After all these years, Resident Evil 1 remake is still the most polished horror game ever made. The change to a more gothic styled Spencer Mansion really makes the game more scary, but even without that, the changes to gameplay increase it more so. The Crimson Heads' aggressive speed and ability to surprise left me so paranoid it even seeped it's way into other RE games. I don't trust any zombies to stay dead in other games now. That's not even taking into account the added Lisa Trevor subplot, the defensive items, the redone soundtrack and the monumental jump in graphic quality and art style. While other horror games may occasionally have better scares, or better action, (and certainly better performances) no horror game has the same consistent level of quality in all aspects. Yet another Mikami banger
