I think it's well established by now that I hate the horror genre, and even worse; bad controls and game mechanics. Well, the Resident Evil series, known for pioneering the horror genre as well as it's old fixed-perspective tank controls, is being continually updated in more ways than one and a string of radically improved sequels, modern remakes, and enhanced rereleases have put the Metal Gear series to shame. I have begun playing the original series I've never before touched to see if the improvements manage to realize the survival shooter gameplay I know can be done justice.

Verdict for the REmake of Resident Evil 1? Certainly not as infuriating as it would be were I forced to endure the original's tank controls. The graphics are far and away better too. But the fixed-perspective still breaks my immersion and interferes, unforgivably, with the survival shooter aspect of the game. Combine that with a pitifully limited inventory space, a constant need to carry weapons, healing items, utility items, and key items, and an overall underwhelming gunplay kinesthetic and it's really not an enjoyable experience. Maybe fun to watch someone else play though.
