1. Resident Evil 2 (and I can include RE2 Remake as well even though I think the fixed camera angle, prerendered background, tank control RE games are still better)
2. Resident Evil (Including the Director's Cut and the Gamecube Remake)
3. Resident Evil 3 (and also the Remake, which was a fantastic game but sadly a bit too short. In terms of gameplay fun and how it controls it is actually my favorite Capcom game)
4. Devil May Cry
5. Resident Evil Code Veronica X
6. Dino Crisis
7. Super Street Fighter II (and all their versions)
8. Resident Evil 0 (Gets way too much hate and the essence is still there even though it has some flaws. Especially on Gamecube where the hardware was a problem)
9. Resident Evil 4 (yes it is a decent game, but I lost more than I gained. Sorry not sorry, but I loved the old fixed camera games too much. Still a very influential game, but I think it is overrated)
10. Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts
Fantastic post.
By the way, all the Resident Evil 0 mentions are warming my heart
Game is actually really good. It has a couple of big missteps that prevent it from being a bona fide masterpiece:
- Hookshot
- Rebecca's actions, abilities, and characterization in RE 0 make no sense in the continuity for how her character is in RE1.
- Game is not 2-player coop would would be fantastic
- Boss battles are good but the visual boss design sucks. The "giant version of [insert animal here]" gets old quick
But other than that, the weapons are great, the partner zapping system is great, the game has fantastic pace, it looks gorgeous (better than REmake, actually) and has a great atmosphere and score.
