Capcom - PS2 - Resident Evil 4 —
Whenever I think of Survival-Horror as a genre, I recall memories of gritty graphics, horrid soundtracks and cheap sound bytes. Resident Evil 4 (aka REIV) promoptly put a bullet in that memory, killing it for good. My first comment when I started playing this PS2 icon was "Oh my God, CAPCOM finally did it!" I looked at my son, who was mesmerized by the color quality in the opening video (of course, it could also have been due to the fact that he was about 4 months old. Gotta love colors.) "They finally cleaned up the series."Gone are the days of blocky-pixelled zombies inching across the screen, Gone are the days of sluggish and frustrating (and completely unmodifiable) comtroller formats. All these have been replaced by sprinting infected "zombies" so detailed, the blood spray stains your character, and the controller style is so smooth, it feels like second nature to any video game pros.
If you can only pick out one game for your PS2, you had better make it this one. The beautiful scenes and awesome gameplay are only matched by the great story-writing and voice-acting.
