I don't care what it's rated. RE3 turned me off the series. It's not like the survival-horror genre was all the compelling to begin with. It was fresh on the PS1, before it was overkilled. I haven't bought RE4, and probably will never buy it. I don't expect to rent it either. But for what it's worth, I also despise the Silent Hill series too. Great ratings mean nothing in genres that have been rehashed a bazillion times. PEACE.
