I have to say, i love the discussions and debates, but one of the core reasons i loved Resident evil was because it was also an adventure game. Ish. Ok i know survival horror was its actual element/genre but it always felt like to me the very first adventure game with puzzle solving that actually had ways to die, way to fight back, blah blah blah. Buuuut from the posts I've read, i guess nobody else felt that way about it =(. Damn.
