One of the all-time greats

Resident Evil 2 is one of the strongest installments in the franchise.   Adding improved graphics, an unforgettable score, and suspense and horror unrivaled to this day, Resident Evil 2 still has people coming back.

The 'zapping' system in the game adds for in incredible amount of replay value, and gives the player that feeling that they're truly affecting the other characters in the game. 

While many survival/horror games are more about the horror than the survival, RE2 really forces the player to use their guns and ammo accordingly.  If the player fails to manage their inventory, he/she will find themselves with hordes of zombies and nothing but a knife.
