Asked “sell me on your favorite game” to a group of friends, they said it made for a great discussion, so maybe copying it to here might make a nice discussion too.

    Resident Evil 4 (GameCube) revolutionized modern horror with a 3rd-person, over-the-shoulder camera, a memorable storyline that expanded the lore of the franchise with new and returning characters, and graphics that pushed the console to its limits. Its main critique was the action-oriented gameplay, with long stretches of gun-fights, but I’ve found plenty of moments that had me shivering from survival horror.

      I got my hands on the recent remaster and it was a barrel of fun. Idk how well the horror translated from the original, but I couldn’t put the controller down until 3 a.m. the first time I launched it. Also: Steam version worked out of the box on Arch, no fiddling.
