Ryan: "With October 31st on its way I know some of you may be looking for that scary game to play alone, or with a bunch of friends. So, why not offer up my services and recommend the top 5 titles that will have you so scared you will want to turn off your gaming console and find the nearest light source of any kind."
Former Naughty Dog dev says Resident Evil 4 inspired Unchartted and even Gears of War, particularly the over-the-shoulder camera view.
It revolutionized third-person shooters, in a genius way that gives you full control of aiming.
No, I mean RE4. Like the whole snap to over-shoulder and precision aiming was what I meant.
I won’t deny Winback does pave the way in some respect. But it’s not the same at all.
I thought this was common knowledge. Resident Evil Revolutionised over the shoulder aiming in 3rd person shooters/action games
Influenced basically every third person action game made after it, GTA uses the over the shoulder perspective when shooting since the 4th installment, Red Dead Redemption 1 & 2 too and the Batman Arkham series has the over the shoulder perspective as the main camera throughout the whole game series.
Obviously there are a ton more examples but you get the point 🗿.
A large vinyl collection has been announced for Silent Hill 2 and looks great.
Very. I wonder how many people buy them who do mot own a record player just to have as a collectible.

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.
Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.
The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.
Heck yeah. Dead Space. That game is pretty scary, and also a helluva lot better than RE5.
For me its a tie between Silent Hill 1 & 2 at number one.
Props for Silent Hill 2, Siren: Blood Curse and Fatal Frame.
