although I played RE2 in the old days I didn't find it that great.
My favourite ones have been RE and RE:0. I found the story, locations and characters from 0 awesome and it ranks between my favourite games. I wish they had released it for the N64.

I've got mad love for RE2, CV, and REmake. It's hard to pick a favorite, really. RE3, RE0, and the original are all good games too, but didn't quite have the same appeal.

have to ask... what's good about RE CV?. I hated its lacklustre running - watching the camera slowly cruise over claire as she runs and thinking.. she's not running fast enough. Polygonal environmental meant a reduction in atmosphere which is BAD for a RE game. Leonardo DiCaprio clone steve was also the worst RE character bar (leech man)
Resident Evil 2 is my favorite, closely followed by Code Veronica. I really disliked Nemesis, and I have never played Outbreak or Zero. I liked the original well enough, but it's definitely not my fav. I only briefly played REmake on a rental. Basically, I'm tired of the whole franchise.
My first exposure to RE was the demo included with PC Gamer (around late 97?) I was intrigued, but since it ran like crap on my PC I bought the Playstation version instead, which got me hooked on the series. The original was a little too cheesy, but I loved the greater focus on action in the second game. I liked the second game so much that I eventually bought not only the PS version, but the PC and N64 versions. I enjoyed Code Veronica because I was a big DC fan, and at the time CV was a very impressive game (especially the real-time 3D environments).
